Services
General Dentistry
We provide comprehensive dental examinations, preventive care, and restorative treatments including fillings, extractions, and root canal therapy. Our experienced dentists use modern diagnostic tools to detect issues early, ensuring minimal intervention. Patients benefit from personalized oral hygiene advice and regular check-ups to maintain optimal dental health.
Dental Implants
Our implant services restore missing teeth with titanium fixtures that integrate naturally with your jawbone. The process includes detailed planning using 3D imaging and guided surgery for precise placement. Patients receive durable, aesthetically pleasing replacements that function like natural teeth, improving both appearance and oral functionality.
Facial Aesthetics
Dr Julia Shacklock offers injectable treatments to reduce facial lines and enhance features using licensed medical-grade products. Services include Botox for dynamic wrinkles and hyaluronic acid fillers for volume restoration. All treatments follow strict medical protocols with thorough consultation to ensure natural-looking results and patient safety.
Orthodontics
We provide fixed and removable orthodontic appliances for children and adults, including traditional metal braces and discreet clear aligners. Treatment plans address misalignment, bite issues, and spacing problems. Our dentists collaborate with specialists to deliver functional improvements and enhanced smiles through gradual, controlled tooth movement.
Teeth Whitening
Professional home bleaching kits use custom trays and medical-grade gel to lighten tooth enamel safely. We assess suitability before treatment to address intrinsic and extrinsic stains. Patients achieve noticeable results in 2-4 weeks, with aftercare guidance to maintain their brighter smile through dietary and hygiene adjustments.
