Checkup

During your regular dental check-up, we carefully examine the health of your head and neck, including your lymph nodes, joints, soft tissues, and facial and chewing muscles. We also assess all areas inside your mouth, from your lips to the back of your throat, checking the health of your teeth and gums. Detecting early signs of disease and decay is crucial for maintaining good oral health.

Gum Disease Treatment/Hygiene

Keeping your mouth clean is important to avoid gum disease and tooth decay. Regular cleaning around your teeth apart from brushing and flossing is essential to provide a clean, healthy oral environment. We ensure that your teeth and gums stay healthy as it is the most important aspect of dentistry.

Root Canal

When a tooth’s nerve is damaged by a crack or cavity, allowing infection to enter, a root canal treatment may be necessary. During this procedure, the infected soft tissue inside the tooth is completely removed to prevent further damage or decay. Our skilled dentists strive to make the process as painless and stress-free as possible for you.

Extractions/Oral Surgery

If your tooth is severely infected or decayed beyond repair, extraction may be necessary to preserve the health of neighbouring teeth. Our Westhill Dartford dentist perform this procedure painlessly, with the option of anaesthesia for your comfort.

Teeth Grinding

Teeth grinding, also known as bruxism, is often associated with stress or anxiety. There are steps you can take to alleviate it, and dentists offer treatments for it too. Teeth grinding is prevalent among children and teenagers, especially while sleeping. While mild cases may not need immediate attention, frequent grinding can lead to jaw issues, headaches, and tooth damage if left untreated.

Sports Guard

Sports guards shield your teeth and gums during sports by using flexible material to cushion against impact. They also provide protection for your jaws, lips, tongue, and cheeks from injuries. These guards are custom-made from impressions of your teeth, ensuring a precise fit and fabricated using durable acrylic material in a laboratory.

Dentures

Dentures are removable artificial teeth typically made of acrylic (plastic), nylon, or metal. They are designed to fit securely over the gums, replacing missing teeth and preventing issues that can arise from gaps. Gaps from missing teeth can lead to difficulties with eating and speaking, and neighbouring teeth may shift out of position over time.

Tooth-coloured Fillings

A common dental procedure done by general dentists is a filling, often used to treat cavities. The dentist removes decay from the tooth and fills the gap to prevent more decay. We use high-quality white fillings that match your smile.

Our focus is on prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of a wide range of conditions, disorders, and diseases that can affect your teeth and gums. Here’s how we can help you keep your smile healthy and bright:

Preventative Dentistry: Preventative care is the cornerstone of good oral health. Our services include regular check-ups, cleanings, and advice on maintaining proper dental hygiene. We recommend routine visits to catch potential issues early and to keep your teeth and gums in the best possible condition.

Hygiene Visits: Regular hygiene visits are essential for removing plaque and tartar that can build up even with good at-home care. Our professional cleanings help prevent cavities, gum disease, and other dental problems, leaving your mouth feeling fresh and healthy.

Regular Check-Ups: We recommend that you visit us for regular check-ups, which sometimes include x-rays. These visits allow us to detect and treat decay, gum disease, and other issues before they become more serious. Early detection is key to maintaining long-term oral health.

Emergency Dental Care: We understand that dental emergencies can happen at any time. That’s why we aim to see our registered emergency patients within 24 hours. If you experience a dental emergency, please contact our practice early in the morning to ensure you receive timely care.
