We provide most aspects of dental care with the exception of some specialist surgery, which will be referred to specialist centres as necessary. Home visits: we are very pleased to provide this service privately. Speech therapy for children complement an extensive range of preventive, orthodontic, restorative and cosmetic work. Endodontic referrals are accepted from other practices. Four hygienists offer full-time preventive care.

We often use bridges to replace missing teeth, without you needing to wear a denture. They are more expensive than a denture and to calculate the fee we count the number of retainers (supporting teeth) which are a bit like crowns, together with the number of pontics (bridged teeth). Each unit costs from £500. The lower priced system is conventionally manufactured, while the dearer systems use lower fusing porcelains and finer gold, to give a lower wear rate and an even better appearance. However, to be successful we need one or two good roots to work with. Under Denplan, and following trauma, these are often free of charge.

Implants allow a single tooth to be put back in the bone. Do ask if you want to know more.
