General Dentistry

Check-ups

During a check up, the Dentist will look at all of your teeth and check all aspects of your oral health. They will then advise of any treatment that would need to be carried out.

X-Rays

X-rays are taken so the Dentist can see aspects of your teeth that are not visible by just looking in your mouth. This helps to diagnose any problems you may have with your teeth.

Root Canal Therapy

Root Canal Therapy is a permanent treatment to the root of a tooth to treat or prevent tooth ache or an abscess. It is generally not painful even on a tooth which is causing pain beforehand.

Bridges

Bridges are used to ‘bridge the gap’ in the mouth where teeth are missing. There are different types of bridges, which the Dentist will discuss with you if one is needed. Bridges are made in a laboratory and fitted by the Dentist.

Fissure Sealants

Fissure sealants are mostly provided to children. The sealant seals the grooves on the chewing surface of teeth if they are particularly deep. This helps prevent the tooth from decaying and makes it easier to keep the chewing surface clean.
