Orthodontic treatment
Orthodontics is the branch of dentistry concerned with the growth of the face, the development of the bite (occlusion) and the prevention and correction of bite problems. In the growing child, orthodontists also aim to harness and modify growth to improve the bite and facial appearance.
It is often thought orthodontic treatment can only be carried out in young people but treatment can, in most cases, also be undertaken very successfully for adults.

Tooth whitening
We offer tooth whitening systems.
Tooth whitening is a great way to brighten up your smile or improve the look of stained or discoloured teeth, and as specialists in cosmetic dentistry we offer a range of professional whitening treatments. For instance, you can wear a mouth guard filled with whitening gel for a few hours each day, until your teeth lighten, or have light-activated whitening gel applied directly to your teeth at the practice. We’d be happy to discuss the options with you anytime.

Restoration Treatments
Restorative treatments are used to correct the effects of dental problems such as tooth decay or gum disease. We offer a full range of restorative treatments, most of which are available to NHS and private patients. Wherever possible, we give our patients the help and advice they need to prevent oral problems of course. To find out how to keep your teeth and gums healthy please feel free to talk to your dentist or our hygienist.
