What is General Dentistry?
General dentistry focuses on the everyday care and maintenance of your teeth and gums. It’s about preventing problems where possible, identifying issues early and providing treatment that protects both the health and function of your smile.
Hygiene Care
Professional hygiene appointments play an important role in maintaining healthy teeth and gums.
Our hygienists work with you to remove plaque and tartar build-up, helping to prevent gum disease and keep your mouth feeling clean and healthy.
What to expect
A thorough clean to remove plaque and tartar
Advice tailored to your oral health and daily routine
Support in maintaining healthy gums long-term
Crowns
A dental crown fits over a damaged or weakened tooth, restoring its strength, shape and appearance.
Crowns are often recommended when a tooth can no longer be supported by a filling alone, helping to protect it from further damage while maintaining a natural look.
When might a crown be needed?
To protect a weakened or cracked tooth
Following root canal treatment
To restore a heavily filled tooth
To improve the shape or appearance of a tooth
Bridges
A dental bridge is a fixed solution used to replace one or more missing teeth.
It works by anchoring to the teeth on either side of the gap, restoring both the appearance and function of your smile.
Why consider a bridge?
To restore your ability to chew comfortably
To maintain the natural position of surrounding teeth
To improve the balance and appearance of your smile
Most patients benefit from a check-up every six months, although we may recommend a schedule tailored to your needs.
They help prevent gum disease, remove plaque build-up and support your long-term oral health.
With good care and regular check-ups, crowns and bridges can last for many years.
