A dentist in Teddington helping you achieve dental fitness
It can be said that the state of your teeth and gums indicates your physical health, because your mouth is the gateway into your body. Helping you to achieve and maintain dental health is our primary aim and the earlier we can start on this process the better for all. Education on the proper dental hygiene routine is part of our preventive dentistry programme.
Bring your children early
As a responsible and caring dentist in Teddington we encourage our patients to bring their children into the surgery when they are as young as one year old. You can bring your children with you when you attend an appointment, this allows them to experience the surgical environment. When it comes to their own first appointment they will already feel comfortable in the familiar surroundings that they experienced when visiting with you on your dental check-ups. We can help educate them on the correct hygiene routines and also examine them to see if there are any problems that may occur later. The work we all put in at this early stage will help your children to achieve that dental fitness that we strive to realise in our patients.
General dentistry
Dealing over many years as a dentist in Teddington we are aware that some patients are apprehensive about going to the dentist and all our staff are trained to make you feel as relaxed and comfortable as possible. We offer emergency dental care if you are unfortunate enough to find yourself suffering as a result of an accident and you can be assured that we are always here for you.
Replacing missing teeth
Our dentist in Teddington can offer you a range of treatments if you have lost teeth, either as a result of decay or accident. We can provide bridges, dentures and dental implants to get you back to being able to eat and drink. Dental implants are fast becoming the go-to procedure to replace missing teeth, because they mimic natural teeth with a post which acts as the root. Dental implants provide a solid and stable base in the same way as your normal teeth. They can be used to replace a single tooth, multiple teeth or your entire mouthful of teeth.
Cosmetic dentistry
Our dentist believes that if you have crooked or badly spaced teeth, overbites or underbites we can correct this for you with the array of modern appliances at our disposal.
Braces used to be the preserve of children decades ago and the uncomfortable looking metal braces used then have seen a transformation into a far more effective and comfortable appliance. In addition a plethora of braces for a variety of conditions are available to us which are also comfortable and less visible. Aligners have also been created which are made of a clear dental material and which are worn much like a gum shield. These aligners are produced in a series, each with its own orientation. Each ‘tray’ as they are called is worn for about a month at a time before the next one is fitted. Each moves your teeth gradually to the desired location resulting in lovely straight teeth.
Your dental wellbeing is our passion
For us there is no greater reward than seeing the pleasure radiating from your face when you experience relief after we have treated you. You may have been suffering from pain, a missing tooth or crooked teeth, but for us the true reward of our work is your satisfaction and joy. To see you produce a radiant, warm and confident smile after possibly arriving feeling depressed, is for us the reason why we come to work every day!
