Mouth Cancer Screening

Mouth cancer is a malignant growth which can occur in any part of the mouth, including the tongue, lips and throat. Mouth cancers have a higher proportion of deaths per number of cases than breast cancer, cervical cancer or skin melanoma. Visit your dentist at once if you notice any abnormal problems or are not sure. Regular dental checkups allow early detection!

Mouth Cancer Foundation  

Mouth Cancer Foundation
The MCF charity web site aims to help patients and carers find free information on mouth cancers easily. It provides direct links to the relevant sections of existing cancer sites and includes patient experiences as well as an online support group.

Dentist for Children

We offer a range of private treatments for children. We believe it is important to instil good values for caring for oral health from any early age. Our practice offers preventative treatment for children in the form of fissure sealants. Sealants are a painless and safe way of protecting teeth from decay. When required we make properly fitting sportsguards to prevent injury whilst playing sport.

Dentist for Nervous Patients

Some patients may have fears about certain areas of treatment. Dental techniques have improved so much over the last few years, that modern dental treatment may now be completely painless.

Our dentist will help alleviate your fears, and make your visit to us as comfortable as possible.

New and modern techniques allow us to give you treatment with minimal intervention. Modern dentistry is aimed at prevention thus reducing the amount of treatment needed.

At central dental each procedure is explained and discussed with the patient. We ensure that all patients are allowed control during treatment, and are encouraged to raise a hand to alert us to stop at any time during a procedure should they wish to for any reason.

Referrals

We have access to some excellent specialist services. We do referrals for Orthodontics, Implantology, Oral surgery and Periodontics.

Wishing for the Perfect Smile

First impressions count and your smile is very important. Wishing for the perfect smile in time for your date, job interview, wedding, social reunion or business meeting? The appearance of your teeth determine a lot about you in terms of your outlook on life, how you smile, how friendly you seem, and how clean you appear. Having a beautiful smile with white, straight teeth is what cosmetic dentistry is all about. Invest in your smile, feel great about yourself, be happier and look fantastic!

What is a Cosmetic Dentist?

Cosmetic dentistry is dental art to a dentist. A cosmetic dentist is an artist wishing to aesthetically improve your teeth to make you feel and look attractive, boost your confidence to smile and get the most out of life. Most if not all dentists provide cosmetic dental treatments so the Hollywood Smile is now available to everyone not just celebrities.

What is a Smile Makeover?

A smile makeover is when a cosmetic dentist offers a range of cosmetic dental options such as using veneers, crowns, white fillings and teeth whitening to ensure that your entire smile is perfect and that you're happy with every single tooth.

What is a Veneer?

A veneer is a thin layer of porcelain made to fit over the front surface of a tooth, like a false fingernail fits over a nail. Sometimes a natural colour 'composite' material is used instead of porcelain.

Veneers can improve the colour, shape and position of your teeth. A precise shade of porcelain can be chosen to give the right colour to improve a single discoloured or stained tooth or to lighten front teeth (usually the upper ones) generally.

A veneer can make a chipped tooth look intact again. The porcelain covers the whole of the front of the tooth with a thicker section replacing the broken part.

Veneers can also be used to close small gaps, when orthodontics (braces) are not suitable. If one tooth is slightly out of position, a veneer can sometimes be fitted to bring it into line with the others.

Veneers make teeth look natural and healthy. Because they are very thin and are held in place by a special strong bond (rather like super-glue) very little preparation of the tooth is needed.

What is a Crown?

A crown is an artificial restoration that fits over the remaining part of a prepared tooth, making it strong and giving it the shape of a natural tooth. A crown is sometimes known as a 'cap'.

Crowns are an ideal restoration for teeth that have been broken, or have been weakened by decay or a very large filling. A crown could be used for a number of other reasons, for instance:

  • you may have discoloured fillings and would like to improve the appearance of the tooth
  • you may have had a root filling which will need a crown to protect it
  • it may help hold a bridge or denture firmly in place.

What is a White Filling?

A composite white filling is used to restore a small cavity (decay) in the tooth. The filling is called a white filling because of the natural, tooth colour of the material.

White fillings are considered a more healthier as well as aesthetically pleasing option than silver (amalgam) fillings. Composite white filling can be placed during just one visit to the dentist.

What is Teeth Whitening, Tooth Whitening or Bleaching?

Teeth whitening, tooth whitening and power bleaching teeth are all the same. Teeth become stained because of food and drinks such as tea, coffee and red wine. There are many other reasons for tooth discolouration and smoking tobacco is one of the main causes.

The main ingredient in teeth whitening is Hydrogen Peroxide. As the Hydrogen Peroxide gel is broken down, oxygen enters the enamel and dentin, bleaching colored substances while the structure of the tooth is unchanged.

A laser light activates the whitening gel and helps speed up the chemical reaction of the whitening product. The result is a brighter, whiter smile and no more stained teeth. A cosmetic dentist should be able to whiten your teeth within 1 hour.

Teeth whitening home kits are available to complement the 1 hour chair-side power bleaching. A custom built mouth tray is created by the cosmetic dentist to ensure a perfect fit and effective home bleaching process.
