Orthodontics
Orthodontics straightens crooked teeth. In this practice we mainly use fixed braces as in the picture, which provide the best possible results in the minimum time. To qualify for NHS treatment, your child has to reach specific criteria of "crookedness" but your child is entitled to an NHS examination to decide this.
If you are not a patient of this practice, your dentist can refer you for an orthodontic examination.
Our Specialist Orthodontist also provides comprehensive private treatment for adults and children who cannot obtain NHS treatment
Emergencies
Regular attending patients. If you telephone early enough, we will try and see you on the same day, although you may have to sit and wait.​ Non-regular patients, We will offer you the first available appointment, which may be on the same day.
For severe emergencies outside of normal opening hours, please telephone for emergency arrangements run by the NHS England.​
Children
It is really important to encourage children to get used to coming to the dentist. We are here to help your child into good dietary habits, regular toothbrushing, and foreseeing and dealing with problems as they arise, such as the need for braces.
We strongly encourage you to bring your child or baby, at an early age, even before they have any teeth, to meet one of our friendly dentists, and get used to our surroundings.
