Patient Information

All new patients are required to fill out a medical history questionnaire and this is renewed annually, to ensure we have up to date details on any existing medical conditions or medication being taken.

All initial consultations include a dental x-ray, to obtain an up to date picture of your current dental health. This enables us to identify any hidden issues, before they become bigger problems.

Dental Examinations

Prior to a dental examination your dentist will gather your dental history, including your dental x-rays.

A thorough examination will be made of all your teeth, paying particular attention to any previous dental work to check their integrity. The dentist may take the opportunity to give your teeth a scale and polish.

If any problems are spotted, your dentist will explain their diagnosis and discuss treatment options.

Fissure Sealants and Fluoride Varnish

As well as regular checkups we can also offer preventative treatments such as Fissure Sealants. Ideal for children between the ages of 6 and 14, they offer an invisible sealant that protects teeth from decay.

We can also offer Fluoride Varnish, a short term treatment applied to the enamel, dentine or cementum of the tooth. It helps prevent decay, remineralise the tooth surface and to treat dentine hypersensitivity.
