Everyone deserves a smile they feel confident about.

A periodontal assessment looks closely at your gums and the bone that supports your teeth, giving us a clear picture of the foundation your smile relies on. I'll gently examine your gums, measure the spaces around each tooth, and check for early signs of gum disease. Catching periodontal disease early makes it far easier to treat and manage, helping you protect your gums and keep your smile healthy for years to come.

I'm qualified to carry out thorough dental examinations, allowing me to identify issues such as tooth decay and infection early on. If further treatment is needed, I'll refer you to the appropriate dental professional, ensuring you receive the right care at the right time to keep your oral health on track.

I provide clear, hands-on education and personalised oral hygiene instruction, including the use of disclosing dye to reveal plaque on your teeth. Together, we'll work on your brushing and flossing techniques, choose the right products for your needs, and build simple, lasting habits that keep your teeth and gums healthy. Disclosing dye is also a fantastic tool for kids and teens, helping them see plaque for themselves and learn the importance of good oral hygiene habits from an early age.

An oral cancer screening is a thorough check of your mouth and throat to look for any unusual changes. Early detection is key and if we notice any areas of concern, we'll recommend a referral to a specialist for further tests. Regular screenings, especially if you smoke, drink heavily, or use tobacco, are an important part of keeping your mouth healthy and catching potential issues early.

Fissure sealants are a thin, tooth-coloured coating applied to the chewing surfaces of back teeth, covering the deep grooves where food and bacteria can hide and helping to prevent decay before it starts. It's a quick, simple treatment that's especially beneficial for children and teenagers, though adults with deep grooves in their teeth can benefit too.

A chemist mouthguard is no substitute for a professionally made one.
If you play contact sport, a properly fitted mouthguard is a must. Without one, your teeth can come off second best.
The process is simple: I'll take an impression of your upper teeth, and from there, a custom-fit mouthguard will be made just for you, giving your smile the protection it deserves.
