General Dentistry
"At Kirkby Dental practice we provide a wide range of general dental procedures for both NHS and Private patients. We understand that every person is unique and we treat all patients with care according to their individual needs."
Services
Typically you will need to attend for a check-up every 6 months but if the dentist finds that your oral health is at higher risk you may need to have more frequent checks.
Dentist checks teeth, gums, and health, applies sealants or fluoride for kids, discusses treatments and schedules follow-up if needed.
Scale & Polish
It is advised to have a Scale & Polish every 6-12 months. This may be recommended more often to patients who suffer from gum disease.
Fillings
You can have a white or a black (amalgam) filling depending on what is indicated and best for you.
Usually when you have toothache, an infected tooth or after an accident.
Extractions
We provide dental extraction of Permanent (Adult) teeth, roots and Deciduous (Baby) teeth.
Dentures
If you are missing teeth and you would like to replace the gaps, dentures (partial or full) can be a great solution to restore your smile.
For Instance, if you have a tooth that is broken and cannot be restored only with a filling or you've had an RCT, you will usually need a crown. There is a wide range of Crown materials and Types which you can choose from.
Mouthguards
Patients that grind/clench their teeth or have Jaw problems may need to wear a Mouthguard (occlusal splint). Teeth grinding is relatively common and it is important for your oral health to share this information with your Dentist.
Referrals
If you require special treatment like Oral Surgery or Complex Orthodontics we can assess you and refer you to the appropriate specialists.
