LOOKING AFTER YOU AND YOUR TEETH

It is important to look after your teeth by maintaining good oral hygiene and attending regular dental check ups in order to prevent tooth decay and gum disease which can lead to further medical problems. 

We carry out all NHS Dental treatments that you may require and have a range of Private treatments also available. 

We are currently taking on new private patients so if you are looking to become a patient, please contact our receptionists to book for a New Patient Examination today.

​

The initial cost of a New Private Patient Examination is £95 which includes any necessary x-rays. Thereafter, the charge for a routine private examination is £65. The cost of any further treatment that you may require will be discussed with you in surgery and there are also Private Fee lists available upon request from our reception. All fees are estimated as dentistry is not an exact science and is dependent upon clinical findings at the time of the examination, which may cause estimated fees to alter. For these reasons, the fee list can only be considered a guide only.

​

We also require a deposit for all private treatment. The amount will depend on the estimated cost of your treatment, but our receptionist will advise you on the amount that you will need to pay in advance. This can be paid over the phone or at the practice when booking an appointment

COSMETIC TREATMENT

We offer a range of Private Cosmetic Treatments at Bigby Street Dental Practice such as Prophy Flex Treatment, Teeth Whitening and Composite Bonding.

  • Prophy Flex Treatment - £90

This treatment is best for people who would like to brighten their teeth by removing stains from their teeth. Prophy Flex may not be a whitening treatment, but you’ll certainly be able to see a difference is your smile.
We use a combination of high-pressure air, water, and carbonated particles to break down persistent stains stuck to the surface of the teeth caused by caffeinated drinks, red wine, and spicy foods.

This quick and simple treatment is completely safe, painless, and won’t harm the surface of your teeth. We can typically achieve amazing results in around 30 minutes. There is a scale and polish included in the treatment.

​​​

  • BlancOne In Surgery Teeth Whitening - £250

This is an in-surgery whitening treatment that includes 3 applications of  whitening gel for 8 minutes each under a UV light. This is all included in one appointment where the gel is applied 3 times in one session to produce a brighter result. This includes a Scale and Polish before the whitening procedure is carried out. The appointment is approximately 60 minutes.​

​

  • Boutique At-Home Whitening – Whitening trays included - £350

This treatment allows you to whitening your teeth in the comfort of your own home. An initial assessment is carried out to take impressions of your teeth so we can provide you with custom whitening trays. These are sent to our lab to be made for you. We will then have an appointment with you to fit your trays and give you your Boutique Whitening Pack containing 4 tubes of whitening gel. We will give you instructions on how and when to use your whitening gel and take the current shade of your teeth. You are then free to use your whitening treatment as frequently as you feel necessary until you reach your desired shade,  you can then reduce how frequently you do the treatment. After a couple of weeks, we will see you for a review appointment to see how you are doing, we will take the new shade of your teeth to show you the improvement and give advice on any problems that you may have.​

Additional tubes can be bought in future from us for £50.

​

  • Composite Bonding - £150 (Per Tooth)

Composite Bonding is a minimally invasive, pain-free way for improving the look of your teeth. If you have chipped or cracked teeth, discolouration and even small gaps or fractures,  composite bonding can help with reshaping your teeth to look more aesthetically pleasing without damaging your natural tooth.

Composite bonding works by layering a special resin material onto the front surface of each tooth receiving treatment.

This resin is built up and then allowed to harden under a special light before being gently sculpted into shape and polished. The exact colour of the resin will be matched to the rest of your teeth to leave you with a natural-looking smile.

We will need to see you for a free of charge assessment prior to your treatment appointment, so the dentist can assess if you qualify for composite bonding and plan which teeth require the treatment. Aftercare advice will be given to you at the end of the treatment appointment so you are aware how to care for and maintain your new smile.​​​​​

HOW TO MAINTAIN YOUR ORAL HYGIENE AT HOME 

 

  • Brushing should be carried out twice daily as a minimum – clean teeth last thing at night before bed and at least one other time each day, preferably in the morning before breakfast.

  • Brush for at least two minutes.

  • Brushing is more effective with a small headed medium toothbrush. You should change your toothbrush regularly – as soon as the bristles begin to splay, the toothbrush loses its ability to clean properly.

  • Brush lightly in circular motions – brushing too hard can cause the gums to recede.

  • Electric toothbrushes usually give better results as they can assist with brushing but still need to be used with the correct brushing technique.

  • Use a  fluoride toothpaste containing 1350 – 1500ppm for maximum decay control.

  • Rinsing with water, mouthwashes or mouth rinses immediately after tooth brushing will wash away the concentrated fluoride in the remaining toothpaste, thus diluting it and reducing its preventive effects – spitting out excess toothpaste is preferable. If using a mouthwash, use at a different time to brushing.

  • Regular interdental cleaning is recommended with either floss or interdental brushes.

  • Use a fluoride mouthwash daily, try to use it at a different time to brushing as this will help to maximise the effect.

  • Limit sugar intake  - limit sugary foods and try to drink at mealtimes, only and avoid snacking in between meals - this allows the remineralisation process to take place and repair any damage to the teeth.

  • Limit cigarette/alcohol intake - smoking causes gum disease and bad breath, preferably quit smoking.

  • Attend the Dentist on a regular basis. This allows your teeth and all soft tissues to be examined closely and any problems rectified. The Dentist can also give you information about how to look after your mouth properly.
