Over the years it is likely that you will get to know your dentist in Harley Street very well. You will be seeing them around two times a year for a regular check-up, but you will probably start visiting more frequently as your teeth get older, to benefit from other treatments that we have to offer to keep you smiling. We are proud to cater for both children and adults and will do whatever we can to make sure your teeth are strong and healthy from a young age right through into your retirement.
Look after your child’s teeth from a young age
Bringing your child to see their dentist in Harley Street as soon as they have developed their first tooth is important. Instilling good dental habits in them from a young age will decrease their chances of suffering from dental phobia and increase the likelihood of them understanding just how important their dental hygiene is.
We provide fluoride application treatment which helps to protect your child’s teeth from tooth decay on a long-term basis. The fluoride application provides minerals and is painted onto your child’s teeth. We also offer fissure sealants. Applied to the biting surfaces of your child’s teeth these sealants offer extra protection against decay, and they are tooth coloured so they do not stand out or look unsightly.
Spotting things such as under and overbites from a young age is important too, as the sooner these issues are spotted the sooner they can be rectified. Having braces to correct the positioning of teeth sooner rather than later can reduce treatment time, as teeth are more susceptible to moving at a younger age. Resolving these issues early can also prevent more complex straightening treatments from being needed in the future.
Replacing any missing teeth you have will be stress-free
Your dentist in Harley Street is able to help you restore your adult teeth if they start to fall out due to tooth decay as you get older. Sometimes people can have their teeth knocked out in an accident and need them replacing, but however you have lost your teeth and regardless of how many need replacing we can help.
Dental implants are becoming an increasingly popular way of replacing teeth. They offer a more permanent feeling replacement option and can last for up to twenty years if they are taken care of properly. Made to look and feel exactly like your original teeth, they will blend in with any original teeth that you still have. If you are replacing an entire set of teeth then they will give you a fresh, even set of teeth that people will not be able to notice is not real.
Having dental implants consists of having one or several titanium screws placed into your jawbone. They fuse together with the bone, stimulating it and acting as the root of your original tooth would. How many implants you need in total will depend on how many teeth you are replacing. A full set of teeth can require between four and twelve screws, whilst a single tooth replacement will only need the one.
