Dentistry


We believe that dentistry should be a stress-free experience, with patients feeling in control of the situation and being keen and enthusiastic to come to the office and invest in their dental future."
Gentle, patient-friendly dental care to grow confidence and make psychological acceptance of treatment easier. We use the latest GENDEX digital x-ray system to minimise exposure to very low levels.
In dentistry it’s corny to say “We Cater to Cowards”, but we especially welcome nervous patients and find them professionally rewarding and can routinely cater for their special needs. We always like to "Inform before we perform, so there are no surprises!” We make sure that nervous patient feel comfortable and ”in control” of the situation. We are also able to offer happy gas (nitrous oxide) sedation, which many nervous patients find helps them fantastically.
We give our patients a five year guarantee on all our tooth-coloured fillings, ceramic inlays & crown and bridgework on request, subject to them joining our continuing care dental hygiene programme.
We only use materials that have been successfully quality tested by the Internationally renowned American Aesthetic Dentistry Research Group at the University of Texas.

Psychology



During our lifetimes more than 8% of us will need professional assistance with personal or psychological problems, the vast majority of patients can be easily helped by consulting a clinical psychologist. Simply talking problems over calmly with a psychologist commonly gives a fresh insight into the situation that can greatly help in resolving it.

Chiropractic

Even in the 15th century when Andreas Vesalius the father of modern anatomy worked, people had acute and chronic back and neck problems; now with the stress and pressures of modern working life these problems are increasingly more common."
Backs Recently the respected journal "Scientific American" stated that the initial treatment of choice for lower back pain is manipulation; we concur with this opinion. Our back and neck manipulation specialist with chiropractic and osteopathic techniques is able to organise treatment at short-notice to quickly sort out acute spinal problems as well as chronic back conditions.PostureThe human body is designed to stand and walk on two feet, with the natural curve of our spine adapted to this purpose. Tasks that place the spine and body in unnatural positions, such as working habits and sports injuries, mean that getting it wrong can be the root cause of chronic injury by increased strain on muscles and joints causing pain. We also believe that there is some truth in the belief of many healthcare professionals that bad backs, necks and postures are connected with poor dental health and jaw alignment problems. Arms, Legs and KneesChiropractic manipulation and mobilization can greatly improve problems caused by work or sport related injuries to the limbs that restore correct function to the joint, muscles and tendons that have been affected. We routinely treat joint problems
