General Dentistry at Payneham Road Dental Centre
General dentistry is the cornerstone of maintaining optimal oral health. Regular dental visits allow us to detect and treat issues early, preventing more serious problems down the line. Our comprehensive general dental services cater to patients of all ages, ensuring that everyone receives the highest standard of care.
Our routine check-ups and cleanings are designed to keep your teeth and gums healthy, helping to prevent cavities, gum disease, and other oral health issues. For those requiring minor restorations, our fillings can restore the function and appearance of your teeth.
Periodontal treatment is crucial for maintaining healthy gums, which are the foundation of a healthy mouth. Our skilled team can provide the necessary care to prevent and treat gum disease, ensuring your gums stay healthy and strong.
Endodontics, or root canal therapy, allows us to save teeth that would otherwise need to be extracted due to infection or damage to the dental pulp. Our advanced techniques ensure a comfortable and effective treatment process.
For teeth that cannot be saved, including impacted wisdom teeth, we offer expert extraction services. Our gentle approach ensures minimal discomfort and a smooth recovery.
We also provide diagnostic services, such as X-rays and OPGs, to accurately diagnose and plan your treatment. Additionally, our custom-made guards and splints protect your teeth from injury and wear, while also alleviating facial pain and joint issues.
In case of dental emergencies, our team is here to provide prompt and effective care to address your urgent dental needs.
At Payneham Road Dental Centre our commitment to excellence in general dentistry ensures that you and your family receive the best possible care for a lifetime of healthy smiles.
