Comprehensive dental treatment in Walkerston

Everybody has the right to good dental treatment. We know that, for some people, planning dental treatment is like pulling teeth before you even get here. Rather than wait to have the treatment you want, talk to us at Walkerston Dental about how you can get going today. We have a gentle approach to dentistry whether you are having a general clean or something more extensive. Below we discuss just some of the treatments that we offer.

Root canal work

Sometimes, an infection in your tooth can go quite deep. When this happens, you can experience tooth ache, headache and sensitivity as well as long-term gum disease. The treatment that is used to address this is called root canal work. This involves removing the bacterial infection at the center of the tooth to avoid having to remove the tooth itself. Once this is all done, the dentist places a filling or crown to cover and protect the tooth. This is a treatment with a high success rate and, if you have it sooner rather than later, you should be able to enjoy your natural teeth for many years to come.

Dental implants

Put simply, dental implants are used to replace missing teeth. This is a form of dental treatment that we are pleased to offer our patients at Walkerston Dental. The benefits that many people experience after having dental implants make it a worthwhile and positive treatment for us to offer. Patients gain secure, functional and great-looking teeth.

Orthodontics

More people than ever before are hoping to improve the appearance of their smile. One way to do this is using orthodontics. At Walkerston Dental, we offer realignment treatments to patients of all ages. Early orthodontics can mean that children and teenagers go forward into adulthood with a straight smile for life. If this didn’t happen to you and you are hoping to correct an issue as an adult, we can talk to you about our range of modern straightening methods that are designed to fit in with your lifestyle.
