Phil, Aidan and all the team at Irish and King
“Our aim is to offer a friendly and professional service to all of our patients, young and old, in a relaxed environment.”
Family Friendly Practice
We are a family friendly practice and encourage parents to introduce their children to regular dental check-ups from an early age. All of our children are seen on the NHS until they turn 18 or 19 if in full time education.
Our aim is to prevent decay by regular check-ups, advice and protective coatings on adult teeth as soon as they can be applied.
Tooth Whitening & Implants
As we get older, people sometimes find that their teeth appear a darker colour. This is a natural aging process and once the whitening procedure has been completed the teeth should never return to the darker colour again.
It is also a starting point for all cosmetic cases and smile makeovers. Often brides and grooms have it done before their big day.
Hygienist Services
We recommend that all of our patients have regular appointments with our hygienist to help prevent the onset of gum disease or to slow down existing gum disease. Periodontal disease (gum disease) is a major cause of tooth loss in adults today.
If plaque is left to build up it causes the gums to become swollen and bleed (gingivitis). If left untreated this can cause bad breath, loose teeth and gaps to open up between teeth, resulting eventually in the teeth getting painful and falling out.
Airflow polishing
Airflow polishing is a technique that uses air, water and a fine powder (Erythritol or Sodium Bicarbonate) to disrupt bacterial biofilm and remove plaque from the tooth surface. Airflow would also remove staining caused by coffee, tea, red wine and tobacco use. The result is instant.
Airflow can be more comfortable for patients with sensitive teeth. It can be safely used in areas of gum disease, around implants, bridges, veneers and crowns.
The feedback from our patients who have had this treatment so far has been extremely positive.
