Private Dentist Near Me

Visiting your dentist regularly is crucial to maintaining good oral health. At Revitalise we would like to see you every 6 to 12 months for a routine general dentistry check-up. However, every patient is different and a treatment plan unique to you will be created at your initial consultation.

As a private dentist, we have more time to spend with our patients whilst reducing waiting times. The additional time we have with our patients allows us to educate the patient on the most effective and efficient ways they can improve their oral health. Through education, we aim to help our patients maintain their smile for as long as possible with simple things they can do themselves at home. An extremely important part of our general dentistry service.

With reduced waiting times we can offer you the help you need before your symptoms get worse or untreatable. General dentistry treatments such as fillings are best treated as soon as possible to prevent further decay and damage to the tooth. We are also able to offer composite fillings also known as ‘tooth-coloured’ fillings, which are usually not available on the NHS. Many patients are often concerned with noticeable silver in their mouth with amalgam fillings.

Sometimes wisdom teeth might need to be removed even if they are not currently causing any pain. This is usually recommended when they grow in at an unusual angle or not have enough room to break through your gums due to overcrowding. Sometimes, wisdom teeth can affect the adjacent teeth which can result in the loss of both these teeth.

If your wisdom teeth are not causing any pain, and we do not identify that they may cause problems in the future, there will be no need to remove them. However, many people will go their whole lives without experiencing any problems with their wisdom teeth. During your general dentistry check up we will check for signs that your wisdom teeth might cause problems later in life.

A very common misconception is that if you are not in pain, there is no need to see the dentist. Although pain is a good indicator that something is going wrong, unfortunately in dental terms, most of the time pain means that it is too late. General dentistry can prevent any disease or treat it before it costs you your tooth.
During an examination, the dentist looks for signs of cancer or other diseases by examining your tongue, throat, face, head, and neck. A very important examination to miss out on!
Visiting the dentist at the recommended intervals tailored to you is important to ensure you are truly healthy, and the work you do to maintain your oral health is on track!

Nobody wants to have their tooth removed. Teeth are important functional and aesthetic parts of your body. A lot of people worry that tooth removal will hurt.
Here at Revitalise, we make sure that any teeth to be removed are properly and fully numb before we remove them. This makes tooth removals virtually painless.
It is true, you may experience some discomfort after the treatment as your body will go through a phase of inflammation which is actually the first phase of healing. We give you advice on pain relief to help you manage this.
It can be uncomfortable having a tooth removed, however, using a local anaesthetic during the procedure you will not feel any pain. Once the anaesthetic has worn off it is common to feel some mild pain and soreness which can easily be treated with over the counter painkillers such as paracetamol and ibuprofen. This pain should clear up within 24 hours.

We understand that tooth pain or discomfort can sneak up on you, and when it does it affects your day to day life. We offer emergency appointments to all of our registered patients who need to see a dentist at short notice. Any necessary prescriptions are included as part of your emergency treatment.
