Sterilisation
Highest standard of sterilisation protocol.

All plastic instruments, gloves, polishing brushes and root-filling instruments are one patient disposable.

All other instruments are heat and steam sterilised after every use.

Staff receive regular updates and training in procedures.

Diagnosis
Check-ups include full mouth examination and periodontal (gum) charting plus oral cancer screening.

Materials
All materials used in fillings are high durability, high quality and, where appropriate, blend with natural tooth colour.

Fillings are covered by a two year warranty providing you attend for routine check-ups and maintenance (this usually means every six months). The warranty allows replacement free of charge if the filling itself has failed, for example, the material has broken.

The warranty does not cover failure of the tooth either due to stress or impact fracture or due to secondary dental decay or the onset of root infection. Crowns are also covered automatically for two years and for five years if you choose a premium quality crown. You may be asked to pay a supplement if a new design or more durable material is chosen for the replacement crown. Failure of the tooth underneath the crown or onset of root infection is not covered by the warranty. Root fillings and non standard treatments are not covered.
