If you are seeking general dentistry in Hammersmith, Fulham or the surrounding areas, Blythe Road is here to help.
The main focus of general dentistry is to protect and maintain a good standard of oral health. This often involves preventative treatments, which form a large cornerstone of general dentistry, but, of course, includes remedial treatment when necessary.
What types of general dentistry treatments do you offer?
When you come to see us at Blythe Road, you will find a range of general dentistry services, including:
- Crowns
- White Fillings
- Oral Hygiene services
- Dental Implants
- Dental Bridges
Regular check-ups ensure that everything is in working order – including your gum health. Not only does this maintain your current oral health, but helps prevent further, more serious problems by checking for abnormalities or areas of concern each time you visit.
Crowns
Although sometimes altered for cosmetic purposes, porcelain crowns are primarily used to cover and correct the tooth’s entire surface when more serious issues arise.
Most often, this includes repairing fractured or worn teeth, which once corrected, allows for healthy chewing and digesting of your food.
White Fillings
Once very rare, white fillings are becoming increasingly common in general dentistry practices.
Not only are white fillings strong enough to support chewing and grinding even in the back teeth but they also hold insulating properties. They reduce cracking and weakening around the filling that can occur from overly hot or cold foods.
White fillings are also much more aesthetically pleasing, meaning that white fillings can be used on any part of the mouth, visible or otherwise.
Oral Hygiene services
Oral hygiene services are performed by oral hygienists within the clinic and include:
- Removing plaque, tartar, and stains that also helps stop gum disease
- Preventing cavities
- Reducing tooth loss
- Brightening and whitening smiles
- Giving advice and support on improving your dental health at home
These treatments are designed to remove dental problems you have currently and in doing so, reduce the likelihood of future issues from occurring.
Dental Bridges
A dental bridge is used to fill the gap of one or more missing natural teeth, usually with artificial teeth called a pontic.
The pontic is anchored to the tooth next to the gap, which can be abutment teeth or dental implants.
Dental bridges are very effective for helping with chewing, maintaining jaw structure, and restoring your ability to speak normally.
