Patient Aftercare

Excellent facilities – the highest standardsEverything in our practice has been designed for maximum comfort and minimum stress throughout your visit, from the ease of access and parking to the relaxing atmosphere of our patients’ lounge.We are housed in one of the most advanced practices in the UK, ergonomically designed to be both clean and easy to clean.The sterilisation and treatment facilities allow us to maintain the highest levels of surgical cleanliness required for complex treatment procedures.
Wherever possible, we use disposable instruments and materials.
We offer the full range of dental treatment from ongoing preventative care, to specialist procedures such as cosmetic dentistry, implants, and sinus and bone grafts.

 

Advanced technology

Our new Siemens digital imaging equipment affords instantaneous viewing and pinpoint accuracy with the lowest dosages available in modern radiography. This technology allows us to make extremely accurate differential diagnosis and also offers millimetre perfect bone depth assessments required for advanced implantology.

We are one of the only practices in the UK to install the latest Siemens integrated treatment centres. These allow implantology procedures to be carried out directly from the operator’s chair, making sterilisation simpler and easier to maintain.

We are committed to offering comprehensive family dental care in a relaxed, comfortable and safe environment. Prevention is better than cure for adults and children! Research shows that preventative dentistry delivered on a regular basis greatly reduces the risk of dental disease and provides a platform for a lifetime of improved oral health.

We run a dedicated surgery in Inverness for the sole use of our hygienists – because we encourage patients to gain the benefits of regular visits to our dental hygiene centre. All our patients discover that regular hygiene and good advice results in a much healthier oral environment where treatment needs are reduced or removed.

We offer various Dental Care Plans which can be tailored to meet the treatment needs of you and your family. We are always delighted to take the time to explain how these payment schemes work – and to answer any questions you may have.

Alongside our regular dental care programmes, we also offer dental implants, invisible orthodontics, tooth whitening and veneers. These additional services always form part of a package that is relevant to your overall dental healthcare and needs.

All of our treatments are complemented with a comprehensive after care treatment plan that puts our patient at the heart of everyhting that we do.A key part of successful after care is regular check ups and visits to the hygenist to ensure the health and well being of your mouth and your teeth. When you come to us for cosmetic or more advanced dental treatment you can rest assured that the follow up care will be delivered by our friendly and caring team just as effectively as the original treatment.
