Our Treatments
At Hutton Village Dental Practice, we offer many dental treatments under one roof. We recommend treatments to our patients based on what we see during a regular dental examination.
Preventative Dentistry
Preventative dentistry is the cornerstone of our practice, and it’s how we help you maintain your oral health. During your regular dental check-ups, we examine your oral health and let you know where you can make improvements. The more you take care of your teeth now, the less dental treatment you need in the future.
At our dental practice, our preventative dentistry services include:
Start healthy oral health habits early and learn how to take care of your little one’s teeth as they grow. It’s important to give your child a proper foundation for their dental hygiene.
Breath can be an indicator of dental issues, such as gingivitis. While using mints or brushing your teeth can improve the smell of your breath temporarily, this issue should be seen by our dental team.
Gum disease is a preventable infection of the gum tissue, which is the foundation of your teeth. As the effects of gum disease build up over time, it can cause tooth sensitivity, looseness or the risk of losing teeth.
Many cavities are preventable. Our dental team prefers to treat decay in the early stages before it gets larger and leads to more severe oral health conditions, like infection.
We screen for mouth abnormalities during a patient’s routine dental check-up. Early detection allows treatment to start sooner and offers a better overall prognosis.
Cosmetic Dentistry
When your teeth are perfectly healthy but need treatment to improve their appearance, it’s called cosmetic dentistry. If you’re unhappy with the colour of your teeth, or self-conscious about how they look, our cosmetic dentistry treatments can help give you a better smile.
Some cosmetic dentistry services we offer include:
Nervous Patients
We want all of our patients to feel comfortable in the dental chair. Patients with dental anxieties and phobias may avoid getting the care they need because they are afraid of visiting the dentist. Fear shouldn’t get in the way of you receiving the dental treatments you require.
Our team of caring dentists and hygienists will listen to your dental concerns and help make dental treatments as comfortable as possible. We can also acclimatise and take treatment in steps to gradually build your dental confidence.
For more nervous patients, or patients receiving more complex treatment, Hutton Village Dental Practice has an experienced dental team in the provision of Conscious Sedation. Conscious Sedation, typically delivered intravenously, has a relaxing effect upon dental anxiety, making patients feel more peaceful during dental treatments. IV Conscious Sedation can also cause some amnesia helping patients to forget more difficult dental procedures
Minor Oral Surgery
We provide minor oral surgery at our dental practice to manage more advanced cases.
Minor oral surgery whilst sounding daunting, can help improve the accessibility and visibility for the dentist to provide dental treatment in a more predictable way.
Minor oral surgery can support the success of more advanced dental treatment options: difficult extractions, including wisdom tooth extractions, sinus lift procedures and dental implants, or periodontal/gum surgery.
We can help make minor oral surgery procedures more manageable by combining our conscious sedation techniques to relax any dental anxieties.
If a patient requires major surgery, or further investigation of an oral medicine query, we may refer you to a specialist oral surgeon or hospital environment.
- Extractions. We remove wisdom teeth, teeth that we are unable to save and teeth that are causing damage to your overall oral health.
- Implant Related Surgery. Our dentists perform surgery to prepare for or place dental implants.
Implants
When you lose permanent teeth, it is important to replace them in order to maintain good function, maintain a healthy bone structure in your jaw and stabilise the remaining natural teeth.
Dental implants are an artificial replacement for one or multiple missing teeth.
They can be connected to crowns, bridges or dentures to achieve a natural looking smile.
Similar to your natural teeth, it is important that dental implants are maintained with effective oral hygiene techniques, regular examinations with your dentist and maintenance visits with one of our oral hygienists.
