I called Friday evening to see if they had emergency appointments due to serious tooth pain. They were very polite and willing to accommodate. Due to me being a 45-minute drive away — the closest dentist I could find on Google that was open — they assured me they would see me when I got there. Upon arrival the staff were so polite and welcoming. The expertise and advice before the procedure was amazing. Definitely worth the trip to get the pain away. 100% recommend them.

About hygiene & gum health
Gum disease is the most common reason adults lose teeth, and it is largely preventable. Regular professional cleaning removes the plaque and calculus that brushing cannot reach, and lets us spot bleeding, pocketing or bone loss before it becomes a problem.
Airflow uses a fine jet of warm water and powder to lift stains and biofilm gently, which patients find far more comfortable than traditional scaling. For established gum disease we provide a structured course of deep cleaning and maintenance.

Questions, answered
Hygiene & gum health: your questions
Does a scale and polish hurt?
It should not. Sensitive areas can be numbed, and Airflow is noticeably gentler than traditional instruments.
Can gum disease be cured?
Early gum disease (gingivitis) is fully reversible. Established periodontitis can be stabilised and maintained with professional care and good home cleaning.
Do I need hygiene visits if I have implants?
Yes, especially so. Implants rely on healthy gum and bone, and peri-implantitis is preventable with regular maintenance.

Dr Ibrahim helped me today with a difficult extraction. He is my hero for the dedication, skill and professionalism shown today. It was a tough one but wow. I was in so much pain and he saved me from it. I am eternally grateful to him. Just brilliant.
Visited today for a private emergency appointment. The practice was very clean and tidy, the staff very friendly and helpful. They really listened to my concerns and put me at ease. Addressed the problem and extracted my tooth — nothing was too much trouble. Swift service — top notch.
