Treatments from a Berkshire Dentist – Oral Surgery
If you’re having problems with your wisdom teeth we can assess the prognosis of these teeth and decide whether they need to be removed or not. We also do more complicated extractions of teeth which require minor surgery and apicectomies.

Treatments from a Reading Dentist – Oral Cancer Screening
As part of your initial consultation you will receive a full oral health check including examination of the head and neck region. A dental check up is a perfect opportunity to have this part of the body thoroughly examined.

Treatments from a Dentist in Berkshire – Sedation
Intravenous sedation is a completely safe technique which brings patient comfort to unparalleled levels. We use a sedative which makes you snooze through your dental appointment. Even though you are not technically asleep, our patients describe the experience as seeming to be asleep. You will have little or no memory of the appointment. You will not even remember any sounds or smells. With sedation, you will find that your treatment is performed more comfortably than you might ever have thought possible. You will be drowsy and unaware of the time passing by. During the entire appointment you will be monitored continually. Sedation is especially useful for adult patients who:

  • Have high anxiety about dental visits
  • Have had traumatic dental experiences in the past
  • Are receiving complex treatments/surgery
  • Have difficulty getting numb
  • Have a strong gag reflex
  • Have TMJ troubles and cannot open their mouth for extended periods
  • Are afraid of needles in the mouth
  • Have sensitive teeth
  • Hate the noises and/or smells associated with dental care
  • Simply do not have the time for multiple visits
  • Sedation is only for adult patients

We will schedule a consultation appointment first to answer any questions. At this time we will review your medical history to confirm that you are eligible for treatment under sedation.

Treatments from a Dentist in Reading – Hypnotherapy
This very successful technique can be used to help those with dental phobias and can be discussed at your initial consultation appointment. You can then be referred directly to our in house hypnotherapist. As part of oral health promotion our hypnotherapist also provides smoking cessation sessions.

Treatments from a Dentist in Berkshire – Technology
We attain a very relaxed environment by setting the ambience in surgery and embracing the latest technologies. You can listen to relaxing music while you’re having your dental treatment or watch your favourite DVD on the LCD screen. We have an intraoral camera which shows your teeth on the LCD screen and allows you to see what the dentist sees whilst examining your mouth. Our digital imaging system means we have wireless x-rays. This system provides many benefits over conventional x-rays, the main one being that the dose of radiation to you is significantly reduced. In addition, results are instantaneous and due to the increased accuracy, there is rarely a need to repeat the picture.

Treatments from a dentist in Reading – Cross Infection
All of our facilities use state of the art sterilisation techniques. A digital vacuum autoclave is used for all instruments and disposable, one-time use only, instruments are used whenever possible. We have a strict cross infection policy that must be adhered to at all times.
