Your Journey

You're ready to take your first steps towards improving your smile, and I’m here to guide you every step of the way. 

Whilst each of my patients have different needs, and treatment plans are individually tailored to meet those needs, here’s what you can expect when you come to see me.

Smile Evaluation

At this first appointment I hope to find out lots about you, what your concerns are and what you hope to improve about your smile.

I will likely perform a brief smile analysis and take a couple of smile photos to understand your needs better.

We will then explore the possibilities to enhance your smile :-)

* Finding the right dentist who you can trust to meet your aspirations is really important; this appointment gives you the opportunity to assess if I am the right dentist for you.

Examination

It's really important that ensure your teeth are healthy before embarking on a smile transformation, so I'll undertake a comprehensive and thorough examination of your mouth to ensure everything is tip top and you have nothing to worry about. I'll also take x-rays, photographs, a 3D scan and undertake a Smile Design analysis as applicable.

Plan

I'm a firm believer in being organised and having a well planned workflow, so this step is crucial. As the old adage goes "failing to plan is planning to fail".

Together, we’ll explore the possibilities to enhance your smile based on your individual goals and what is most clinically appropriate. I will take the time to explain everything clearly so you understand your options. This will help you make informed choices about the treatment you wish to receive. 

Your bespoke treatment journey will be planned meticulously to be as minimally invasive as possible and to provide you with the best smile for the future not just today!

I will provide you with links to further information with pictures and videos, which you can read and watch in your own time.

* The examination and planning appointment can often be combined into a single appointment, unless your needs are more complex

Treatment

When you attend your treatment appointments, you can rest assured that you will receive high quality care in a clean and comfortable environment.

I have a long-term approach to all of my care, so following competition of treatment,  many of my patients return for regular examinations so we can monitor your oral health together.
