Our General Dentistry Treatments
Routine Check-ups & Hygienist Appointments
Regularly visiting your dentist and hygienist is the best way to keep your teeth and gums healthy, and your breath fresh. That’s why we recommend regular visits for:
- Routine dental check-ups include a thorough assessment of your teeth, gums, and overall oral health, including oral cancer screening and X-rays if required. These visits help us catch any problems early and keep your smile healthy.
- Hygienist appointments involve professional cleaning to remove plaque and tartar build-up, helping to prevent gum disease and keep your teeth feeling fresh and polished.
Regular appointments not only protect your smile but also reduce the likelihood of needing more complex treatments later on.
Crowns & Bridges
When teeth are damaged, weakened, or missing, crowns and bridges provide durable and natural-looking solutions.
- Crowns are tooth-shaped caps that strengthen and restore teeth after significant decay, wear, or root canal treatment.
- Bridges replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring securely to neighbouring teeth or implants.
At Artisan Implants, we use high-quality ceramic materials to create restorations that blend seamlessly with your natural smile.
Root Canal Treatments
Sometimes infection can reach the inner part of a tooth (the pulp), causing pain and sensitivity. A root canal treatment removes the infection, cleans the tooth, and seals it to prevent further problems.
At Artisan Implants, root canal treatments are:
- Carried out with precision and care to ensure maximum comfort.
- Designed to preserve your natural tooth, avoiding the need for extraction.
- Completed with a crown for long-term strength and function.
Our team in Blackheath has years of experience in carrying out successful root canal treatments with gentle care.
Tooth Extractions
While we always aim to save your teeth, sometimes an extraction is the best solution for your oral health. This may include:
- Wisdom teeth removal
- Severely damaged or decayed teeth
- Preparation for orthodontic or implant treatment
With our in-house oral surgery expertise, extractions at Artisan Implants are performed safely and gently, with your comfort as our top priority.
