Placing white fillings in front teeth used to be picking a single shade of the filling and placing it in the cavity. Whilst sometimes they blended well the results were often disappointing. The fillings did not match and they stained easily and discoloured. Modern white fillings are placed using two or three shades to build the filling in layers.
We are fortunate in having a dedicated and enthusiastic team of hygienists working within our practice, and the service that they provide is an essential part of the care that you will receive at the High Street Dental Practice. Many patients find that they get best value from their visits to us by combining their regular examination appointment with a hygienist appointment.
Clear Smile Brace and Six Month Smiles are techniques for straightening your teeth in an average time of six months to eight months, using tooth coloured brackets and coated wires. The technology works by applying simple movements to the teeth that show when you smile and does not attempt to make significant changes in your jaw relationship.
We can provide orthodontics for children under the NHS. If your child has crowded teeth or other issues with the position of their teeth then they may be need orthodontics to correct the problem. The first step is an initial appointment with Dr Lucy Pitman to assess the teeth. If your child fulfils the criteria for NHS treatment then they would then go onto a waiting list to start treatment.
Pain and clicking from the jaw joints can impact severely on quality of life. It is often associated with headaches, migraines, painful teeth, grinding and clenching, muscular pain in the face, excessive wear on the teeth, broken teeth and fillings. The cause of these problems is related to the function of the jaw joint, the way your teeth meet together and hyperactivity of the jaw muscles.

I was a patient at this practice but I had several problems missed by the dentist I was being seen by. I was referred to a periodontist and was then bounced from one practice to another, incurring costs all along the way. The periodontist then referred me back for a root canal filling. I was charged £800 for this and told it would take 2 hours. It took 75 minutes. The receptionist was surprised at how quickly I re-emerged from my treatment. I have subsequently looked at the prices on the website which have said from £400ish for s single root canal. When I queried the price I was charged I was told it was because I had been referred from an external source, even though it was my dental practice at the time. The receptionist then checked with the senior partner who said it was because I have a complicated procedure. A friend who was a dentist was absolutely shocked at the price I had been charged. They used to be a patient but due to the huge hike in prices here, has now taken their teeth elsewhere for treatment. The whole experience has been incredibly disappointing and it feels like money is the bottom line. I understand they have a business to run but loosing customers won't ensure repeat business.
I tried to take up my concerns for the quality of my care initially but was told well their specialism lies elsewhere. Again I didn't find this acceptable.
As a result of this I now use a different dental practice and would advice anybody to look elsewhere.

Can’t thank the high street dental team enough! They are all so friendly and helpful and gave me the best smile, I had clear smile braces from Christopher and although I didn’t need massive changes, my teeth turned out better that I could have imagined. I was told my teeth wouldn’t be perfect but they really were! Absolutely amazing team and even better results and I’ll continue to recommend them to anyone looking to improve their teeth!

As someone who has struggled with a lifelong fear of the dentist’s chair, Dr Olivia Nixon put me completely at ease with her professional and friendly attitude and approach. She has provided me with a smile to be proud of and even during this difficult period with COVID-19 I felt completely safe. I will definitely be recommending Dr Olivia to friends and family!
