Oakmor Dental Centre is primarily a Private practice that offers general and cosmetic dentistry. We also operate a Patient plan for our regular patients that wish to spread the cost of their appointments over the year. Emergency appointments for patients in pain are usually available within 24 hours but on the same day where possible.

We pride ourselves on providing the very best quality care for your teeth and your smile. Our friendly team will do everything possible to make you feel comfortable and in control, as we understand a visit to the dentist can sometimes feel a little stressful. The practice is located in Braintree town centre, near to several public car parks with access for disabled parking on the forecourt.
A full assessment of your mouth will include an examination of the teeth, your tongue and cheeks, oral cancer screening, periodontal (gum health) screening, dietary advice and oral hygiene instruction. Clinical photographs are taken when necessary to help us explain what's going on in your mouth. X-rays will be taken at regular intervals for the early detection of potential problems.
Dental hygienists are specially trained to work as part of the dental team, to give care to patients. They play an important part in dental health care and are mainly concerned with preventive dental health and treating gum disease - showing you correct home care and helping to keep your teeth and gums healthy.
Crowns and fixed bridges can be made from a variety of materials including, acrylic, ceramic or metal alloys. A combination of metal and ceramic is also available to maximise strength and simulate the appearance of natural teeth. A crown is a laboratory custom-made "cap" that helps improve the appearance and function of teeth.

Done work on my 2 front teeth with rushed consultation whilst I was waiting for treatment...but fillings on both front teeth that I did not really need...on anti-depressants at time...hygienist said my teeth were really thin at front and insinuated I was Bulimic...which I am not...later found out from another Dentist I have another tooth in gum above that tooth. Worse thing I ever done getting my teeth done there now my fillings in gap have stained and I am constantly obsessing about them and they are sensitive where they weren't before..stick to NHS. This has ruined my last 4 years...I had a bad

Tooth extraction... Dr Heath and the team are amazing! Very little (to none) pain or discomfort, I was dreading having it done! Didn't feel the injections in the mouth, felt nothing having the tooth pulled. Prices seem reasonable, worth every penny I felt. 100% recommended, especially if your nervous, staff make you feel at ease.
