Services
Following your referral, you will be contacted to arrange a mutually convenient appointment time for an initial consultation. At the consultation a thorough history, examination and assessment will be carried out. The various treatment options will be discussed in an informative and objective manner, based upon your needs and wants.
The natural teeth can be whitened using a bleaching technique. There are various ways of bleaching teeth, but one of the most effective techniques is using a home bleaching technique. Impressions are taken of the mouth and a thin, clear, tailor made tray is made that fits the teeth very well. Bleaching gel is applied to the inside of the tray and the trays are worn for a few hours a day or overnight.
Root canal treatment is carried out when the nerve (dental pulp) of a tooth has become damaged and/or infected by dental decay, trauma, tooth wear or a crack in the tooth. The damaged nerve tissues are removed painlessly and the inside of the tooth prepared very carefully to receive the root filling material.
Gum disease can be prevented and treated successfully by a course of hygiene treatment. The aim of the treatment is to find the best regime for the patient to achieve the highest level of oral hygiene and for the hygienist to remove any deposits of dental plaque or calculus from the teeth and roots in order to allow the gums to recover and heal.
Even if you have the best fillings, veneers, crowns or bridges, tooth decay can still occur at the margins where these restorations and the natural teeth meet. It is therefore essential that you clean the teeth to the highest level and control or cut down the amount of sugar in food and drinks in your diet.

I cannot put into words the difference that Specialist Dental Care has made to my self confidence and comfort. I dare to smile freely again, something I had not done for decades due to embarrassment about the state of my front teeth.
My Chan is incredibly calm, patient, professional and friendly. The practice is run smoothly and effectively and everyone is very kind and unruffled: altogether it is a safe and comfortable environment. I can chew my food safely and I can smile naturally. I can't imagine ever wanting to go anywhere else for dental care.

Specialist Dental Care is a highly professional practice. The friendliness of the whole team is outstanding. Consultations are thorough with treatment and options being fully explained and followed up in writing.
Having implants was a huge decision for me, it was many many years before I actually had the courage to trust another dentist (having previously had an extremely negative experience).
I have had lots of visits now and have always had the same calm, friendly and highly professional experience. Mr Chan and the whole team are truly outstanding and I cannot recommend them highly enough.

I have been seeing Mr Chan for nearly 20 years, travelling far to make appointments. I have had a lot of complex work done in that time, never have I felt any discomfort, nor have I experienced any post problems from the work. His expertise, knowledge & professionalism is outstanding. He is supported by an excellent team who he should feel proud of.

I was guided to SDC in Ilkley by a friend who had undertaken treatment. I visited the practise and was greeted with a warm welcome by staff on duty and then discussed my implant treatment with Mr Martin Chan . Everything is so professionally done from each visit ( even though I sadly had to halt treatment half way through due to the pandemic ) at the start to the finish. I highly recommend the practise for looking after me through the pandemic and getting me to a point of now having my perfect teeth and smile - Thank you all so much.
