Preventing tooth decay and gum decease is not just better than cure but cheaper too. Visiting your dentist and hygienist regularly is part of a good preventative / maintenance plan.

Regular 'Hygiene Therapy' sessions with your hygienist aims to prevent gum decease, tooth decay and dental plaque. Our experienced hygienists will professionally clean your teeth for that fresh feeling mouth and advise you on the best way to brush and floss your teeth as well as on diet, so that you can improve your oral health and the appearance of your teeth.

If you'd like whiter teeth, we offer a full range of teeth whitening services to give you a brighter, more confident smile. From gels you apply at home, to surgery-based deep-bleaching treatment, professional tooth whitening is the safe and effective way to remove stains and discolouration, lightening your teeth to the whiteness you want.

Professional teeth whitening can be carried out using a variety of methods - the one we choose will depend on the nature and extent of the discolouration. Most tooth whitening gels use hydrogen peroxide; as this breaks down, oxygen enters the enamel of your teeth and dissolves the discoloured pigments. Tooth whitening is a safe way of improving the natural appearance of your teeth and giving you a whiter, brighter smile.

At Viva Dental, we are seeing an increasing number of patients who want to improve their appearance with brighter looking teeth. Tooth whitening enhances the natural shade of your teeth and can completely transform your smile.

Dentures may be recommended to patients who have lost a number of teeth. There are various different denture designs and, although most conventional dentures are removable, some rely on bonding or clasping onto teeth or dental implants.

Restore your confidence
Dentures can help patients by restoring their ability to chew and creating a natural facial appearance by providing support for the lips and cheeks (something that can be affected when a person has missing teeth). Tooth loss can also affect a person's speech, with dentures making patients better able to pronounce certain words and sounds. Most importantly perhaps, dentures provide an immediate and afford able way of restoring a person's self-esteem.

Your comfort is our priority
At Viva Dental, we have extensive experience of producing natural-looking, bespoke dentures that are secure and comfortable to wear, giving patients confidence in their fully restored smile. We are able to craft full or partial dentures from a range of materials in our onsite prosthetics laboratory.

As a family-run practice, we appreciate that you'll always put your children's well-being first. You can trust us to do the same. Our aim is to provide your child with the best dental care available to secure their long-term dental health. We ask patients to bring their children with them from birth so that we can see them regularly to help them grow up free from dental disease.

Many people are afraid to go to the dentist because they have had a bad experience in childhood. At Viva Dental, we take particular care to ensure children have a positive relationship with their dental team. We don't believe in forcing them to do anything but in keeping their treatment pain free and educating them so that they take responsibility in caring for their own teeth.

If you've got a missing tooth, or teeth, here's a new alternative to a denture or a fixed bridge. Dental implants are an increasingly popular and highly effective way to replace missing teeth. They're permanent, easy to fix and are colour-matched to blend in with the natural colour of your teeth.
