From event-ready whitening to phased restorative care, every section includes timing tips.
Preventive care
Routine dental care is carried out to the highest possible standards, using the best materials and taking the time needed to carry out your care properly.
Preventive dentistry is the modern way of reducing the amount of dental treatment necessary to maintain a healthy mouth. Our aim is to work with you to prevent the need for treatment, and so avoid the traditional pattern of fillings and extractions.
It is likely that a course of treatment will be recommended to get your mouth into excellent condition, and a plan worked out to help you keep it that way.
Our specially trained dental hygienist will work with the dentist to ensure the best dental health advice is given and will teach you the tools and techniques to look after your teeth and gums in between visits.
Regular professional cleaning combined with your home care will help keep your mouth healthy. A clean and healthy mouth will improve your appearance, help you to keep your teeth and give you fresh breath.
Children can benefit from having their teeth polished. The hygienist can also apply fluoride gels and solutions to help prevent tooth decay.
Tooth whitening
Over time, teeth naturally darken and discolour but staining is made worse by such things as smoking, red wine, tea and coffee. Our safe, simple and effective treatment is an ideal way to create a natural, radiant smile and a more youthful appearance to boost your self-esteem.
We use Novon, a whitening compound that delivers improved whitening results over less treatment time.
Whether it's for a special occasion or simply because you deserve to treat yourself, contact us to arrange a free consultation.
New smiles
Knowing that teeth play such an important role in the appearance of your smile, we offer a variety of resources to help create a lasting smile.
Modern dental materials make it easier to achieve a natural-looking smile that suits your goals. Tooth-coloured fillings can replace traditional silver fillings comfortably and reliably, while bridges and crowns can restore gaps, chips, and cracks.
Most people have fillings of one sort or another in their mouths. Nowadays, fillings are not only functional, but can be natural-looking as well. Many people don't want silver fillings that show when they laugh or smile because they are more conscious of the way they look.
Unsightly silver fillings can now be replaced by natural-coloured fillings to improve the look of your smile. White fillings have always been considered less long lasting than silver amalgam fillings, but there are now new materials available with properties comparable to silver amalgam. These are proven to be very successful. Nicola can advise you on the life expectancy of your fillings.
Anti-snoring appliances
Snoring is now recognised as a serious health problem. Snorers and their partners do not often talk about their snoring problem or ask for snoring help, but at Castle Way Dental, help is at hand.
Castle Way Dental is part of a national network of trained dentists offering a comprehensive diagnosis and snoring treatment service who exclusively offer Sleepwell™, one of the most clinically proven appliances for snoring and mild or moderate sleep apnoea. Sleepwell™ is a light-weight mouthpiece, which is custom-made for each patient to wear at night.
Custom impressions, bite registration, and monitoring delivered by our trained clinicians.
We provide bedtime routines, cleaning tips, and review appointments to keep results on track.
Silver-free crowns and bridges
For the ultimate in aesthetics, restorations can be produced in materials such as zirconia, lithium disilicate and alumina oxide. Restorations include large-span bridges, adhesive Maryland type bridges and even inlay retained bridges and simple slide attachments.
These materials are well suited to the mouth, with light-reflecting qualities that help balance strength with a natural appearance.
We work closely with trusted labs to match translucency and strength to adjacent teeth.
From inlay-retained bridges to Maryland designs, we map all replacement options in one visit.
Wedding smiles
We know how important your wedding day is and we can work with you to help you smile with confidence on your big day.
Our Wedding Smiles service is designed to help you feel more confident in your smile before the big day. If there are aspects of your smile you would like to improve, we can talk you through the most suitable options.
We offer a carefully selected range of treatments to help you achieve a natural-looking result in time for your celebration.
Aligners, whitening, and finishing appointments are scheduled backwards from your date.
Composite bonding, contouring, and polishing make sure your smile photographs beautifully.
Little teeth
We want children to love coming to the dentist and to have healthy teeth and gums as they move into adulthood and the best time to start this is when they are young.
Your child's oral health is extremely important for them, and we can work with you to keep their teeth and gums healthy and strong, as well as teaching them how to look after their teeth for life.
To ensure that good oral health starts early, we provide NHS care for children up to the age of 18.
Hints and tips to keep your child's teeth healthy:
Cleaning your child's teeth:
Stand or sit behind your child, cradling their chin in your hand so you can reach their top and bottom teeth more easily. When the first teeth start to come through, use a children's toothbrush with a small smear of toothpaste. It is important to supervise your child's brushing until they are at least seven.
Once all the teeth have come through, use a small-headed soft toothbrush in small circular movements, and try to concentrate on one section at a time. Do not forget to brush gently behind the teeth and onto the gums. If possible, make tooth brushing a routine – preferably in the morning and last thing before your child goes to bed. Remember to encourage your child, as praise will often get results.
Free smile consultations
We offer free smile consultations with Jodi. Whether you want to ask about whitening, straighter teeth, or the treatment options available, she can help you understand what to expect.
Whatever your dental questions and concerns are, come and ask Jodi. She brings a wealth of experience in discussing and aiding treatment options and queries, and will try to answer all your questions about your smile – including the ones you do not want to ask the dentist.
Whether you want to talk about treatment availability, costs, oral hygiene, or diet-related concerns, Jodi can guide you through the next steps. There is no obligation to book further treatment afterwards, but if you would like to continue, she can help arrange it.
This service is available to both registered and non-registered patients at Castle Way Dental Care.
NHS treatment
In England and Wales the fees for NHS examinations and treatments are subsidised by the NHS, with patients covering the balance. These prices are fixed and sit within bands.
NHS dental care is free of charge for children under the age of 18, and for those under 19 and in full-time education. Dental care is also free on the NHS if you qualify for it under the NHS exempt criteria; for example, pregnant women qualify for free NHS dental care.
