Ballymena Specialist Dental Clinic

An adult check-up is an appointment for a dentist to assess your oral health by examining the mouth, teeth and gums. Your dentist will also assess your mouth for any signs of oral cancer. Regular check-ups are essential to help you maintain a healthy smile.

A simple X-ray is a digital image taken of the inside of your mouth, to help dentists diagnose any underlying problems with your teeth.

A complex X-ray is a panoramic image taken of the entire mouth, including the teeth, gums, jaw and surrounding tissue.

The removal of a tooth.

A tooth filling is a treatment used to fill cavities, where decay is cleared and replaced with a tooth coloured material to restore damage discreetly.

Teeth whitening (at home kit) is a cosmetic treatment carried out at home to brighten teeth and remove stains using an approved at-home teeth-whitening kit.

Dentures is a set of acrylic false teeth which sit over your gums to replace missing teeth. They are removable and made to look as natural as possible.

Dental implants are a long-term, fixed solution for replacing missing teeth. An implant is a titanium screw, which is surgically placed into your jawbone, replacing your missing tooth root. A false tooth is then placed on top of the implant to give you a natural looking tooth.

A tooth crown is an artificial tooth-shaped cap which fits over the tooth to protect or improve the appearance of the tooth. Once a crown is fixed in place, it will look, feel and function like any other tooth making it a long-term solution for a damaged tooth.

Dental bridges are a long-term, fixed solution to replace missing teeth by connecting teeth either side of the gap to support a false tooth.
