This is a great method for those who want a perfect smile in a matter of weeks.

Lumineers and No-prep Veneers
Conservative approaches like Prep less, No prep or Lumineers TM veneers means you could have a beautiful smile without preparing your teeth. This means no tooth reduction, and no drilling or injection! The process is totally reversible since the teeth underneath are untouched.
Not everyone is suitable for prep less, No prep or Lumineers TM veneers. We advise you to come in for a consultation to see if you have worn, chipped or irregular teeth that could benefit from this conservative technique.
Porcelain Crowns
Advances in dentistry means that severely broken down teeth can now be restored with strong natural looking porcelain crowns. New Lava crowns are metal free and will not suffer from the black lines one sees with traditional crowns. This is a great method for cracked teeth and can help re-strengthen a weak tooth. Get in touch with us today to book your treatment. We have patients who travel to us from areas such as Rochester, Gillingham and Chatham.
Cosmetic Bonding
Dentistry has moved towards adhesive dentistry. This means beautiful, natural looking dental materials can be used to replace lost or broken tooth structure. These materials can be bonded in place; meaning less tooth structure has to be removed.
Gum Lift
For those who have a low or uneven gum line when smiling- gum reshaping can be carried out to give you the smile you want. This is painless and can be carried out before porcelain veneer placement. Latest techniques in facial aesthetics- could mean that a small amount of Botox could also solve this problem.

Safe and predictable techniques can be used to smoothen out facial lines. This popular technique smoothens crows feet, frown lines, neck lines and other signs of ageing. It is totally safe and will definitely make you look younger – in an affordable and easy way.
Dermal Fillers
Artistic flair couple with safe hands allows our clinicians to plump out those lips, cheeks and chin to create a more youthful appearance. It is also great at reducing the nose to mouth lines.
Skin Peels
Does your skin look dull? A fresh healthier look can be achieved safely with chemical peels. All dead skin cells are removed safely and comfortably resulting in tighter and smoother skin.
Implant Dentistry
What are implants?
Implants are titanium rods that act as a replacement for a natural root. This then supports a crown so that it looks natural in your mouth. Implants can be used to replace one or multiple crowns, as well as bridgework and loose dentures. Dr Mohsin Uddin has carried out a one year hand on training programme in implants under a world renowned Harley Street Clinician. Further to this he is the youngest ever clinician to be accepted on the highly competitive FGDP Diploma in Implant Dentistry. This is recognised by the General Dental Council as the Gold Standard in Implant Training.
Single Tooth Implant
When you have a small gap at the front or back of your mouth- or if you have a single failing tooth- a single implant is an ideal solution. Implants have proven to be very safe, predictable and long lasting. It does not require the adjacent teeth to be drilled and therefore acts independently to other teeth.
Multiple Implants
When you have multiple missing teeth or failing teeth - dental implants will be necessary to create a predictable solution. This can help support a bridge or denture as part of a smile makeover or full mouth reconstruction.
Loose dentures
You are not alone. Most people do not get on with lower dentures. Dentures require support to stop them moving. This can be from teeth, gums or both. If you have no teeth, then the gum and bone shrink over time. This creates a constantly loose denture. You can stop the bone shrinking by placing implants - which can then support the denture. This will give you dentures that are great once again for chewing, speaking and smiling confidently.
Immediate Teeth
This is a great concept when replacing a failing tooth. Sometimes the failing tooth can be removed and an implant placed straight away. If we can we will place a temporary crown that will look good and function well. If we can't place the crown that day then an alternative form of replacement will be given so you don’t walk out toothless.
Teeth in a hour/Same day teeth
This is a relatively new concept that allows all failing teeth to be replaced by predictable implant placement on the same day. You will walk out with teeth that look good and function well, giving you the confidence to talk, chew and smile confidently.
Sedation
Many people fear going to the dentist or have a dental phobia. Sedation is a great tool for those that want to be a little relaxed whilst having their treatment. The client is still awake but feels drunk and carefree. When the procedure is finished- you feel refreshed and do not remember the episode or any pain.
Intravenous sedation is great for lengthy implant work and is totally safe in a controlled environment. Be aware- we will try to wean you off sedation once we feel you have become more confident and gained trust.
Orthodontics
Teeth straightening
Dentistry is advancing at such rate that traditional metal braces no longer have to be the way to straighten teeth. Children and adults can benefit from the techniques described and each one will benefit from the confidence a straighter, more youthful smile gives.
Inman Aligner
The Inman aligner is a removable appliance that applies gentle pressure to straighten teeth. Being removable- it can be taken out when eating and cleaning your teeth. It is a great method of straightening teeth before simple whitening, or even veneers. This makes the veneer treatment more conservative and less tooth structure has to be removed. The result: a healthier, longer lasting and more beautiful smile.
Invisalign
The ultimate in cosmetic braces solutions. This is a system whereby a series of clear aligners can be worn- resulting a straighter more confident smile. This method is very popular with those seeking a near invisible way of straightening their teeth. There is no need for wires or brackets and the clear aligners move your teeth by using gentle pressure week by week. A computer simulation shows your predicted final smile before we actually start treatment so you can be confident that you are on your way to the smile you have always wanted.
Social Six
This is the term given to any form of brace treatment that deals with just the front six teeth. This can be top or bottom teeth and all the methods on this site can be used to create a straighter smile at the front of the mouth. All treatments provided under the social six umbrella are generally quicker than traditional methods.
Six-month smile
This is a new technique that allows straighter teeth to be achieved within a period of 6 months. This is safe and painless and after a consultation, we can see if you are appropriate for the six-month smile.
Lingual Braces
These are like conventional braces but fit on the inside of your teeth. They are hidden being on the inside- and great at creating a healthy perfect smile. The Lingual system can be used to treat a crooked smile at the front or the whole smile very discreetly. This is a very skilled area of dentistry and requires your clinician to have the appropriate training. Dr Marco Carugatti is a very talented and highly skilled individual and you can see some of his work in our gallery.
Damon Brace
This is the latest version of a conventional brace. It is fitted on the outside and is great at straightening really crooked smiles in quick time. They have a sleeker design than conventional braces and use low friction to create a quicker, more comfortable method of straightening teeth. This method creates a perfect healthy smile in quicker time than conventional braces.
