24 Dec Put your fear of dental practitioners to bed with our caring dentist in Islington

Dentophobia is more common than you would think, experienced by adults and children alike. Feeling scared or anxious before seeing the dentist can stem from a frightening childhood trauma or previous encounters with impersonal practitioners who did not prioritise a patient’s well-being.

Let us restore your faith in the dentist in Islington with our second-to-none array of personalised services, our high quality of care and our friendly and professional bedside manner. The proof is in the pudding, and we boast loyal customers who have been with us since our inception in 1981. 

First time patients and anxious patients

If you are new to our practice or have not seen us for a while, it is perfectly normal to feel some trepidation when you take a seat in the dentist’s chair.

If the idea of a dentist in Islington probing the inside of your mouth is too much for you to bear, we can discuss options to help you relax and reach a calm state, such as sedation or hypnotherapy which allow you to manage your feelings of terror and dread.

If your teeth and oral health are fine, a routine check-up is a quick 30-minute session that includes an examination of your teeth and gums, cancer screening and finally, advice on how to improve upon your dental hygiene.

Affordable dentistry that fits your budget

People avoid visiting their local dental practitioner regularly for a variety of reasons, one of them being the cost.

If you can’t afford dental care, or are covered by an insurance company who does not feature us on their network, come and have a chat with us anyway. We offer flexible payment plans that your budget may be able to accommodate.

Whatever you do, don’t forsake your oral health, because an unhealthy mouth in the future will restrict many avenues of your life, to the point where it could become intolerable.

What treatments do we provide as a dentist in Islington?

We perform various types of procedures at our practice, which are not only limited to dentistry but also include a range of facial rejuvenation treatments to help you look and feel years younger.

From filling cavities and straightening irregularly-shaped teeth, to brightening discoloured pearly whites, we can attend to all of your dental requirements, with a smile.

After your session with us, we do not just send you on your way without educating you about your teeth. We teach you how to take care of your mouth, and prevent the onslaught of an array of recurring common oral diseases by incorporating our dental hygiene best practices into your teeth cleaning ritual.

Learn what plaque is, why it’s public enemy number one for your gums and teeth and how to implement the most effective ways of removing harmful germs and bacteria.  

When will I first start seeing results?

The answer to this question depends on the dental work you are having done. Some procedures, such as tooth whitening, provide immediate improvements, while it might take months before you can boast a new tooth with a dental implant, but the long-awaited results are worth the long recovery.
