Restorative dentistry in Hendon

Restorative dentistry repairs teeth that are decayed, broken, worn or missing. The aim is to get you comfortable, keep as much of your natural tooth as possible, and give you a result that looks natural.

White fillings

When decay is caught early, a filling is usually all that is needed. We use tooth-coloured composite material that bonds to the tooth and is matched to its shade, so the filling is hard to see. White fillings from £100.

Crowns

A crown is a cap that covers the whole tooth. It is used to strengthen a tooth that is badly broken, heavily filled or has had root canal treatment. Crowns are made to match the shape and colour of your other teeth. Crowns from £565. If a crown has come loose, we can often re-cement it for £115.

Root canal treatment

If the nerve inside a tooth becomes infected or inflamed, it can cause severe toothache or an abscess. Root canal treatment removes the infected tissue, cleans and seals the inside of the tooth, and saves a tooth that would otherwise need to come out. The treatment is done under local anaesthetic and usually feels similar to having a filling. Root canal treatment from £340.

Veneers

Veneers are thin shells bonded to the front of the teeth to improve their shape, colour or size, or to cover chips. Veneers from £665.

Dentures

Modern dentures are more comfortable and natural-looking than many people expect. We make full and partial dentures. Dentures from £540 per arch. If you would rather have a fixed option, see dental implants.

Extractions

We always try to save a tooth, but sometimes taking it out is the best option. Extractions from £200, surgical extractions from £350.

Gum treatment

Advanced gum disease (periodontitis) can loosen teeth and lead to tooth loss. Our periodontal treatment costs £600. Read Why do my gums bleed? for the early warning signs.

Frequently asked questions

Is root canal treatment painful?
With local anaesthetic, most patients find it no more uncomfortable than a filling. It is the infection, not the treatment, that causes the pain.

How long does a crown last?
With good care, a crown can last many years. Regular check-ups let us spot any problems early.

Can a broken tooth always be saved?
Often, yes. It depends on how much tooth is left and whether the root is healthy. We will give you the options after examining it.
