You’re in the right place.
From first consultation through to a 6-month review that confirms the tooth is healing.
1
Consultation
Assessment, imaging and a clear explanation of your options — so you understand exactly what’s happening and why.
2
Expert treatment
Water laser, CBCT and microscope-guided care — often completed in a single visit.
3
Follow-up care
A check-in call a few days later, then a 6-month review to confirm the tooth is healing.
Most referred patients aren’t in pain yet — but waiting lets the problem spread. Early treatment saves the natural tooth.
Some cases benefit from an additional level of specialist expertise. Your dentist and specialist work together to ensure more complex treatment receives the focused attention it needs.

For referring dentists
For emergency and urgent presentations, we aim to see you within 48 hours. Routine consultations may have a different lead time depending on availability.
In most cases, yes. Our technology and process are built around completing treatment in a single session wherever clinically appropriate.
An endodontist is a specialist focused only on saving natural teeth — with additional training, equipment and experience in complex root canal cases beyond general dentistry.
That’s a common and valid reason to be seen. Early assessment can prevent the problem progressing and improves the chance of saving the tooth.
We use modern anaesthetic and technology to keep you comfortable throughout. Most patients report the procedure itself is no more uncomfortable than a standard filling.
Yes — happy gas and IV sedation are both available for patients who would prefer extra support during treatment.
“Take a breath. You’re in specialist hands now — we’ll talk you through every step.”
