Some problems need more than a check-up. This is the care we provide when a tooth breaks after hours, when the gums are the problem rather than the teeth, when grinding is wearing the teeth down, or when snoring and interrupted breathing are keeping you tired.
Emergencies, gum disease, grinding and sleep
Emergency Dentistry
A dental emergency gets worse by the hour, not by the week. Severe toothache, a broken tooth, swelling: ring us and we will do our best to see you the same day rather than book you in next fortnight.

Gum Disease Treatment
Gum disease starts as bleeding gums and ends as lost teeth, and the line between the two matters. Gingivitis reverses completely. Periodontitis takes bone that does not grow back. Which side of that line you are on is decided by how early it is found.

Sleep Apnoea Treatment
Sleep apnoea interrupts your breathing through the night, and the symptom most people notice is exhaustion during the day. Where a sleep physician has diagnosed the obstructive type, we make the oral appliance that holds the airway open.

Grinding happens while you are asleep, so the evidence is worn-flat teeth and a sore jaw in the morning rather than anything you can feel at the time. A guard made to your own teeth takes the force instead of the enamel.

Whole-Health Approach
Sleep apnoea and gum disease affect more than your mouth. Both are linked to wider health problems, and both are treatable here.
Personalised Treatment Plans
Treatment starts with an examination and digital x-rays or an OPG where one is needed, so what is recommended is based on what the images show.

For mild to moderate obstructive apnoea, yes. The appliance holds the lower jaw forward so the airway stays open, and for a lot of people it is what they will actually wear when CPAP has been abandoned. The diagnosis stays with your physician; we make and fit the device.
