Reasons to Choose Us

The highly qualified specialists as well as the support staff are dedicated in providing the very best care in comfortable and modern surroundings using the latest technologies. We can therefore offer your patients the latest developments as a referral practice dedicated to excellence in these fields.
​
Referral procedure
​
All referrals can now be done via our secure online referral process or by post. Please note email referrals are no longer compliant with GDPR. When we receive your referral, your patient will be contacted to make an appointment. The initial consultation will take 30-60 minutes and will consist of medical and social background information, a full clinical examination and radiographs to assess the extent of the patient's concerns. All the options and choices available to the patient will be discussed in detail with patient. If it is a particularly complex case a further visit may be necessary as well taking study models or a CBCT scan at the practice.
​
A full report and x-rays taken at the consultation/during treatment will be sent to you, the referring dentist, and the patient will have a written estimate of the fees involved.
​
When the patient is ready to proceed with treatment we will make all the necessary appointments and will send you regular reports on the progress of your patient.
​
During treatment at Centre Of Dental Excellence, the patient is always reminded of the necessity of continuing to visit you, their general dental practitioner, for regular examinations and treatment.
​

Maintaining Our Standards
​
We are regularly monitored by unannounced inspections conducted by the Government's Quality Control
​
Our management systems help us achieve our quality goals. They define each practice member's responsibilities when looking after you.
​
-
We will do all we can to look after your general well-being. We will ask you about your general health, and about any medicines being taken. This helps us to treat you safely. We keep all information about you confidential.
-
Contamination control is also essential to the safety of our patients. Every practice member receives training in practice systems for contamination control.
​
-
We screen all patients for mouth cancer at routine checkups. We ask patients about tobacco and alcohol use because they increase your oral cancer risk and may affect the success of implant treatments.
​
-
Practice working methods are reviewed regularly at meetings. We encourage all staff to make suggestions for improving the care we give patients.
​
-
We regularly ask patients for their views on our services. We deal promptly with the information we gain in this way and use it to enhance our patients' experiences of The Implant Centre.
​
-
All dentists in the practice take part in continuing professional education far exceeding the General Dental Council's requirements. We aim to keep up-to-date with current thinking on all aspects of general dentistry, including preventative care which reduces your need for treatment.
​
-
All staff joining the practice are given training in practice-wide procedures. Once a year, there is an individual review of training needs for everyone in the practice.
​
-
All members of the practice know of the need to ensure that dentists are working safely. In the highly unlikely event that a dentist in this practice becomes unfit to practise, we will ensure that concerns are investigated and, if necessary, acted upon.

Xian Hu attended with a fractured root of the UR7 supporting a three unit bridge. The bridge was sectioned and UR7 with associated Pontic sectioned. I recommended replacing a single unit molar tooth to provide functional occlusion. Sinus grafting using lateral window was required 3 months after the extraction. A dental implant will be placed in 9 months time.

Case: Endodontic Treatment of lower left second molar tooth
​
John was referred to us with a view to placing dental implants in the lower left second premolar (LL5) and lower left first molar (LL6) sites. On examination, the lower left second molar tooth (LL7) required root canal re-treatment due to the presence of an infection and a suboptimal quality of root filling. The LL5 and LL6 will be extracted and dental implants planned in these sites in due course.

Case: Bone Grafting
Before
After
Martin was referred with a deep pocket around the Lower right molar tooth. The tooth was marked as a questionable tooth. The option of extraction and replacement with an implant was discussed but there is nothing better than saving your own tooth for as long as possible. Bone grafting was done around the tooth using graft materials derived from animal sources and the tooth was assessed 8 months later. The xray shows great bone fill and no pockets.
