General Dentistry

Shire Dental focuses strongly on preventative dentistry as many common dental issues like gum disease and tooth decay can be avoided with the right dental care.

Sometimes dietary advice can make all the difference in avoiding cavities. If a tooth does become severely infected, prompt root canal therapy can often save it, preserving it for years to come. Our dentures are custom designed for comfort and functionality, and modern dentures can look great.

Wisdom teeth can cause problems, and we can remove them gently when necessary.

We can offer treatments to address other problems like teeth clenching and grinding (bruxism) by providing neuromuscular dentistry, ensuring your facial muscles and especially jaw joints can operate smoothly and comfortably. 

Many people have a sleep disorder called sleep apnoea that can negatively impact overall health without treatment. We can provide custom-made oral appliances to help address mild and moderate snoring and sleep apnoea so that you and those close to you can sleep more comfortably and soundly. 

If you or another family member is keen on sports, we strongly recommend a custom mouthguard. They are comfortable and provide excellent cushioning against blows to the mouth.
