Everything we do is therefore about providing modern, caring and ethical dentistry for the long term benefit of all the family.
For a Happy, Healthy and Confident Smile
Routine dentistry takes the form of regular dental check-ups, x-rays (when necessary) and dental hygiene appointments. Regular visits to the dentist for routine dentistry allows us to help you benefit from healthy gums and teeth, fresh breath and a smile to be proud of, as well as to pick up any dental problems before they worsen. By keeping on top of your oral health care, we can nip any dental problems in the bud and help you avoid the traditional pattern of fillings and extractions which often happens when issues are ignored.
What Happens at a Routine Dental Check-Up?
During your routine examination, your dentist will carry out a thorough assessment of your teeth, gums and mouth. This includes checking for signs of tooth decay, gum disease, and any other concerns. X-rays may be taken when clinically necessary. You will also receive clear, honest advice on how to maintain your oral health at home.
We offer both NHS and private appointments, and our friendly reception team can help you choose the right option for your needs. Please get in touch or call us on 020 8563 7177 to find out more.
Results and treatment requirements vary between patients. A consultation and examination is always required before any treatment can be recommended.

What is the difference between NHS and private dental treatment?
Yes, we are currently accepting new NHS patients. Please call us on 020 8563 7177 or visit our website to register. We also welcome new private patients and offer a comprehensive range of private dental treatments.
Does Castelnau Dentists accept new NHS patients?
A routine dental check-up should not cause any discomfort. Your dentist will always explain what they are doing and will work gently and carefully. If you are anxious about visiting the dentist, please let us know and we will take extra time to help you feel relaxed and comfortable.
What happens at a dental check-up?
At your check-up, your dentist will examine your teeth, gums, and soft tissues to check for any signs of decay, gum disease, or other concerns. We may take x-rays if needed. You will also receive a full oral health assessment, and we will discuss any treatment recommendations with you clearly before proceeding. A check-up is a relaxed, no-pressure appointment.
Do dental check-ups hurt?
A routine dental check-up is not painful. Your dentist will gently examine your mouth and will let you know about anything they find. If any treatment is needed, it will always be discussed with you first, and we can arrange a separate appointment. If you are anxious, please let us know and we will do everything we can to make you comfortable.
What if I have dental anxiety?
We welcome nervous and anxious patients and understand that visiting the dentist can feel daunting for some people. Our team takes a gentle, patient approach and will always work at your pace. Please let us know about your concerns when you book, and we will ensure your visit is as comfortable and stress-free as possible. We never rush appointments.
