OUR SERVICES
Whitening
Teeth whitening is an effective way to brighten your smile and remove stains caused by food, drink, or lifestyle habits. We offer professional Zoom Teeth Whitening in our surgery, as well as convenient at-home whitening solutions, helping you achieve a natural, radiant smile safely and comfortably.
Dental Hygiene Direct
Our dental hygienists play a key role in preventative care, helping you keep your teeth and gums healthy and avoid problems like decay and gum disease. With direct access dental hygiene, you can book an appointment with our hygienists without leaving your current dentist, making it easier to take control of your oral health.
Veneers
Veneers are thin, custom-made shells that are carefully bonded to the front of your teeth to enhance their appearance. They can correct chips, gaps, stains, or minor misalignment, improving the colour, shape, and overall symmetry of your smile while giving a natural, polished, and long-lasting result.
Ceramic Crowns and Bridges
A crown is the ideal restoration for a broken tooth or a tooth with a previously large filling. Completely covering the damaged tooth, a crown helps to restore the natural shape, size and function. A bridge is used to replace several missing teeth. Ceramic crowns and bridges are designed to naturally complement your smile.
White Fillings
White or tooth coloured fillings are designed to blend in with the rest of your smile. Metal free, minimally invasive and preserving more of your natural tooth, white fillings provide a natural looking way to repair chipped or broken teeth.
Implants
Dental implants are an artificial substitute for the root portion of your natural tooth and are anchored in place to support a crown or a bridge or to secure a denture firmly in place. Implants are made from titanium, a material that is well tolerated by the tissues.
Invisible Straightening
Invisible aligners are an ideal solution for mild to moderate crowding or protrusion of the front teeth. Treatment is typically fast, safe and offers excellent value compared to many other orthodontic options.
Using a series of custom-made, discreet aligners, your teeth are gently guided into a more balanced, natural position over a matter of weeks. Most cases are completed within 6-16 weeks, depending on complexity. Because the aligners are removable, you can take them out for eating, drinking and special occasions, allowing treatment to fit easily around your lifestyle.

Simon Fraser
I have been a patient at White Dental Hygiene and Loughridge Dental Surgery for many years. I, and my family have always had excellent clinical treatment from Chris, Heather and Rita, including a few dental emergencies over the years, one as recently as a few months ago when I received much needed advice and treatment outside hours. The whole team are outstanding and go out of their way to ensure that a trip to the dentist/hygienist is calming, confidence building and contributes positively to my own and my family’s dental health.
