Orthodontic Treatment

Orthodontic Treatment

Orthodontic treatment is not only for teenagers, there has been a huge increase in the number of adult patients both male and female straightening their teeth. It is never too late!. See our Orthodontic treatment page to find out more about what we can offer.

Invisalign®

Invisalign®

Invisalign® is a clear brace system which uses a sequence of computer-designed aligners made from durable BPA-free plastic to gradually move your teeth by applying pressure in precise locations. See our Invisalign page to find out more.

Veneers

Veneers

Veneers are a thin covering which corrects the position, shape and colour of the tooth and are often made from porcelain or ceramic. They can also be made from composite resin or gold.

Crowns

Crowns

Crowns cover a tooth in their entirety and are suitable to correct the position, shape and colour of a tooth that is heavily restored. Like veneers, they can be made from ceramic, metal fused to ceramic or gold. See our dental crowns page to learn more about dental crowns.

Bridges

Bridges

If you have a missing tooth, Bridges are one way to restore this gap. Bridges use one or more teeth in order to replace a missing tooth. There are many types of bridges, some requiring no or minimal drilling, to some which require the tooth to be fully prepared in order to make space.

White Fillings

White Fillings

If you have silver fillings which you would like replaced for cosmetic reasons, white fillings made from composite resin are an excellent way to restore the tooth back to its natural appearance.

Inlays and Onlays

Inlays and Onlays

For larger fillings, inlays and onlays offer excellent solutions. Custom made in a dental lab from ceramic, composite, gold or metal.

Dental Implants

Dental Implants

Replace missing teeth or secure your dentures with the latest technology in replacement teeth with our award-winning private dentist, Dr Arfeen Aslam. See our Dental Implant page to find out more.

Tooth Whitening

Tooth Whitening

Brighten your smile with a simple, safe and cost-effective treatment. Performed by GDC regulated clinicians using tooth whitening gel produced to EU standards, we can brighten your smile in a safe and effective manner. See our tooth whitening page to find out more.

Bespoke Dentures

Bespoke Dentures

For patients who are missing all or some of their teeth and are looking for an affordable alternative to dental implants. Dentures are a removable appliance to replace the missing teeth.

Cosmetic Dentistry Prices

The cost of cosmetic dentistry can vary on quite a large scale depending upon your requirements. The same also applies to the time required. For example, you can improve your smile from as little as £250 using tooth whitening over 2 short appointments. However, if you need to remove and replace multiple teeth across your entire mouth then this treatment may cost in excess of £10,000 and take multiple appointments and sometimes take a whole year to reach the final desired result.

The best way to find out the cost and time required to improve your smile would be to get in touch with us and book in for a consultation to discuss your needs. At this appointment options will be discussed with you and a custom treatment plan created specifically tailored around your needs and requirements.

    After my visit this morning, I am pleased to review that the reception staff were very friendly indeed, and the dental treatment I received from Tendai Manangazira and his assistant was exceptional. They were very professional with their work, and also explaining in great detail how to go forward with maintaining dental hygiene. They are both a great credit to The Vallance dental team.
  • Avatar charlotte bithell ★★★★★ 2 months ago
    thank you very much to everyone at the practice who helped me get sorted out with my root canal treatment last month and yesterday. The dentist I saw was Jonathan Skidmore and dental nurse Zoe and they made me feel so welcomed, looked after and felt that I was in really good hands. The treatment has been a massive success and I’m happy with the outcome. I also wanted to say thank you to Abdul who organised my appointment and I was able to bring me in at short notice due to my symptoms, I was extremely … More grateful for this! I work in private medical care and I often forget how daunting it can be like to be the patient, but the level of care, knowledge and professionalism has been second to none and I really wanted to say I heartfelt thank you, for not making me want to dread dental treatment! Looking forward to continuing with more treatment later in the year.

    I have been a patient at the Valance practice fo over 40 years. I have never had any problems or negative experiences with the treatment provided. I always get to speak to an advisor and if I need emergency treatment they always fit me in . All the dentists that have treated me always provide advice and support that is beneficial to me . I would highly recommend this practice to family and friends
  • Avatar Charlotte Evans ★★★★★ 2 months ago
    Such a lovely dentist with lovely staff. They make you feel so at ease and explain everything very clearly. I never dread coming to the dentist. I usually see Tiphanie and Natalie who are both super friendly and super professional. Can’t recommend enough.

    I had not visited in nearly 2 years so visiting today and meeting Louisa, who was very professional and clearly is passionate about orthodontics, made me feel calm and worry free, Pauline aided her with precision and really went out of her way to make sure that I had everything I needed for my assessment. Keep up the fantastic work you all are doing for our community. See you soon
  • Avatar Heather Hayes ★★★★★ 3 months ago
    I saw Karim to have bonding done. I was a bit unsure as I've had bonding fail elsewhere, but I had a consultation and he was very understanding and reassuring.
    Bonding is back on and I am very very happy with his work. It looks and feels much better than work I've had done previously, and it's not failed!
    A big thank you to Sue aswell for her eagle eye to detail.
    You gave me my smile back,thank you.

  • What is Cosmetic Dentistry?

    Cosmetic Dentistry is a broad term that includes any treatment which involves improvement of the appearance of the teeth and smile. This can include everything from straightforward whitening cases, to replacing all the teeth in the mouth.

  • What is the difference between Cosmetic and General Dentistry?

    General dentistry focuses on the function of the teeth, but cosmetic dentistry the focus is on both the function and the appearance. Cosmetic Dentistry isn’t taught in detail at University and dentists often embark on lengthy postgraduate courses if they choose to focus on providing high quality cosmetic treatments.

  • Who Needs Cosmetic Dentistry?

    No one strictly needs cosmetic dentistry, however many of us are unhappy with aspects of our smile which can affect confidence. If a patient is looking to improve the appearance of their teeth and smile then they would benefit from cosmetic dental treatment

  • How Long Does Cosmetic Dentistry Last for?

    It is difficult to answer such a broad question as it depends upon the treatment. Some treatments like straightening with braces can last for life but require regular wear of retainers to keep the teeth in their new position. Anything that replaces or repairs a tooth will have a time when it will need replacement or refreshing. For example, if a patient looks after a dental implant really well, it can last over 20 years. Some treatments like composite bonding may need refreshing every 5 years.

  • What Is the Benefit of Cosmetic Dentistry?

    We find that if a patient is happy and comfortable with their smile it can really boost their confidence. This new confidence can lead to all sorts of benefits in life.

  • How Much does Cosmetic Dentistry Cost?

    There is a broad range in cost depending upon individual treatment needs. Prices start from as little as £90 for replacing a metal filling. Replacing all the teeth in the mouth with an “all on 4” implant can cost over £10,000 per arch. The best way to find out more is to book for a consultation and have a discussion covering your needs and smile goal.
