Based on the core principals of

QUALITY – SERVICE – EXPERIENCE

Integral Dental may be a practice for you!

You are Unique

You are an Individual

You have your own Dental needs

By looking at this website something may have attracted your attention; a recommendation, looking for something different, not happy with present dental care.

It is not the aim of this website to give you detailed information of all dental treatments, diseases etc.

Without a comprehensive examination only then can a treatment plan be made. Without getting to know you and your needs nothing can be done!!

Of course, the only treatment which is applicable is YOURS. For your dental needs.

Whole body dentistry for a whole body you.

Firstly, a decision must be made whether to have an initial consultation or emergency appointment if required.

The initial consultation will give a brief overview of what we have, as well as a full medical history.

It will include a head and neck cancer screening of the soft and hard tissues.

It will then be followed by a general examination of:-

1. Your jaw joints and Dental function
2. The health of your periodontal tissues gums and supporting bone.
3. The health of your teeth and any previous restorations such as fillings, crown, bridges implants and cosmetic implications.
4. Low dose digital x rays may be taken and the use of an intra oral camera will document all the presenting oral tissues. Further diagnosis may be required such as 3D CBCT scans and swab modules etc.
5. Results, advice, a general overview will be given and an initial treatment plan when required.

Your treatment plan will be based on the following protocols:-

1. When any disease is diagnosed, remove or bring under control and stabilise.
2. Once stabilised based on the principles of do no harm, minimally invasive, as compatible to human tissue as possible a rebuild programme can start. This can take weeks, months, years, depending on various factors such as complexity, finances etc.
3. A brief overview of treatment planning starts with the basics of

• A: Disease free.
• B: Jaw joint function
• C: Gum and bone health.
• D: Teeth health
• E: Cosmetic & Compatibility

Trying to restore all the tissues as near to nature as we planned.
