Your Family Dentist for General Care in Folkestone

What is General Dentistry?

General dentistry focuses on maintaining the health of your teeth, gums, and mouth. It’s the foundation of good oral hygiene and essential for preventing more serious dental issues in the future.

Our general dental services include:

Routine dental check-ups
Professional teeth cleaning and polishing
Dental X-rays and digital diagnostics
Tooth-coloured fillings
Examinations for decay, gum disease, and oral cancer
Extractions (when needed)
Preventative advice and care plans

We recommend visiting us every 6 months to ensure your oral health stays on track.

When Should You Visit a Dentist?

You haven’t had a check-up in the last 6 months
You’re experiencing pain, bleeding gums, or tooth sensitivity
You want advice on maintaining or improving your oral health
You have a chipped or broken tooth
You’re interested in cosmetic or orthodontic treatments

Don’t wait until it hurts — prevention is always easier (and more affordable) than treatment.

Our Preventative Approach

We focus on preventing dental problems before they start. During your visit, we’ll:

Check for early signs of cavities or gum issues.

Remove plaque and tartar buildup.

Advise on brushing, flossing, and diet habits.

Monitor changes over time with detailed records.

Good oral health means fewer dental emergencies and a brighter, longer-lasting smile.
