Root Canal Treatment (Endodontics)

Who provides the treatment?

Root canal treatments are carried out Professor Reza Roudsari.

How long is the appointment?

The treatment time is approximately 2 hours. The consultation fee for endodontic treatment is £95.

How much will it cost?

The cost of a root canal treatment is £695. If your tooth is already root treated and you require a re-treatment, the cost will be £795. Additional charges will apply to cut through crowns or bridges or for removal of a post.

Once root treatment is completed we will place an appropriate filling.  Depending on the status of your tooth, we may still advise you to have a crown made by your referring dentist.

In cases where a tooth is investigated but root canal treatment is not recommended (for example where there is a fracture) the cost of the treatment is £245.

Dental Implants

Who provides the treatment?

Implants are provided by Mr David Ellis.

What kind of dental implants do you use?

There are over 800 systems of dental implants available worldwide. We use Straumann dental implants. They are the market leaders in terms of research and innovation to backup their high success rate.

How long is the appointment?

You will need an initial consultation to assess if your bone and gum is suitable for dental implants. When booked for implant placement, the appointment is approximately 40 minutes for a single dental implant. The implant is then left to heal within your bone. A small second surgery may be needed to “expose” the dental implant and start the construction of the prosthesis. The second surgery is approximately 20 minutes for a single dental implant.

Depending on the type of the prosthesis being made over the dental implants, you will need a number of further appointments, each for approximately 30 minutes.

From the day of the consultation until the fit of the prosthesis it takes an average of 6 months for the treatment to be completed.

How much does it cost?

Costs vary depending on the number of the implants, type of the prosthesis and complexity of the work, starting at £2100 for a single tooth implant and crown which is spread over the 6 months.

Where can I find more information?

We will have a detailed discussion with you at your consultation appointment.

Tooth wear

How can I improve my smile?

The appearance of your teeth and  smile is an important part of your personality. We can help to improve your smile using non tooth destructive techniques.

We will look at various options such as composites, bleaching and orthodontics to improve your smile. We do on occasion provide crowns and veneers to improve a smile but this is as a last resort as crowns and veneers permanently damage tooth tissue resulting in long term problems.

As experienced specialists we can look at techniques general dental practitioners may not be familiar with.

We also have extensive experience in treating tooth wear which is now much more common due to dietary changes.

Who provides the treatment?

Professor Reza Roudsari will provide the treatment.

How much does it cost?

Depending on the nature of your tooth wear, complexity and your treatment needs, the price varies. You will receive a detailed discussion on the status of your teeth, the options available to you and their costs at the consultation.

Why are my teeth wearing away?

There are a number of reasons for this. Professor Roudsari has many years of managing patients with moderate to severe tooth wear. We will discuss what has caused your tooth wear and try to reduce its impact before we start the treatment.

The video above explains some of the most common reasons for tooth wear.
