Family Dental Practice, Rochester, Kent ME1 1BD
WELCOME TO THE NEW ROAD DENTAL PRACTICE
Established for 30 years in Rochester, Medway, Kent.
ORAL CANCER ACTION MONTH
NOVEMBER 2023
November is oral cancer action month to both make patients aware of the causes of oral cancer and the importance of self-checking the mouth and having regular dental examinations.
Checking the general health of the mouth including looking for signs of oral cancer is something we do routinely at your check up appointment.
If you have a persistent ulcer lasting for more than 3 weeks, red or white patches inside the mouth, lumps in the neck or facial area, make an appointment and get them checked out!
MINIMALLY INVASIVE DENTISTRY
We practise minimally invasive dentistry, which is all about preserving rather than removing tooth tissue. We will try to restore teeth in the simplest way possible (using modern bonded tooth coloured restorative materials) and also try to preserve tooth structure by repairing existing restorations that have broken.
BRITISH DENTAL ASSOCIATION GOOD PRACTICE SCHEME
We have been members of the BDA Good Practice Scheme for over 10 years. This means that:
We aim to provide dental care of consistently good quality.
We will work with you to provide care that meets your needs and wishes.
We aim to make your treatment comfortable and convenient.
We will check for mouth cancer and tell you what we find.
We will look after your general health and safety.
We follow current infection control standards.
We keep our skills and knowledge up to date.
We monitor the quality of our service to identify opportunities for improvement

TEETH WHITENING
Bleaching teeth is a safe and effective way of brightening up your smile that should only be carried out under the supervision of a registered dental professional, who will closely monitor the process at weekly or fortnightly intervals.
We make special transparent close-fitting trays from impressions of the individual’s teeth.
Patients wear these trays overnight with a special bleaching gel inside them.
FAMILY DENTAL PRACTICE
We treat all age groups in a relaxed, caring environment from the very young to the very old and are experienced in adapting our approach and treatment options to each individual patient.
RANGE OF SERVICES
We offer a full range of general dental services with an emphasis on prevention through regular attendance.
We practice minimally invasive dentistry preserving as much tooth structure as possible and repairing existing failing restorations with tooth coloured materials.
CHILDREN SEEN FREE OF CHARGE
We see children on the NHS free of charge.
We also see expectant and new mums on the NHS who are exempt from NHS dental charges and are existing patients of the practice.
We will see existing patients who are students and apprentices for whom minimal NHS charges will apply.
Unfortunately at present we are not able to accept any new children on the NHS as we don't have the capacity to do so.
