Services
Dental Implants
We offer permanent tooth replacement solutions through dental implants. These titanium posts integrate with jawbone tissue to provide stable foundations for crowns or dentures. Our implantologists conduct thorough assessments to ensure suitability, using 3D imaging technology for precise placement planning. This treatment restores both function and aesthetics for patients with missing teeth.
Invisalign
Our clear aligner treatment straightens teeth discreetly using custom-made plastic trays. The process begins with digital scanning to create a treatment plan showing expected tooth movement. Patients receive new aligners every two weeks, with check-ups every six weeks to monitor progress. This orthodontic solution suits adults and teens seeking subtle teeth alignment.
Root Canal Therapy
We treat infected dental pulp with precision root canal procedures. Using rotary instruments and disinfecting solutions, we remove damaged tissue while preserving tooth structure. The cleaned canals receive biocompatible filling material before placing a protective crown. This treatment alleviates pain and saves teeth that would otherwise require extraction.
Children's Dentistry
Our child-friendly dental services include routine check-ups, fissure sealants, and trauma management. We employ positive reinforcement techniques to create comfortable experiences for young patients. Early intervention addresses developmental concerns while establishing preventive care habits. Parents receive tailored advice on diet and oral hygiene practices for children.
Tooth Whitening
Professional whitening treatments brighten smiles using hydrogen peroxide gels under dental supervision. We provide custom trays for home treatment and offer in-surgery power bleaching options. The process includes shade assessment and sensitivity screening to ensure safe, effective results. Maintenance advice helps prolong whitening effects through proper oral care routines.

Report
I booked an emergency appointment on Saturday morning for severe tooth pain from a broken tooth. Excellent service and surroundings. Jonathan lee and his assistant were top class and went above and beyond to make the extraction as comfortable as possible. The whole experience from reception to treatment was excellent and would highly recommend apollo to anyone. Many thanks.

I was referred to Apollo dental by a friend to get some old failing metal fillings replaced. I was treated by Dr Sarah Shannon and her lovely nurses Megan and Maci. The whole experience was painless, relaxed and I am delighted with my new smile! The whole team was welcoming and I look forward to coming back for my check-up in 6 months time :

Report
I had a tooth extraction done here today with Sarah. After several months of suffering with an infection and being too frightened to go to any dentist, Sarah made me feel extremely comfortable and explained the whole procedure to me. For someone who suffers with anxiety with dentists and needles, I was at ease the whole time and would definitely reccomend. Thank you to the whole team and especially Sarah.

Report
Over the Bank Holiday weekend I devopled a painful tooth absess. I contacted Denplan who where unable to contact my dental surgery (it was a Sunday but expected some care from my own dentist of 20 plus years) They eventually contacted Apollo who agreed to treat me. Harry Brien contacted me himself and arranged to meet me at his surgery on Bank Holiday Sunday at 21.00! I can't thank him enough for his care and consideration and I'm not even one of their patients. He gave me a detailed examination including an x ray and issued me with antibiotics Thank you very much Apollo and thank you Harry.

I went to see my dentist on Monday morning and it was all very well organised. I waited in the car until my dentist called me in and then I went in wearing my mask! I felt very safe!

First class. I had a tooth taken out. I was terrified. Dr Brien explained step by step what was happening and that calmed me a lot.
