● Same-Day Dentistry

One way we are making life easier for patients is by offering same-day dentistry, when available. If you have an emergency or find yourself with some free time, we will try to fit you in for an appointment. That means on short notice you can receive much needed dental treatment without having to wait for a scheduled appointment!

When we cannot provide same-day dentistry, we are still on hand to offer advice and provide pain relief. Our team of dental professionals are equipped to assess many common dental issues, so make sure to give us a call the next time you have a dental emergency. Our same-day dentistry treatments are carried out with the same expertise and professionalism we adhere to as standard. We will not rush your treatment, nor will we cut any corners.

As a practice, we are keenly focused on ensuring that our scheduling system benefits every patient. We reserve appointment slots for the purpose of accommodating patients who need same-day dentistry. At Chester Road Family Dental, it is also standard practice to complete treatments over as few appointments as we reasonably can. That way we aren’t taking up too much of your time and patients can utilize the additional appointments for urgent dental care.

There are common symptoms of gum disease which are easy to spot. Bleeding, swollen, receding or painful gums are perhaps the most noticeable symptoms. However, in many cases, gum disease will present as what feels like a dull toothache. Your dentist is best placed to diagnose gum disease through the use of a comprehensive dental exam.

Gum disease has many possible causes, although the most common is insufficient oral hygiene. The condition is caused by harmful bacteria that attack the gums and roots of the teeth. That is why cleaning and medicinal treatments are the preferred course of treatment, with antibacterial mouthwash as an aid to treatment.
