It’s never too early to start visiting your dentist, and we recommend that children start to attend routine dental check-ups as soon as their first teeth erupt. This will help them to become familiar with visiting the dentist and everything that it entails, which could hopefully help prevent them from becoming fearful about dental check-ups and treatments as they get older. Schedule your child’s first visit to IKON Dental Specialists in Ealing by calling us on 020 8997 2888.

Don’t panic. We know that life gets busy, and it can be easy to overlook an appointment. We strongly advise patients to book their dental check-ups well in advance, but if you forget or you miss an appointment, please speak to us as soon as possible and we will be happy to book in your routine dental exam. Please don’t wait for the next one, as a dental issue could develop between now and then which could cause pain or have other consequences for your oral health.

If you are overdue for a dental check-up and would like to have your oral health assessed by a highly experienced and award-winning dental team, call our West London dental practice on 020 8997 2888 today or use our online booking service.

At IKON in Ealing we are pleased to offer white fillings as the most cosmetic option for tooth repairs. If you require a filling, we will safely remove any decay from your tooth first. We will then fill the tooth with our highly aesthetic and extremely durable filling material. We only use the best dental materials available so your new filling will be seamless, unnoticeable and will withstand the forces from chewing a biting for a long-lasting restoration.

We are also able to replace silver metal or amalgam fillings with white fillings for a more aesthetic smile.

If a tooth is broken or has a lot of decay we will use a dental crown to repair it. A crown will also be used following root canal treatment to protect the restored tooth.

Dental crowns are fabricated in the dental laboratory and will be crafted with the shade, shape and size of your existing teeth in mind. This means that your restored tooth will perfectly match the rest of your teeth so that no one will know any different.

Crowns are also used on top of dental implants or dental bridges when a tooth is missing.

A dental bridge is a replacement tooth that is held in place by a crown on either side of the gap it is filling.
‍
We use dental bridges at IKON if you have more than one tooth that requires repair or if a tooth (or teeth) is missing. Dental bridges can effectively ‘bridge’ the gap to create a seamless smile once again, that is also extremely strong and functional.
