At Alresford Dental Care we welcome all patients whether this is your first step into the routine of visiting a dentist in a long while or whether you already adopt a preventative approach to your oral health visiting the dentist and the hygienist regularly, which for the majority of adult patients should be every six months.
The practice offers all modern treatments in addition to comprehensive new patient examinations and routine check ups. Some of our more common treatments are highlighted below. If you cannot find the information you are looking for please contact the practice.
Dark or discoloured teeth can be whitened and brightened either at the practice or at home using the latest bleaching techniques. This is particularly effective on age related, dietary and nicotine stains. Your teeth can be lightened by up to eight shades in an hour by using the most advanced Zoom Tooth Whitening System.

Tooth Coloured Fillings
Tooth coloured fillings are a modern approach to restoring teeth with a filling that matches the tooth’s natural colour. This avoids the need for unsightly silver fillings and can greatly improve the aesthetics of your smile.
Crowns/Bridges/Veneers
If the tooth has lost structure, there is
a need to restore shape and form, or to improve function and appearance – a
crown is ideal.
Bridges look and feel just like natural teeth. There is no need to put up with a gap because a bridge can solve the problem
with the minimum of intervention.
Veneers can also offer a solution to discoloured or misshapen teeth.

Inman Aligner
Did you once spend years undergoing painful orthodontic treatment and unsightly braces only to see your teeth slowly slip back to their former wonky ways? Are you one of many who are generally unhappy with the alignment of your teeth and longing for a beautiful, straight smile?
Dr Will Shaw at Alresford Dental Care is proud to introduce a new and leading edge cosmetic dentistry procedure that is taking the UK by storm – The Inman Aligner. This revolutionary concept sees protruding or crowded teeth transformed in a matter of weeks!
So how does it work?
The Inman Aligner is a clear plastic retainer with two spring loaded aligning bars that fit easily over the front four teeth. Unlike a regular brace, the Inman Aligner provides a constant gentle pressure on the teeth, easing them back into place far more quickly.
Apart from its aesthetic benefits, the Inman Aligner is easy to use and can be inserted and removed at any time, allowing eating and brushing to continue as normal. Once teeth have moved to the desired position, a very discreet retainer holds them in place, so they remain in their new position.
During the first consultation, an impression is made of the teeth and in the second, teeth are smoothed to make room for movement and the aligner fitted. For the duration of the treatment bi-weekly visits are required to review and adjust the aligner.
