Prevention is always better than cure. Commit to regular dental checkups to protect your teeth and gums.

We recommend visiting the dentist regularly to help prevent small problems from becoming much bigger problems. Your dentist is often the first healthcare provider to spot the signs of oral cancer.

What does preventative dentistry include?

Preventative dentistry includes regular checkups and dental hygienist deep cleaning to remove all traces of plaque and tartar from your teeth and below the gum line. This helps to prevent bacteria buildup, which can cause gum disease and cavities. Your dentist will also look for signs of oral cancer. When caught early, survival rates for oral cancer can be as high as 95%.

How can I protect my oral health from home?

We recommend brushing twice a day for two minutes using fluoride toothpaste. We also recommend using interdental brushes or dental floss to clean all of the tooth surfaces. If you aren’t sure if you are caring for your teeth correctly, ask your dentist or dental hygienist during your next routine appointment.

When should my child visit the dentist?

Children should visit the dentist every six months starting from early childhood. You can bring your child for a visit as soon as their first tooth appears. We make a trip to the dentist fun and engaging for young children, so they know they have nothing to be afraid of.

As a very nervous patient of the dentist I was SO lucky to have found Dr Farhana Ali and Amelia, her Dental Nurse. I can’t begin to express how caring and professional they both are. I highly recommend them and thank them both for their kindness and understanding on each of my visits to Silk Dental. Also thanks to the friendly and helpful receptionists.

Really good practice, friendly and understanding staff. Really good with nervous patients like myself. The most lovely dentist who offered the sedation I needed when refused by so many others. Thank you. I’m glad I finally found you.

I’ve recently joined Silk Dental and wanted to say a massive thank you to the team for looking after me and getting my teeth sorted. From my initial checkup up with Dr Farhana and later appointment to get a filling sorted my teeth are now looking and feeling so much better. Special thanks to Dental Therapist Liliya and nurses Sophie and Beckie also, it’s so comforting to have found a professional and welcoming dental practice, I’d recommend Silk Dental to anyone, they are the best dentist I have been to.

Excellent practice. Was seen to by Dr. Farhana and Amelia. Dr Farhana was easy to speak with about my concerns and provided wonderful advice. I was kept informed through the procedure. Highly rate Silk Dental.

Just wanted to feedback about the level of service and care I received today at Silk dental. It was absolutely exceptional, the dentist and technician both made me feel at ease, not judged listened to my concerns and offered a treatment plan that would hopefully seek to return my teeth to a point of health. The other thing I’d like to point out is the investment in the practice itself - it’s a beautiful space, and so inviting, rather than obviously clinical. All the staff were friendly and patient, and the communication throughout from the initial conversation about re-joining to the helpful reminders left in voicemails, to everything being in an App- just such a pleasurable experience- especially considering the anxiety I had built about going to the dentist. So a massive thank-you to all

A huge thank you to Silk Dental for there care & attention over the last year. I have always been nervous going to the dentist , but always feel welcomed & relaxed. My two daughters have also come over to Silk Dental from our previous dentist & feel the same. The reception staff are also very helpful & go above & beyond. Thank you Silk Dental.
