Why are we known as ‘The Gentle Dentists’?

It’s because nobody does more to put nervous patients completely at ease

The other important aspect of our Gentle Dentist practice is that if nervous patients require it we can provide sedation and really effective pain management using The Wand.Sedation helps you to completely relaxWe can provide either oral or IV sedation and both measures help to relax nervous patients so that they feel totally at ease and have no memory of the treatment they undergo.The Wand makes injections totally pain freeThe wand is a revolutionary machine that replaces syringe injections of anaesthetic. It is so precise and so pain-free that not only will you not experience numbing of your tongue and gums for hours after your visit, but many patients remark that they did not feel it at all. So if you or anyone in your family are nervous patients, we really recommend that you call Carisbrook on 0161 766 2123 and we’re sure that very quickly you will really appreciate just why we are known as ‘The Gentle Dentists’.
