Hello Everyone, we hope you are all staying safe at this time.
We are following all the government guidelines and taking all the safety precautions we can to ensure the safety of our patients and our team. This means that we will not be seeing vulnerable patients for routine check up if there is no pain.
We will be available for emergencies such as severe pain and swelling and some treatments, our phone line will be open to calls in the morning if you have any concerns. We are currently only seeing patients in the morning in order to reduce the risk of COVID-19. When we are not present at the practice we will leave our practice mobile number in the voicemessage if you need any urgent care.
Thank You,The Team @ Hatherley Dental

Cleaning & Prevention
Let us prevent dental disease rather than treat it at a later date
Cleaning & Prevention helps avoid serious and costly dental problems and is the key to having a healthy, confident and beautiful smile. At Hatherley Dental Surgery your cleaning appointment will include a dental exam and the following:
Removal of calculus (tartar):
Calculus is plaque that gets hardened overtime and harbors bacteria. It is caused by the continual accumulation of minerals from saliva and becomes firmly attached to the tooth surface. Calculus forms above and below the gum line and can be threatening to the health of gums. Calculus can only be removed with special dental instruments.
Elimination of plaque:
Plaque is a sticky, almost invisible film that forms on the teeth. It is a growing colony of living bacteria, food debris, and saliva. The bacteria produce toxins (poisons) that inflame the gums. This inflammation is the start of periodontal disease!
Teeth Polishing:
Teeth Polishing is removing stain and plaque that is not otherwise removed during tooth brushing and scaling.
