Our highly experienced principal dentist Dr. Gina Vega (GDC No: 83137) has over 15 years experience and is a certified Invisalign® Platinum Elite II Practitioner. Gina has achieved Platinum Elite status by treating between 81-150 Invisalign patients within the last 12 months. She has personally treated well over 500 Invisalign patients and quotes this advice about Invisalign: "When I took over Bishopsgate Dental Care I had a clear vision of what kind of dentistry I wanted to provide my patients. I believe in prevention and I try to be as conservative as possible. This is the reason I believe so strongly about Invisalign. With Invisalign you are using what you have, your own teeth but in a better more beautiful position!. Please take a look at our video featuring our Principal Dentist Gina, explaining all about Invisalign® and how it works. Gina believes it is the best treatment available for straightening teeth. Invisalign is for everybody - from teenagers, to young professionals trying to got ahead in their career, to people in their 50s and older." - [Read More]

When a tooth has had decay deep into its structure the inside or pulp of the tooth can become infected, this causes an abscess. If this happens there are only two options for the tooth, to extract or to treat the root canal. We do our best to always save teeth and so Root Canal Treatment or Endodontics is carried out. Root Canal Treatment is a much more predictable treatment than it ever used to be, the inside of the tooth is cleansed out and shaped with a series of files and disinfected. Once shaped the canals are then sealed with a plastic type material to seal the tooth and prevent re-infection. It can take several appointments to complete a root canal treatment as some of the canal structures can be quite complex. We will advise as we progress through the treatment what to expect and of course if we think extraction is preferable we will discuss this with you. George Margaritis has gained an additional qualification in this field – a Diploma in Endodontics from the prestigious Queen Mary University, Royal London Hospital. We are fortunate, therefore, to be able to offer our patients endodontic equipment that you may not find in every dental practice that aids George to achieve predictable results. Once a tooth has successfully been root treated a permanent restoration is also required as a root treated tooth tends to be weaker. We would then place either an inlay, onlay or crown depending on how much of the tooth structure has been lost. - [Read More]

Dr Mangat has over 20 years orthodontics experience and is well respected within the industry. He has previously been the chairman of General Dental Council's (GDC) fitness to practice panel and chairman of the Orthodontic Specialist Group of the BOS (British Orthodontic Society), he has been a member of the Faculty of Dental Surgeons Royal College of Surgeons of England since 1997. The Benefits of Fixed Braces Fixed Braces have been used successfully in orthodontics for many years. The brackets and wires are very efficient at accurately adjusting the position of teeth and can rectify most orthodontic issues. The braces work by exerting gentle pressure on the teeth to move them into the desired position. Fixed Braces have the benefit of allowing your Orthodontist to make precise adjustments to ensure your teeth are as well aligned as possible. Our team are highly experienced and can offer bespoke treatments to achieve the best results for your individual needs. For those who are concerned about the appearance of wearing Metal Braces, we offer more aesthetically pleasing alternatives. White Braces work in exactly the same way but have tooth coloured brackets, which makes them less noticeable to wear. Even more discreet are Lingual Braces, which are fitted to the hidden backs of the teeth rather than the fronts. - [Read More]

What is a dental implant? Dental implants are the most advanced way to replace a missing tooth or teeth. It is a replacement root made most commonly of titanium which is implanted into the jaw in areas where a tooth or teeth have been lost. This then acts as a root and a replacement tooth can then be fixed to it in a similar way as a crown. They are currently the closest you can get to natural teeth and although it is impossible to beat or replicate a healthy natural tooth, it is often reported by patients that implants look, feel and function like natural teeth. What does the treatment involve? Most implants are placed under local anaesthesia similar to that used for fillings or extractions. They are inserted into the jawbone after incisions are made in the gums. After a period of time the bone into which the implant is placed will attach to the surface of the implant. A small metal pin is then fitted onto the implant upon which a final restoration in the form of a crown or bridge or over-denture is fixed. - [Read More]

Both are almost entirely preventable in most cases with proper, regular oral care. Dental hygiene appointments are a very effective way to help achieve this and prevent problems from developing. At the appointment your teeth will be given a professional scale and polish. The hygienist will carefully clear away any plaque or tartar from the hard to reach areas along the gumline and between your teeth. The polishing will remove surface staining to leave your teeth shiny and clean. If any potential issues are noticed during the appointment then you will be referred to your dentist. As well as visits to the practice, it is also important to look after your teeth and gums every day. Our experienced hygienist will advise you on how to clean your teeth and maintain good oral health at home, including brushing, flossing and the use of interdental brushes. - [Read More]
