Affordable Dental Treatments in Surrey
Dentist Surrey
Dentistry focuses on essential practices that maintain and improve oral health. According to the World Health Organization, oral diseases are a significant global public health concern, particularly in disadvantaged communities where they occur at higher rates.
At Woodbridge Hill Dental Practice, we provide a range of treatments designed to prevent and address the two most common oral conditions: dental caries (tooth decay) and periodontal disease (gum disease). Our services include:
- Tooth Restoration – Repairing decayed or damaged teeth.
- Tooth Extractions and Surgical Removals – For cases where teeth cannot be saved.
- Scaling and Root Planing – Deep cleaning to manage gum disease.
- Endodontic Root Canal Treatments – Saving infected teeth through advanced care.
We believe exceptional dental care should be accessible to everyone, which is why we offer 0% finance options for treatments over £350, ensuring affordable, high-quality dentistry for our patients across Surrey.
Bridges
A dental bridge offers a permanent and reliable solution for replacing one or more missing teeth. This treatment involves taking precise impressions of the adjacent teeth, which act as anchors to support the bridge.
Typically crafted from a blend of precious metal and porcelain, a bridge is securely fixed in place, providing a natural look and feel. Unlike dentures, which are removable, dental bridges remain firmly in position, restoring both the function and appearance of your smile.
At Woodbridge Hill Dental Practice in Surrey, we provide high-quality dental bridges to help you regain confidence in your smile and enjoy long-lasting results.
Crowns
A dental crown is a custom-made cap designed to fully encase a natural tooth, offering both protection and aesthetic improvement. Crowns can be crafted from a variety of materials, including metal, porcelain-fused-to-metal, Zirconia, or pure porcelain options such as E-max and Aesthetic Crowns. Permanently fixed in place, crowns are ideal for restoring teeth that are broken, decayed, or damaged, or for enhancing the overall appearance of a tooth.
To fit a crown, the affected tooth is carefully reshaped into a small peg, providing a stable foundation for the new crown. While the crown itself is crafted in a specialist lab, which typically takes up to two weeks, a temporary solution can be provided in the meantime.
At Woodbridge Hill Dental Practice in Surrey, we deliver expertly crafted crowns that restore function, strength, and beauty to your smile.
Composite White Fillings
Fillings are employed to mend a cavity in a tooth resulting from decay. The prevalent type of filling is an amalgam, comprising a blend of metals like mercury, silver, tin, copper, and zinc. The adverse health effects of such fillings are not scientifically established. Your dentist in Surrey will recommend the most suitable filling type based on your clinical requirements, which may include white fillings if deemed appropriate.

Inlays & Onlays
Dental inlays and onlays provide an ideal solution for restoring teeth with moderate decay or damage, particularly in the back of the mouth. They serve as a middle ground between standard fillings and full dental crowns, offering durability and precision where a filling may not suffice, but a crown isn’t yet necessary.
Inlays and onlays are typically crafted from resin or porcelain, with gold options also available. However, resin and porcelain are often preferred for their aesthetic advantages, as they can be colour-matched to blend seamlessly with natural teeth. This makes them an excellent choice for replacing outdated or unsightly metal fillings.
At Woodbridge Hill Dental Practice in Surrey, we provide expertly crafted dental inlays and onlays to restore the function and appearance of your teeth while ensuring a natural, polished look.
Root Canal Treatment
Root canal treatment, also known as endodontics, is a procedure designed to treat infections within the root canal system of a tooth.
When the nerve or blood supply of a tooth becomes infected, timely root canal treatment is essential to prevent the infection from spreading, which could otherwise lead to the need for tooth extraction.
During the procedure:
- The infection is carefully removed from inside the root canal system.
- The canal is thoroughly cleaned, filled, and sealed with a filling or crown to prevent reinfection.
Root canal treatment often requires two to three visits to your dentist for complete care. To protect and strengthen the root-filled tooth, it is highly recommended to cover it with a full or partial crown (onlay) to prevent damage or cracking.
At Woodbridge Hill Dental Practice in Surrey, we offer expert root canal treatments to save infected teeth and preserve your smile.
Wisdom Tooth Removal
Wisdom teeth are the last set of teeth to emerge, typically appearing at the back of the gums during the late teens or early twenties. Most people have four wisdom teeth, one in each corner of the mouth.
However, wisdom teeth can sometimes grow at an angle or become impacted, meaning they are unable to fully emerge and may get stuck beneath the gum. Impacted wisdom teeth can cause discomfort, infection, or other dental issues, and may require removal.
At Woodbridge Hill Dental Practice in Surrey, we provide safe and effective removal of impacted wisdom teeth. Depending on the complexity, the procedure may be performed by your dentist or, if necessary, you may be referred to a specialist or a hospital’s oral and maxillofacial unit for more advanced extractions.
Our team ensures a comfortable experience, offering expert care to resolve wisdom tooth concerns and protect your oral health.

Dental Implants
Dental implants provide a permanent alternative to removable dentures, offering a stable and long-lasting solution for tooth loss. Implants are often necessary when tooth loss causes the mouth to shrink, making it unsuitable for supporting traditional dentures. Whether you need to replace a single tooth or multiple teeth, implants deliver exceptional functionality and aesthetics.
The process involves surgically placing titanium screws into the jawbone, which act as a sturdy foundation for a crown, bridge, or denture. This step ensures durability and a natural feel.
Creating replacement parts such as crowns or bridges requires careful preparation to achieve a precise fit with your existing teeth. As a result, these components may not be ready during your initial visit.
At Woodbridge Hill Dental Practice in Surrey, our dental implant services restore smiles with unmatched stability and comfort.
Dentures or False Teeth
Dentures, often referred to as false teeth, are prosthetic devices designed to replace missing natural teeth. They are custom-made using detailed impressions of your gums to ensure a comfortable and secure fit.
- A full set of dentures replaces all teeth.
- A partial set is used to replace one or more missing teeth and is crafted to blend seamlessly with your remaining natural teeth.
Dentures are typically made from metal or plastic materials and are removable for easy cleaning. Partial dentures can be brushed alongside your natural teeth, while a full set requires removal for soaking in a cleaning solution to maintain hygiene.
Replacing missing teeth with dentures is essential for restoring your ability to chew effectively, preventing dietary restrictions, and maintaining facial structure by avoiding muscle sagging.
Teeth Whitening
Teeth whitening is a popular treatment that involves bleaching your teeth to achieve a lighter, brighter smile. While it won’t make your teeth perfectly white, it can lighten their existing shade by several levels, improving their overall appearance.
Home teeth whitening is a standard option, where custom-made mouth guards are used to apply a bleaching gel over a series of sessions at home. The process typically takes a couple of months to achieve noticeable results.
Dental Veneers
Dental veneers provide a quick and effective solution to disguise discoloured teeth rather than teeth that are damaged. Veneers are thin, custom-made layers of porcelain that fit seamlessly over the front of your teeth, much like a false fingernail.
To fit a veneer, a small amount of the tooth’s front surface is gently drilled away. An impression is then taken, and the veneer is carefully crafted to match the natural look and colour of your teeth.
