General Dentistry at Dentist Wandsworth

Everyday care that keeps your smile going strong.

It might not be the flashiest part of dental care, but general dentistry is where it all begins. It’s the check-ups, the cleans, the little repairs — the kind of stuff that stops small problems from turning into big ones. And honestly, that kind of preventative care goes a long way.

At Dentist Wandsworth, we take pride in looking after the basics properly. We don’t rush you in and out, and we don’t treat every case like a copy-and-paste. Whether you’re here for a routine exam, a filling, or just something that doesn’t feel quite right, we’ll take the time to listen, look, and sort it with care.

We’re local, trusted, and if you’re searching for a reliable dentist near me in Wandsworth, we’d be glad to help.

Understanding General Dentistry - Dentist Wandsworth

What is general dentistry?

It’s the bread and butter of dental health. General dentistry covers everything you need to keep your teeth, gums, and mouth healthy on a day-to-day basis. It’s not just about spotting problems — it’s about preventing them before they have a chance to sneak in.

Here are some of the general dental services we offer:

Routine check-ups
Scale and polish (with our hygienist)
Fillings (including white, tooth-coloured options)
Tooth extractions (only when necessary, of course)
X-rays and diagnostics
Preventative advice and care planning

It might not sound exciting, but these are the things that keep your mouth healthy — and help you avoid more involved (and costly) treatments down the line.

What to expect at your appointment

Overview of A Standard Dental Visit Experience - Dentist Wandsworth

A general dental appointment at our Wandsworth practice is nothing to stress over.

We’ll have a proper chat, check your teeth, gums, and jaw, and take X-rays if needed. If we find anything, we’ll explain it clearly — no confusing terminology or pressure to book treatments you don’t need.

You’ll always be in control of what happens next. If there’s something that needs fixing, we’ll talk through the options, timeframes, and costs, and help you decide what works for you.

We’re not into the hard sell. We’re into helping you feel confident in your care.

Why regular check-ups matter

We know it’s tempting to skip the dentist if nothing feels wrong. But the thing about teeth is — they don’t always shout when there’s a problem brewing. A small cavity might not hurt now, but left too long, it can turn into something much trickier.

By coming in for regular check-ups (usually every six months), we can catch issues early and keep everything ticking along nicely. Think of it like a service for your mouth — simple, quick, and worth it.

Nervous about coming in?

You’re not alone. A lot of people put off the dentist because of anxiety, bad past experiences, or just general discomfort. We completely understand, and we’re here to help you feel at ease — not judged.

We’ve looked after plenty of nervous patients, and we’re happy to take things at your pace. Whether you need extra reassurance, longer appointments, or just a friendly face who listens, we’ve got you.
