We believe that prevention is better than cure. This is why we offer regular hygiene visits to every patient. We spend time discussing the best oral hygiene techniques and will undertake fissure sealants and professional fluoride application to prevent future problems when required.
My new dentist was very informative and had a great attitude. He made me feel at ease immediately and really helped me understand where I needed to improve with my brushing and pointed out specific areas to focus on to avoid future problems.
Tooth whitening can be a very effective way of improving your smile. Our aim is for you to have a whiter, brighter smile for as long as possible. This is why we offer custom made whitening trays and a take home kit to top up your whitened teeth. Tooth whitening is not suitable for everyone and as such you will first require an assessment to see if it is a suitable option for you.
Invisalign treatment uses clear, removable aligners, which straighten your smile discretely. With no wires or brackets, they’re a discreet alternative to conventional fixed braces. Invisalign is not suitable for everyone and as such you will first require an assessment to see if it is a suitable option for you.
I have just started my Invisalign treatment with Lucy and the whole process has been fantastic, as well as the support given by the team. Highly recommended.
Having good oral hygiene for life is our goal. Childhood has been identified as the most important period in a person’s dental life. We believe each visit should be fun and aim to make every child look forward to their next dental visit. We will take time to go over oral hygiene and undertake preventative procedures like fissure sealing or professional fluoride applications if required. We use a very gentle and friendly approach to make the appointment run as smoothly as possible for your child.
Our dentist was amazing with my son during his appointment. He was very anxious about having treatment, but Erin talked him through it step by step! Happy mum = happy son; outcome achieved and made a very pleasant experience! Could not recommend the team enough. Thankyou!

I needed an emergency appointment and was very anxious, but Dr Messi Sarogni was amazing – he helped me through it with minimal pain – just amazing!
Veneers are custom-made restorations that attach to the front of your teeth. Veneers can be used to restore one tooth or multiple teeth. They can help to provide a well aligned, proportioned, natural aesthetic smile with minimal tooth preparation. We also provide a service where veneers can be trialled in a temporary material before a final decision is made to go ahead with the permanent makeover. We want to know that you will be happy with your result right at the start of your treatment.
I’d been thinking about getting some cosmetic dental work for a while but never felt comfortable enough with my previous dentists. One visit to Dr Charlie Ding and I’d booked in before I knew it. He completely put me at ease and spoke at lengths as to what my options were and provided full disclosure of prices straight away. I’d highly recommend Limewood – the whole team are so welcoming. And I Love my new teeth 😬 they are amazing! But I’m glad I waited for the right dentist!
Crowns (also known as caps) can be used to restore, protect, and improve the strength of heavily filled or decayed teeth. Crowns fit over the remaining part of a prepared tooth and can be made of several different materials. At the Wooding Dental Group, we prefer to use cosmetic porcelain crowns in almost all situations. Crowns are so advanced these days that they can be made to be indistinguishable from a natural tooth. We have invested in CEREC technology so that we can offer crowns in one appointment.
A bridge is made by placing crowns on the teeth at either side of a space and restoring the space by joining the two crowns together with a false tooth. They are cemented into the mouth and do not need to be removed. Your new bridge will improve your bite and ability to chew. We have invested in CEREC technology so that we can offer bridges in one appointment.
Inlays and onlays are a new advancement in dentistry. They allow for large, unsightly fillings or heavily decayed teeth to be restored with a strong, long-lasting restoration. Commonly they can be used as an alternative to crowns. Tooth coloured ceramic is normally the material used, leaving your tooth with a very aesthetic appearance. We have invested in CEREC technology so that we can offer bridges in one appointment.
Root canal treatment has had huge improvements over recent years. It no longer needs to be an unpleasant experience. We can save even the most heavily decayed teeth using this technique. Our modern nickel titanium root canal equipment means that in the majority of cases, the procedure can be completed in just one visit.
My 90-year-old mum was recently referred to Dr Charlie Ding by her regular dentist for complex root canal treatment. He took time to explain clearly what he intended to do and asked if she had any questions or concerns. She couldn’t believe it was painless and only had mild tenderness at the site for a day or so! Thank you all at Limewood!
Dental anxiety or phobia is a very common reason for not coming to the dentist. If this applies to you, rest assured you are not alone. This is why we spend time with each patient to learn and manage your anxieties. We are experienced in treating patients who are anxious and can use behavioural techniques and procedures such as pain free anaesthetic administration to help. Given the right care and attention we are confident that we can help you to overcome your dental anxieties.
This practice is outstanding! My dentist is Dr John Wilson, and I cannot praise him and his team enough. I am a very, very nervous patient; panic attacks and tears, but Dr Wilson talks to me like I matter, completely understands my irrational fears and was impressively patient with me.
Thank you restoring my faith in dentists and alleviating my fears.
Fillings are a fast, simple and convenient way of repairing missing tooth structure. It is sometimes necessary to replace old fillings if they are worn down or broken. If you believe you have a hole or are in pain, you may require a filling. Please make an appointment as soon as possible, as if left too long, you may need more complex work.
Tooth sensitivity is a very common dental complaint. In most cases it can be eradicated to allow you to get on with enjoying life. Brushing technique and diet can be a factor and we will be happy to discuss this with you.
It has been shown that more people loose teeth through poor gum health than tooth decay. Gum disease often goes un-noticed and is not painful. At all our practices we undertake a full check of the gums during every examination. We also have a dental hygienist as part of our team who will professionally remove plaque, tartar and staining. We believe that excellent oral hygiene is crucial in maintaining healthy gums and this is why we promote a new concept in the use of interproximal brushes. We will fully explain this new concept during your hygiene appointment.
Using dentures, we can help to replace a few teeth, or all your teeth. Dentures will help you look better, eat better, and will improve your self-confidence. Loosing teeth causes bone loss too, which can give the face a sunken appearance. With dentures, we can replace this missing bone which helps support the face and cheeks. There are many different options when it comes to dentures which we will always discuss with you so that you are able to choose the best option that suits your needs.
Preventing tooth trauma when playing contact sports is essential. The best way of achieving this is with a custom-made mouthguard. These can be made to the colour of your choice, and we can incorporate logos or badges into the mouthguard if required. Custom-made mouthguards don’t require any effort to keep in your mouth, leaving you to concentrate on your game.
Extractions are always a last resort. However, in some cases there are no other options. At the Dental Wooding Group, we use a technique where the tooth is removed as carefully as possible using the best local anaesthetic. If wisdom teeth need to be removed, this can be undertaken at the practice, or we can refer you to an oral surgeon for the teeth to be removed under a general anaesthetic.
As a very nervous patient I visited Limewood today and received excellent care from all the staff. I had 2 teeth removed that had been causing me severe pain, as well as a deep clean. I never felt a thing. I’d 100 % definitely recommend this dental practice to anyone, especially nervous patients. Thank you for taking great care of me!
