New Patients

Your First Appointment

We at Brigstock Dental pride ourselves on delivering high quality dental care to our patients. We are a long established family dental practice refurbished to a very high standard using modern equipment and the latest technology and materials. All our patients are treated with respect and dignity. We place a strong emphasis on prevention and patients are offered all the information on options for treatment including costs.


What will happen at my first appointment?

We are fully computerised and you will receive a text reminder 48 hours before before your appointment with us. On arrival you will be greeted by our friendly reception staff and asked to fill out your confidential medical and dental history form.

In the dental surgery, your dentist will spend time to listen to your concerns and wishes and any concerns you may have. The dentist will then carry out an in depth oral examination carefully looking at:

  • teeth for any signs of decay, wear or cracks
  • any signs of gum disease
  • how your teeth bite together
  • any signs of mouth cancer or other diseases

It is often necessary to take x-ray pictures of your teeth and jaw bones. We use low-dose digital X rays to minimise any risk to our patients.

Following discussion, your dentist will recommend a tailored treatment plan to suit your needs. Where possible, we will give your a paper estimate outlining treatment costs for you to take home then and there before any work is started.

Your dentists will also make recommendations of how frequently you should attend for dental hygiene and oral health check appointments.
