Regular dental checks and hygienist visits are an important part of maintaining sound oral health. We usually recommend anywhere between 6 – 12 months between examinations if everything is stable and healthy.
Implants are small titanium screws similar in size to a tooth root. They are placed into the jaw bone in placement of a missing tooth or teeth. Implants are then covered with a crown which is made of Ceramic or Porcelain materials to simulate a tooth.
Here at Natural Smile EastMed Dental in St Heliers we provide same-day, one-visit CEREC Biomimetic ceramic + porcelain tooth restorations.
Whitening procedures have effectively restored the smile of people with stained, dull, or discolored teeth.
Invisalign GO is an alternative option to wire braces for straightening mild misalignment of the teeth. It utilises a series of clear aligners to adjust teeth position.
Nothing can replace your natural teeth. Through good oral hygiene habits, regular dental visits and modern prevention methods it is possible to keep from choosing whether to remove or repair a tooth. However, sometimes throughout life due to accidents, dental decay or gum disease this is unavoidable.

Highly recommended!!! Best dentist!!! Dr Dave is such an amazing dentist alone with his great team. From the moment you walk into the clinic you are given reassurance you are in safe hands. Nicole makes you feel very welcomed and Dr Daves assistant Lisa is such a wonderful person and takes care of you. From my first consultation to the last procedure of tooth implant everything went so smoothly. Dr Dave kept explaining every process step by step. And as said in my culture Dr Dave surely has god gifted hands as most part of my treatment felt pain free. I cant thank him enough for the whole experience. Thank you Dr Dave!!

I cannot say enough or thank Dave and his team enough for the amazing work and prompt service that I have received. After being mucked around for nearly two years with a temporary denture in my mouth, Dave took over this work and completed it in just over a week, and the result is stunning. I couldnt be happier! Dave is an absolute legend and his assistant Lisa is such a fantastic lady. They both put you at ease immediately and you know you are in good hands. I cannot rate them highly enough and wont hesitate to tell anyone that will listen how amazing these guys are. 10/10 all around :)

Dave is a great dentist who is thorough, gentle and reassuring. I needed extensive work after a long time avoiding dentists due to anxiety, and every visit was stress and pain free. The whole team is warm and welcoming. Highly recommend.

We absolutely love Dave and his team! Thats something I never thought Id say about a dentist! I had been avoiding dental treatment for over 10 years and Dave did his best to make every experience, with a rather anxious patient (me!), a pleasure. He is extremely thorough, takes a holistic approach to dental care, and communicates well so you never feel like you dont know whats going on. Thanks for everything Dave!
