Get Impressions taken with a 3D Scanner

By News

We are pretty excited to let you know that from Monday 18th March until Friday 22nd March, we have the use of 3D digital scanner.

This specialised piece of equipment allows us to generate a digital model of your teeth – so no need to take impressions! It works by using a special type of camera to scan your mouth and only takes about 5 minutes.

Our aim during this week would be to use this technology together with our labs, to help make new and/or replacement crown and bridge work. The scanner is also used in conjunction with adult teeth straightening where we can show you whilst still in the dental chair what your teeth could look like following treatment.

If you’ve ever considered teeth straightening, replacing crowns, need a new bridge but you’re not particularly keen with having impressions taken, then this system may be an option for you. Even if you are comfortable with traditional impression taking methods – you can still use this system.

Why not give us a call to book your appointment now or alternatively you could use our new online method of booking with your favourite dentist. You can see the link at the top of this page.

Weather Update – Practice Closed – Thursday 1st March

By News

We are very sorry but due to the adverse weather conditions we have had to make the difficult decision to close the practice today.
The road conditions mean that it would be dangerous and unreasonable to expect staff to travel today and we do not want any patients to make the journey and put themselves in any risk.
We appreciate that if you have toothache a day longer to wait is no fun but we need to make sensible decisions for the majority I’m… afraid.
We will be able to access our computer and will endeavour to get everyone cancelled.

If you have a severe emergency please contact NHS24 on 111 however PLEASE bear in mind all emergency services will be overloaded so only use this for an extremely urgent situation.

Many thanks for your understanding, stay warm and safe x

Say hi to our new team member

By News
We are delighted to welcome Lydia McGowan to our team. As many of you will know, Belhaven is an approved practice to mentor new graduates who stay with us for a year. Lydia joins us as we say farewell to Gilzian who has moved onto to a permanent role at another practice following her mentored year with us.
It’s a great asset to have these young dentists as they share with us the most up to date techniques and knowledge and we share with them our experience. … We were very fortunate to have been inundated with applicants and Lydia really shone at interview. Not only that but she qualified with an honours dental degree, which is only awarded to the highest performing students. ⭐ As well as being a bright spark, Lydia is Irish ???? and certainly has the gift of the gab!
Lydia will be mentored by Ryan (with Catherine of course always getting a word in too!)
It’s a pleasure to welcome her to our team and already feels like she’s been with us for ages

Belhaven Dental Surgery supports SMILEAWI Dental Charity

By News

Logo

Smileawi was set up in October 2012 by Nigel and Vicky Milne, two dentists from Dunoon following a trip to assess the dental services available in northern Malawi. The charity was set up to try and improve the dental services in the areas of northern Malawi. Its aim is to provide basic and safe dentistry to a population which otherwise has a very limited access to dental services.

The charity relies on qualified dentists, dental therapists and dental nurses to volunteer their time and skills by travelling to Malawi to support the aims of the charity. All volunteers are completely self- funded with trips normally lasting 16 days.

This September, Catherine Jones, Kate Steele and Caroline Turner (left to right) will travel to Malawi to assist Nigel, Vicky and other volunteers in providing access for the locals of northern Malawi to dental treatment.

A donations tin is available at our reception and we are also planning a few fundraisers. We would therefore be delighted if you were able to contribute to the significant cost of their trip in anyway – large or small.

For further information on the charity and the work they do, ask at reception during your next visit to Belhaven and please visit the Smileawi website – http://smileawi.com/

Smileawi is registered Charity – No: SC046434
