Our dentist in Banbury has been providing oral care to the local community for more than four decades. Over this period we have developed lasting relationships with our patients and evolved and grown our practice to cater for the needs of the local community. At Amsel & Wilkins we have seven dentists and four hygienists ably assisted by a full team of dental nurses, receptionists and a practice manager as well as a client care coordinator. This allows us to provide the quality of care that you expect from a dental practice in the twenty-first century.

Preventive and general  treatments

Today’s dental patients expect their dentist in Banbury to take care of their general dentistry as well as their cosmetic dentistry needs. Our dedicated team can fulfil all of these needs and more. Preventive dentistry is vital to help your children develop a proper oral hygiene routine so that their teeth stay healthy throughout their lifetime. In addition we can provide advice on smoking habits and oral hygiene to maintain fresh breath and reduce tooth sensitivity. As part of the oral examination we will also look to identify any possible signs of mouth cancer. We can help you with snoring, jaw problems, root canal therapy and of course extractions and fillings. 

Cosmetic dentistry and missing teeth

Our investment in skills and equipment over the years now allows us to cater for all your cosmetic dentistry needs, including the latest treatments for missing teeth. Teeth whitening has become very popular and we take special care to provide you with the right solution and personalised gum shield to ensure that your teeth are whitened gently without any irritation to your gums. Cracked, discoloured or chipped teeth can be easily treated by our team using porcelain veneers.

Misaligned teeth can cause you to suffer from tooth decay and bad breath as well as speech impediments and the inability to chew your food properly. The latest developments in technology have produced dental aligners which, unlike traditional braces, offer a discreet alternative to correct dental misalignment. To help you decide on having the treatment we have scanners that will produce a virtual image of your prospective smile before the treatment commences.

In the past bridges and dentures were the only options if you lost a tooth or teeth as a result of an accident or tooth decay. Over the last decades an alternative has been developed which offers a more natural and permanent solution. Dental implants mimic your natural teeth by using a prosthetic root topped with a crown which is coloured and shaped to match your existing teeth. One implant can support one tooth or up to four teeth in a row, while just four implants can support an entire mouthful of teeth.

You can rely on us

As your dentist in Banbury we provide emergency dental treatment by having a dentist on call every day. One of our team will be on hand to help deal with your emergency and relieve any pain or discomfort which you may be experiencing.

Making full use of our training

Part of our dental training is in anatomy so we have full knowledge and understanding of your skin, muscles and bones, especially of your head and neck area. Using this knowledge for our patients’ benefit allows us to offer some facial aesthetics treatments. If you feel that you would like to reduce the signs of ageing with some anti-wrinkle and dermal filler treatment let us help. It makes sense to make use of the opportunity provided by a clinician who you know and trust. We provide these treatments gently in our well appointed treatment rooms for you.

Complete dental care requires the collaboration of a variety of dental clinicians. Coordinating dental care that meets the demands of the twenty-first century involves the use of the latest technology and well organised staff. Amsel & Wilkins have a well trained and organised team who have the skills, knowledge and equipment to meet the demands of a modern dental surgery. For the past four decades this dental practice has evolved into an efficient and caring family dental surgery. Our reception, client care advisor and business manager take care of the front of house and administrative requirements. This leaves our dentists, hygienists and dental nurses to concentrate on taking care of you and your oral health care needs.

Oral health

As a dentist in Banbury we are concerned with everything relating to your oral wellbeing. When we examine your mouth we will check your teeth and gums, and look for signs of mouth cancer. We will take the time to become acquainted with you, helping you to relax and tell us what you expect from our dentist in Banbury. Discussing your expectations helps us to develop a candid relationship with you. Identifying oral health issues such as sensitive teeth, bad breath, damage caused by smoking, etc. which can be discussed in an honest and positive manner.

We are here to help you retain your teeth for the duration of your lifetime and to be able to do that we need to be able to identify those areas that need attention. You will be able to discuss anything that you may find sensitive, such as snoring, bad breath or teeth grinding. A feature of our dentist in Banbury is our team of seven dentists who have a wide range of skills to help you. We also have four hygienists to ensure that you do not miss any of your six-monthly dental surgery visits.

Prevention, the earlier the better!

If you have children, we encourage you to bring them in from as young as one year old! Let them become used to our dental staff and the surgery. This will all help them to avoid developing dental anxiety at a later stage. When they are due for their first examination they will feel relaxed because they have seen you come in for your dental care, so it will be a natural experience. If we identify something that may require attention immediately or that we know will cause problems later, we can treat it, avoiding possible complications.

Keeping up to date

Technology has helped dentistry evolve at a fast pace and this has enabled us to make the dental experience more efficient and more comfortable. We have invested in some of the most up-to-date technology to treat you. We use a special wand to administer pain-free injections which can also be directed to a specific area so that you don’t have a numb tongue, cheek or lip. Digital X-rays give us instant images and expose you to far less radiation than earlier machines. Intraoral scanners give us images of your entire mouth and can produce ‘before’ and ‘after’ treatment images for you to view. All of this equipment allows us to deliver the oral care that you expect from teeth whitening to dental implants. You can feel confident that our team will provide you with a lifetime of comprehensive oral health care.
