Having regular check-ups on your teeth and mouth is essential to maintaining good oral health. These services are available either from either an NHS or a private dentist in Swindon – the choice is yours. However, if you’re looking for something a bit more specialised such as Invisalign or dental implants, our dental practice in Swindon is the perfect choice.
Specialised treatments such as these are just two of the many services that are not available to patients through the NHS. For Invisalign and other cosmetic procedures that can make a real difference to your self-confidence and self-esteem, you will need to consult a private dentist.
NHS dental services primarily focus on treatments that are only necessary to achieve and maintain good oral health. In essence, you’ll receive the treatment required to keep your mouth, teeth and gums both healthy and free from pain. NHS dentistry is, of course, less expensive than private treatment, but it will typically go no further than the following:
- Detecting cavities early. The earlier cavities are identified, the less expensive they are to treat.
- Identifying gum disease. Gum disease is one of the leading causes of tooth loss, and yet many people don’t even realise they are suffering from the condition. Again, it is much easier and cheaper to catch and address the causes of gum disease early than it is to resolve the loss of teeth.
- Finding the root causes of bad breath. Some oral conditions like a dry mouth or bad breath can be resolved with your dentist’s advice.
- Reviewing your oral hygiene. A dentist can help you build and maintain good dental hygiene habits.
- Protecting overall health. Gum disease can increase the risk of a range of medical conditions, including heart disease and diabetes.
But what if you have already suffered tooth loss – either through poor dental hygiene in the past or in an accident? What if you find your teeth unsightly because they are crooked, stained, cracked and broken in places? These are the kinds of conditions that can seriously affect your view of yourself and cause you distress.
Modern dentistry provides a whole range of advanced technologies and solutions that can resolve problems like this. Because the NHS has a limited budget for dentistry in the UK, you may find these treatments are not available to you from your NHS dentist. However, a private dental practice in Swindon such as Aurora DentalClinic can offer such services, and when you consider the benefits, the cost may not be as prohibitive as you might think. Here, we look at two key services available from a private practice in more detail: Invisalign and dental implants.
What Are the Benefits of Invisalign® in Swindon?
Invisalign (a trade name for a brand of invisible tooth aligners) is a relatively new technology designed to correct or straighten teeth, available at Aurora Dental’s Private Dentist inSwindon and our other private practices.
With this treatment, crooked teeth can be aligned into their proper place with the use of clear guides. The guides fit over your teeth, and because they are clear, they are almost invisible to anyone who sees you smile. There are various reasons that make Invisalign much better than the braces available on the NHS:
Standard braces for straightening teeth come with a whole host of restrictions. There are plenty of types of food that you can’t consume, such as things that are sticky or hard. However, with Invisalign, you can eat anything you want.
Standard braces are functional and do their job over time, but one of the best benefits of Invisalign, as noted, is that the aligners are completely invisible. The importance of this cannot be overemphasised.
Young people can be especially self-conscious about their appearance without having to add chunky metal braces on their teeth to their list of bugbears. In addition, adults who may not have had the opportunity to have their teeth straightened in their teenage years certainly don’t want to advertise their braces to friends and work colleagues. For anyone who thinks the traditional form of braces look unappealing, Invisalign can be an enormous advantage. You won’t have to worry about anyone seeing the wires or brackets when you smile.
As noted, standard braces are effective, but nonetheless, they can take a long time to straighten your teeth, up to five years in some cases. Invisalign performs impressively here, only taking around a year and a half to finish their job.
Metal braces require you to visit your dentist frequently to have the rubber bands or wires tightened. Invisalign saves you a lot of time and inconvenience as there are far fewer appointments required. When starting with Invisalign, you’ll receive aligner trays for the current and several subsequent phases of treatment, so you can move on to the next phase without another dentists’ visit.
Invisalign can cure a range of alignment problems, including:
- Crowded teeth
- Crossbite
- Gaps between teeth
- Misaligned teeth
- An open bite
- An overbite
- An underbite
In short, with Invisalign, you can learn to love your teeth again and that can lead to better oral health. If you’re interested in the benefits of Invisalign, speak to a private dentist in Swindon offering the Invisalign service, like us here at Aurora Dental Clinic.
What Are the Benefits of Dental Implants in Swindon?
Dental implants are permanent replacements for missing teeth. They are a long-lasting and natural-looking substitute for natural teeth that even become part of your jawbone and help maintain its health.
Again, other treatments for missing teeth are available such as dentures and bridges, but none of these have the benefits of dental implants, which include the following:
When you lose teeth, you also tend to lose bone mass in your jaw because to stay healthy and maintain its mass, your jawbone needs the stimulation it gets from your teeth connecting when you chew. Dental implants act just like your natural teeth do, and so can help keep your jaw healthy.
Each dental implant is fixed into your jaw by means of a titanium post that replaces the tooth root. Thus, firmly anchored, they allow you to bite with more or less the same amount of force you could with your natural teeth. Other tooth replacement options don’t restore nearly as much of your bite force, which can restrict your diet.
Some tooth replacement solutions, such as dentures, can have a negative impact on your ability to pronounce words correctly. Dental implants enable you to speak as easily and naturally as you ever did because they fit and function just like natural teeth.
Any type of artificial teeth still needs to be cared for to prevent bacteria from building up in your mouth and preserve your oral health. However, the material that dental implants are made of can’t decay, so you won’t have to worry about getting cavities in them.
In short, dental implants are the most natural-looking and best performing of all modern solutions to tooth loss.

Frequently Asked Questions
A private dentist in the UK is an alternative to an NHS dentist, although in practice, most work with both NHS and private patients. NHS dentistry is state-subsidised and so costs the patient less; however, NHS services are restricted to those considered necessary. Private dentists charge full price for their services but also offer a far wider range of treatments.
At a time when NHS budgets are stretched, it can be difficult to make an appointment with an NHS dentist. Private dentists generally have more availability and can schedule appointments more flexibly to fit your own busy schedule. Private dentists also commonly offer longer appointment times, more thorough treatments, better equipment, and more cutting-edge materials and technology.
Typically, yes. Choosing a private dental surgeon in Swindon as opposed to an NHS one usually results in you being seen much quicker, with hardly a wait at all. If there is time to fit you in, you could even be seen the same week. It is also easier to get an emergency appointment if you need immediate dental help at a private dental clinic.
Registration with a dentist isn’t the same as registering with a GP. You are free to visit any private personal dentist in Swindon or beyond; you aren’t bound to register with the one that’s nearest to you. If you use more than one private dentist, though, you should keep each informed about your ongoing treatment, so there are no clashes.
There are rules as to how long you stay on a dentist’s books. Different clinics have different rules. In practice, no dentist will refuse to see you if you are currently undergoing a course of treatment with them (except in cases of unreasonable behaviour, for instance). Thereafter, they may choose to see you or not subject to their own availability.
Dentistry is a key part of your health. If you don’t take care of your teeth, problems in the mouth can be extremely painful and even adversely affect other parts of the body. If your teeth deteriorate beyond redemption, remember that tooth loss is permanent, and procedures like dental implants, while highly effective, can be expensive and uncomfortable to implement.
Dentists do not maintain ‘lists’ of patients in the same way that doctors do. They may set their own criteria for which patients they see. In practice, good dentists will treat you if they have the capacity and have no reasonable grounds to refuse to do so. Bear in mind that repeatedly missing appointments can cause considerable inconvenience.
Reasons to Visit a Dentist
Whether you see an NHS or a private dentist in Swindon, you may believe that dental check-ups are only about cleaning your teeth. They do a lot more than this, though and allow you to:
which is critical. Your dentist or private periodontist in Swindon will inspect your teeth to detect cavities at an early stage. The sooner you detect them, the less expensive and less intrusive it is to treat them.
Your dentist may conduct a visual examination of your mouth to look for indications of oral cancer. If you smoke or use tobacco, this is particularly crucial.
our private prosthodontist in Swindon will examine your fillings to ensure that they are stable and identify any that are faulty and need replacing.
Your dentist and hygienist can assist you in developing and maintaining good dental hygiene habits, preventing bad breath and gum disease in future.
Keep your family’s dental health safe. Dental treatment is also required for children. Tooth decay is the most common disease in youngsters and can lead to infections or worse.
