We accept referrals for all advanced periodontal procedures, including aesthetic and functional crown lengthening, surgical management of periodontal disease, and treatment of gum recession. Dr Harriet Beaty provides soft-tissue grafting around teeth and implants, regenerative management of infrabony defects, and treatment of peri-implantitis and peri-mucositis. We also manage perio-endo lesions and offer bespoke gingival veneers for aesthetic restoration. Our periodontal service focuses on stabilising disease, rebuilding lost support, and achieving long-term functional and cosmetic outcomes. Referring dentists can trust us with complex cases requiring specialist-level periodontal care and predictable regenerative techniques.
Our All-on-4 and All-on-6 full-arch implant solutions are ideal for patients with failing dentitions or complete tooth loss. We provide fixed, same-day and delayed-loading options depending on bone volume and clinical suitability. Treatment includes comprehensive assessment, digital planning, bone grafting if required, and collaboration with referring dentists for long-term maintenance. Patients benefit from improved function, facial support, and natural-looking aesthetics. We welcome referrals for complex full-arch rehabilitation, and those seeking fixed alternatives to dentures.
Our cosmetic dentistry referral service includes veneers, composite bonding, smile makeovers, Invisalign and complete aesthetic transformations. We use digital photography, smile simulations and minimally invasive techniques to achieve natural, long-lasting results. Referrals are suitable for patients seeking improvements in tooth shape, alignment, colour and symmetry. Whether restoring a single tooth or redesigning a full smile, we prioritise minimally invasive and bespoke treatment options. Our team welcomes collaborative planning with referring dentists to ensure each patient receives a bespoke, high-quality cosmetic result.
We offer IV conscious sedation with midazolam for anxious or phobic patients, including some ASA III cases and children aged 12+. Sedation is delivered by trained clinicians in a controlled environment, ensuring comfort and safety throughout treatment. This service is ideal for patients requiring longer procedures, oral surgery, implants, and complex restorative dentistry, as well as those who would struggle to tolerate routine dentistry. Referring dentists can expect clear communication, comprehensive pre-assessment and safe handover back to their care. Sedation helps improve patient acceptance, reduces anxiety and ensures a calmer clinical experience.
We welcome referrals for complex multidisciplinary cases requiring advanced planning, second opinions or comprehensive treatment coordination. This includes patients with severe wear, failing restorations, periodontal disease, missing teeth, occlusal problems, implant complications and aesthetic concerns. Our team takes a full-mouth, risk-assessed approach using digital diagnostics, CBCT imaging and joint clinician planning. We provide clear reports, proposed sequencing and transparent communication with referring dentists throughout. This service is ideal for challenging cases where patients require stabilisation, predictable restorative planning and long-term functional outcomes.
We welcome referrals for the assessment and management of snoring and sleep-related breathing disorders, including mild to moderate Obstructive Sleep Apnoea. Our clinicians provide custom-made mandibular advancement devices (MADs) designed to improve airway patency, reduce snoring and enhance sleep quality. Using advanced digital scanning and careful bite registration, we ensure comfortable, accurate appliance fit. We also coordinate closely with medical teams where further investigation is required. This service is ideal for patients seeking a non-invasive treatment option or those intolerant of CPAP therapy. Referring dentists should expect patients to have been diagnosed with OSA after receiving a sleep study, or this can be arranged by Gibside Dental
Endodontic referrals are carried out by Dr Joe Reid, who is completing a three-year MSc in Endodontics with Simply Endo. Joe accepts complex referrals including primary root canal treatment, re-root canal treatment, trauma management, perforation repair, pulp therapy and fractured instrument or post removal.
We accept referrals for full-mouth rehabilitation cases involving severe tooth wear, multiple missing teeth, occlusal instability, and complex restorative needs. Treatment may involve implants, crowns, bridges, composite build-ups, periodontal optimisation and functional smile design. Our digital workflows allow precise planning to restore function, aesthetics, and long-term stability. This service is ideal for patients requiring a comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach where sequencing, risk assessment and predictable case coordination are essential. We work closely with referring dentists to deliver sustainable outcomes and clear maintenance plans.
We accept Invisalign referrals for patients seeking discreet, removable orthodontic treatment. Using digital scans and 3D smile simulation, we create predictable alignment plans for crowding, spacing, crossbites, overbites and underbites. Treatment often forms part of a wider restorative or cosmetic plan, combining alignment with whitening, bonding or veneers for optimal results. Our clinicians are experienced in complex Invisalign cases and can manage patients needing pre-restorative space creation or bite improvement. We provide clear progress updates to referring dentists and collaborative planning where desired.
Our oral surgery service is delivered by visiting Maxillofacial Surgeons, and Dr Samuel Row. We accept referrals for complex extractions, buried or impacted teeth, and surgical removal of roots.
We accept referrals for high-quality CBCT and OPG imaging using our 2025 Vatech CBCT system.The Vatech platform offers ultra-low radiation, AI-enhanced diagnostics, high-resolution 3D imaging and multiple field sizes (from focused small-volume scans for endodontics to full arch and maxillofacial volumes). It provides exceptional detail for implant planning, assessment of bone levels, impacted teeth, pathology, airway evaluation and complex restorative, endodontic or surgical cases. OPG imaging is also available for panoramic assessment of teeth, jaws and sinus anatomy. Referrals benefit from fast appointments and seamless digital file transfer. Reporting is not included.
We accept referrals for single-tooth dental implants and bridges, offering predictable, long-term replacements for missing teeth. Our implant workflow includes CBCT-guided planning, bone and soft tissue augmentation where required, and restoration with high-aesthetic crowns for natural results. We focus on minimal-invasive placement, soft-tissue optimisation, and ensuring patients fully understand their treatment options. Cases are restored in collaboration with referring dentists where preferred. Our service is ideal for patients seeking a fixed, durable solution that protects adjacent teeth and confidence in smiling and chewing.
We accept referrals for the assessment and management of Temporomandibular Disorders (TMD), including jaw pain, clicking, locking, muscle tension, bruxism, headaches and chronic facial pain. Our approach combines comprehensive examination, digital bite analysis, imaging where appropriate, and evidence-based treatment plans. Management options include splint therapy, stabilisation appliances, muscle de-programming, trigger-point therapy, behavioural advice and adjunctive treatments when required. We work closely with referring dentists to support complex occlusion, functional and restorative cases. Our goal is to reduce pain, improve jaw function and provide long-term stability for patients with TMD and associated para-functional habits.
