The bite guard can help with many problems caused by grinding your teeth: - Helps eliminate stress, headaches and fatigue caused by night time grinding. - Helps with moderate to severe teeth grinding/clinching - Helps to prevent premature tooth wear and noise from teeth grinding - Custom made for your comfort.

Some patients get more nervous than others at the sight of a needle and syringe. That's why the Wand system comes in a small lightweight hand-piece that resembles a pen. The computer controlled system allows for an even-flow delivery of anesthetic in a very comfortable, non-threatening manner.

The Wand eliminates the 'bee sting' effect - the painful consequences from a surge of fluid into a confined tissue area. Even more, certain injections made possible with the Wand minimise the unnecessary numbness of the tongue, cheek, and face.

The Wand hand-piece provides painless injections for all routine dental treatment including root canals, crowns, fillings, and cleanings.

The Wand's key benefits:

 - Higher patient comfort

 - Reduced patient anxiety

 - Faster numbing onset and sensation recovery

 - Especially useful for children

The Wand's computer controlled local anesthetic delivery system doesn't look like a syringe. It doesn't feel like a syringe. And what's more, it works better than a syringe resulting in a more plesent experience. Ask us about Wand at your next visit. It's the comfortable alternative to the syringe.

I learned of Thurlow Dental & Facial Aesthetics through attending one of their open evenings. I found the open evening extremely informative and a great way to meet the dentist, see the practice and learn of what could be achieved for me personally. I met Dr Justus Dirks at the open evening and he had the time to talk to me and answer my initial questions. I was very impressed with what could be done for me and booked my first appointment. 

I came to Thurlow with all my teeth missing. I’d been unhappy with my dentures for a long time. I’d visited three dentists and had several sets of uncomfortable dentures made, before finding Thurlow. I had experienced unsatisfactory service and spent a lot of money without having experienced the quality I have now achieved. 

Dr Justus Dirks recommended dental implants. We decided together a course of treatment, an implant retained prosthesis (unit of teeth) that fixes onto the dental implants. I‘ve had 3 implants placed in my upper jaw and four implants placed in my lower jaw. On the mornings of my treatment I was glad to be at the dentist and having the treatment done. Dr Dirks made me feel that confident! I can honestly say I’ve enjoyed every single visit to the dentist. Dr Dirks always makes me feel welcome and he’s so reassuring. 

I’ve recommended my friends and family to Thurlow and my family think my new teeth are great! Dr Dirks has been marvellous! He has done an amazing job and I want to shout it out loud! I’m absolutely over the moon! My new teeth are beautiful, as was the service and the people at Thurlow. Dr Dirks did a marvellous job. I couldn’t eat a nice steak before, now I could eat a horse! I’m happier with my smile than ever before, I’m more confident and feel great. I think my smile is absolutely fantastic! 

We have regular open evenings at Thurlow Dental & Facial Aesthetics, which you are very welcome to attend.
