Are You Looking For A Dentist in Fulham In London?

Are you looking for a dentist in Fulham, London, SW6? If so, look no further. There are many dentists in Fulham and the surrounding areas and you may ask why should we choose you. Well, here are a number of reasons which we hope will help you make the decision to choose us as your dental practice. WHY CHOOSE PROGRESSIVE DENTISTRY?
 

Dental Expertise

Dr Nissit Patel, our Principal Dentist, is a recognized dental expert with over 17 years experience. He has achieved the prestigious qualification of Master of Clinical Dentistry in Prosthodontics from Kings College, London and was a clinical teacher at Guys Hospital for 7 years from 2007-2014. He is now part of the post graduate panel at Kings College on the MClinDent program.
 

Minimally Invasive Ethos

No longer should you put up with out dated dentistry and a 'drill and fill' culture. We are minimally invasive and will aim to preserve your teeth for the long term.
 

Advanced Technology

We are one of only a few practices in the UK, let alone Fulham, to offer the Waterlase i Plus and Epic 10 diode lasers. This technology has transformed the way we perform treatments. We hardly ever use scalpels for surgery, can clean deep gum pockets like nothing else, sterilise root canals far more than the convention, need far less anaesthetic, perform small fillings without the need for a drill, help to heal ulcers and cold sores and much more.
 

Communication

Seeing is believing. We will show you everything we do using intra oral cameras, SLR digital photographs and digital x rays so that you know exactly what is happening in your mouth.
 

Flexibility

We offer appointments 6 days a week, early morning and late evening. We have appointments to suit, please just ask.
 

Portfolio

Dr Patel has completed thousands of cases with stunning results. We have a Case of the Month available to view on our website: here
 

Word Of Mouth Referrals

If you would like to speak with someone who has had similar treatments, we will put you in touch with them so that they can share their experiences with you.
 

Continuity Of Care

Are you fed up of seeing a different dentist every time? No more. You will see the same dentist each time. After all, dental care is built on trust and developing a professional relationship. This is not possible if you see a different dentist every appointment and have to explain your history every time. This is not 'care'.
 

Good Transport Links.

We are just a stones throw from Putney Bridge Underground station, a ten minute walk (brisk!) from Putney Train station and there are also a number of buses which stop at Fulham High Street including 14, 74, 220, 414, 430. Parking is also available on Fulham High Street and surrounding roads such as Bishops Avenue, Fulham Road, New Kings Road for example.
 

Commitment to education

We never stop learning and keeping up to date. Our dentists not only attend hundreds of hours of professional learning per year but Dr Patel also provides webinars and acts as a mentor to other dentists.

Lingual Braces - Case of the Month - September 2017

Our case of the month for September 2017 is a wonderful teeth straightening case using one of our favourite braces- Social 6 lingual brace. Lingual braces are placed on the INSIDE of your teeth which means it is the only invisible brace treatment available. Other techniques such as Invisalign or Six Month Smiles may say their treatment is discreet but there is only one truly invisible brace. Aside from this, most treatments are incredibly quick. We have found the average time to be 3-4 months. This really flies by and the brace is removed before you know it. Another huge bonus is that the brace is only placed on 6 teeth making it the smallest fixed brace on the market and therefore very comfortable. 

Here is a case we completed today:

Le déroulement de la première consultation au cabinet Progressive Dentistry

For our French clients:

La premia”re consultation est l occasion de crÃer une relation de confiance patient-praticien, nÃcessaire à la rÃalisation des meilleurs soins possibles. Sauf situation d urgence, nous ne rÃalisons pas de soins pendant la première sÃance. Nous prenons le temps de vous examiner, de discuter avec vous de vos souhaits, d Ãtablir un plan de traitement et de vous l expliquer.

1) à votre arrivÃe, vous aurez à remplir un questionnaire mÃdical. Ce questionnaire est important pour nous, il nous permet de connaitre votre Ãtat de santà et vos traitements pour vÃrifier que vous ne courrez aucun danger pendant nos soins.

2) Vous serez invità à rejoindre la salle de soins, le dentiste discutera avec vous de la raison de votre visite.

3) La consultation commencera par un examen extra oral de la bouche.

4) Nous examinerons ensuite la cavità buccale ; Nous vÃrifierons l Ãtat de chaque dent, l ÃtanchÃità d une Ãventuelle restauration, la prÃsence de carie, de plaque, de tartre, de saignement, le niveau des gencives et du soutient osseux etc.

5) La prise de plusieurs radiographies nous permettra d Ãliminer ou de confirmer la prÃsence de carie ou autres problèmes.

6) L utilisation d une camÃra intra orale permet d enregistrer la situation initiale et de vous montrer sur notre ordinateur en fin de consultation les Ãventuels problèmes.

7) La prise de photographies à l aide d un appareil photo macro professionnel permet de fixer la situation initiale. Cette Ãtape est indispensable pour les patients qui souhaitent entreprendre des traitements orthodontiques ou esthÃtiques.

8) Une prise d empreinte est aussi rÃalisÃe pendant la première consultation avant tout traitement orthodontique ou avant tout traitement prothÃtique complexe qui peut nÃcessiter un avis extÃrieur au cabinet.

9) Dernière Ãtape, nous rÃalisons un diagnostic et nous vous prÃsentons notre plan de traitement en vous dÃtaillant les tarifs et le nombre de sÃances nÃcessaires à sa rÃalisation. C est en suivant systÃmatiquement et rigoureusement notre protocole que nous pouvons vous offrir les meilleurs soins dentaires.

Chez Progressive Dentistry nous prenons le temps de vous Ãcouter, de vous examiner, de dialoguer, de poser un diagnostic, de vous l expliquer, et de vous proposer les soins les mieux adaptÃs à votre cas.

Summer is Over - Transform Your Smile for Autumn Instead!

Today is the 1st September and officially the end of Summer time. It's back to school time (we remember that horrible feeling with the school adverts on TV) and parents are buying shoes, trousers, pencil cases and lunch boxes. Anyway, please don't be too depressed. Think about how a new gleaming smile will enhance your mood for the dark days ahead.

With fantastic modern techniques and skilled dentistry, we can enhance your smile without having to cut your teeth, give any injections and painlessly. As an added bonus, these techniques are far less costly than traditional cosmetic dentistry.

One of our most loved techniques is ABC:

A is for alignment- straighten teeth quickly and discreetly

B is for bleaching- everyone deserves whiter teeth

C is for composite bonding- correct those imperfections with skilled sculpting and bonding

Here is a recent case completed by Dr Nissit Patel:
