General Dentistry at Hitchin Dental Practice
A healthy smile is the first step toward lasting confidence. At Hitchin Dental Practice, we provide complete general dentistry, covering everything from preventive care to restorative treatments. Our focus is on protecting your oral health, restoring function when needed, and helping you feel good about your smile—now and for the future. Whether it’s a routine check-up, hygiene visit, dentures or repairing a damaged tooth, you’ll receive clear advice and gentle, modern care every step of the way.
Routine Check-ups & Fillings
Regular check-ups are the simplest way to maintain a healthy smile and prevent problems before they start. At Hitchin Dental Practice, your examination includes a thorough assessment of your teeth, gums, and overall oral health. We’ll check for early signs of issues such as decay, gum disease, or wear—and explain everything in clear, simple terms so you feel confident about your care.
When needed, we may recommend digital X-rays for a closer look. These are quick, comfortable, and help us plan the best treatment for you. If a filling is required, we use high quality, tooth coloured materials designed to mimic the natural shade and shape of your tooth, restoring both function and aesthetics seamlessly. Our goal is to keep your care proactive, affordable, and stress-free.

Root Canals & Extractions
When a tooth becomes badly damaged or infected, our priority at Hitchin Dental Practice is to save it whenever possible. Root canal treatment removes infection from inside the tooth before sealing and restoring it for long term strength. With advanced technology and a gentle approach, we make the process as smooth and comfortable as possible, ensuring you keep your natural tooth whenever we can.
If a tooth cannot be preserved, we provide careful, stress free extractions with full aftercare. We’ll also guide you through replacement options such as implants or bridges, so your smile remains healthy and complete.
