3 simple steps to a beautifully aligned smile:

  1. Consultation and planning
    After an initial consultation Stuart or Sofia will take photos, X-rays and digital scans, or a dental impression, of your teeth. These records will take precise measurements to make your custom made clear aligners for the most comfortable fit.
  2. Transformation
    After your aligners have been custom made, Stuart or Sofia will fit them ensuring they fit well and are comfortable, so you can begin your straightening journey.

    You’ll need to return to see Stuart or Sofia every 4 to 6 weeks to check on your progress and provide your next set of aligners, to slowly guide your teeth into position.
  3. Retaining your new smile
    Once your new smile is achieved, you’ll need to wear a retainer to ensure your teeth remain beautifully aligned. Retainers can either be removable clear trays, similar to a mouth guard, or a fixed retainer which are discreetly attached to the back of the teeth for continual support.

I recently had the Airflow stain removal treatment and was so impressed with the whole experience. From the moment I walked in I was greeted by the friendly receptionist, Lola, who guided me through a short form as I am not registered at this dentist but this was no issue at all. Emma, who carried out this treatment was fantastic. She clearly explained each step and regularly checked I was comfortable. Leah was also so reassuring and helpful. I felt well looked after throughout. The results were even better than I expected. My teeth look and feel great. I’ve already had compliments and I feel much more confident with my smile. Thank you so much Emma, Leah and Lola!

I had toothache that required looking at, I was told by the clinician that extraction was the only safe option as the tooth had split. I was given the option of taking time to think about immediate treatment or to book an appointment later. I opted for immediate treatment which was performed painlessly in less that an hour. I was advised as to what after care was available should a problem occur following the extraction. I'm happy to say no further pain or bleeding occurred. I was advised which follow up treatments are available to conceal the gap left in my 'smile' area. I plan to have follow up treatment.

On Thursday 3rd July 2025 I attended my regular Dental Practice at HestBank, Lancaster for a root filling and an extraction. Wik, my dental assistant at the time was very professional, obviously happy in her work and looked after me, constantly asking if I was ok, whilst assisting my dentist Stuart in his dental work. 5* service from Wik and Stuart, thank you. The whole Practice deserves a 5* rating for a friendly and professional approach to their work

On Thursday 3rd July 2025 I attended my regular Dental Practice at HestBank, Lancaster for a root filling and an extraction. My dentist Stuart was, as always, very professional, willing to explain the procedures in detail and answer all of my questions in a way that I could understand. His dental assistant Wik was also very professional, obviously happy in her work and looked after me, constantly asking if I was ok, whilst assisting Stuart in his dental workThe whole practice is very friendly, immaculately clean and somewhere I would not hesitate to recommend - a great team. I travel from Leeds, West Yorkshire every time I need to visit the dentist, so it must be good to justify that journey over the M62 each time!Dale Charnock, Leeds, West Yorkshire

My dentist Mike has always done a great job looking after my teeth, although tbf not really had a great deal to do on them over the years.
