What to Expect During Your Visit

1. Warm Welcome and Discussion:
   Your visit starts with a friendly chat where we learn more about your medical history, current concerns, and what you'd like to achieve. Whether it's relief from discomfort, improved chewing, or simply peace of mind, your comfort and goals guide our care.

2. Thorough Oral Examination:
   We conduct a complete evaluation of your teeth, gums, and jaw to check for decay, gum disease, signs of wear, and oral cancer. We may also take x-rays to get a full picture of your oral health.

3. Personalised Treatment Plan:
   Based on your needs and preferences, we’ll provide a clear explanation of any recommended treatments and present you with options that align with your lifestyle and budget.

4. Compassionate, Quality Treatment:
   Whether you’re having a routine clean or opting for dental restorations, we’ll ensure your treatment is comfortable, effective, and suited to your individual needs.

Helping You Eat, Speak, and Smile with Ease

We understand that everyday activities like chewing, speaking, and smiling can be affected by age-related dental changes. Missing teeth, ill-fitting dentures, or gum issues can make it harder to enjoy food or feel confident. Our goal is to restore your comfort and dignity through reliable solutions, including:

• Custom Dentures: Designed to fit securely and comfortably, our full and partial dentures allow you to eat and speak with ease.

• Implants and Bridges: These provide fixed, durable alternatives to removable prosthetics, offering a more natural feel and appearance.

• Minimally Invasive Options: We favour conservative treatments that protect your remaining teeth and maintain your oral structure.

Your Oral Health Is Part of Your Overall Health

Oral health is closely linked to general wellbeing. Infections in the mouth can contribute to heart conditions, diabetes complications, and systemic inflammation. That’s why regular dental care is especially important as we age. At Ricci Dental, we view your dental care as an integral part of maintaining a vibrant, healthy lifestyle.
