General dentistry in Stoke-on-Trent

Regular check-ups allow us to spot problems early - before a small cavity becomes something more involved, or early gum disease progresses further than it needs to. Your check-up is a proper, thorough assessment of your teeth, gums, and soft tissues - not a quick glance and a wave goodbye.

Dental pain doesn't wait for a convenient moment. If you're in significant pain, have a broken tooth, a lost filling, a dental abscess, or any other urgent concern, get in touch with us as soon as possible. We see both new and existing patients for emergency appointments and will always do our best to see you quickly.

We predominantly use white composite fillings at Modwena Dental - no metal, no dark patches, just a natural-looking restoration that blends seamlessly with your tooth. Composite bonds directly to the tooth structure, meaning less healthy tooth needs to be removed compared to traditional amalgam. Straightforward, comfortable, and done in a single appointment.

Healthy gums are the foundation of a healthy smile. Our hygiene team - Louise Johnston and Courtney Lacey - offer both standard hygiene appointments and direct access hygiene, meaning you can book straight in without needing to see a dentist first. Professional cleaning, personalised advice, and a plan for keeping your gums in the best shape possible.

Your first visit to Modwena Dental is 30 minutes of dedicated clinical time - covering a full oral health assessment, digital X-rays where needed, intraoral scanning, and a personalised treatment plan. Patients regularly tell us how thorough it feels. It's far more than a standard check-up, and it sets the foundation for everything that follows.

Root canal treatment has an undeserved reputation. In experienced hands and with modern techniques, it's typically no more uncomfortable than a filling - and it saves a tooth that would otherwise need to come out. Henry James, one of our associate dentists, has a particular interest in root canal treatment and carries this work out regularly.

Dental anxiety affects a lot of people - and it's nothing to be embarrassed about. IV sedation, delivered in-house by Edward Cully, puts you in a deeply relaxed state throughout your treatment so you can get the care you need without the fear getting in the way. Available alongside most dental treatments at the practice.
