The team at Laurel Villa has been led by our practice manager, Karen, for 16 years to date. Over this time she has helped to develop the current team of nurses and receptionists. The dentists at Laurel Villa also bring a wealth of experience. We try to offer a comprehensive service in-house. This involves the provision of all aspects of NHS dentistry, as well as adult orthodontics, implants and facial aesthetics.
The team works closely together to help you satisfy your treatment needs in the best environment possible. Laurel Villa operates a 24-hour cancellation policy that allows patients to reschedule their appointments at the time of calling. If you cancel on the day of the appointment, we kindly request that you call on the next working day to reorganise.
Repeat short-notice cancellations and subsequent failure in attendance may lead to deregistration.

This appointment involves a thorough, structured examination of your oral health.
The dentist will assess the condition of the teeth and gums as well as the surrounding tissues.
Our emphasis is prevention; hence regular six monthly check-ups are encouraged.
Digital x-rays are taken routinely at your first visit and when appropriate thereafter.
If any treatment is found to be required, the dentist will discuss the options and provide a breakdown of the plan.
We can monitor development and assist with maintenance and prevention using fluoride application and fissure sealants.

Tooth whitening is a very effective means of improving appearance.
It can be done alone, or as part of a treatment plan that may include crowns or white fillings on the visible teeth.
Under current EU guidelines, we currently provide custom made whitening trays with kits of 6% hydrogen peroxide.
Shade improvements are normally achieved in 2-4 weeks with good technique and consistent use.
Porcelain veneers can be used to transform the shape, alignment and colour of your front teeth.
Following a smile design consultation with your dentist, a mock up of the final size and shape of the veneers can be used to finalise the treatment plan.

Laurel Villa has provided NHS dental care in the St Helens area for a number of years.
The practice continues to believe in a quality service for all the family, and new patients are always welcome.
This covers an examination, diagnosis (including X-rays), advice on how to prevent future problems, a scale and polish if clinically needed, and preventative care such as the application of fluoride varnish or fissure sealant if appropriate.
This covers everything listed in Band 1 above, plus any further treatment such as fillings, root canal work or removal of teeth but not more complex items covered by Band 3.

We are trained at Laurel Villa to offer both fixed and removable brace systems.
The fixed system is called Cfast.
It consists of clear brackets on the front surfaces connected by a tooth coloured nickel titanium wire.
The removable system is called Invisalign Go and consists of a series of removable clear acrylic aligners.
Following a thorough assessment with your dentist and laboratory analysis of the moulds of your teeth, case suitability to the appropriate system can be decided.
Case length is usually 3 to 6 months.
