Comprehensive Care, Crafted With Precision
From routine check-ups to complex restorative work, every treatment at Luminous is delivered with the same meticulous attention to comfort, aesthetics, and long-term health.
General & Preventative Dentistry
Our comprehensive general dentistry services focus on preventing problems before they arise and treating existing conditions with the least invasive approach possible. Every new patient receives a thorough assessment including digital X-rays, oral cancer screening, and a personalised care plan.
What to Expect
Your appointment begins with a warm welcome and a conversation about your concerns. We'll conduct a thorough examination using our intraoral cameras so you can see exactly what we see. Together, we'll create a treatment plan that respects your budget and timeline.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Our cosmetic treatments are designed to enhance your natural beauty, not create an artificial look. Dr. Patel and our team use Digital Smile Design technology to preview your results before treatment begins, ensuring your new smile feels authentically yours.
What to Expect
A cosmetic consultation includes a comprehensive smile analysis, photographs, and — where appropriate — a Digital Smile Design preview so you can see your potential results. We'll discuss options, timelines, and costs transparently before any treatment begins.
Orthodontics & Invisalign
Led by Dr. Marcus Lane — one of the UK's leading Invisalign Diamond Providers — our orthodontic service offers discreet, comfortable solutions for misaligned teeth at any age. Using 3D treatment planning, we can show you your predicted results before you commit.
What to Expect
Your orthodontic journey starts with a complimentary consultation including 3D scanning. Dr. Lane will present your predicted outcome using ClinCheck software. Treatment typically takes 6–18 months, with check-ups every 6–8 weeks.
Dental Implants
Dental implants are the gold standard for replacing missing teeth. Dr. Whitmore's 22 years of implant experience and our 3D CBCT imaging technology ensure predictable, long-lasting results. We offer single implants, bridges, and full-arch solutions including All-on-4.
What to Expect
An implant consultation includes a CBCT 3D scan to assess bone volume and a detailed treatment plan. Surgery is performed under local anaesthesia (or sedation if preferred) and typically takes 45–90 minutes. Healing takes 3–6 months before the final restoration is placed.
Teeth Whitening
Our professional whitening treatments are far more effective and safer than over-the-counter alternatives. We offer both in-clinic Zoom whitening for immediate results and custom take-home kits for gradual brightening at your convenience.
What to Expect
An in-clinic Zoom session takes approximately one hour and can lighten teeth by up to 8 shades. Take-home kits use custom-fitted trays worn for 30 minutes daily over 2–3 weeks. We'll help you choose the right option for your lifestyle and goals.
Hygiene & Gum Therapy
Led by Sophie Chen, our hygiene team uses the latest guided biofilm therapy protocol for the most thorough, comfortable clean possible. Regular hygiene appointments are essential for preventing gum disease — the leading cause of tooth loss in adults.
What to Expect
Your hygiene appointment includes a comprehensive gum assessment, professional cleaning using our EMS Airflow system, and personalised advice on maintaining your results at home. Most appointments take 45–60 minutes.
Emergency Dental Care
Dental emergencies — whether a broken tooth, severe pain, or a lost filling — don't wait for convenient appointment times. We reserve same-day emergency slots every day and offer an out-of-hours emergency line for registered patients.
What to Expect
Call our emergency line and we'll see you as quickly as possible — often within the hour. Our first priority is always to relieve your pain. We'll then assess the situation, explain your options clearly, and provide immediate treatment or a stabilisation plan.
Children's Dentistry
We believe positive early dental experiences shape a lifetime of oral health. Our children's programme is designed to be fun, educational, and completely stress-free — for both children and parents. We welcome patients from 12 months of age.
What to Expect
Children's appointments are unhurried and playful. We use 'tell-show-do' techniques to build confidence, and our child-sized equipment makes everything more comfortable. Parents are welcome to stay throughout. We'll provide age-appropriate brushing guidance too.
