Foxbury Dental

Foxbury Dental provides private dental care from its practice in Husbands Bosworth. Its treatment areas include general dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, kids dentistry, orthodontics, fixed braces for adults and children, dental implants, Invisalign, composite bonding, emergency dentistry and professional teeth whitening, including Zoom Whitening.

The practice sees nervous adults and parents, and its first visits are set up with time to discuss worries, previous dental experiences and what a patient would prefer to avoid. Appointments can begin with a conversation before any examination if that is preferred. Clinicians explain each step in plain language, may use X-rays where useful, and can agree a signal to pause during treatment.

Comfort options named by the practice include topical numbing gel before local anaesthetic, techniques intended to make injections easier, noise-reducing headphones and breaks during the appointment. Patients can also plan a later hygienist visit separately if they do not want to include this at the first appointment.

Emergency dental care covers problems such as severe toothache, lost or broken fillings, chipped teeth, crowns that have come off, broken dentures, infections and swellings. Emergency appointments may include an examination, an X-ray if needed, local anaesthetic, dressing a cavity, re-cementing a crown, smoothing a sharp edge, placing a temporary filling, draining an abscess, prescribing antibiotics where clinically appropriate, or discussing extraction where this is the advised option. Follow-up care may be planned after a temporary repair.

Care is provided in person, and video consultations are also available. The practice sets aside urgent dental slots each day and says it aims to offer same-day help where possible.

Access details include free car parking and disabled access at the rear of the surgery. The dentists state that they adhere to the guidelines governing the profession, which can be viewed through the General Dental Council.
