Real Dentistry sits in the heart of Kilbirnie, offering Wellington families a full range of dental care under one roof. From routine hygiene checkups through to restorative treatments and cosmetic dentistry, the practice positions itself around realistically priced, efficient and authentic local dentistry.
The clinic organises its services into four main areas: general dental care, restorative dental care, cosmetic dentistry, and preventative dentistry. General care covers root canal treatment, tooth extraction, wisdom tooth extraction, and dental sedation for patients who need it. On the restorative side, the practice offers dental fillings, crowns, implants, single tooth replacement, dental bridges, implant supported bridges, and full arch fixed bridges for more extensive work.
Cosmetic dentistry at Real Dentistry includes teeth whitening, dentures, and implant supported dentures, giving patients options whether they're looking to brighten their smile or replace missing teeth. Preventative dentistry rounds out the offering with hygiene treatments and dental night guards, aimed at keeping problems from developing in the first place.
