This review is from someone who had not visited the dentist for 24 years 😱
I was terrified of the Dentist I am 62 and in my day we had gas and air and an old miserable old man who was rough with you even as a child hence my fear .
Andy at No 4 and Karen have been amazing I had 8 composite filling today , I have been worrying for days about this and even have to get my husband to get me there. Right from sitting in the chair Andy was very kind gentle and Karen asking if I was comfortable explaining every step of what they were about to do . Hour and 15 mins later finished and I was fine no pain and a fantastic job.
Honestly I thought I’d be running out of that chair as soon as they had finished but been as I was there strike why the Iorn is hot I got another filling done one I was going to go back for !!!😱so happy and can not thank you enough at making me feel brave and calm .
If your scared or anxious of dentist visit No 4 see for yourself 👍🏼

Best dental experience I’ve ever had! From Luisa’s incredible late evening response to my initial query, to the respectful, informative and gentle treatment from Andy & Zoe for a very painful tooth.
For anyone with bad dental experiences or anxiety about dental appointments, I can vouch for No4 Dental Studio. The space is so relaxing, clean and modern. All the staff are kind, friendly and approachable. Andy took time to explain my dental scans etc and gave me time consider the options available to me without any pressure.
I’m so pleased to have found such a wonderful local dental practice at last. Thank you to the team!

I am so glad I found No.4 Dental studio. Luisa made me feel so welcome on the phone and on arriving for the first time at the studio.
Andy made me feel very comfortable and confident in his professional expertise. I can quite honestly say I have never in all my life had anyone do such a thorough examination and his attention to detail was outstanding. I had my teeth scanned and photographed and an Xray. Andy did not rush the process spending time explaining about my teeth, their present state and giving me chance to ask questions. Without his care and attention to detail I would not have been aware of some serious issues arising.
As a Nutritionist I know of the importance of good oral hygiene, however the stress of life means we don't always practice what we preach. I am now going to be able to save my teeth due to Andy's care and diligence, plus get back into healthy practice myself.
I highly recommend you pay Andy and Luisa a visit, as you will not regret it and the health of our teeth reflect the health of our body, and mind.
Thank you Andy and Luisa.

Recently found this new dental practice in Ripon. Have seen both the dentist and hygienist and have received first class service, honest assessment and advice, courteous and professional treatment. Xrays, a pain free large filling and deep clean was reasonably priced considering the high standard of treatment.
Happy to return for my next checkup.

Really easy to book an appointment. All the staff were friendly, and welcoming. Andy is an excellent dentist who really took the time to diagnose and understand my situation. Would highly recommend.
There’s nothing quite like your own teeth for effective biting, smiling and chewing. You need confidence that replacement teeth will look, feel and function just like your own.
Dental implants are as close as you can get to having your natural teeth back, so you can eat the things you like, and smile your full, natural, confident smile.
Andy has completed over 500 dental implants, so you can be sure you’re in good hands.

Andy was excellent throughout the whole process of my dental implant. I had suffered for years with my tooth after an injury but since having the implant it’s perfect. Being anxious about dentists in general I was apprehensive to have an implant but Andy made me feel comfortable at every stage of the treatment. I’m so pleased with the results, I highly recommend Andy and the whole team as they are very friendly and caring.

9 Reasons to choose dental implants
Dental implants are fixed in place, not removable
They are self-supporting, so they don’t put any strain on your other teeth (like bridges and dentures)
You can enjoy eating a normal healthy diet confidently and with ease
They look and feel natural so you can smile confidently
Dental implants last longer than other types of replacement teeth, with 90-95% success at 10 years
They prevent adjacent teeth from drifting into gaps, causing problems with cleaning, biting and chewing
Plaque removal is easier because dental implants eliminate gaps
Your natural teeth are preserved because there’s no need to shave enamel down as with a bridge
Dental implants help to preserve your natural jawbone, which prevents shrinkage and the appearance of ageing
Are dental implants for me?
If you suffer because of your missing teeth, dental implants may well be for you.
Implants are a great solution for most adults, with very few barriers to treatment. Even in the situation where some preliminary care may be required, we can help you with this.
Before we agree to start your implant treatment, this is what we look for:
You have good dental and gum health – we can help you achieve this if needs be
Your general health is good-to-fair – most common health conditions, including osteoporosis, are not an obstacle
You’re a non-smoker – or are willing to quit
We’ll check how much bone you have – we can add extra bone if you’re a little short
You’re motivated to look after your implants – we’ll help you with everything you need to do to look after your new teeth
Age is not a barrier – it’s just a number.
About dental implants
What are Dental Implants?
The implant is a titanium post which is designed and shaped so it can replace a natural tooth root. The implant fuses to the jawbone which creates a strong foundation to support a replacement tooth.
After the implant has fully healed, our dental technician creates a custom-made crown to fit onto your implant. They will design your crown so it matches your other teeth and fits into your bite to give the most natural possible result.
We use a small holding screw to secure the crown in place on the implant, and seal over the small access hole to finish.
We use BioHorizons dental implants. BioHorizons manufacture their implants in America and they are one of the world’s leading manufacturers. They have decades of research and development, so you can be safe in the knowledge that your implant is of the highest quality.
How can we use implants?
Single tooth
Multiple teeth
Full set – fixed in place
Full set – secure removable denture
All-on-4 (teeth in a day)
Sometimes called smile-in-a-day or all-on-6.
We’ll always make sure you’re not left with gaps at any stage. Even immediately after your treatment, it’s important to be able to smile.
Often, we can fit teeth directly onto your implants at the same appointment we fit your implants. We can do this with single teeth, multiple teeth or a full set of teeth. This means that you can avoid having a removable denture and go straight to a fixed solution.
This isn’t suitable for everybody. We’d usually have a good idea if this is an option following your CBCT scan, and can plan your treatment to get the best result.
The Implant Journey – What happens during my treatment?
Without Bone Addition
Takes 4-5 months
For you if you already have good bone volume.

Andy Berwick is the implant dentist at No.4. Andy has a great deal of experience with implants so we would usually provide your care from start to finish.
If your regular dentist has referred you to us for treatment, then they may choose to fit your implant crown themselves.
How much do dental implants cost in Ripon?
Generally, the starting price for a simple single tooth dental implant is around £2,990.
Everybody is different, so once you’ve visited us, we can provide you with a fully personalised quote for your chosen solution.
If you have a fixed budget, we’ll talk through different options for you so you get the maximum benefit from your investment
If you have good bone and good dental health, then we can often complete your treatment in around 4 months.
If we need to add extra bone to support your implants, then your treatment usually takes around 8 months.
How long do dental implants last?
Implants are the longest-lasting type of solution for replacing a missing tooth. They are much more predictable than alternatives such as bridges or dentures.
If you look after your dental implants well at home, and come for your regular dental and hygiene appointments, many will last for decades
BioHorizons implants are based and manufactured in the USA. They are one of the world’s leading manufacturers with decades of research and development behind them.
You can be safe in the knowledge that your implants are manufactured to the highest quality
What if I don’t have enough bone for dental implants?
We’ll check how much bone you have when you visit for your assessment and planning.
If you have less than the ideal amount, we can usually add extra bone before or alongside your dental implant. This means that your implant is well-supported going forwards
Does it hurt to have dental implants?
You’ll be surprised how comfortable your dental implant treatment is.
We’ll give you plenty of anaesthetic to keep you comfortable during your appointments.
It’s normal of course to be a little sore for a short while afterwards. We’ll advise you to take some normal painkillers, so you can be back to your normal activities within a few days
