your dental health.
Preventive dentistry
Preventive dentistry is the modern way of
reducing the amount of dental treatment
necessary to maintain a healthy mouth. With
the joint efforts of our team, the aim is
to prevent the need for treatment, and so
avoid the traditional pattern of fillings
and extractions. It is likely that a course
of treatment will be recommended to get
your mouth into excellent condition, and
a plan worked out to help you keep it that
way.

Cosmetic
Dentistry
Dentistry
is no longer just a case of filling and
extracting teeth, as it was for many years.
Nowadays, many people turn to dentistry
as a way of improving their appearance,
much as they would use cosmetic surgery
or even a new hairstyle. Cosmetic treatments
include veneers, crowns, bridges and tooth-coloured
fillings.
Topics
covered in this section:-
Root
Canal Therapy
If
a tooth's pulp (nerve and blood supply)
become infected or inflamed, root canal
treatment is often the only way to save
the tooth.
Missing
teeth
Your
appearance is one reason. Another is that
the gap left by a missing tooth can mean
greater strain is put on the teeth on each
side. A gap can also mean your 'bite' is
affected, because the teeth next to the
space can lean into the gap and alter the
way the upper and lower teeth bite together.
This can then lead to food getting packed
into the gap, which causes both decay and
gum disease.
Implants
Implants are a tried and tested method of
securing false teeth and 90% of them last
for more than 15 years.
Mouth
Cancer
Mouth
cancer can effect any one and the incidence
in the UK is on the increase. However, if
it is identified early the chances of a
full recovery are very high. |
