Regular dental check ups!

Why do I need regular check-ups?

Dentist carrying out a routine dental check-up

Regular dental exams allow your dentist to identify any dental problems early and help keep your mouth healthy. Leaving problems untreated can make them more difficult to treat in the future. It’s best to catch issues early or even prevent them from occurring.

What will the dentist do during an examination?

The dentist will examine your teeth, gums, and mouth. You will be asked about any issues since your last visit, and advice on your diet, smoking, and alcohol habits may be discussed if needed.

What happens after your visit?

After your check-up, the dentist will advise when your next visit should be—this could be as soon as 3 months or as long as 2 years (1 year if you're under 18). The lower your risk of dental issues, the longer the interval between visits.

I had been suffering with pain for a few weeks from my wisdom tooth. But unable to get into my usual dental surgery for over a month.
Found an appointment for same day. And due to being anxious about dentist I was worried about going.
When I arrived the staff greeted me and eased my nerves.
During the consultant the dentist and staff made me felt at ease. Went through each step and then went through treatment options. Needed to have the tooth removed. The nurse and dentist were amazing. Comforted me and also allowed to have my mum in the room with me. They went through the procedure with my and then my after care afterwards. I would definitely recommend to anywho is nervous about going to the dentist like me.

So grateful I was recommended to The Dentist.
I have my smile back
They listened to me and guided me on all options and was not pushy, if anything they scaled my thinking back to towards achieving realistic results.
I found we built trust in a very small window which is mainly down to their adherence on delivering patient care.

I found we built trust in a very small window which is mainly down to their adherence on delivering patient care.
Treatments I have had is teeth whitening and two front crowns- since having the treatment my confidence has blossomed and my smile is back on point.
I struggle with anxiety and become extremely panicked when in confined zones. The reassurance and care offered/delivered was extremely helpful and I felt safe in the care of The Dentist

Thank you
