The health of your mouth remains important throughout life . As one progresses from teenage to twenties and thirties, dietary habits become more stable and dental caries – holes in your teeth – should become less likely. However, gum problems can begin and maintaining good oral hygiene is essential if gum problems are to be avoided.

We can offer regular 15 point examination appointments with the dentist, when not only your teeth and gums, but the soft tissues of your mouth and lips and other structures around your mouth will be checked. A written report will be provided for you at the completion of each oral health assessment.

We also offer regular appointments with our hygienists. Plaque control is important for the prevention of gum disease and the hygienist can show you techniques to help to reach those difficult places to clean.

If you have any concerns about the appearance of your teeth, we can offer tooth whitening – that important wedding coming up maybe? – or sometimes something as simple as adjusting the shape of teeth with some adhesive composite materials can enhance your smile. Even replacing old, discoloured fillings can help to improve the appearance of your teeth.

Missing teeth can be restored with implants or sometimes adhesive bridgework. And if you have a denture, we can discuss with you the alternatives that might be available..

We do believe that your tooth structure is important and we will do all we can to keep that for you, rather than attacking it with drills, if we can avoid it.

Mouth cancer is rare but not unknown in this age group, particularly in some high risk groups of people. Mouth cancer in its early stages is usually symptomless – you will not know its there – but early diagnosis at a check-up appointment can aid early diagnosis and treatment.
