Preventing dental accidents

Sports injuries


Unfortunately accidents can damage teeth, often beyond repair. We cannot prevent all dental accidents, but we can predict when they are more likely to occur, such as when we participate in certain sports. In these instances, teeth can be protected to reduce the chance of injury by using Gum Shields.



The best protection is from custom made Gum Shields that fit your mouth accurately.
We are able to make custom made gum shields with a variety of designs and colours to suit you. We can also make them of a variety of thicknesses and strength to suit the sports you participate in.

Preventative dentistry

 

Major  causes of tooth loss are decay and gum disease. Regular visits to a dental hygienist or dentist will help enable you to keep your mouth in great health by giving advice on how to prevent such disease. Preventing decay may involve advice on diet, brushing and fluoride suplements, and gum disease can be prevented with advice on brushing techniques that are easy and effective, along with regular visits with our hygienist to remove any calculus and staining that has built up.
Prevention advice starts early Couple with confident smile
Encouraging tooth brushing techniques Preventative dentistry is our priority
Our dentists may recommend a course of treatment to get your mouth into good condition and then a maintenance plan will be worked out to suit your needs.

Everyone is susceptible in varying degrees to common dental diseases such as tooth decay and gum disease and our aim is to help you reduce or eliminate your experience of these.

 

Our care plans are designed to encourage regular attendance with the one of our three hygienists, and regular reviews of the health of your teeth, gums and mouth. From this we can customise our advice and treatment that we provide you.
