The start of a new year often brings a renewed focus on health and wellbeing. Many of us set intentions to feel better, look after ourselves, and address things we’ve been meaning to for a while. From a dental point of view, the New Year is an ideal opportunity to reset habits and prioritise your oral health.
For many people, visiting the dentist can bring a sense of anxiety, and at tooth, we understand that completely. Dental phobia is far more common than most people realise, and it often stems from previous negative experiences, fear of pain, or simply feeling out of control in an unfamiliar environment. At tooth, we’ve worked hard to create a calm, open and reassuring experience for every patient, especially those who feel nervous.
Modern dentistry has changed more in the last decade than in the previous fifty years. At tooth, we’ve invested heavily in advanced digital technology to ensure your care is more comfortable, more accurate, and more predictable than ever before.
If you’ve ever wondered how new tools such as 3D scanners, CBCT scans, or OPG imaging improve your visit, this blog will walk you through exactly what they mean for your dental experience.
As Principal Dentist at tooth dental care in Waterloo, London, I often see patients who don’t realise just how much damage teeth grinding, also called bruxism, can cause. Many people grind their teeth in their sleep without even knowing it, while others clench their jaws during the day when stressed or concentrating. Grinding your teeth can have serious long-term effects on your oral health. In this blog, I’ll explain the risks, the warning signs to look out for, and the treatments available to protect your smile.
