How to make brushing teeth fun for kids!

The last thing any parent needs first thing in the morning are tears, tantrums and traumas when trying to brush your kids teeth. When you are up against a deadline for leaving the house on time, this can be an exhausting experience. You are trying to do the best thing by them, but they don’t fully understand why the brushing needs to happen and it certainly doesn’t fit with a 3-year-olds agenda. There are far more fun things to be doing first thing in the morning like watching Peppa pig, emptying the kitchen cupboards or tearing round the house like a Tasmanian devil.The same applies to nighttime brushing. It’s the time of day that you need everything to wind down in preparation for a peaceful slumber. This is not the time for drama, upset and agitation, so why does it seem to result in an emotional meltdown?

Impacted Wisdom Teeth: 10 warning signs to watch out for

Wisdom teeth are really a relic from the days of old. Whilst they served well for our genetic ancestors who needed to grind tough plants, roots and uncooked meats, these 3rd molars serve no use to modern day man.Most people will develop 4 wisdom teeth in each corner of their jaw between the ages of 17-25. They can hide discreetly under the gums without detection for years, but can sadly create chaos when they eventually decide to emerge (erupt). This is where the term ‘Impacted Wisdom Teeth’ comes into play. An impacted wisdom tooth is one which lacks the space it needs to ‘erupt’ and therefore surfaces at an awkward angle, becomes completely stuck or only emerges partially.

How to achieve straight teeth without fixed braces

Anyone growing up since the 70’s would have spent their adolescents in classrooms full of kids wearing braces. For those wearing the braces it was an unwelcome fixture that made already self conscious, hormonal teenagers wish the ground to come and swallow them up for the fear of ridicule or bullying.Looking back as an adult, wearing fixed braces in your youth may have felt like an enduring challenge but you are probably thankful that you stuck it out when you did. During the last 20 years we have witnessed more and more adults having to embark on their orthodontic journey later in life, when they didn’t receive the treatment they needed back during those formative years.

What’s the difference between dental plaque and tartar?

We get enough reminders from toothpaste and mouthwash ads to know that dental plaque and tartar are not something we want for our teeth. We are told that they are the devil for our denticles, sneakily setting up home in our mouths when we least expect it, causing all sorts of havoc for our oral health.The concept of keeping our teeth clean is instilled in us from an early age. In fact, the NHS recommends that you should start brushing your babies teeth as soon as their milk teeth start to show. This can be as early as 6 months old. If not, we are warned that our precious little innocents will be struck down with the dreaded mouth monsters, faced with years of discomfort and decay.

Dental Sedation: How to relax in the dentist’s chair

For many, the prospect of lying in a dentist’s chair couldn’t be more nerve-wracking. Just the idea is enough to make people avoid treatment completely, even when suffering from extraordinary amounts of pain. Unfortunately, the more time that passes between visits, the worse a dental condition is likely to become.What many don’t realise due to their long-running aversion tactics, is that since they last visited a dentist, relaxation and sedation protocols have come on in leaps and bounds. Dentists nowadays are as skilled in delivering anxiety-free, pain-free experiences as they are in performing the oral procedures themselves.

The Ins and Outs of Teeth Grinding

Clench, grind, repeat. Routinely and repeatedly dragging your teeth against each other using the strength of your jaw muscles is commonly know as Teeth Grinding or medically known as Bruxism. It is a highly common behaviour, but often not detected as it occurs entirely subconsciously. In fact, many of us could have been grinding for years whilst being blissfully unaware. This is unless you have enraged your long-suffering bed companion who has their own sleep disrupted by the sounds of your nocturnal gnashing.

Looking for a Harley Street Dentist? Look no further…

To understand the significance of Harley Street in dental history, you must cast your mind back to the Regency era of London. For those who have been glued to the Netflix series ‘Bridgerton’ in recent weeks, you will be familiar with the high-society prestige which was characteristic of the West End of London during the 19th century. This was a period of classical architecture, horse and carriage and Jane Austen-esque fashion where the rich spent their time attending balls and promenading in the Royal Parks.
