Best UK Dental Practice 2020 Winners

Despite being a tumultuous year, 2020 gave us some cause for celebration and to remind us that there are always reasons to be grateful. One of our greatest achievements of last year was to be crowned Winner of Best UK Dental Practice 2020 in GHP Magazines’ Oral Health and Dentistry Awards. This was no mean feat considering there are over 12,000 dental practices in the UK. There is stiff competition in the industry with long-established clinics and excellent practitioners operating the length and breadth of the country. We are especially honoured with this title since our family of dental clinics was only really established in 2018. It has taken an immense amount of effort and commitment from all the team across our practices to warrant such an accolade in such a short period of time. So you might be wondering, how did we reach this stage and what does the title of ‘Best UK Dental Practice’ mean to us? Here’s a little insight.

Professional Teeth Cleaning vs Brushing at Home

Us Brits it seems, are more conscious than ever of our health and appearance. A survey conducted by Vitality last year reveals that the average citizen spends £2,500 per year on a combination of gym memberships, supplements and health foods. You can almost double this figure when taking into account purchases of cosmetics, toiletries and beauty products and the investment in regular beauty treatments. A nice facial does the trick when you feel your skin is looking a little lacklustre. A nice relaxing massage is lovely when your back starts to bug you with aches and pains. A trip to the barbers will soon sort out this unruly barnet. How about some gym time to get the heart pumping? We put in a lot of time and money to looking and feeling our best. Can the same be said about our teeth?

Can my teeth be saved from advanced gum disease?

In an ideal world if you are maintaining a diligent oral cleanliness routine, gum disease is unlikely to cause you any problem. However, if the problem has already started to manifest in symptoms then you may be beyond the point that a magic mouthwash or a new trending toothbrush can help. It’s important to watch out for the early warning signs of gum disease and to take action quick. If left for too long it can evolve into a far more worrying condition which will require much greater professional intervention. This is when we are referring to Advanced Gum Disease.

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.
