A New Smile For the New Year Leicester Nottingham Derby

Wednesday, October 28th, 2009

Simple forms of treatment such as white fillings or teeth whitening can greatly improve a smile. If you would like a more dramatic improvement, then you can consider:

- dental veneers, which can conceal gaps, misshaped or discoloured teeth

- crowns, which can restore more damaged teeth

- bridges or implants, which can fill gaps left by missing teeth

- teeth straightening, to correct any severe crowding or spacing

If you would like to find out more about the most suitable treatment option, why not call us on 01509 231144

Single Dental Implant

Tuesday, September 8th, 2009

The general public is becoming more and more aware about the great advantages of dental implants in replacing missing teeth. We see many patients from local areas, such as Birstall, Thurmaston, Sileby and from further away areas such as Northampton or Peterborough, coming to us asking for dental implants.

We recently saw this patient who had a single dental implant to replace a missing teeth. She did not want a plate and did not want a bridge as did not want to have her healthy adjacent teeth cut down.  An Astra Implant was used and it was restored with a high quality porcelain bonded to gold crown.

Fast Braces

Monday, May 4th, 2009

The following patient attended our clinic after he suffered trauma to his front tooth. This trauma had caused the tooth to move inwards which affected the smile. After speaking about the options, he wished to straighten his smile by the “six month smiles” programme. Actually this treatment was completed in 5 MONTHS! The patient was fitted a fixed retainer to ensure teeth would not move after removal of the braces.

Teeth damaged by fizzy drinks and smoking

Sunday, April 26th, 2009

A recent tv programme on channel 4 highlighted the damage that fizzy drinks and smoking can do to teeth and gums.

FIZZY DRINKS

Not many people are aware that fizzy drinks, even diet ones, can seriously damage their teeth. A 500 ml bottle of coke has 50 spoonfuls of sugar!!! It is not just the sugar that damages the teeth, but also the acid present in the drinks. We are seeing more and more teenarges with worn teeth and this tooth wear is due to the amount of fizzy drinks they have.

SMOKING

It has been shown that smoking worsens gum health. There are so many harmful chemicals in cigarettes that can cause so much damage to our general health. The more specific damage to the teeth and gums are:

- staining

- gum disease

- impaired gum healing

- mouth cancer

For more advise on a healthy diet and on stopping smoking, come and see us and our wonderful hygienist, Rebecca.

Inman Aligner case

Monday, February 9th, 2009

This is one of the recent Inman aligner cases that I have completed. We get many patient requesting the Inman aligner as we are the first dental practice in Leicester to offer this treatment.

This case has taken 4 months to complete and the results are exceptional.


Now that treatment is completed, the patient is wearing a bonded and removable retainer to reduce the risk of relapse and to maintain the tooth position.

Good fitting, comfortable dentures

Sunday, August 10th, 2008

Both Kal and I get new patients coming through the door complaining that their dentures don’t fit properly they are too loose and that they are embarassed to go out for a meal as they are worried they may drop out when eating.

In some cases even the best denture can be slightly loose when the jaw bone is too flat to help retain a denture.

The solution to this problem is: denture retained by dental implants

 

Recently a patient from Coalville came in to see us and asked what are the advantages of implant-retained dentures.

The advantages are:

- great retention of the denture

-reduced cost when compared to full mouth implants and bridges. Therefore this type of treatment can suit patients who have financial constraints.

For more info look at our implant video on our website
