Thoughts about dentistry and inspiration for the the week ahead

06/06/2021

Once glorious but now a little the worse for wear. I saw this house whilst out for a bike ride.

I’ve seen a few patients recently who have had life get in the way of maintaining their oral health.😬

As one gentleman who’d come back after a number of years with a broken molar said last week. “You tend to take your teeth for granted until something like this happens. It’s only then that you realise that you want to keep your teeth and better get back on track”.✅

I love helping people like this. We make a plan together making sure it fits around work, life and financial commitments🤝

It’s never too late to get back on track.

And as I’ve said before, I’m not here to judge you, I’m here to help and get you feeling great about your oral health🤗

It can happen any time 😱⁠
⁠
My daughter fainted and broke her front tooth⁠
⁠
This was the photo she sent me when it happend 😳⁠
⁠
Luckily dental filling materials these days allow us to rebuild broken teeth so that they look as good as new without the need for cutting away healthy tooth structure.✅⁠
⁠
This is especially important when the patient is young as we want that tooth to last as long as possible. ✅⁠
⁠
So far this year I have fixed the front teeth of three young people that have had a bingle of one kind or another.🤕⁠
⁠
We will always make a point of seeing these patients ASAP and get them looking as good as new.👌

This plastic device is a snoring appliance.

It can help your partner have a better night’s sleep and arguably that’s more important 🤗

It can go with you where ever you need a better nights sleep- no need to plug it in✅

Don’t let snoring be a problem for you or your family.

I use my camera at work everyday. Dental photography is very specific and there are particular settings I use for different situations.
As you’d know I love to learn, so the other weekend I took a small course at with .

I would never have taken these photos of if I hadn’t taken that course.

There’s always something to learn, and I love learning. However the most important thing to do after any course is start implementing.

There’s a saying in dentistry that going on a course and not implementing what you’ve learnt makes it an expensive form of entertainment.

My assistant had to move this jar out of my line of vision the other day. Every time I looked up from working on a patient, this is what I saw. And by 3pm that day it was very tempting to sneak one!

Let’s face it, we all like to indulge a little at times like Easter. Chocolate eggs and hot cross buns are in seemingly endless supply.

You might think it wrong for me, a dentist, to have a picture of chocolate eggs on this post?

Or the fact we’re offering it as a prize — check out to enter.

It’s a fact of life, however, that we are real people and so are my patients. Health and oral health are about balance.

It’s ok to have a little bit of indulgence, just balance that with what you do every day.

I’m not here to judge you; I’m a person who helps you keep your mouth and teeth healthy and strong.

There are any number of appliances that can help prevent your jaw dropping back during sleep.

This is one of the smallest and is made from printed nylon which allows it to be very strong at the same time as being thin.

It’s important to select the best appliance for each patient and that’s why you need a dentist who is experienced in providing these appliances to ensure the correct selection.

With more than ten years experience with these appliances and many hours of professional learning, helping patients with their sleep is my passion.

If you don’t know where to start with getting a better night’s sleep book an appointment.

A mentor of mine described getting a splint for tooth grinding like this.

“Its like buying a helmet to wear because you’ve been banging your head against the wall for years, without finding out why you’re still banging your head.” (.jamison.spencer )

Before you get a splint or Botox for tooth grinding see if you can get to the bottom of why you are doing it.

Learning, refining, applying, learning again; its a cycle.

I’m a better dentist now than I was twenty years ago and better than I was last week. I’m not yet the best I can be.

Materials and techniques have changed and I am lucky to have years of experience upon which to draw, when applying new knowledge.

It’s up to me to help my patients understand their health. Communication between dentist and patient has been transformed. I have so many opportunities for better verbal and visual communication than I had when I started out.

It’s up to me, as a dental professional, to seek out the new, assess it, practice it and use it, for the better health of my patients.

That’s what keeps me coming back every day.
