CPR Training in Progress Today 🩺

Our team is taking part in CPR training today to keep our skills up to date and ensure we’re prepared when it matters most.

Please note that the practice is closed until 2pm today. Thank you for your understanding!

Continually developing our skills and knowledge is an important part of providing the best possible care for our patients.

Stuart recently completed another few days of training with The Campbell Academy as part of his ongoing year-long implant course, focusing this time on sinus grafting and ridge preservation.

With teaching from Colin Campbell, Alex Jones and Beatriz Sanchez, it was another valuable opportunity to learn from leading clinicians and further develop his expertise in implant dentistry.

This time, Stuart was able to attend the Belfast sessions at Marlborough Clinic Belfast hosted by David and Brenda Nelson, instead of travelling over to Nottingham, which was a welcome change!

A big thank you to everyone involved for another brilliant few days of teaching and learning.

Stuart continues to build on his implant training, bringing new knowledge and techniques back to Dentistry at Markethill.

Electric or Manual Toothbrush? 🪥

Which one is better? The answer might surprise you — both can be great for your teeth when used properly!

⚡ Electric Toothbrush
• Helps remove plaque effectively
• Built-in timers encourage brushing for 2 minutes
• Pressure sensors can help prevent brushing too hard
• Great for people who find manual brushing difficult

🪥 Manual Toothbrush
• Simple, affordable and easy to travel with
• No batteries or charging needed
• Gives you complete control over your brushing technique
• Can be just as effective when used correctly

The most important thing? Brush twice a day for two minutes, use fluoride toothpaste and don’t forget to replace your toothbrush or brush head every 3 months (or sooner if the bristles are worn). Not sure which is right for you? Ask our dental team at your next appointment!
