THIS or THAT? 🦷👇

Water flosser 💦
or
Traditional string floss 🧵

The truth? Dentists usually agree that the best option is… the one you’ll actually use consistently.

String floss can be very effective for removing plaque between teeth and just under the gumline when used correctly.

Water flossers can be a helpful alternative for patients with braces, dental implants, limited dexterity or anyone who struggles with traditional floss.

For many people, using a water flosser alongside brushing — and occasionally combining it with string floss — can support a good oral hygiene routine.

Whichever team you’re on, cleaning between your teeth every day matters ✨

"I had to get an unexpected implant, and Dr. Michel Furtado made the whole experience easy and stress‑free. I was nervous, but I didn’t even swell or have any pain during. After the procedure the pain was very minimal. He was excellent."

Thank you for your kind words ⭐

I'm so pleased to hear that I helped make your implant treatment experience feel comfortable and reassuring.

I understand that needing unexpected dental treatment can feel daunting, so feedback like this means a great deal.

Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience.

One thing that surprises patients about dental implants? 👀

Once treatment is complete, many people say they stop thinking about the implant altogether.

Dental implants are designed to feel secure and function similarly to natural teeth, which means patients can usually eat, speak and smile comfortably once healing is complete.

They’re also fixed in place — so unlike removable dentures, they don’t need to be taken out at night.

If you’re missing a tooth, dental implants may be one option worth exploring as part of a long-term treatment plan.

Cocktails, iced coffees, fizzy drinks and fruit juices can all contribute to staining and increased acid exposure — especially when sipped slowly throughout the day.

One simple tip? Use a straw where you can.

Drinking through a straw may help reduce direct contact between acidic or strongly coloured drinks and your teeth, which can help minimise staining and support enamel health over time.

A few other summer smile tips from Dr Michel Furtado:
• Rinse with water after acidic drinks
• Avoid grazing on sugary drinks all day
• Don’t brush immediately after acidic drinks — wait around 30 minutes
• Keep up regular hygiene appointments

Small habits can make a noticeable difference to your oral health and smile ✨

Not whether your teeth are perfectly straight.
Not whether they’re Hollywood white.

But the little signs that can tell us a lot about your oral health:

• Bleeding or inflamed gums
• Plaque build-up around the gumline
• Signs of grinding or clenching
• Worn enamel
• Cracks or chips in teeth
• Dry mouth
• Staining linked to diet, smoking or coffee

The good news? Most dental problems are far easier to manage when spotted early.

Regular check-ups and hygiene visits help keep small issues from becoming bigger ones — and help maintain a healthy smile long term ✨

There’s something timeless about a healthy-looking, white smile against sun-kissed skin — simple, clean, and effortlessly fresh.

Professional teeth whitening is designed to help reduce the appearance of staining and discolouration, leaving teeth looking brighter while still natural.

Whether it’s for holidays, weddings or just feeling more confident in photos, whitening can be tailored to your goals with in-clinic or at-home options available after consultation.

Because summer looks better when you’re smiling 😎

Most people think dentistry is all drills and check-ups. Truth is, a lot of my days start right here - reviewing cases, planning treatments, answering patient questions, and making sure every detail is right before anyone even sits in the chair.

Jaw tension is often dismissed — until it starts affecting your day.

A tight jaw in the morning. Headaches that keep coming back. Teeth that feel sensitive for no clear reason.

These can all be signs of clenching or grinding — often happening while you sleep.

I regularly assess patients presenting with symptoms linked to jaw tension and bite stress, including:

🦷 Jaw soreness or fatigue
🦷 Morning headaches
🦷 Tooth wear or sensitivity
🦷 Clicking or discomfort in the jaw joint

A clinical assessment helps identify the underlying cause and determine appropriate management, which may include protective night guards and tailored dental advice.

📅 If these symptoms sound familiar, it’s worth getting checked sooner rather than later.

What’s less commonly discussed is what they actually change day-to-day.

For many patients, it’s not just about filling a gap — it’s about getting back things they’ve quietly adjusted their life around:

🦷 Eating without thinking twice about certain foods
🦷 Speaking or laughing without hesitation
🦷 Avoiding the constant awareness of a missing tooth
🦷 Feeling like their bite is stable again

Implants are designed to function like natural teeth once integrated, which means they don’t just restore appearance — they restore normality.

My treatment planning for implants always starts with a detailed assessment, because suitability, bone support, and long-term oral health all matter as much as the final result.

📅 If you’ve been “managing” a missing tooth rather than dealing with it, it may be worth a proper conversation about your options.
