👅 A little extra care for your tongue!

You brush your teeth and clean between them, but does your tongue get any attention?
Bacteria, food particles and dead cells can collect on its surface. Gentle tongue scraping can help:
🌿 Freshen your breath
✨ Remove some of the coating on your tongue
🪥 Add another simple step to your daily oral care
❤️ Your mouth is part of your wider health.

Research has linked gum disease with heart health, giving us another reason to care for our mouths. Tongue scraping can complement your routine.
At Holistic Dental Centre, we sell copper tongue scrapers. Copper is durable, reusable and a great plastic free option. It also has natural antimicrobial properties, although your scraper still needs regular cleaning.

👅 How to use one:
Starting as far back as feels comfortable, gently draw the scraper towards the tip of your tongue a few times, rinsing between passes. Use light pressure, then clean and dry it according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Keep up your brushing, cleaning between your teeth and regular dental visits. If bad breath or an unusual tongue coating persists, let your dental team know.

Want to try one? Ask at reception about our copper tongue scrapers! 💚

🦷✨ What are those little bumps on my front teeth?!
If you’ve ever looked closely at a child’s new adult teeth and noticed little ridges along the edges, don’t panic… they’re called MAMELONS! 😁
Think of them as nature’s tiny tooth fingerprints. 🦷✨
They’re completely normal and are created as permanent teeth develop. As we grow, everyday biting and chewing usually smooths them out naturally.
👀 Fun fact: Some adults still have visible mamelons too!
So if you spot these little scallops on your smile… embrace them! 💚
Nature made your smile unique. ✨

💙 A little gift that meant so much… 🦷🥹
Some gifts are small in size but absolutely huge in meaning.
After her dental treatment, one of our lovely patients brought in this adorable little Sylvanian Families dentist and dental chair as a thank you to our dentist and nurse. 🥹🦷
She wanted to thank them for the kindness, patience and care they had shown not only to her, but to her family throughout their treatment.
It honestly touched us so much. ❤️
In dentistry, we know that coming for treatment can sometimes feel daunting, and being able to make someone feel safe, listened to and genuinely cared for is something we never take for granted.
To receive such a thoughtful little gift, with such a heartfelt meaning behind it, was incredibly special to our team.
Thank you. For trusting us, for your kind words, and for taking the time to choose something so personal. 💙
This little dentist and chair will have a special place in our practice, and a lovely reminder of why kindness matters. 🥰✨

One of our lovely patients brought in a 'show and tell' to us! It was a HUGE pony's 🦷 tooth (Nothing like we are used to or have seen before) belonging to miniature 32 year old Shetland pony called 'Hattie' 💖🐴

Hattie is at the Charity Buddy Sanctury, and will remain there for the rest of her life with her field mates enjoying the freedom of each day and being pampered and loved.

Well looked after Shetlands can live into their late 30’s but Hattie was not lucky in her early life.

The Sanctury has regular annual dentist visits for all the horses and ponies as teeth hygiene and care is critical in old age.

Hattie is naturally loosing her teeth now and is fed twice a day by the Sanctury with a balanced nutritional diet. With the few teeth Hattie has, she enjoys chewing grasses, she does this by rotating and mulching the grass in her mouth, sucking out all the vitamins and goodness and then spits out the remaining ‘chaff’ ! Very clever... 🐎👏❤️

We absolutely love reading your feedback and reviews. 💚

Hearing about your experiences means so much to the whole team at Holistic Dental Centre. Whether it is a few kind words, a story about your dental journey, or simply letting us know that you felt comfortable and cared for, we genuinely appreciate every review.

Your feedback helps us continue to learn, improve and provide the thoughtful, individual care that is so important to us.

And, of course, your reviews also help others who may be nervous about visiting the dentist, or who are searching for a more holistic approach to their dental care, feel confident about taking that first step.

Thank you for trusting us with your smiles, and for taking the time to share your experiences. We really do love reading them! 💚🦷

If you have visited us recently, we would love to hear from you.
