🛹✨ From Skateboard Mishap to Confident Smile! ✨🦷

This young patient came to see us after a skateboarding accident left them with a broken front tooth.

Dr Yusuf Nassar and Kirbie worked together to restore the tooth, carefully matching it to the surrounding teeth to create a natural-looking result. The goal was to get our patient smiling confidently again – and we’re thrilled with the outcome!

A huge well done to our patient, who was an absolute star throughout treatment.

🦷 another little sneak peak at what Dr Yusuf Nassar has been up to recently…

He recently helped a patient regain confidence in her smile after concerns about her front teeth fillings which has been placed a long time ago.

Dr Yusuf Nassar identified that her previous anterior composite fillings were become defective - leading to noticeable staining. After a careful assessment, he replaced them with beautifully crafted new composite restorations designed to look natural, fresh and long lasting.

The result? A brighter, more even smile that the patient feels proud to show off again 😊

If you’re unhappy with the appearance of your front teeth or have older fillings that don’t look their best anymore, we’re here to help. Contact us on 01637 852252 to enquire about booking an appointment. 😁

A patient recently visited us feeling self-conscious about a tooth that had darkened following a root canal treatment carried out a few years ago. It had been affecting their confidence to smile.

We’re so happy to share that Dr Yusuf Nassar and the team were able to restore the tooth and bring their smile back to life — with a fantastic result. 😄
