They’re only baby teeth… so does it really matter if they get decay? 👶🦷

Yes, it does.

In Ask Our Dentist | Episode 5, we explain why baby teeth are important for eating, speech and holding the right space for the adult teeth developing underneath.

Looking after milk teeth from the very beginning helps protect your child’s oral health now and supports a healthy adult smile later.

If you have questions about your child’s teeth or would like to arrange their first dental visit, contact our team at Kennett Road Dental Practice.

Ask our dentist | episode 4: Does an old silver filling need to be replaced just because it’s old?

Not necessarily.

In this episode, we explain when an amalgam filling may still be perfectly fine, what signs might mean it needs attention, and when replacing it with a tooth-coloured filling could be appropriate.

If you have an old filling that has chipped, become sensitive, feels different, or you simply want to know whether it is still healthy, book an appointment with our team and we can assess it for you.

Can you spot the filling? 👀

Swipe to see the tooth before treatment.

The decay was carefully removed and the tooth restored with a tooth-coloured composite filling, shaped and matched to blend naturally with the surrounding tooth.

The goal with a restoration like this is not only to repair and protect the tooth, but to make the result look as natural as possible.

If you are concerned about a tooth, an old filling or possible decay, contact our team at Kennett Road Dental Practice to arrange an appointment.

Ask Our Dentist, Episode 3: Fissure Sealants

What are fissure sealants, and how can they help protect children’s teeth?

In this episode, our dentist explains how this quick, painless treatment creates a protective layer over the grooves of the back teeth, helping to reduce the risk of decay in areas that can be difficult to clean.

Fissure sealants are often recommended for children and teenagers once their adult molars have come through.

If you would like to know whether fissure sealants may be suitable for your child, contact our team at Kennett Road Dental Practice.

Ask Our Dentist, Episode 2 | Bleeding Gums

Bleeding gums are something many people notice, but are not always sure how seriously to take.

In this episode, our hygienist answers some of the common questions people have about bleeding gums, including what can cause them, when to be concerned, and why it is worth getting them checked.

If your gums bleed when you brush or clean between your teeth, it is not something to ignore.

If you would like advice or would like to book an appointment, get in touch with our team at Kennett Road Dental Practice.

🚨 Ask Our Dentists | Episode 1

What actually counts as a dental emergency?

Many people aren’t sure whether a painful tooth, swelling, or a damaged tooth needs urgent attention. In this video, Denis explains the signs to look out for and when it’s important to contact a dentist as soon as possible.

If you’re ever unsure, it’s always best to get professional advice rather than wait for the problem to worsen.

Years of wear had taken their toll on these old crowns, and the patient came to us unhappy with how they were looking and feeling.

We replaced the failing restorations with two new ceramic crowns, carefully designed to blend naturally with the surrounding teeth and restore a healthier, more balanced smile.

The result is strong, natural-looking, and almost indistinguishable from her own teeth, and most importantly, the patient was absolutely delighted with the outcome.

If you are concerned about old crowns, damaged teeth, or a smile that no longer feels like you, get in touch with our team to book a consultation on 01865 761 965 .☎️

Transformation time 🌟

1. The patient presented with a badly cracked, decayed and fractured tooth that could not be saved and needed to be extracted.

2. After careful extraction, the area was given time to heal properly over the following months.

3. Once healing was complete, a thorough discussion was had with the patient to present the risks and benefits of each treatment option. After careful consideration and discussion of all options, the patient opted for a fixed bridge. Mr Duggan carefully prepared the two neighbouring teeth (which were already restored with white fillings) to support a bridge.

4. The final result: a natural-looking all ceramic bridge that restores the missing tooth and helps bring back comfort, function, aesthetics and confidence.

If you have a cracked, broken, or missing tooth, early assessment is important. Our friendly team can talk you through your options and help you choose the most suitable treatment for your smile.
