Why Regular Dental Check Ups Are Important

Looking after your teeth isn’t always that easy. We have busy lives, demanding jobs and may have had a bad experience in the past that puts us off going to the dentist. Despite all this, regular dental check ups are still extremely important.

If you are unfortunate enough to get toothache and don’t have a regular dentist it can be difficult to find someone that will see you at short notice. It is better to catch problems before they cause pain as the dentist is not always readily available when things go wrong. They can help with advice on caring for your teeth, improve your appearance by straightening crooked teeth, brightening up you smile and mending broken fillings.

If you are nervous of treatment, there are lots of ways that we can help you. Start by having a chat and no treatment at all. Build up your confidence slowly and get to know your dentist.

Leaving treatment until you are in pain can be expensive. It is better to have regular check ups and that way you will catch a problem when it is easier and cheaper to fix.

At Andrew House Dental Practice, we have kind and caring staff that will make you visit as stress free as possible. We also have sedation for those patients that are very anxious. All of our dentists take the time to fully explain all treatments and costs so there are no nasty surprises.

We can see you in the evening or on Saturday mornings to fit in with busy lives. We aim to look after your teeth so that you can keep them for life. Give us a call and have a chat, we look forward to speaking with you and discussing the importance of regular dental check ups in more detail.
