Can’t remember when your last dental visit was?! That can only mean one thing…you are OVERDUE for your Preventative Dental Care appointment! ⏰
Your mouth is the gateway to your total health. Just like a car, it needs regular servicing to ensure it is healthy and performs at its best and doesn’t break down when it is inconvenient!
To ensure optimal Oral health, it is recommended that you have 2 Preventative Dental Care appointments per year — once every 6 months.
Most of our patients find that regular scheduled appointments of preventative care and cleaning can help keep dental problems and emergencies away, as well as improve your total health.
We know that schedules can get rather BUSY, we suggest re-booking your next preventive care appointment IMMEDIATELY after each 6 monthly visit.
This secures your preferred appointment date/time, ensures you are top of your oral health & avoids delays which can lead to potential dental issues!
So that you can remain healthy and keep that smile beautiful,

What is FLUORIDE & how is it’s functions beneficial?!
Fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral which assists in preventing cavities.
〰️
It works by strengthening the outer layer of the tooth (enamel).
This makes the tooth surface more resilient to decay causing acids! 💪🏽🦷🪥
Studies show that fluoride in community water systems prevents at least 25 percent of tooth decay in children and adults, even with widespread public access to fluoride from other sources such as fluoride toothpaste.
Dental Tip of the day: Ensure you are brushing twice daily using a fluoridated toothpaste!

🦷 TEETH DECAY 🦷
〰️ Defined as damage to the tooth, which occurs when bacteria in your mouth forms acid that attacks the tooth’s surface or enamel — aka: a Cavity!
So what causes this bacteria?!!
〰️ A diet high in sugar is the leading cause of cavities. Repeated cycles of sugary foods/drinks cause ‘acid’ to form, which results in the loss of mineral from the tooth’s enamel. Over time, leading to a cavity area.
— SYMPTOMS:
〰️ Toothache 🦷
〰️ Temperature sensitivity (upon hot/cold) 🔥❄️
〰️ Tooth discolouration or brown/ black stains on the tooth surface
〰️ Pain upon biting or your pressure
〰️ Swelling
— POSSIBLE TREATMENTS:
- Dental Fillings
- Dental Crowns & Bridges
- Dental Implants or Dentures (if the tooth needs to be removed)
- Dental Root Canal Therapy (if the decay is bad but the tooth can be saved)
Your dental tip of the day: Don’t wait for these symptoms to occur prior to seeing a dentist. Ensure you attend to your preventative dental visits to catch any cavities before they start! 👍🏼😬
Contact us now to ensure that your teeth decay doesn’t get worse and that it is treated early!
