Dentists are a very friendly bunch, so it is surprising to learn that around half of the UK population has a dental phobia according to statistics from the Oral Health Foundation.

Even more surprising is that dental phobia beats fear of heights, snakes, and the zombie apocalypse to take number-one spot on the nation’s list of fears.

Around 12% of cases of dental phobia are acute enough to prevent dentist visits altogether, and that’s a real problem when it comes to maintaining good oral health and avoiding unnecessary aches and pains.

The team at Maidstone Dental & Implant Centre have come up with a few simple steps to help banish dental anxiety for good.

Find the Right Dentist

If your dentist strokes a long-haired white cat and laughs maniacally during treatment, it’s time to find a dentist who’s willing to use their powers for good. Ask around with family and friends to get a recommendation from someone you trust.

Know Your Enemy

Try to find out what exactly scares you. It could be that you are afraid of the drill, or the needle used to administer anaesthetic. Would it put your mind at rest to learn neither of these will be used during your upcoming dental examination? Knowing the source of fears can also help you to start a conversation about how your dentist can help make treatment more pleasant.

Easy Does it

If it’s been a while since you last had treatment, start off slowly with a dental examination or hygiene visit. This approach will help you build a rapport with your dentist.

Ditch Needless Needles

Fear of needles? In many cases, injected anaesthetics can be substituted for a topical gel. Once again, talking to your dentist to let them know your concerns is critical here.

You Were Saying?

When it comes to taking your mind off treatment, distraction is your friend. Some people like to solve puzzles, while others listen to music on headphones. Do not worry – your dentist will not think it is rude. Stress balls, fidget spinners, magazines and other distractions are all fair game.

I Want to be Sedated

Yes, it is perfectly fine to ask. Many dentists, especially those who specialise in dealing with phobic or anxious patients, now offer gentle sedation for the simplest procedures.

Open Wide, Say OM!

Meditation, mindfulness, and calming breathing exercises can work wonders in the battle against everyday anxiety, and the same is true for dental angst. A quick five-minute exercise is often all it takes to dispel dental dread.

Talk to a Professional

If dental phobia continues even after following the steps in our guide, it could be time to talk to an anxiety specialist. Counselling or cognitive behavioural therapy could arm you with the coping mechanism needed to get past your fear once and for all, as well as getting to the root cause of anxiety.

Reward Yourself

If you have followed the advice so far, you should be well on your way to repairing dental relations. There is still something you can do after treatment to make the experience more palatable. Treating yourself to a reward can help rebuild positive associations and help make each visit feel like less of a chore. And besides, do you really need an excuse to finally take that long, lazy lunch hour.

Over the years, cosmetic dentistry procedures have transformed countless lives by improving smiles, as well as dental health. From teeth whitening to dental veneers and dental implants, there are many procedures and techniques available today to help you restore your confidence in your teeth and smile.

Read on to take a closer look at some of the most popular cosmetic dentistry procedures that can improve your smile and overall dental health.

Teeth Whitening

If you are searching for an easy way to improve your smile, teeth whitening may be just the procedure for you. This is, without question, one of the fastest and most convenient ways for you to improve your smile appearance. In addition, teeth whitening is also much more affordable than other cosmetic dental procedures, making this an extremely appealing option for those who want to brighten their smile.

Dental Veneers

Some people are lucky to be born with perfect smiles. However, there is a good chance that many of those flawless grins you encounter have been cosmetically enhanced. Thin, porcelain shells, known as dental veneers, are used to cover up existing teeth and imperfections. This technique is regarded as one of the most popular cosmetic dentistry procedures among patients. Since no two smiles are the same, dental veneers can also be customized to look and feel like your natural teeth, while providing just the right fit.

Dental Crowns

Although dental crowns are mainly considered as a way to preserve a natural tooth by making it stronger while sealing it, this procedure also has an aesthetic component. Porcelain crowns are not only affordable and durable, but they also offer the most natural appearance and blend seamlessly with your own teeth. In fact, their appearance is so natural that no one besides you and your dentist will know that you’re sporting dental crowns.

Dental Implants

Cosmetic dentistry has come a long way in recent years and one of the ways to improve your smile is through dental implants. Thanks to the visibly impressive benefits, dental implants have been increasing in popularity and make a suitable choice for anyone who has one or more missing teeth. They provide the right combination of functionality and aesthetics, to ensure you have nothing but confidence in the long-term health and appearance of your smile.

Teeth Straightening Treatments

There is more to a beautiful smile than just white teeth. A beautiful, healthy, confident smile also has to do with teeth alignment. Teeth straightening procedures can be used to improve the appearance of crowded, gapped, crooked teeth or a misaligned bite. No matter what your age, it is possible to have straight teeth and a smile you can be confident in.

There are a wide range of teeth straightening procedures and your experienced dentist at Maidstone Dental & Implant Centre will be able to advise you on the best one to meet your needs.

Facial Aesthetics

Facial aesthetics can be used to give you a more youthful and confident appearance easily and painlessly. At your consultation we will discuss your concerns in order that we can provide the right solution to meet your needs. With the careful use of wrinkle relaxation injections and/or injectable fillers it is possible to enhance your natural beauty and rejuvenate your skin.

At Maidstone Dental & Implant Centre, we provide a range of cosmetic dentistry solutions. From simple teeth whitening procedures to more involved restorations, our experienced team of dentists can help you improve your smile.

Or vision is to offer high quality general and cosmetic dentistry. Here at Maidstone Dental & Implant Centre, our highly trained team aim to provide you with the highest standard of treatment each time you visit the surgery.

A visit to the dentist can involve a lot of different members of staff, from the dentist, to the dental nurse and the hygienist. Each member of the team is integral to the smooth running of the practice, ensuring you receive the high quality of care you have come to expect from Maidstone Dental & Implant Centre.

Dental Receptionist

The dental receptionist is the first person you will meet as you walk through the door and the person you will speak to when you call the surgery. They will welcome you to the surgery and may give you a medical history form to update to ensure that all your details are correct prior to any treatment. They oversee the appointment book, so are responsible for booking appointments and will also take payment when you finish a course of treatment. The receptionist strives to ensure you feel welcome and relaxed prior to seeing the dentist or other members of the dental team.

Dental nurse

The dental nurse assists the dentist in the surgery and also performs all the processes in the decontamination room. This includes preparing the surgery at the start of the day, sorting out work to go to the laboratory, sterilising instruments, mixing materials, taking notes, and ensuring that patients are put at ease. They work closely with the dentist to ensure that you have the best possible experience when you are in the dental surgery.

Hygienist

Our hygienist is passionate about oral health and will help you to achieve a clean, healthy mouth with minimal discomfort. The hygienist specialises in preventative oral health, focusing on techniques in oral hygiene to prevent gum disease. They will provide thorough scaling of your teeth to remove plaque and calculus and will advise on the best oral hygiene routine to use in between appointments to ensure that your teeth remain in the best possible condition. Finally, the hygienist will also advise on lifestyle factors that can affect your teeth and gums.

Dentist

It is normally advised that you attend for routine appointments every 6-12 months, as this allows any problems to be identified early reducing the need for extensive treatment.

At your routine appointment, the dentist will:

• Perform a thorough check of your mouth and gums
• Check for the presence of any plaque
• Perform an oral cancer screening
• Check the health of your jaw joints
• Check you bite for health and comfort
• Take x-rays when required to look at the bone levels and health of your teeth
• Discuss your lifestyle and how this can affect your oral health

A missing tooth can certainly change the appearance of your smile. Regardless of the way a tooth is lost, it can negatively impact the alignment of your teeth over time and cause a number of problems down the road if it isn’t replaced. Sometimes the value of your teeth isn’t realized until they are lost, and unfortunately, teeth do not last forever. Even the loss of a single tooth can have a negative impact on your oral health and confidence. A missing tooth or teeth can also affect your speech, ability to chew your food, the integrity of your jawbone, and cause the slow shifting of your teeth into some of the empty spaces.

Luckily, there are a number of excellent options available to replace your missing tooth or teeth to help restore your beautiful smile, including:

Removable partial dentures

Compared to a complete set of dentures, removable partial dentures are suggested for individuals with a few missing teeth. Removable partial dentures are clasped into their correct place, which ensures that the false teeth are held in the appropriate spots.

Advantages

Additional teeth can be added directly to the partial denture if any teeth are lost in the future, which can help you save time and money. Removable partial dentures are one of the cheapest options for tooth replacement. Partial dentures are easy to repair and replace if needed.

Disadvantages

Partial dentures can be uncomfortable. The dentures must be removed and cleaned on a daily basis and removed before sleeping. Partial dentures do not blend in or appear as natural as dental implants because the metal clasps are visible.

Tooth-supported bridge

A tooth-supported bridge uses your existing teeth to support the placement of a bridge. A crown is placed on the teeth, which are next to the missing ones and cemented into place. The procedure is completed over a few visits.

Advantages

A tooth-supported bridge looks and feels realistic without the need for any invasive procedures. It is also a more economical option compared to dental implants.

Disadvantages

The adjacent teeth receiving the crowns will need to be filed to the appropriate size for the crown to fit which increases chances of infection down the road. Food particles can slip underneath the bridge and become harder to clean, so if you aren’t careful with your cleaning, there is a greater risk of infection and bone loss.

Dental implants

Dental implants are now one of the most common methods of tooth replacement. Dental implants are a very reliable type of tooth replacement that both looks and feels like a real tooth.

Advantages

Dental implants provide a permanent solution if you need to replace a single tooth, or multiple teeth, in different areas. There is no involvement of your neighbouring teeth, so adjacent teeth remain intact. If taken care of, dental implants can last you for at least 10 years.

Disadvantages

The process of placing your dental implant can be somewhat lengthy. It begins with the replacement of your tooth’s root with metal screws, which will be used as an anchor for the false tooth placed on top. Once the screws have been put into place, you will need to allow the dental implant to heal for a few months, during which time, the dental implant becomes securely fused to your jawbone. Once the dental implant has healed completely, a dental crown will be placed on top and secured.

The dental implant is screwed into the jawbone, which requires invasive surgical procedures, a significant healing time, and the possibility for infection. Dental implants are one of the most expensive tooth replacement options initially but can be the most cost effective over their lifespan.

Maidstone Dental & Implant Centre’s comprehensive dental services can help to replace your missing teeth. Call today on 01622 682 029 and book a consultation.

Anybody can suffer from sensitivity, although it is most likely to affect those aged 20-40.

Toothbrush Abrasion

Toothbrush abrasion or brushing too hard can cause enamel to be worn away. This is especially likely to happen where the tooth meets the gum line. This exposes the dentine and can lead to sensitivity.

Be sure to only use a medium or soft bristled manual toothbrush or an electric toothbrush. This will make it more difficult to brush too hard. Where enamel has been worn away it may be necessary to build teeth up using white, composite fillings.

Acid Erosion

Every time we eat acidic foods or drink acidic drinks, the enamel on our teeth is softened and small particles can chip away. If you have a lot of acidic foods and drinks, the dentine may be exposed, causing sensitivity

Try to limit acid attacks on your teeth to mealtimes. Avoid sipping fizzy drinks throughout the day as this means that your teeth are constantly under attack. The dentist may also apply fluoride varnishes to your teeth to help strengthen and protect them.

Gum Disease

Gum disease affects most adults at some point. Over time a build-up of plaque or tartar can cause the gums to recede, exposing the tooth roots and causing sensitivity.

The best treatment for gum disease is a good oral hygiene routine, your dentist will remove the plaque from your teeth and advise you on the best oral hygiene aids to maintain your teeth between visits. In order to protect the roots of teeth it may be necessary to build the teeth up with a white, composite fillings. In severe cases it may be necessary to perform root canal treatment, removing the nerve from the tooth means that it can no longer be sensitive.

Cracked Tooth

A cracked tooth is one that has become broken through eating or tooth grinding. A crack can run from the biting surface of a tooth down towards the root. Extreme temperatures, especially cold, may cause discomfort and sensitivity.

Cracked teeth can be repaired with white, composite fillings or crowns. If the crack runs right through the root, it may be necessary to perform a root canal treatment to ensure that the tooth remains strong.

Tooth Grinding

Tooth grinding is often a sign of stress and can occur while you are asleep, so you be unaware that you do it. Over time tooth grinding can wear away teeth, causing them to become sensitive.

In order to protect your teeth, it may be advised that you wear a gum shield. This means that rather than damage your teeth when you grind you will be grinding against the plastic retainer. Damaged teeth will also need to be repaired or built up to prevent them being damaged further.

Teeth Whitening

Some people may find that they experience sensitivity while undergoing teeth whitening. This should be temporary and stop when you complete the treatment.

The sensitivity should disappear when you finish treatment. The dental team will also be able to advise you on ways to reduce sensitivity during treatment, by filling the whitening trays with sensitive toothpaste in between whitening treatments.

Maidstone Dental & Implant Centre’s comprehensive dental services can help to treat your sensitive teeth. Call today on 01622 682 029 and book a consultation.

More and more people feel that having a bright, white smile is one of their top oral health goals. Everyone knows that they should brush their teeth twice a day using a fluoride toothpaste, clean their teeth interdentally daily and attend for regular dental appointments to keep their teeth in the best possible condition.

But did you know there are also certain foods which you should be mindful of to help keep your pearly whites stain free?

Wine

Red wine is acidic and contains tannins, most commonly thought of as being in tea. This gives the drink the potential to cause a large amount of staining on your teeth.

Wherever possible try to intersperse glasses of water in between the wine, not only will this help to reduce any potential hangover the following day, but it will also help to reduce the level of staining of your teeth.

Tea

Like wine, ordinary tea is rich in stain promoting tannins. Many dentists say that staining from tea can be an even bigger problem than staining from coffee as it is lower in tannins.

If you cannot bear the thought of giving up your morning brew why not consider switching to an herbal, green or white tea which have all been shown to have much less staining capacity.

Fizzy Drinks

Not only do you need to be concerned with the dark coloured fizzy drinks which have the ability to stain your teeth, lighter coloured drinks are sufficiently acidic that they promote the staining of teeth by other foods and drinks that you may have at the same time. Also, fizzy drinks are often drunk cold, and this has the effect of causing teeth to contract, making them more porous and easier to stain.

Dark Sauces

Dark sauces used to flavour foods can also have a staining effect. Soy Sauce, balsamic vinegar, and tomato sauces are often used sauces that can have a detrimental effect on the brightness of your smile.

One way to avoid staining is to eat lettuce, spinach, or broccoli at the start of your meal, these vegetables form a protective film over teeth so that foods that stain cannot seep into your teeth’s pores.

Berries

Blueberries, Blackberries, Cranberries, Cherries, and other intensely coloured fruit also have the potential to cause stains. This is true no matter what form they come in whether juices, smoothies, pies, or cakes.

Stained or Discoloured Teeth

Most stains can be brightened with a course of teeth whitening. For stains resistant to teeth whitening, teeth can be brightened using veneers.

Teeth Development

Everyone has two sets of teeth, baby teeth and then permanent teeth, which develop from around 6 months with some people’s wisdom teeth not surfacing until their twenties.

Teeth tend to erupt in parallel, which means that the top molar on your left side should appear at about the same time as your top molar on the right side. Tooth development starts in the second trimester of pregnancy although teeth will not become visible for several months.

The twenty baby teeth are normally in place by the age of three and will remain until around 6 years of age when they will fall out to make way for the permanent set of teeth. Most adults will have thirty-two permanent teeth.

Breakdown of the tooth

The tooth is divided into two main parts the crown, the part visible above the gum and the root which anchors the tooth below the gum.

The tooth is made up of four kinds of tissue, each of which does a different job

• Enamel – the visible substance that covers the crown of the tooth. Harder than bone, enamel protects the tooth from decay.
• Dentine – underneath the enamel is the dentine which is calcified and looks similar to bone. Dentine is not as strong as enamel so is at risk of decay should it become exposed.
• Cementum – This tissue covers the tooth root and helps to anchor it into the bone. Cementum is a light-yellow colour and is normally covered by the gum.
• Pulp – Pulp is found in the centre of the tooth and contains the blood vessels, nerves, and other soft tissues.

Types of Teeth

There are five distinct types of teeth, each had a slightly different shape and performs a different job.

• Incisors – these are the teeth in the front and centre of your mouth, four on the top and four on the bottom. These are the teeth you use to take bites of your food.
• Canines – you have four canines, and these are your sharpest teeth. They are used to rip and tear food apart.
• Premolars – these are used for chewing and grinding your food. You have four premolars on each side of your mouth, two on the upper and two on the lower jaw.
• Molars – these are also used for chewing and grinding food. These do not replace but come in behind your baby teeth.
• Wisdom teeth – these are the last teeth to develop and typically do not erupt until age 18 to 20. Some people may never develop them.

Caring for your teeth

It is very important that you care for your teeth.

• Brush your teeth twice a day using a fluoride toothpaste
• Clean in between your teeth using inter-dental cleaning aids once a day
• Attend for regular routine dental appointments
• Eat a healthy diet

If you would like more help and advice on caring for your teeth, why not book an appointment with our hygienist who specialises in preventative dentistry and oral hygiene. Call Maidstone Dental & Implant Centre on 01622 682 029 and book a consultation today.

With the warmer weather now upon us, it is important to ensure that you stay hydrated for your oral as well as your general health. In order for your mouth to work properly, it needs saliva. Saliva helps to ensure that your mouth remains moist, helps you to break down food and helps you to swallow. Saliva also helps to fight decay and keep your teeth clean. Without enough saliva, you can develop tooth decay and other infections in the mouth.

Everyone suffers from dry mouth now and again, but if you suffer with dry mouth all or most of the time, it can be uncomfortable and can lead to serious health problems.

Saliva helps to neutralise the acid that damages your teeth and is an important part of your dental health. Saliva helps to break down food while you are chewing, allowing you to swallow more easily. Saliva is also important in fighting tooth decay. It helps to fight the bacteria that form dental plaque and cause tooth decay and gum disease.

Having less saliva can also affect the taste of food and makes it harder to eat drier foods. Sometimes it can affect your speech and it makes people more likely to have bad breath.

Treatment for dry mouth

There are several different treatments for dry mouth, and they will depend on what is causing the problem. Dry mouth can be caused as a side effect of medication, medical treatments, and some medical conditions.

• If dry mouth is caused by medicine, your doctor may be able to adjust the dosage or offer an alternative
• If your salivary glands are not working correctly, your dentist may give you medication to help improve the effectiveness of the glands
• Your dentist may also be able to suggest an artificial saliva product to keep your mouth wet.

There are also some treatments you can complete at home to help reduce the effects of dry mouth

• Keep a bottle of water or other sugar free drink handy and take regular sips
• Avoid caffeine filled drinks
• Chew sugar free gum or suck sugar free sweets to help stimulate saliva flow. Look out for those that contain xylitol as this can help to reduce the risk of developing cavities.
• Quit Smoking
• Reduce your alcohol consumption

If you would like further help and advice on the best treatment for dry mouth, do not hesitate to call Maidstone Dental & Implant Centre today on 01622 682 029 and book a consultation with a dentist.
