Even if you haven’t met with a dentist Harley Street for many years, we urge you to face your fears and get in touch with one of our compassionate, non-judgemental and understanding team members so that you can care for your health and wellbeing appropriately once more.
Oral health care is an important aspect of your general health and unless you look at your wellbeing holistically, you may find that the underlying cause of some issues may never be addressed.
We are constantly finding unexplained links between our oral health and other health factors, such as the link between gum disease and heart disease as well as one between missing teeth and mental health.
I simply can’t afford oral health care
It is a common misconception that dental care is expensive and as a result, people avoid visiting their dentist Harley Street as often as they should because they feel they cannot afford to look after their teeth, especially when there are no obvious signs to be concerned about.
As a matter of fact, with regular dental consultations, you can avoid potentially expensive dental bills that come from the complex restorative treatments that might become necessary as a result of poor oral health. Underlying issues are usually unidentifiable to an individual, not presenting with pain, discolouration or any other sign that things are not as they should be until it is too late.
By cleaning teeth professionally and ensuring that plaque and tartar do not take hold, not only can you enjoy healthier looking and whiter teeth, but you can embrace the confidence that comes with knowing your teeth are strong and healthy as well.
For those people who have not visited their dentist Harley Street for many years and fear a large bill, know that we address each situation uniquely, offering our patients finance plans that put both their oral health and their budgets first. We are understanding individuals who simply wish to ensure that you can enjoy your teeth for as long as possible, as once they are gone, there can be a lot of complications involved with your daily life.
What can I expect from a consultation
If you are new to our practice, then your initial consultation will be slightly more in-depth than subsequent ones. We take the time to get to know you, firstly with a questionnaire that you will usually fill out whilst waiting for your appointment with your oral health care professional to begin.
By asking details about your medical and dental history, your lifestyle choices, diet and other needs, we can determine some risk factors that might be significant.
In the consultation room, we will have a chat first before looking at your mouth, both inside and out to determine the health of your teeth and gums. We also provide you with a mouth cancer screening, investigate the condition of your bite and we may even need to take x-rays.
At the end of this initial appointment, we will talk you through the results and discuss what may need to be done to improve your smile.
