With a rise in anxiety, we look at the way some of our Canterbury patients might be affected by it. There has been a lot in the news recently about the rise in anxiety in children, with many of them regularly missing school. There has also been a rise in the number of people on sick leave from work, in some cases, from anxiety and other mental health issues. This is a complex subject and recent factors like the Covid lockdowns may have played a part. We aren’t qualified to look too deeply into this, but what we can do is to examine the impact that anxiety can have on our oral health. We hope t ..read more

What most of our Canterbury patients probably don’t know though, is that there are different names for different types and locations of cavities of the tooth, and we will take a look at these in today’s blog. In addition to this, we will look at the possible treatments that you mi ..read more

The History Of Dental Care

From chewing sticks to modern teeth implants, we take a look at the path dental care has taken through the ages. Going to the dentist can be a daunting experience for some people and is generally not something that people look forward to. With modern dental care and local anaesthetics though, it is something that most of us manage to do and also acknowledge that it is important that we attend regularly. It is certainly easier to receive appropriate dental treatment these days but it hasn’t always been the case. As we will see in today’s blog, our Canterbury patients may not have had such an ea ..read more

If you thought that straightening teeth required wearing ugly metal braces, it’s time to think again! Today we will take a look at a dental problem that often gets ignored, simply because the solution is thought to be too problematic for many people. Given the choice of putting up with crooked teeth or wearing very visible metal dental braces for a long period of time; perhaps even a year or more, a lot of people will choose to put up with their teeth and leave them as they are. This isn’t a good idea for a number of reasons. The most obvious one is the way it makes your teeth look, but uneven ..read more

What to do and to consider in advance if you are having a dental implant placed at our Canterbury practice. If you’ve worn a partial denture for a while or have been living with a gap in your teeth, you may be wondering whether a dental implant might be the right solution for you? As our blog readers will know, dental implants offer a great way of replacing a missing tooth, largely because they replace not only the crown section of the tooth, but the root also. It is this factor that gives them the strength and stability that enables people to just carry on with their lives and not have to wor ..read more

One of many symptoms, bleeding gums could indicate that you have gum disease. It seems like a normal day; you get up and go to the bathroom to brush your teeth, because you always brush them well. This time though, when you spit into the sink after brushing, you notice that there seems to be quite a bit of blood in the saliva. Have you scratched your gums you wonder, but brushing later in the day, you notice the same thing and the alarm bells start to ring. This isn’t an uncommon problem but it is a warning sign. Even people that consider that they brush their teeth well can suffer from this u ..read more

If you haven’t had a check up in the last six months, you should book one as soon as you can. One of the articles on the BBC website this morning highlights a problem throughout the UK at the moment. Far too many people are missing check up appointments at their local dentists for a variety of reasons. Whatever the reasons, and most may be very genuine, the article goes on to highlight the missed opportunities to detect mouth cancer during its early stages through missing them. While problems like tooth decay may be problematic for the same reason, most of these can still be addressed at a mor ..read more
