Raquel has been in today, working her Root Canal magic on our patients. We saw a lovely man from Woodley today, who was referred from his dentist in Tilehurst to see Raquel for a consultation. He had a molar tooth, that was causing him pain on biting. Using our fab microscope, Raquel was able to detect a fracture down the middle of the tooth. Unfortunately, there was nothing we could do to save this tooth, but the patient now has the option of having an Implant to replace the space. We gave him some information about the treatment, and he booked in to see Nick to discuss his options.
If you have any queries regarding missing teeth, Implants, or Root Canal then please either speak with our patient co-ordinators or your dentist. They will be happy to help.

Me and Sen saw one of our favourite patients from Tilehurst today, aswell as her cute daughter (who is still very very shy when I try and talk to her). When she comes in for her 6 monthly exam, she always complains about her lower teeth cracking, falling apart or looking “flat”. Sen advised her to invest in a Soft Nightguard. This is an appliance, worn at night, to help stop patients grinding in their sleep. Sometimes we are not even aware that we are doing this! We took impressions, sent them off to the laboratory, and today we fitted the Nightguard. Admittedly, it isn’t the most romantic thing to be wearing when you jump into bed at night, but it will help save those teeth from becoming brittle and cracking in the future. If you are intersted in a Soft Nightguard, then please talk to our dentist. We want to keep those teeth intact, and keep you smiling.
