What is it about this time of year that makes us want everything to look shiny and new? Forget about sorting through old stuff, and getting out the paintbrushes. Instead, say “Yes!” to some spring clean teeth!
Why don’t my teeth look like they used to?
Teeth age, just like the rest of us! It’s a sad fact that with the years, our teeth begin to look older. Here’s why:
colour changes – usually due to pigmentation in food and drink, the effect of tobacco, or damage
enamel wears thin – enamel reflects light so teeth look shinier and brighter when it’s pristine
teeth move – the lower front teeth especially may shift position through wear and bone loss
There are solutions!
How can I get my teeth looking fresher?
Step1: Check your home oral hygiene routine is up to scratch. Set a timer for two minutes when you clean your teeth at least twice a day. Be sure to use floss and interdental brushes, and have a go with a tongue scraper. It’s worth investing in an electric toothbrush too.
Step 2: Book a hygiene appointment with your nearest SpaDental for a good clean and polish. We offer “direct access”which means you don’t have to have an appointment with the dentist first, you can book directly with your hygienist or therapist. This is great! It saves the cost of an extra appointment. Also it means that you can have regular clean-ups easily as part of a preventive oral hygiene routine. Spring clean teeth made easy! If your therapist or hygienist does spot a possible problem that the dentist should check, then of course s/he will let you know.
Step 3:Talk with your dentist about tooth whitening. The only safe way to whiten teeth, and the most effective, is with the supervision of your dentist. You don’t want to harm your teeth or mouth. Your dentist can make up custom-fitted trays that will hold the whitening fluid evenly against the surfaces of your teeth while preventing leakage onto the gums and soft tissue. There’s a noticeable result after just three weeks.
Step 4: Learn more about our finance plans. If you think you’d benefit from cosmetic dental treatments and you’re thinking about veneers, Invisalign or implants, then there are ways to spread the cost. The NHS does not pay for cosmetic work to be done, so private dentistry is the solution. Great looking teeth are affordable with cost-spreading options.
Say “Yes” to spring clean teeth!
All you need to do is contact your nearest SpaDental and our team will help you to access the care you need!
