Dr. Ali Altaf Dentist { "@context": "https://schema. org", "@type": "Person", "name": "Dr. Ali Altaf", "description": "\n\n\n\nMeet Dr. Ali Altaf\n\n\n\nGDC-85605\n\n\n\nBDentSc 2012, BA Sc, MJDF\n\n\n\n\n\n Single and Multiple Implants\n Full Arch Implants\n Invisalign\n Composite Bonding\n Smile Makeovers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBook Consultation\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Ali Altaf is one of our most accomplished Synergy Dentists. When he’s not busy being a superstar appearing on the BBC or on ITV news, you’ll find him hard at work at our Preston Clinic where he is our Head Dentist. \n\n\n\nAli was born in Saudi Arabia and moved to the UK in 2013 after graduating. He studied his BDS at Trinity College Dublin – which is why you might hear a slight Irish accent when you speak to him! His gentle voice and soft tone help to soothe any nervous patients. \n\n\n\nSince finishing university, Dr. Ali hasn’t stopped learning. He’s earned post-graduate diplomas in various areas and his MSc in Implantology. He has over 10 years of experience in aesthetic dentistry and full-mouth rehabilitation, and is so excellent that he has become one of our SynTrain Academy lecturers, training the next generation of brilliant dentists. \n\n\n\nThere’s almost nothing that Ali doesn’t know about dentistry, so no matter what your concern is, Dr. Altaf can help. He’s even won Dentist of the Year and Practice of the Year at the Lancashire Health Hero Awards, as well as winning our Best Dentist at Synergy and our best Developed Dentist at Synergy titles! \n\n\n\nAli’s dedication to dentistry doesn’t stop at the clinic doors. He is a trustee with the Refugee Crisis Foundation, a volunteer based non-profit organisation dedicated to easing the suffering of refugees globally. Their objectives are not only to provide basic needs, but also education and medical aid. \n\n\n\nThey began in 2015, providing emergency dental care from a mobile dental clinic in the “Jungle” refugee camp in Callis. Since then, their projects have expanded to include the Rohingya Appeal, providing aid for Rohingya Muslims in Bangladesh who have been forced to flee their homes due to violence and persecution. \n\n\n\nThe RCF Healthy Smiles Initiative aims to take a proactive approach to dentistry, focusing on education. Many dental problems found in refugee camps are treatable, but develop into severe conditions due to the lack of care available. Rather than waiting for someone’s oral health to deteriorate, Healthy Smiles Initiative aims to prevent these problems before it reaches the need for critical intervention. \n\n\n\nAs a member of the board of trustees, Dr. Altaf has been a key member of developing these initiatives and raising awareness of them here in the UK through his appearances on national news. You can learn more about Ali’s work and the RCF here\n\n\n\nWhen he’s not at work, teaching, or supporting the RCF, you can find Ali playing badminton or gaming on his PC. Ali is a certified tech-geek, and dreams of living in the most technologically advanced house possible – though having an automated house does sound great... imagine having your coffee make itself as soon as you wake up! \n\n\n\nYou can find Ali’s work on Instagram @dr. alialtaf\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore and after\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLook Closer\n\n\n\n\n\nDentist Bio\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n", "jobTitle": "Dentist", "homeLocation": { "@type": "Place", "address": { "streetAddress": "Preston" } } } Dr. Imran Saeed Dentist { "@context": "https://schema. org", "@type": "Person", "name": "Dr. Imran Saeed", "description": "\n\n\n\nMeet Dr. Imran Saeed\n\n\n\nGDC-\n\n\n\nBDS, PGDip, PGCert (Sedation)\n\n\n\n\n\n Invisalign\n Composite Bonding\n Smile Makeovers\n Dental Implants\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBook Consultation\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Imran Saeed BDS, PGDip, PGCert (Sedation)\n\n\n\nImplantologist & Cosmetic Dentist\n\n\n\nDr. Imran Saeed is a highly skilled implantologist dedicated to restoring smiles and transforming lives through cutting-edge dental implantology.

He was born in Dubai and moved to the UK to study at the Eastman Dental Institute in London where he earned not one, but two master’s level degrees! He holds an MSc in Oral Maxillofacial Surgery and an MSc in Implantology. He has over 7 years of experience in this field, and is also a Tier 2 Specialist led Oral Surgery Practitioner. He has also undertaken training in IV Sedation – a practice that helps anxious patients by inducing a relaxed state and reducing pain whist remaining conscious. He does not practice general dentistry, and he wanted to focus all his attention on developing his oral surgery skills – as such, he exclusively practices oral surgery and is one of the best in the business. \n\n\n\nDr Wasif is especially adept at all things involving implant dentistry and is capable of handling complex cases requiring hard and soft tissue augmentation, sinus grafting, and immediate loading. He is passionate about transforming lives through dental implants, using their capacity to restore a more natural form and function to patient smiles. \n\n\n\nHe defines himself as a peripatetic oral surgeon – meaning he offers his services at other practices so as many patients as possible can benefit from his wealth of experience. \n\n\n\nOutside of work, Wasif enjoys spending time in nature taking his children out for walks, keeping active at the gym, or relaxing with a good book. He also likes playing cricket, badminton, and tennis. \n\n\n\nHe is a passionate advocate for improving the lives of those affected by cancer and is a member of multiple cancer charities. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore and after\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLook Closer\n\n\n\n\n\nDentist Bio\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n", "jobTitle": "Dentist", "homeLocation": { "@type": "Place", "address": { "streetAddress": "Bolton" } } } Dr. Zuber Bagasi Dentist { "@context": "https://schema. org", "@type": "Person", "name": "Dr. Zuber Bagasi", "description": "\n\n\n\nMeet Dr. Zuber Bagasi\n\n\n\nGDC-85605\n\n\n\nBDS Bgam 2005, MJDF, PG Cert Implantology, PG Cert Restorative, PG Cert Facilitated Learning in Healthcare Practice\n\n\n\n\n\n Single and Multiple Implants\n Full Arch Implants\n IV Sedation\n Invisalign\n Composite Bonding\n Smile Makeovers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBook Consultation\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Zuber Bagasi - Zubz to friends, patients and colleagues (though you might know him as Dr Ironman on TikTok) is the man who started it all when he first established Synergy with the vision of giving every patient the same level of expert care across every one of our practices. That’s why he is insistent that Synergy only uses market-leading materials from brands like Straumann and Invisalign, and all of our clinics are fitted with cutting-edge technology. \n\n\n\nOur first clinic opened its doors in 2007 on Central Drive in Blackpool, where Zuber still practises dentistry to this day - when he’s not running the business from our Bolton headquarters. He feels a personal connection to his Blackpool patients, as many of his patients are families he has treated over the course of generations, watching patients who he treated as children grow up and now bring in their own young children. Seeing the difference he has made on a family and their oral health is one of the best parts of his job. \n\n\n\nWith a special interest in implantology, Zuber is the person to see if you’re looking for single implants or full arch same day implants, having placed 1000s of implants himself using our digital dentistry techniques to precisely plan each patient’s implant placement, minimising pain and surgery time. His years of experience and skill have led to him being the go-to person for referring complex cases, both from other dentists and patient-self referral. He is also experienced in handling nervous patients. Whilst his relaxed personality and sense of humour is enough to put people at ease, he is also trained in conscious sedation to help patients with a fear of the dentist. Talented at restorative work and cosmetic smile makeovers, Zuber can make the smile of your dreams a reality. \n\n\n\nBoltonian to the core, Zuber spends his free time finding ways to give back to the local community through charity work, supporting local food banks and educating about oral health. Being a parent himself, Zuber is motivated towards causes that divert youths away from crime and provide young people with alternative activities to being out on the streets. He is also a strong advocate for mental health awareness and the benefits of exercise for mental wellbeing. As someone who leads by example, Zuber enjoys triathlon to relieve stress. See if you can catch him running by at the next Bolton Ironman! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore and after\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLook Closer\n\n\n\n\n\nDentist Bio\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n", "jobTitle": "Dentist", "homeLocation": { "@type": "Place", "address": { "streetAddress": "Blackpool" } } } Directions We’re easily reached via public transport, with bus routes near the clinic and bus stops.

Patient Access Scheme At Synergy, we understand that not everybody may be able to afford access to dental care, especially for treatments such as Same-Day Implants which are not covered by the NHS. That’s why we’ve created our Synergy Dental Patient Access Scheme, to offer grants with the aim of supporting patients who cannot normally afford the cost of Same-Day Implant treatment. If you are eligible, you could receive up to £5000 towards your Same-Day Implant treatment cost. Each grant application will be fairly reviewed by our Clinical Assessment Team. If successful, in order to give equal opportunities to access our grants, each grant is valid for 30 days from the date your application is determined, and treatment must be started within 90 days of your acceptance of the grant. Fill out the form below to get started on your grant application: Terms and Conditions: Treatment grant is not redeemable for any cash value Treatment grant can only be redeemed against Same-Day Implants Treatment grants can only be redeemed at certain clinics within the Synergy Dental Group, at participating branches only, and you may not be treated at your preferred clinic. Grants are valid for a limited time only. Failure to claim your grant within the timeframe will result in your grant being allocated to someone else in need. Once your grant has been claimed, you will only have 90 days to book your first appointment and begin your treatment - this includes paying an initial deposit. Failure to do so will result in your grant being allocated to someone else in need. Grant submissions are only open for a limited time period throughout the year. Synergy Dental Group withholds the right to end, shorten, or withdraw the grant submission period at any time. Synergy Dental Group withholds the right to withdraw grant funding at any time, but will honour the agreed prices of any treatments already commenced. Grant funding availability is as follows: Full upper and lower Same Day Implants - up to £5000 grant. Normal treatment cost: £20,000. Treatment cost with full grant: £15,000 The grant amount awarded may vary from patient to patient depending on their personal circumstance. For instance, some patients may be awarded a £4000 treatment grant whilst other patients may be awarded the full £5,000 treatment grant. Single Arch Same Day Implants - £3500 grant. Normal Treatment cost: £13,500 Treatment cost with grant: £10,000 The grant amount awarded may vary from patient to patient depending on their personal circumstance. For instance, some patients may be awarded a £2,500 treatment grant whilst other patients may be awarded the full £3,500 treatment grant.

Vision & Values Our first clinic opened its doors in Blackpool in 2007, when our Lead Implant Surgeon and CEO Dr. Zuber Bagasi won the NHS contract for the area as a newly qualified dental graduate. Our ambition was simple: offer high quality dental care at an affordable price, ensuring our services can reach as many patients as possible. Book Consultation OUR VALUES It has been almost 20 years since our first practice opened. We now run 17 practices across the UK and employ a team of over 300 staff, from dental professionals based in our practices, to Governance Managers and Trainers who work hard behind the scenes in our local headquarters to keep everything running smoothly. Our post-graduate training school, SynTrain International Academy, attracts delegates and teachers from across the globe to learn and teach with us. We run nearly 20 different courses, available to learn online and in person, and have partnerships with internationally recognised universities as well as some of the top names in dentistry. As a company, we’ve experienced unprecedented growth. The Synergy name has evolved from just one clinic in Blackpool, to several clinics spread across the North West and the Midlands, but our core principals have always remained the same. As a social enterprise, we believe in putting people and planet over profit. We know our patients by their names, we support other local businesses, and we care about what’s happening in our community. No matter where our story takes us, we will always put our patients first, prioritising your care. OUR PROMISES TO YOU Meet Our CEO We spent a long time thinking of ways to describe our CEO, Dr. Zuber Bagasi. The story of a self-made entrepreneur from Bolton who went from one practice in Blackpool, one of the most dentally deprived areas in the UK, to heading up 17 practices across the North-West and the Midlands... Who better to tell you his story than the very man himself?

At Synergy, we offer Prestige whitening, a dentist approved formula designed to let you whiten your teeth overnight at home. Unlike over the counter whitening kits, Prestige whitening trays are custom made to fit your mouth ensuring there are no air bubbles in the gel that can make your smile look patchy. Prestige also comes with a higher concentration of peroxide than what is available in over the counter products. Over the counter whitening can legally only have up to 0. 1% hydrogen peroxide concentration in the UK, meaning there’s not enough bleach to create a lasting change to your teeth – whereas Prestige can contain higher potency ingredients as the treatment is under the supervision of a dentist.

Scale treatments to remove plaque and tartar are recommended every 6 months minimum to remove bacteria that your toothbrush can’t reach. If you feel you could benefit from a deeper clean, our professional clean includes a course of stain removal to help your teeth shine. Alternately, our Oxyjet clean includes airflow treatment for an extremely deep clean. If you’re looking to give your teeth a thorough cleaning, our Prestige clean is the deepest cleaning option we offer, which includes all of our cleaning packages in one. Scale and Cleaning Pricing Table Treatment Price Details Scale £50 Details Implant Clean £50 Details Professional Clean £80 Details Oxyjet Clean £100 Details Prestige Clean £175 Details Gum Disease Treatment Gum disease (sometimes called periodontitis) is a common but serious condition that can lead to tooth loss if left untreated. Signs of gum disease include bad breath, sore or red gums, and bleeding when you brush your teeth. If you or your dentist notice signs of gum disease, it’s important to book in for a proper assessment of your gums and arrange a proper course of treatment. Our gum disease treatments are priced per segment (called a sextant) of your mouth. Gum Disease Pricing Table Treatment Price Details Periodontal Assessment £30 Details OPG (Full mouth X-ray) £50 Details Periodontal Cleaning (per sextant) £80 Details Periodontal Maintenance £100 Details DENTAL FILLINGS Restoring Decayed Teeth Fillings are a routine dental treatment essential to repairing decayed teeth and reducing further damage. Fillings are commonly made from silver amalgam, used for back teeth due to their strength, or from tooth coloured composite material, used for front teeth for a more natural appearance. As an alternative to fillings, we also provide inlays. These are designed in our laboratory to fit the area of decay and are more durable than a traditional filling and more aesthetically pleasing as they have been designed to fit your tooth shape. They can be made from a variety of material qualities. If you’re looking to prevent decay, a fissure sealant will smooth the biting surfaces of your teeth where bacteria usually builds up.

After graduating he then went on to earn a Professional Diploma in Aesthetic Restorative Dentistry before he came to join us at Synergy. \n\n\n\nAs if being a super-smart dentist wasn’t enough, Adam also speaks four languages fluently: English, Gujarati, Arabic, and Urdu. His uncanny ability to pick up a language makes it easier for Dr. Patel to communicate with a wide range of patients from multiple backgrounds. \n\n\n\nOutside of work, Adam likes to keep fit and healthy through sports. Not only does he enjoy football and tennis, but he also practices boxing and kickboxing. Picture seeing your dentist show up in the boxing ring on TV one day! On weekends, Adam likes to escape the busy modern world and delve into the wilderness on long treks and survivalist desert camping trips. \n\n\n\n No matter what he’s doing, Adam chases pursuits that challenge his mind as well as his body. He’s always looking for new ways to improve his skills to give the best outcome for his patients. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore and after\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLook Closer\n\n\n\n\n\nDentist Bio\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n", "jobTitle": "Dentist", "homeLocation": { "@type": "Place", "address": { "streetAddress": "Adlington" } } } Dr. Asma Valli Dentist { "@context": "https://schema. org", "@type": "Person", "name": "Dr. Asma Valli", "description": "\n\n\n\nMeet Dr. Asma Valli\n\n\n\nGDC-85605\n\n\n\nBChD 2013\n\n\n\n\n\n Composite Bonding\n Invisalign\n Smile Makeovers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBook Consultation\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr Asma Valli has held her BDS since 2013 and has over a decade of experience – almost all of it right here at Synergy! \n\n\n\nShe is an expert at handling patients – especially those of us who are afraid of the dentist – and gives every patient plenty of time, care, and patience. Her friendly, positive outlook makes you feel as if you’ve known Asma for years, and her confidence and self-assuredness gives you the knowledge that you’re in safe hands whenever you’re in her chair. \n\n\n\nAsma can help patients with a range of dental issues, but she especially enjoys restorative work and smile makeovers. She loves to make her patients feel confident in their appearance once more – and she even practices facial aesthetic treatments. \n\n\n\nAsma herself is very health focused. She enjoys running and lifting weights, and believes that feeling good is the key to looking good. Part of feeling good in oneself is doing good for others, and Asma is a strong believer in donating to charity regularly. \n\n\n\nA mother of two, when she’s not working, Asma is very family oriented. Weekends are often spent out making memories as a family – when they’re not all watching football together! When she retires, she would like to spend as much time as possible making even more family memories, relaxing and travelling together. Her favourite destination she’s visited so far has been South Africa. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore and after\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLook Closer\n\n\n\n\n\nDentist Bio\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n", "jobTitle": "Dentist", "homeLocation": { "@type": "Place", "address": { "streetAddress": "Adlington" } } } Bilal Hayat Dentist { "@context": "https://schema. org", "@type": "Person", "name": "Bilal Hayat", "description": "\n\n\n\nMeet Dr. Bilal Hayat\n\n\n\nGDC-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Invisalign\n Composite Bonding\n Smile Makeovers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBook Consultation\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore and after\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLook Closer\n\n\n\n\n\nDentist Bio\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n", "jobTitle": "Dentist", "homeLocation": { "@type": "Place", "address": { "streetAddress": "Chorley" } } } Shifa Kari Dentist { "@context": "https://schema. org", "@type": "Person", "name": "Shifa Kari", "description": "\n\n\n\nMeet Dr. Shifa Kari\n\n\n\nGDC-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Invisalign\n Composite Bonding\n Smile Makeovers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBook Consultation\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore and after\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLook Closer\n\n\n\n\n\nDentist Bio\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n", "jobTitle": "Dentist", "homeLocation": { "@type": "Place", "address": { "streetAddress": "Chorley" } } } Humnah Javid Dentist { "@context": "https://schema. org", "@type": "Person", "name": "Humnah Javid", "description": "\n\n\n\nMeet Dr. Humnah Javid\n\n\n\nGDC-\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Invisalign\n Composite Bonding\n Smile Makeovers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBook Consultation\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore and after\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLook Closer\n\n\n\n\n\nDentist Bio\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n", "jobTitle": "Dentist", "homeLocation": { "@type": "Place", "address": { "streetAddress": "Adlington" } } } DENTIST PRICES Private Banding Pricing Tables Our pricing is some of the most competitive in the dental industry because we want to provide high-quality dentistry at an affordable price.

Even just booking the appointment can be terrifying for some people, so when patients work up the bravery to come into the practice, Anshul takes the opportunity to build up a rapport and encourage patient trust to ensure future visits won’t be so scary. \n\n\n\nOutside of dentistry, Anshul believes in the power of community and caring for others. He has been part of multiple projects within his local area including donating food to those who struggle to feed their families. \n\n\n\nAnshul takes a comprehensive approach to health, prioritising not just oral hygiene, but also his physical fitness. He likes to visit the gym after work and keep his cardio up with running and boxing. \n\n\n\nIn his down-time, he dedicates every spare moment to his family. He loves spending time with his wife and daughter and making regular trips to his wider family in India. \n\n\n\nWhen we asked Anshul what he’d like to do when he retires, he responded that he wouldn’t want to retire fully, and would always want to keep a hand in dentistry - that’s how much he loves his job! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore and after\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLook Closer\n\n\n\n\n\nDentist Bio\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n", "jobTitle": "Dentist", "homeLocation": { "@type": "Place", "address": { "streetAddress": "Macclesfield" } } } Dr. Anaush Awan Dentist { "@context": "https://schema. org", "@type": "Person", "name": "Dr. Anaush Awan", "description": "\n\n\n\nMeet Dr. Anaush Awan\n\n\n\nGDC-297133\n\n\n\nBChD 2021\n\n\n\n\n\n Invisalign\n Composite Bonding\n Smile Makeovers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBook Consultation\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr Anaush Awan is one of our expert Synergy dentists.

He holds a Bachelor of Dental Surgery (BDS) degree from the University of Manchester and is skilled in general dentistry. He is also proficient in restorative treatments, including complex rehabilitation cases, prosthetic treatments, conventional and rotary endodontics, and both simple and complex periodontal cases. He has a keen interest in oral surgery, having gained insights into extraction techniques, management of impacted wisdom teeth, and treating patients with complex medical histories. \n\n\n\nHaving begun his career as a Foundation Dentist, Fahhr quickly developed his skills and embraced the challenges of general practice. His journey led him to secondary hospital care, where he refined his clinical skills and deepened his understanding of patient care, undertaking complex cases as a Dental Core Trainee. \n\n\n\nReturning to general practice as an Associate, Fahhr was able to bring the wealth of his experience from a hospital setting and his meticulous attention to detail for the benefit of his patients. His desire to continually improve led him to pursue further training in areas such as smile makeovers and root canal treatments, further enhancing his ability to provide personalised care to his patients. \n\n\n\nMore recently, Fahhr has embarked on additional training in implantology, sedation, and minor oral surgery this year. By expanding his skill set, Fahhr aims to offer his patients a comprehensive range of treatment options and ensure they receive the highest quality of care possible. \n\n\n\nIn addition to his clinical work, Dr. Hussain is passionate about education and community outreach. He has over 10 years of experience tutoring GCSE and A-Level students and has volunteered with organisations such as British IMA and One2One Cambodia, providing dental treatments and education to underserved communities. \n\n\n\nBeyond dentistry, Fahhr enjoys participating in sports such as football, badminton, and squash, as well as travelling and taking on new challenges like the Fan Dance trek and parachuting. He also speaks fluent Urdu. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore and after\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLook Closer\n\n\n\n\n\nDentist Bio\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n", "jobTitle": "Dentist", "homeLocation": { "@type": "Place", "address": { "streetAddress": "Leyland" } } } Dr. Zohaib Zaman Dentist { "@context": "https://schema. org", "@type": "Person", "name": "Dr. Zohaib Zaman", "description": "\n\n\n\nMeet Dr. Zohaib Zaman\n\n\n\nGDC-278288\n\n\n\nBDS 2018\n\n\n\n\n\n Invisalign\n Composite Bonding\n Cosmetic Dentistry\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBook Consultation\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Zohaib Zaman holds a BDS from the University of Sheffield and has over 5 years of experience in general dentistry.

His focus is always on providing the highest quality care through attention to detail. \n\n\n\nZohaib recognises that dental visits can be really frightening for some patients, and ensures that every patient has the option to visit his surgery room without fear. He focuses on creating a relaxed, casual environment for patients and ensures he has extra time set aside to discuss any fears and find ways to work around them. If you’re feeling nervous, Zohaib wants to help you identify the cause so you can work through it together – helping you to conquer your fears so they are no longer a barrier to future dental treatments. \n\n\n\nOutside of dentistry, Zohaib loves to travel and taste different cuisines from every corner of the globe. He has also travelled in a professional capacity, providing voluntary dental aid in South East Asia to those who are unable to access dental care. \n\n\n\nWhilst Zohaib loves dentistry, he also misses playing football at a semi-pro level and wishes he could’ve taken it further. We all wish we were pro footballers, don’t we? \n\n\n\nZohaib is a big believer in the support of family, which is why he always puts his loved ones first.

This initial step involves a thorough examination of the patient's oral cavity to assess overall dental health. After a thorough examination, if any infections, inflammations, or specific conditions are detected, the dentist may prescribe medications. Used to fill cavities or damaged teeth temporarily, this treatment provides relief and protection until a more permanent solution can be implemented. This procedure involves reattaching a dislodged crown or bridge. It's crucial for restoring the function and aesthetics of the teeth. Treatment for an infected socket, often occurring after a tooth extraction, includes cleaning the area and possibly prescribing antibiotics or pain medication. An abscess is a pocket of pus that can form in different parts of the tooth due to infection. Draining the abscess is a critical step to remove the infection and alleviate pain. This involves managing the discomfort associated with wisdom teeth, which can include clean, and pain relief medication. This does not include wisdom teeth extractions. Over time, dentures may require adjustments for a proper fit due to changes in the jaw and gums. The removal of a tooth is necessary when it is extensively damaged or decayed and beyond repair.

When asked what he would’ve wanted to do instead of being a dentist, he answered that there is nothing else on earth he’d rather do. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore and after\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLook Closer\n\n\n\n\n\nDentist Bio\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n", "jobTitle": "Dentist", "homeLocation": { "@type": "Place", "address": { "streetAddress": "Burnley" } } } Dr. Yasir Rahman Dentist { "@context": "https://schema. org", "@type": "Person", "name": "Dr. Yasir Rahman", "description": "\n\n\n\nMeet Dr. Yasir Rahman\n\n\n\nGDC-76339\n\n\n\nBDS 1999\n\n\n\n\n\n Composite Bonding\n General Dentistry\n Invisalign\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBook Consultation\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Yasir Rahman is one of our Dentists at Synergy Burnley. He holds a BDS which he studied for in Manchester. \n\n\n\nYasir can help patients with many areas of aesthetic dentistry including smile design, Invisalign and composite bonding. He also has an interest in endodontics, which is the study of the soft tissue within the tooth – in other words, root canal treatment! \n\n\n\nThough root canal is often scary, Yasir makes it easy for patients by building a rapport and gaining their trust. Gentle care, time and patience is the key to keeping patients calm for all treatments, even when they’re told they have to come in for the dreaded root canal. \n\n\n\nDr. Yasir is an accomplished dentist. He won best dental team at the 2010 Dentistry Awards – one of the most prestigious awards in the UK aimed at recognising excellence in the dental field. He was also shortlisted for our own internal awards for Best Dentist in Synergy in 2023 after only having been with us for 9 months! \n\n\n\nYasir likes to keep active through strength training and boxing, though he also has some more unusual hobbies... \n\n\n\nAfter a busy day, you’ll usually find him out on a motorbike ride or out target shooting! \n\n\n\nYasir is a family man, and he spends whatever spare time he has with his granddaughter. He also loves animals and has an aquarium of fish he cares for. He would like a dog, but he is waiting to retire so he can give it all the love, care, and commitment a dog needs. \n\n\n\nHe is a kind, caring and dependable person. He dedicates a large portion of his time to charity work. He volunteers at his local food bank, and helps to feed the homeless. He also works to support victims of crime within the community. \n\n\n\nYasir’s dream is to one day run an emergency dental clinic that provides out of hours access for all as well as care for unregistered patients. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore and after\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLook Closer\n\n\n\n\n\nDentist Bio\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n", "jobTitle": "Dentist", "homeLocation": { "@type": "Place", "address": { "streetAddress": "Burnley" } } } Dr. Afzal Patel Dentist { "@context": "https://schema. org", "@type": "Person", "name": "Dr. Afzal Patel", "description": "\n\n\n\nMeet Dr. Afzal Patel\n\n\n\nGDC-302732\n\n\n\nBDS 2022\n\n\n\n\n\n Composite Bonding\n Invisalign\n Single and Multiple Implants\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBook Consultation\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Afzal Patel studied for his BDS at the University of Birmingham, and graduated in 2022.

He aims to give constant reassurance and encourages patients to voice any concerns. Dr Jaf also practices relaxation techniques with patients, and encourages any anxious patients to bring a calming distraction such as music. \n\n\n\nAfter a challenging day, Dr. Jaf likes to hit the gym to unwind. Pushing himself physically helps to recharge his batteries by clearing his head and making him focus on the present moment, allowing him to move on from the difficulties of the day. On weekends he enjoys playing basketball. \n\n\n\nHe has travelled to too many countries to list, but says his favourites were Iraq and Japan. \n\n\n\nDr. Jaf believes in helping others and has engaged in voluntary work with Oxfam, Al-Ayn, and local community youth organisations. If he hadn’t been a dentist, he says he would’ve gone into IT – quite a career change! \n\n\n\nFollow @DoctorJaf on Instagram to keep up to date with his current cases. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore and after\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLook Closer\n\n\n\n\n\nDentist Bio\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n", "jobTitle": "Dentist", "homeLocation": { "@type": "Place", "address": { "streetAddress": "Little Lever" } } } Dr. Amr el-nana Dentist { "@context": "https://schema. org", "@type": "Person", "name": "Dr. Amr el-nana", "description": "\n\n\n\nMeet Dr. Amr el-Nana\n\n\n\nGDC-295734\n\n\n\nBDS 2019\n\n\n\n\n\n Single & Multiple Implants\n Full Arch Implants\n Composite Bonding\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBook Consultation\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAmr is one of our Dentists at our clinic in Little Lever.

He makes even the most nervous patients feel comfortable by simply being kind and approachable. \n\n\n\nHe likes to relax in the sauna with a good book after a busy day at work, and also enjoys keeping fit. He has previously run in the London Marathon, raising money for Operation Smile – a charity dedicated to providing cleft palate surgeries to children in developing countries. He also enjoys MMA and says if he hadn’t been a dentist, he would’ve liked to study nutrition and help people stay healthy as a dietitian. He may even give you some health tips during your appointment if you ask! \n\n\n\nBilal enjoys world travel, and his favourite trips so far have been to Norway and on safari in Kenya. He likes animals, and would like to retire to a farm where he can raise sheep and horses, grow his own veg, and practise his hobby of beekeeping. \n\n\n\nYou can find him on Instagram @dr. bilalsalim to see his amazing work. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore and after\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLook Closer\n\n\n\n\n\nDentist Bio\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n", "jobTitle": "Dentist", "homeLocation": { "@type": "Place", "address": { "streetAddress": "Farnworth" } } } Directions You can find your Synergy dental practice in Little Lever next to the market hall, down the street from Little Lever library.

He aims to give constant reassurance and encourages patients to voice any concerns. Dr Jaf also practices relaxation techniques with patients, and encourages any anxious patients to bring a calming distraction such as music. \n\n\n\nAfter a challenging day, Dr. Jaf likes to hit the gym to unwind. Pushing himself physically helps to recharge his batteries by clearing his head and making him focus on the present moment, allowing him to move on from the difficulties of the day. On weekends he enjoys playing basketball. \n\n\n\nHe has travelled to too many countries to list, but says his favourites were Iraq and Japan. \n\n\n\nDr. Jaf believes in helping others and has engaged in voluntary work with Oxfam, Al-Ayn, and local community youth organisations.

He was born in Warrington and studied dentistry at the University of Manchester. He has a special interest in cosmetic dentistry, using Invisalign, composite bonding, and porcelain veneers for full smile makeovers to give each patient a smile they can wear with confidence and pride. \n\n\n\nHe is currently studying for not one, but two post-graduate diplomas! One in aesthetic and restorative dentistry, and another in implant and restorative dentistry. He is excited to use his new skills to help as many patients as possible. \n\n\n\nMahesh has a series of steps for helping an anxious patient, the first of which is to listen to their concerns to put them at ease. Making sure the patient feels in control of treatment is also important, and he uses diagrams and videos to make the patient feel confident that they understand everything. Finally, Mahesh looks for something in common with all his patients, and finds something to joke about together. \n\n\n\nMahesh likes to use his skills as a dentist to help others, and has worked alongside charities in India providing dental care. He has also worked in Uganda, preforming research and helping to keep children off the streets. He enjoys world travel and has visited many countries, but would like to see even more of the world and do charity work in even more places. \n\n\n\nOutside of work, Mahesh plays kabaddi – a sport so fierce it makes rugby seem tame in comparison! He is part of the international team representing England, and regularly travels to London for training and tournaments. He also likes football and supports Man United. \n\n\n\nAfter a busy day, Mahesh sweats the stress away in the gym before heading home and practicing guitar. If he hadn’t been a dentist, he would’ve liked to start a band and go touring around the world, playing sell-out shows! \n\n\n\nYou can follow him on Instagram to see his cases @dr. maheshpopat\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore and after\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLook Closer\n\n\n\n\n\nDentist Bio\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n", "jobTitle": "Dentist", "homeLocation": { "@type": "Place", "address": { "streetAddress": "Oldham" } } } Dr. Salim Karimi Dentist { "@context": "https://schema. org", "@type": "Person", "name": "Dr. Salim Karimi", "description": "\n\n\n\nMeet Dr. Salim Karimi\n\n\n\nGDC-290422\n\n\n\nBDS 2020\n\n\n\n\n\n General Dentistry\n Invisalign\n Composite Bonding\n Smile Makeovers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBook Consultation\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Salim Karimi is one of our friendly dentists at our clinic in Oldham.

As a person, Mateen follows a growth-mindset. He has pushed himself to be successful, and strives to teach other dentists not just clinical skills, but the mental fortitude and life skills to accomplish success and confidence. \n\n\n\nMateen always wants to create a warm, welcoming environment for patients from the moment they enter the clinic. He finds it best to connect with patients through conversation – and speaks fluent English, Punjabi and Urdu as well as Hungarian to an intermediate level thanks to his time living in Hungary during university. \n\n\n\nOutside of his professional endeavours, Mateen enjoys spending his free time keeping fit and healthy through swimming, running, and weightlifting. He believes in exercising daily, and doing it early as a way to kick start the day. He says that our bodies are the most expensive asset that we have, and that we should look after ourselves and our health – after all, our bodies are all we’re left with when we go! \n\n\n\nMateen also believes in the importance of having a support network to back you when things get difficult. For Mateen, this support network is his family.

He has also undertaken training in IV Sedation – a practice that helps anxious patients by inducing a relaxed state and reducing pain whist remaining conscious. He does not practice general dentistry, and he wanted to focus all his attention on developing his oral surgery skills – as such, he exclusively practices oral surgery and is one of the best in the business. \n\n\n\nDr Wasif is especially adept at all things involving implant dentistry and is capable of handling complex cases requiring hard and soft tissue augmentation, sinus grafting, and immediate loading. He is passionate about transforming lives through dental implants, using their capacity to restore a more natural form and function to patient smiles. \n\n\n\nHe defines himself as a peripatetic oral surgeon – meaning he offers his services at other practices so as many patients as possible can benefit from his wealth of experience. \n\n\n\nOutside of work, Wasif enjoys spending time in nature taking his children out for walks, keeping active at the gym, or relaxing with a good book.

After completing Vocational Training, she spent a year as a Senior House Officer in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, giving her invaluable experience in managing complex conditions not normally faced in general practice. \n\n\n\nDuring this time, she passed her examinations to become a Member of the Faculty of Dental Surgery of the Royal College of Surgeons of England. She was even featured in the British Dental Journal after winning a prize from the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh. \n\n\n\nShe has been a certified Invisalign provider since 2008, and has been placing implants since 2018. She is a member of the International Team for Implantology and likes to keep up to date with the latest developments in the field. \n\n\n\nShe attained her MSc in Dental Implantology from the University of Salford and the prestigious ICE institute. \n\n\n\nShammi has dedicated time to helping others reach their maximum potential, and has taught junior dentists when working as an Educational Supervisor to train overseas graduates to the standards required by the GDC. \n\n\n\nWhen faced with a nervous patient, Shammi makes sure to talk through the cause of distress and work out a plan to conquer fear together using kindness, patience, and empathy. \n\n\n\nAfter a rough day at work, Shammi likes to relax by spending time with her family. On weekends, she likes to swim and hike, and enjoys bundling up with a good book and a big pot of coffee! In fact, if she hadn’t have become a dentist, she would’ve liked to write a novel – though she still might still give it a go! Perhaps we’ll catch her name on the Sunday Times Bestseller list in a few years. \n\n\n\nShammi likes to travel the world, and has visited almost every continent on earth. She has always hoped to travel with DentAid to provide dental services in refugee camps. Despite this, Shammi is always humble and says she feels as though she still hasn’t done enough charity work. \n\n\n\nYou can find Shammi on Instagram @dr. shammidentist to see her work. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore and after\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLook Closer\n\n\n\n\n\nDentist Bio\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n", "jobTitle": "Dentist", "homeLocation": { "@type": "Place", "address": { "streetAddress": "Haslingden" } } } Dr. Faraz Tahir Dentist { "@context": "https://schema. org", "@type": "Person", "name": "Dr. Faraz Tahir", "description": "\n\n\n\nMeet Dr. Faraz Tahir\n\n\n\nGDC-264550\n\n\n\nBDS 2016, MJDF\n\n\n\n\n\n General Dentistry\n Invisalign\n Composite Bonding\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBook Consultation\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Faraz Tahir holds a BDS from the University of Manchester and has a wealth of experience and expertise in both NHS and private dentistry.

His focus is always on providing the highest quality care through attention to detail. \n\n\n\nZohaib recognises that dental visits can be really frightening for some patients, and ensures that every patient has the option to visit his surgery room without fear. He focuses on creating a relaxed, casual environment for patients and ensures he has extra time set aside to discuss any fears and find ways to work around them. If you’re feeling nervous, Zohaib wants to help you identify the cause so you can work through it together – helping you to conquer your fears so they are no longer a barrier to future dental treatments. \n\n\n\nOutside of dentistry, Zohaib loves to travel and taste different cuisines from every corner of the globe. He has also travelled in a professional capacity, providing voluntary dental aid in South East Asia to those who are unable to access dental care. \n\n\n\nWhilst Zohaib loves dentistry, he also misses playing football at a semi-pro level and wishes he could’ve taken it further. We all wish we were pro footballers, don’t we? \n\n\n\nZohaib is a big believer in the support of family, which is why he always puts his loved ones first.

Update COVID-19 – 1 June 2022 There is not disruption reported due to COVID-19 virus; all our dental clinics are open and seeing patients. Please use the website to book an appointment or give reception a call and they will find a slot for you. UPDATE COVID-19 - 1 March 2021 All our Dental Clinics are open; we are prioritising emergencies and we are taking on new private patients. For NHS availability please enquire with the Clinic Reception. (Synergy Dental Clinics Locator) UPDATE COVID-19 - November 2020 You will have all heard the prime ministers broadcast about a new lock down coming into effect shortly. As per the governments guidance, patients can still attend appointments as normal. Our focus remains primarily on patient and staff safety. All of our clinics have a high level of PPE available to match our concrete operating procedures which have been in use since March. All of our clinics remain OPEN! We are confident that we are doing significantly more than is necessary to keep everyone 100% safe. It is very important that your access to healthcare continuous throughout the coming period. We look forward to seeing you at your next appointment! COVID-19 - March 2020 Firstly, all of us here at Synergy Dental clinic hope you are well and staying safe. As you already know, all dental clinics are in fact closed as a matter of public safety due to government guidelines set on 26/03/20. We have now been updated with a reopening date for face to face appointments. During the 'closed' period we have been operating an urgent dental hub meaning we are ahead in terms of what treatments we will now be able to offer. Unless you have a problem, we ask that you DO NOT contact the practice immediately so that we are able to keep the phone lines free and deal with patients who are in a lot of pain. Do not worry, we have not forgot about you if you have any outstanding treatment and our team will be contacting you over the coming weeks. Emergencies Patients who wish to book in for any emergency treatment must call the practice and our clinical team will be on hand to guide you through the process. We do have to follow a very strict triage process to ensure ONLY emergencies are seen. Patients will be triaged and an appointment may be offered as a result. Cosmetic Dentistry We also understand that many patients are considering other treatments such as Invisalign, Teeth Whitening, Dental Implants, Composite bonding, and any other cosmetic work. We are able to see patients for an appointment to discuss all treatment options. If you have had a consultation we will now be in contact with you to get the treatment started. Online Video Consultations are STILL available The service is running successfully and we would like to say a huge thank you to all those who have begun using this as a way to speak to one of our dentists. If you have an emergency or wish to discuss any other dental treatment please call the practice the practice and a clinical member of our team can either book you a virtual appointment or directly into the clinic dependent on the triage result. Keep us in the loop We are checking our social media messages and emails daily - If you have a question that you haven't been able to find an answer for on the above platforms. We endeavour to respond to you as quickly as possible. Please try and keep our phone lines free for emergencies. Again thank you for your support in keeping everyone safe, We’re really happy to be seeing all of our patients back June 8th – and I’m sure you can’t wait to see us too! We must, though, still stay cautious and make sure our clinics are kept safe for both our patients and clinical staff. Upon attending your Synergy appointment, we’d like to walk you through what to expect. These steps are vital for eliminating the risk of the virus spreading, so you must abide by our COVID-19 infection control measures if you wish to enter our clinics. You can expect the following: Temperature Check When you arrive at the clinic the receptionist will greet you at the door, and we will log your temperature using a laser thermometer. Keep Personal Items With You You will be asked to keep your personal items with you at all times. Sanitise Hands You will be asked to sanitise your hands using hand sanitiser. Clinical Triage The receptionist will go through a clinical triage before you are seen by the Dentist Distancing You will be given a face mask and asked to take a seat in a designated space. See The Dentist The nurse will invite you to the surgery when the dentist is ready to see you.

> Over 17 hours, in July, Dr Bagasi will look to complete a 2.4-mile swim, a 112-mile cycle and a full marathon. Synergy Dental Clinics.
- Published: 2019-02-04

Having taken part in numerous charity 10K runs and half-marathons over the years, he is preparing for his biggest challenge yet – the ironman triathlon. Over 17 hours, in July, Dr Bagasi will look to complete a 2. 4-mile swim, a 112-mile cycle and a full marathon. He has many motives for taking part in this particular challenge. One is to raise money for numerous hospices dotted across every town in the north-west that Synergy Dental has a presence; across Blackpool, Preston, Blackburn, Bolton, Bury and Ormskirk – as well as supporting dental charity Bridge2aid. The other is to be the bastion of awareness and inspiration for fellow associate dentists across the industry – by demonstrating how much engaging in a fitness-related hobby can assist in alleviating some of the psychological burdens that dentists carry, to ensure they are at the peak of their professional capabilities at all times. The problem ‘I think it is often an under-reported aspect of the profession, but a lot of dentists suffer from stress and burnout, which has negative psychological impacts on them outside of their surgeries and trickles into their personal lives,’ says Dr Bagasi. The stress and burnout he refers to stems from several sources – all of which are essential to stay on top of, if dentists are to run a successful practice. Elements such as; complaints from disgruntled patients, financial concerns placed by the pressure of NHS’ units of dental activity (UDA) targets, dealing with personal issues, changing regulations and ongoing Care Quality Commission (CQC) inspections, to name but a few. ‘I’ve been very fortunate not to suffer from severe stress and burnout – largely due to the fantastic team I have to support me – but I have a lot of friends in the industry who regularly turn to me for advice and tips,’ Dr Bagasi continues. ‘The majority of them usually ask me how to deal with the aforementioned issues as well as general advice. ‘My approach is always the same for each case – to provide a shoulder to lean on, to listen and then to advise them on how to tackle the problems based on how I have dealt with them in the past. ‘Most of the time it works, but there are times where it doesn’t and they call me back facing the same problems again. ‘That is when you have to start considering what type of psychological impact it may be having on them. ‘Could any other method help them to alleviate this stress? ’ The solution Dr Bagasi knows only too well how much training for long-distance endurance challenges has helped him prevent the stresses of being a busy dentist from overwhelming him. Ever since he graduated from Birmingham University in 2005, he has always trained over long periods to prepare himself for numerous half marathons, as well as a series of shorter distance running, in five-kilometre and 10-kilometre runs. When he isn’t training for these types of challenges he likes to head to his local gym and push his body to its limits by taking part in high-intensity circuit training, weightlifting as well as a mixture of boxing and mixed martial arts training. The impact of which has allowed him to leave any issues from his practice behind and allowing him to find something else to focus on. Furthermore, the resultant clarity of mind has allowed him to expand his chain of dental practices – in just over 10 years, the 36-year-old from Bolton has impressively grown his empire from a single practice to eight and counting. He says the formula to his secret is quite simple: ‘Something I tell my colleagues is that it is important to have something else to focus on and challenge you outside of work. ‘This doesn’t exclusively apply to dentists either – anyone can and should do it. ‘There’s nothing better than engaging in some sort of exercise to help you. ‘For me, it is in the form of running and various cardio-based activities, but for others, it may be in other forms – there are so many out there to choose from. ‘Exercise has been scientifically proven to release endorphins in your brain to energise your spirit and make you feel good about yourself. ‘It helps you break out of the cycle of negative thoughts brought on by stress that can lead to anxiety and depression. ‘When you finish a training session or a gym class, the feeling of achievement can get addictive and motivates you to challenge yourself more. ‘The ethos of the work/life balance is something that runs through Synergy Dental Group. ‘Associates are encouraged to have a healthy balance between practice life and their own lives. ‘In clinical practice, we like to make sure the associates are not drowned with excessive UDA targets and have a regular feed of private dentistry that they enjoy. ‘All of our associates are regularly encouraged to upskill their clinical dentistry and spend longer times with their patients, so they can provide a higher level of dentistry including cosmetic dentistry, restorative dentistry and dental implants. ’ SOURCE: dentistry. co. uk

NHS Dental Treatment All the treatment your dentist believes is clinically necessary to achieve and maintain good oral health is available on the NHS. This means that the NHS provides any treatment you need to keep your mouth, teeth and gums healthy. It does not include treatments that you might want for cosmetic reasons but that are not clinically necessary. The following list of dental treatments is therefore not a comprehensive list of treatments that all patients are entitled to under NHS services provision. For each individual course of treatment, a dentist will indicate the treatment options that are clinically appropriate for your personal circumstances and based on specific clinical judgement each time.

> Dental extraction treatments involve the removal of one or more teeth. It may be required because the tooth is causing pain, infected (abscess), decayed etc
- Published: 2018-09-11
- Modified: 2019-11-15
- URL: https://synergydental.org.uk/tooth-extractions/
Dental Extractions £100 – £250 What Is A Dental Extraction? Put simply, a dental extraction is the process of having a tooth removed. Most dental extractions are simple and can be performed by a general dentist, though extractions for teeth that have snapped off below the gumline or wisdom teeth extractions may need to be performed by a specially trained dentist. Dental extractions can usually be performed quickly with little need for planning – meaning we can perform most extractions as soon as it’s convenient for you. Removing a tooth is always a last resort at Synergy. We only remove teeth if the damage is too extensive to be repaired using cosmetic treatments, or when there is a risk of the damage worsening to affect other teeth. Why Might I Need A Dental Extraction? There are several reasons why we may need to take a tooth out – though we always try to avoid doing so. The main reasons for needing to have a tooth removed are: Severe tooth decay Loose teeth due to severe gum disease Fractured (broken) teeth An infection or abscess Oral trauma caused by an injury (during activities such as sports) What Happens During A Dental Extraction? Dental extractions are usually quick and simple procedures. Your dentist will start by administering a local anaesthetic to numb the area, so you don’t feel pain during the procedure. Then, a dental elevator will be used to loosen the tooth, and forceps will be used to remove the tooth. You may feel some pressure as the tooth is removed, but you should not feel pain due to the local anaesthetic used. In some cases, an extraction may require more complex surgical methods, for example if the tooth has snapped off close to the gumline, in which case your dentist may refer you to a specialist within Synergy. What Aftercare Should I Follow After A Dental Extraction? Following a dental extraction, you may feel some pain as the anaesthetic wears off. For the first 24 hours after your extraction, we recommend that you rest. It’s a good idea to take a day off work and avoid exercise. Keep your head elevated to minimize bleeding, and avoid contact with the area with food. Be aware that drinking liquids may loosen any blood clots, and might encourage bleeding. Do not drink hot beverages, as this will encourage bleeding. After 24 hours, you may rinse the site with salt water solution – add a teaspoon of salt to hot water, allow to cool before rinsing your mouth. You can also begin eating soft foods. Avoid smoking until you are fully healed, as this can increase infection risk. Patient Reviews Apply for Dental Finance!

He focuses on creating a relaxed, casual environment for patients and ensures he has extra time set aside to discuss any fears and find ways to work around them. If you’re feeling nervous, Zohaib wants to help you identify the cause so you can work through it together – helping you to conquer your fears so they are no longer a barrier to future dental treatments. \n\n\n\nOutside of dentistry, Zohaib loves to travel and taste different cuisines from every corner of the globe.

He chose to study in Bulgaria as the dental degree lasts for 6 and a half years, with the first 3 years covering aspects of medicine. He wanted the clinical exposure and the holistic understanding of how a patient’s oral health impacts their overall health. He also holds a PG diploma from our SynTrain academy, enabling him to take on complex cases such as implant surgeries. \n\n\n\nLike many of our Synergy dentists, he is experienced in using digital dentistry to produce the best possible results for patients. Some of his areas of expertise include managing cases of tooth wear and root canal treatments. He’s also skilled in cosmetic areas of dentistry and practises advanced restorative dentistry, teeth whitening, composite bonding, dentures, crowns, bridges, and veneers. \n\n\n\nHe is also highly experienced in handling nervous patients. \n\n\n\nAfter a hard day at work, you can catch Reza at the gym sweating away the stress.

That’s why he is insistent that Synergy only uses market-leading materials from brands like Straumann and Invisalign, and all of our clinics are fitted with cutting-edge technology. \n\n\n\nOur first clinic opened its doors in 2007 on Central Drive in Blackpool, where Zuber still practises dentistry to this day - when he’s not running the business from our Bolton headquarters. He feels a personal connection to his Blackpool patients, as many of his patients are families he has treated over the course of generations, watching patients who he treated as children grow up and now bring in their own young children. Seeing the difference he has made on a family and their oral health is one of the best parts of his job. \n\n\n\nWith a special interest in implantology, Zuber is the person to see if you’re looking for single implants or full arch same day implants, having placed 1000s of implants himself using our digital dentistry techniques to precisely plan each patient’s implant placement, minimising pain and surgery time. His years of experience and skill have led to him being the go-to person for referring complex cases, both from other dentists and patient-self referral. He is also experienced in handling nervous patients. Whilst his relaxed personality and sense of humour is enough to put people at ease, he is also trained in conscious sedation to help patients with a fear of the dentist. Talented at restorative work and cosmetic smile makeovers, Zuber can make the smile of your dreams a reality. \n\n\n\nBoltonian to the core, Zuber spends his free time finding ways to give back to the local community through charity work, supporting local food banks and educating about oral health. Being a parent himself, Zuber is motivated towards causes that divert youths away from crime and provide young people with alternative activities to being out on the streets. He is also a strong advocate for mental health awareness and the benefits of exercise for mental wellbeing. As someone who leads by example, Zuber enjoys triathlon to relieve stress. See if you can catch him running by at the next Bolton Ironman! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore and after\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLook Closer\n\n\n\n\n\nDentist Bio\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n", "jobTitle": "Dentist", "homeLocation": { "@type": "Place", "address": { "streetAddress": "Blackpool" } } } Dr. Aunkit Vaja Dentist { "@context": "https://schema. org", "@type": "Person", "name": "Dr. Aunkit Vaja", "description": "\n\n\n\nMeet Dr. Aunkit Vaja\n\n\n\nGDC-250851\n\n\n\nBDS (hons) 2014, MFDS, RCPS\n\n\n\n\n\n Composite Bonding\n Invisalign\n Smile Makeovers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBook Consultation\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr Aunkit Vaja is one of our exceptional Synergy dentists at our Blackpool clinic, and has been part of our team since September 2016.

As Blackpool is one of our biggest practices, knowing he has that support is vital to Aunkit. He is very highly organised and likes to know where everything is – his surgery room is like a second home to him. \n\n\n\nGiving back to the community is a big motivator for Aunkit.

He was born in Dubai and moved to the UK to study at the Eastman Dental Institute in London where he earned not one, but two master’s level degrees! He holds an MSc in Oral Maxillofacial Surgery and an MSc in Implantology. He has over 7 years of experience in this field, and is also a Tier 2 Specialist led Oral Surgery Practitioner. He has also undertaken training in IV Sedation – a practice that helps anxious patients by inducing a relaxed state and reducing pain whist remaining conscious. He does not practice general dentistry, and he wanted to focus all his attention on developing his oral surgery skills – as such, he exclusively practices oral surgery and is one of the best in the business. \n\n\n\nDr Wasif is especially adept at all things involving implant dentistry and is capable of handling complex cases requiring hard and soft tissue augmentation, sinus grafting, and immediate loading. He is passionate about transforming lives through dental implants, using their capacity to restore a more natural form and function to patient smiles. \n\n\n\nHe defines himself as a peripatetic oral surgeon – meaning he offers his services at other practices so as many patients as possible can benefit from his wealth of experience. \n\n\n\nOutside of work, Wasif enjoys spending time in nature taking his children out for walks, keeping active at the gym, or relaxing with a good book. He also likes playing cricket, badminton, and tennis. \n\n\n\nHe is a passionate advocate for improving the lives of those affected by cancer and is a member of multiple cancer charities. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore and after\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLook Closer\n\n\n\n\n\nDentist Bio\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n", "jobTitle": "Dentist", "homeLocation": { "@type": "Place", "address": { "streetAddress": "Bolton" } } } Dr. Mo Patel Dentist { "@context": "https://schema. org", "@type": "Person", "name": "Dr. Mo Patel", "description": "\n\n\n\nMeet Dr. Mo Patel\n\n\n\nGDC-278367\n\n\n\nBDS 2018\n\n\n\n\n\n Single & Multiple Implants\n Full Arch Implants\n Invisalign\n Composite Bonding\n Smile Makeovers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBook Consultation\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Mohammed Patel takes a patient-centric approach to dental care.

He takes a holistic approach to dental care, emphasising oral hygiene education and preventive care as the cornerstone of every patient’s treatment. He has furthered his knowledge through courses on dental photography and Invisalign, and holds a postgraduate qualification in implant dentistry. \n\n\n\nDr. Patel covers almost every area of dentistry, but he especially enjoys creating full-smile makeovers for his patients. Seeing the amazement and joy on a patient’s face when they get the smile of their dreams is what makes it all worthwhile. \n\n\n\nBeyond his professional work, Mo finds joy in giving back to the community through volunteering initiatives. As well as mentoring young people, he has also travelled to provide dental care in underserved regions like Cambodia. \n\n\n\nOutside the realm of dentistry, Dr. Patel likes playing rugby and football – we’ll forgive him for supporting Arsenal! In winter months, he likes to escape to the slopes for skiing. \n\n\n\nHe’s also fluent in 3 languages: English, Gujarati and Urdu. \n\n\n\nMo’s life philosophy is, “Work to become, not to acquire,” and he believes in focussing on personal development, investing in his skillset to improve the quality of his work for his patients. \n\n\n\nYou can follow Mo on Instagram @dr. mopatel\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore and after\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLook Closer\n\n\n\n\n\nDentist Bio\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n", "jobTitle": "Dentist", "homeLocation": { "@type": "Place", "address": { "streetAddress": "Bolton" } } } Directions If you’re looking for a good dentist in Bolton you can find us on Blackburn Road.

In 2021 he completed a course in Invisalign treatment and completed his post-graduate diploma in Implant and Restorative Dentistry through our SynTrain academy in 2023. \n\n\n\nA jack-of-all-trades, Kashif can handle anything including general dentistry, teeth straightening through Invisalign, implant surgery, and full smile makeovers. \n\n\n\nKashif is excellent at handling nervous patients. He prides himself on making dental visits pleasant for all his patients, which is why he has also undergone training in conscious sedation to help particularly anxious patients feel relaxed. Kashif says the key to handling a nervous patient is making sure they know they’re in control. His kind nature and warm bedside manner is guaranteed to put even the most anxious patient at ease. \n\n\n\nKashif likes to keep active, pumping-iron at the gym or going for long bike rides. He also likes football. Kashif is more than just a health-freak. He also likes a good Netflix binge or an old-fashioned gaming marathon on the PlayStation. On weekends, he likes doing DIY projects around the house and spending time with his family. \n\n\n\nKashif’s family describe him as polite, kind and caring – evidenced by the amazing charity work he’s done. He regularly volunteers at local charity shops and hospices and has spent time providing voluntary dental treatment in Cambodia. \n\n\n\nKashif likes to travel the world, and has visited several European capital cities, as well as spending time travelling in Vietnam, Singapore, and Thailand among many other places. Kashif plans to spend retirement in a seaside villa somewhere warm – hopefully where he can see the stars and pursue his other love, astrophysics. \n\n\n\nYou can follow Kashif on Instagram @kasherz325. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore and after\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLook Closer\n\n\n\n\n\nDentist Bio\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n", "jobTitle": "Dentist", "homeLocation": { "@type": "Place", "address": { "streetAddress": "Bury" } } } Dr. Nader Modarres Dentist { "@context": "https://schema. org", "@type": "Person", "name": "Dr. Nader Modarres", "description": "\n\n\n\nMeet Dr. Nader Modarres\n\n\n\nGDC-281837\n\n\n\nDDS 2010, CBCT\n\n\n\n\n\n Single & Multiple Implants\n Full Arch Implants\n Pterygoid Implants\n Minor Oral Surgery\n Composite Bonding\n Smile Makeovers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBook Consultation\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Nader Modarres (or Dr. Nad as he is affectionately called) is an exceptionally skilled oral surgeon. He studied his Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) at the Kerman Dental university of Iran and graduated in 2010. \n\n\n\nWith over a decade of experience, Dr. Nad exclusively practises oral surgery. By focusing on one area of dentistry, Dr. Modarres has been able to focus on providing advanced treatments not ordinarily available. He has a special interest in advanced, complex cases. \n\n\n\nNader is also a believer in helping others wherever possible. As a student, Dr. Nad helped develop a programme to help students in a poor financial situation. Growing up in Iran, he knew not everyone was able to afford and access dental care. After qualifying as a dentist, Dr. Nad would frequently visit schools to provide free checkups for children, helping them to develop good oral hygiene habits young to prevent future dental problems. He would also often open the doors of his clinic after hours to provide free treatment to those who were in need of urgent care. After moving to the UK, he continued to provide treatment to those who could not afford dental care – helping those in pain was the main reason he became a dentist. Seeing the joy his work brings to his patients, sharing in their happiness, and knowing he’s changed a life is his main source of pride as a dentist. \n\n\n\nNot only does Dr. Modarres offer all areas of dental implantology including maxillary pterygoid implants, he also offers sinus lift and soft tissue management as well as practising advanced restorative treatments. Using a fully digital workflow, Dr. Nad’s patients can benefit from increased speed of treatment as well as improved accuracy and lower pain post-surgery. \n\n\n\nOutside of dentistry, Nader is entirely focused on family life. Creating wonderful memories with his two children is his favourite hobby, taking them out to restaurants, shops and on holidays. \n\n\n\nOther than his family, Nader spends his spare time studying to improve his dentistry skills, keeping updated with the latest developments in the field. Dentistry and family are all he really needs in life! \n\n\n\nWhen he eventually retires, Dr. Nad plans to spend his time catching up on all the Netflix shows he’s missed out on when he’s been busy studying! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore and after\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLook Closer\n\n\n\n\n\nDentist Bio\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n", "jobTitle": "Dentist", "homeLocation": { "@type": "Place", "address": { "streetAddress": "Burnley" } } } Directions Our Bury dental surgery is located on Tenterden Street, and is easy to spot from Jubilee Way on the main route in and out of Bury.

He studied for his BDS at University College London, and has since earned an MSc as well as earning a Diploma of Membership of the Faculty of Dental Surgery. He is a member of the Faculty of the Royal College of Surgeons of Ireland and is a qualified oral surgeon. \n\n\n\nDr. Vinayahan is one of the best people to see if you’re feeling nervous about your dental treatment. Not only does he offer conscious sedation, allowing patients to relax through their treatment whilst remaining conscious, he also believes in the power of conversation and understanding – using a kind and soft manner of speech to make patients know that their feelings are normal, and there is nothing to worry about. \n\n\n\nHe is also a master of meditation. He spends his spare time providing free teaching to guide people in how to improve their lives and empower themselves through meditation and mindfulness. If you’re really worried about your trip to the dentist, ask Dr. Vinayahan if he can recommend some meditation tips to help you clear your head. \n\n\n\nAfter work, you can find Ganeshamoorthy playing badminton, when he’s not busy being a personal taxi service for his daughter! \n\n\n\nGaneshamoorthy has always wanted to help others. If he hadn’t become a dentist for Synergy, he would’ve wanted to provide care whilst working in a hospital. His dream is to spend his retirement in the service of caring for underprivileged children. \n\n\n\nHe is a knowledgeable and disciplined person, but balances out his serious side with a friendly attitude and a good sense of humour. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore and after\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLook Closer\n\n\n\n\n\nDentist Bio\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n", "jobTitle": "Dentist", "homeLocation": { "@type": "Place", "address": { "streetAddress": "Preston" } } } Dr. Ali Altaf Dentist { "@context": "https://schema. org", "@type": "Person", "name": "Dr. Ali Altaf", "description": "\n\n\n\nMeet Dr. Ali Altaf\n\n\n\nGDC-85605\n\n\n\nBDentSc 2012, BA Sc, MJDF\n\n\n\n\n\n Single and Multiple Implants\n Full Arch Implants\n Invisalign\n Composite Bonding\n Smile Makeovers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBook Consultation\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Ali Altaf is one of our most accomplished Synergy Dentists. When he’s not busy being a superstar appearing on the BBC or on ITV news, you’ll find him hard at work at our Preston Clinic where he is our Head Dentist. \n\n\n\nAli was born in Saudi Arabia and moved to the UK in 2013 after graduating. He studied his BDS at Trinity College Dublin – which is why you might hear a slight Irish accent when you speak to him! His gentle voice and soft tone help to soothe any nervous patients. \n\n\n\nSince finishing university, Dr. Ali hasn’t stopped learning. He’s earned post-graduate diplomas in various areas and his MSc in Implantology. He has over 10 years of experience in aesthetic dentistry and full-mouth rehabilitation, and is so excellent that he has become one of our SynTrain Academy lecturers, training the next generation of brilliant dentists. \n\n\n\nThere’s almost nothing that Ali doesn’t know about dentistry, so no matter what your concern is, Dr. Altaf can help. He’s even won Dentist of the Year and Practice of the Year at the Lancashire Health Hero Awards, as well as winning our Best Dentist at Synergy and our best Developed Dentist at Synergy titles! \n\n\n\nAli’s dedication to dentistry doesn’t stop at the clinic doors. He is a trustee with the Refugee Crisis Foundation, a volunteer based non-profit organisation dedicated to easing the suffering of refugees globally. Their objectives are not only to provide basic needs, but also education and medical aid. \n\n\n\nThey began in 2015, providing emergency dental care from a mobile dental clinic in the “Jungle” refugee camp in Callis. Since then, their projects have expanded to include the Rohingya Appeal, providing aid for Rohingya Muslims in Bangladesh who have been forced to flee their homes due to violence and persecution. \n\n\n\nThe RCF Healthy Smiles Initiative aims to take a proactive approach to dentistry, focusing on education. Many dental problems found in refugee camps are treatable, but develop into severe conditions due to the lack of care available. Rather than waiting for someone’s oral health to deteriorate, Healthy Smiles Initiative aims to prevent these problems before it reaches the need for critical intervention. \n\n\n\nAs a member of the board of trustees, Dr. Altaf has been a key member of developing these initiatives and raising awareness of them here in the UK through his appearances on national news. You can learn more about Ali’s work and the RCF here\n\n\n\nWhen he’s not at work, teaching, or supporting the RCF, you can find Ali playing badminton or gaming on his PC. Ali is a certified tech-geek, and dreams of living in the most technologically advanced house possible – though having an automated house does sound great... imagine having your coffee make itself as soon as you wake up! \n\n\n\nYou can find Ali’s work on Instagram @dr. alialtaf\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore and after\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLook Closer\n\n\n\n\n\nDentist Bio\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n", "jobTitle": "Dentist", "homeLocation": { "@type": "Place", "address": { "streetAddress": "Preston" } } } Dr. Parvathy Manoj Dentist { "@context": "https://schema. org", "@type": "Person", "name": "Dr. Parvathy Manoj", "description": "\n\n\n\nMeet Dr. Parvathy Manoj\n\n\n\nGDC-307528\n\n\n\nBDS (2018)\n\n\n\n\n\n Invisalign\n Composite Bonding\n Smile Makeovers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBook Consultation\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Parvathy Manoj completed her BDS in 2018.

A common reason for Dentists running late is that some patients do not attend on time. Please note, you may not be seen if you are late for your appointment. If you are late for your appointment you may have to wait until the end of surgery to be seen. This is to ensure we run our appointments on time. The first time an NHS patient fails to attend a booked appointment we will send them an FTA (failed to attend) letter reminding them that in future they must cancel appointments if they are unable to attend. After two failures to attend we will advise you to register with another surgery and remove you from our register. To avoid being sent an FTA letter please ensure that you cancel your appointment a minimum 48 hours before the appointment time. Anything cancelled after this time could count as an FTA. Failure to attend your appointments could mean refusal of treatment by your dentist, and you may lose your place on our register & incur charges. The current charge for private patients is £1 per 1 minute of the booked appointment to cover the loss of surgery time. Please give a minimum of 48 hours’ notice should you not be able to attend any of your appointments. For Dental Implants, Sedation and long appointment cancellation, the patient will lose their deposit if 1 weeks’ notice is not given to cancel or re-arrange. Only in very exceptional circumstance do the above rules not apply, but this is at the discretion of the treating Dentist, Area Manager, Practice Manager and Head Receptionist. This is to ensure fairness to our patients & staff. Thank you, Synergy Dental Group Working Together for Better Results

What is a dental inlay? Often used as an alternative to regular dental fillings, inlays are a bespoke dental restoration method used to fill cavities and gaps in teeth. Many people favour these over regular fillings, but in cases where the teeth are particularly weak or suffering from large areas of decay, this may be the only suitable treatment. Each inlay is created in our Synergy Dental labs and replaces part of a tooth lost through decay or damage, creating a strong tooth substitute that is able to withstand use both at the front and the back of the mouth. Failed fillings can also be protected within this treatment, preventing a fracture and irreparable damage. What are the treatment benefits? Although inlays are similar to fillings, they provide a more accurate restoration of your teeth thanks to digital design technology used in the Synergy Dental lab. Not only does this improve the overall feel of the tooth, but it also helps prevent damage and further decay, providing a longer lasting solution. The bespoke nature of the procedure also provides a more natural look to that of regular fillings. Designed to fit your tooth perfectly, the inlay is extremely discreet and blends in with the colour and shape of surrounding teeth. The treatment process During a consultation with your dentist, the outer surface of the remaining tooth will be prepared before an impression of the tooth is taken. This will then be sent to the lab where a bespoke product will be constructed. While construction takes place, the dentist will fit a temporary solution to prevent further decay or damage. The finished prouct will then be fitted to the tooth once it has arrived at your local clinic. What is the cost? The cost per unit depends on the material chosen by the patient. Synergy Dental provides four options for material including porcelain, gold alloy, composite and zirconia, all of which incur a different cost. Material options There are four materials most commonly used: • Porcelain – Ideal for those desiring a natural look, this material requires a little more preparation and can abrade opposing teeth, but it does provide cosmetic appeal • Gold – Gold alloys do not appear natural but do provide long-term stability and strength, even on bite surfaces at the back of the mouth • Composite – Composite inlays are constructed from a resin and provide natural colouring and a lifespan similar to that of porcelain, without the abrasive qualities • Zirconia – This natural look ceramic provides cosmetic benefits while remaining extremely strong and long-lasting.

Synergy Dental opened its first practice in Blackpool in 2007, with a mission to offer patients that walked in through the door a unique experience – affordable and accessible dentistry. We started off with roughly 1,500 NHS patients in a single surgery practice, with one nurse accompanying our Founder, Dr Zuber Bagasi. However, due to demand a single surgery practice soon became a four-surgery practice with a wide variety of patients and skilled dentists. Now, 11 years on Synergy Dental Group has a total of nine practices located in Blackpool, Preston, Blackburn, Ormskirk, Bury, Farnworth and Birmingham. We are an award-winning chain of dentists and take great pride in providing our patients with the highest quality of dentistry around, using cutting-edge technology and materials.

At Synergy, we offer Prestige whitening, a 16% carbamide peroxide formula designed to let you whiten your teeth overnight at home. Unlike over the counter whitening kits, Prestige whitening trays are custom made to fit your mouth ensuring there are no air bubbles in the gel that can make your smile look patchy. Prestige also comes with a higher concentration of peroxide than what is available in over the counter products. Over the counter whitening can legally only have up to 0. 1% hydrogen peroxide concentration in the UK, meaning there’s not enough bleach to create a lasting change to your teeth - whereas Prestige can contain 16% carbamide peroxide as the treatment is under the supervision of a dentist.

If you feel you could benefit from a deeper clean, our professional clean includes a course of stain removal to help your teeth shine. Alternately, our Oxyjet clean includes airflow treatment for an extremely deep clean. If you’re looking to give your teeth a thorough cleaning, our Prestige clean is the deepest cleaning option we offer, which includes all of our cleaning packages in one. Scale and Cleaning Pricing Table Treatment Price Details Scale £50 Details Implant Clean £50 Details Professional Clean £80 Details Oxyjet Clean £100 Details Prestige Clean £175 Details Gum disease (sometimes called periodontitis) is a common but serious condition that can lead to tooth loss if left untreated. Signs of gum disease include bad breath, sore or red gums, and bleeding when you brush your teeth. If you or your dentist notice signs of gum disease, it’s important to book in for a proper assessment of your gums and arrange a proper course of treatment. Our gum disease treatments are priced per segment (called a sextant) of your mouth. Gum Disease Pricing Table Treatment Price Details Periodontal Assessment £30 Details OPG (Full mouth X-ray) £50 Details Periodontal Cleaning (per sextant) £80 Details Periodontal Maintenance £100 Details DENTAL FILLINGS Fillings are a routine dental treatment essential to repairing decayed teeth and reducing further damage. Fillings are commonly made from silver amalgam, used for back teeth due to their strength, or from tooth coloured composite material, used for front teeth for a more natural appearance. As an alternative to fillings, we also provide inlays. These are designed in our laboratory to fit the area of decay and are more durable than a traditional filling and more aesthetically pleasing as they have been designed to fit your tooth shape. They can be made from a variety of material qualities. If you’re looking to prevent decay, a fissure sealant will smooth the biting surfaces of your teeth where bacteria usually builds up.

Freedom of Information Access to Information Held by The Practice The practice may be asked by members of the public to disclose information, documents or records held by the practice. Requests for personal information are made under the Data Protection Act and for information about the NHS services provided by the practice are made under the Freedom of Information Act; such requests may be legitimate. All requests for access to personal information or information about the practice (where this information is not readily available in the practice information leaflet) should be passed to Data Protection officer: recordrequest@synergydental. org. uk The following summary describes who can request information, how the request should be made and how the practice will handle such requests. Requests for Personal Information Personal information is any information, note or record from which an individual can be identified. The individual does not have to be named but if they can be identified by cross-referencing the information with other data held by the practice (a patient database, for example) the information is regarded as personal information. The Data Protection Act allows individuals to request access to personal information about themselves. Those eligible to request access include: Any person aged 16 years or older A child under the age of 16 years who, in the considered opinion of the Practice Manager and/or the treating dentist, has the capacity to understand the information held by the practice. The parents or guardians of a child under the age of 16 years unless the child, in the considered opinion of the Practice Manager and/or the treating dentist, has the capacity to understand the information held by the practice. Children aged 11 years and under are too young to comprehend. The request should be for reasons connected to the health and welfare needs of the child and not in the interests of the parent, for example as part of divorce proceedings or separation disputes. A third party, such as a solicitor, who has the written consent of the person covered in the record. Checks must be undertaken to ensure that the consent is genuine – for example, by checking the patient’s signature or contacting the patient directly to confirm that they have given consent for the information to be disclosed. If a request for information concerns a deceased person, the information can be accessed by: The administrator or executor of the deceased person’s estate. A person who has a legal claim arising from the person’s death – the next of kin, for example. The person should specify the nature of their legal claim and why the information requested is relevant to that claim. Access to information can be denied if: Disclosure is likely to cause severe distress to the individual, for example, where the information relates to a person’s mental health or mental capacity. However, the disclosure of dental records is unlikely to cause severe distress. The individual has made more than one request within a reasonably short timescale and the information has not changed significantly. Providing the information requested would require a disproportionate effort. Proportionality depends on the difficulty, time and cost involved with complying with the request, the size of the practice and resources available, and the effect on the individual of not providing the information requested. The Request A request can be made in writing (including by email) and the individual making the request should: Describe the type of information that they require with specific dates, if possible. Include, for example, their name, address, patient number to ensure correct identification. You should be certain that the person asking for information has the right to request access to the records and, if necessary, ask them to provide proof of identity. The requested information will be provided within 20 days of receiving the original request or confirming the individual’s identity. You must provide a copy of the information free of charge. The Information Provided Generally, the individual will be given a permanent copy of the information requested as a photocopy of information held manually or a print-out of electronic information. The information must be supplied in an intelligible form. Requests for Information About The Practice Any member of the public can request, under the Freedom of Information Act, information associated with the provision of NHS services. The available information is described fully in the practice guide to information available under FOIA and the model publication scheme which is located in the practice policy folder. Where the information requested is part of a larger document, only the relevant part will be disclosed. Information that is exempt from disclosure under a FOIA request includes: Clinical records as they contain confidential personal information. Financial records as they may prejudice sensitive commercial interests. The DPO will confirm whether or not requested information is covered by an exemption. The Request The request can be made in writing (including by email) and the individual making the request should: Describe the type of information that they require with specific dates, if possible Include their name and address. The individual making the request does not have to give a reason. Details of charges for information provided under the Freedom of information Act are included in the practice guide to Information available under FOIA and the model publication scheme Information will be provided within 20 working days of the original request or confirmation of identity and from the receipt of the fee. An extension may be possible if more information about the request is needed or legal advice on whether an exemption applies is being taken. The person requesting the information must be told about any extension to the 20-working-day deadline. The Information Provided Much of the information covered by the Freedom of Information Act is published in the practice information leaflet or on the practice website. Requests for information that is not available in the practice information leaflet or on the practice website should be referred to the Practice Manager. If the practice does not hold the information requested, the applicant will be informed within the 20 working day time limit. Information will be provided in a way that is convenient for the person who requested it. This may in writing, by allowing the applicant to read it on the premises, or, if the information is held electronically, in a useable electronic format. The practice is not required to respond to vexatious requests for information, for example, requests designed to subject the practice or its staff to inconvenience, harassment or expense. If you feel that a request is vexatious, you should discuss it with the Practice Manager and Dr Zuber Bagasi the Practice Owner, who will decide how to handle the matter. The practice is not required to respond to repeated requests for the same or similar information (unless the information changes regularly, for example performance or activity information). If you feel that a request is a repeated one, discuss it with the Practice Manager who will decide how to handle the matter.

> Discover the reasons mewing is bad and the real effects of this viral dental trend on your jaw and overall health.

- Categories: Blog
Continuing our current series of blog posts debunking viral dental hacks, demystifying eco-dentistry, and helping solve bad habits, today we’re looking at one of the most viral dental hacks of all: mewing. What is Mewing? According to the users of TikTok, mewing is the new method to achieve sharp cheekbones and a slender jawline – but it’s not actually that new. Mewing is a method of “orthotropics”, a technique created by John Mew during the 1970s, but was popularised on social media by his son, Mike Mew, following a YouTube video. Mewing was intended to be used for children, and aims to reposition the jaw by encouraging the patient to hold their tongue at the roof of their mouth. This technique supposedly makes more space in the jaw, theoretically removing the need for braces in the future by expanding the jaw, allowing space for the teeth and tongue. It has been claimed that mewing can improve breathing disorders such as sleep apnea, increase nasal capacity, help speech disorders, and improve facial development. Why is Mewing Bad? Whilst all of these supposed benefits of mewing might sound good, the important thing to remember is that none of these claims are backed by scientific evidence and are therefore unfounded. The changes John Mew supposedly observed have not been proven to be as a result of his treatment, as it is normal for children’s facial shapes to change as they grow. There is no evidence that mewing actually works. Any new dental treatment has to undergo rigorous scientific testing before dentists are allowed to use it, but mewing is unproven. In fact, there is a large risk that mewing may in fact cause several problems that it is intended to correct and can lead to: Jaw problems Tooth damage Misaligned teeth Loose teeth Pain and discomfort due to pressure. If it’s Bad, Why is Mewing so Popular? There are several factors that have led to the popularity of mewing, though the primary culprit is social media. We live in a culture of constant comparison. With the possibility of image editing, filters, and AI enhancement, most of what we see online is not a true representation of what the person looks like, and yet we can’t help but compare ourselves to models and influencers. This, combined with the ease with which misinformation can spread online, has allowed mewing to become popular. The technique is mostly promoted by adolescents on TikTok, whose faces are naturally changing anyway. Most of the supposed “results” of mewing are unlikely to be as a result of the exercise. There is no evidence that mewing works – even if it did work, it is intended to be used for children, and likely would have no effect for adults whose jaws are already fully grown. You should always be wary of information on social media, especially medical information. Make sure you do your own research. Who is offering this information? What are their qualifications? Is the information they’re offering also printed in reputable medical journals and promoted by other medical professionals? What Are Alternatives to Mewing? If you’re interested in mewing for the supposed jaw enhancing benefits, there are several far better options. You can consider non-surgical treatments such as dermal fillers. When choosing dermal fillers, make sure you are seeing a qualified medical professional (such as our Synergy dentists). Ask whoever is providing your treatment about their qualifications and where they trained if you are unsure, or you can risk causing further complications. You can also consider facial massage and gua sha, which is believed to have a slimming effect as it aids facial drainage. Though this is temporary, facial massage can be performed daily. It may also help to relax your facial muscles which could improve your face shape and provide temporary relief from stress-related facial discomfort. What Happened to John and Mike Mew? John Mew, the founder of orthotropics and mewing, has been reprimanded by the GDC, though he continues to promote orthotropics and sell courses on the subject. His son, Mike Mew, has been struck off by the GDC. He is banned from providing dental treatment in the UK, following a tribunal by the GDC during which he was found to have provided unnecessary treatment to two children which had the potential to cause harm, and for his 2017 YouTube video which popularised information that was deemed misinformation. The cause for his suspension by the GDC is officially listed as misconduct. Mike Mew is erased from the GDC register until 2124, meaning he will never be able to legally practise dentistry in the UK again. You can read the results of Mike Mew’s tribunal on the GDC’s website. What’s The Verdict: Is Mewing Good or Bad? The risks of mewing far outweigh the possible benefits. There are better, proven methods of improving jaw shape. Maintaining good posture, fixing misalignment with braces, and dermal fillers are all more likely to provide better results. As always, we encourage you to thoroughly research any and all medical or healthcare information promoted on social media, which is why we have included our source list to allow you to research for yourself.

- Categories: Blog
With the holidays now in full swing, we’re also wrapping up our year here at Synergy. It’s been a busy 2024, with lots of exciting new projects ready to get underway from 2025. Here’s your run down of some of the biggest things to happen at synergy in 2024. Leyland & Preston Practices Get A Makeover Our Leyland and Preston branches have received full makeovers of the waiting room areas. Both of our practices hosted VIP launch events attended by the Mayor – who came to cut the ribbon. Our Preston clinic also invited several of influencers who have had treatment with us, making it a truly star-studded event. Both practices have been redesigned based on psychological research to create a calmer, more relaxing environment for both patients and staff, prioritising relaxed, neutral colours with natural light and soft furnishings – ensuring every visit is anxiety free. Dental Implants Nomination 2024 saw us open up for nominations from our local communities – allowing patients to nominate a friend or family member to receive dental implant treatment on us! This was our way of giving something back to our patients as a thank you for supporting us for all these years. We received hundreds of submissions from across the North West, and heard stories from our patients about how much dental implants would change their life. In the end, we chose Lee Mitchell from Preston, based on the nomination his daughter, Kirsty, submitted for him. A father of 11, all of Lee’s family sent in nominations telling us about how their dad never buys anything for himself, because everything he has goes to helping his kids, helping his community, and even rescuing dogs. We heard their story about what a kind, giving person Lee is, and felt it was time he deserved to have something back for himself. A Big New Adventure! Finally, at the end of the year, we secured our new home! After a year of massive growth, our head offices in Bolton were becoming a bit cramped. Our new building will house a state of the art teaching facility for dental professionals, along with an office space for all of our head office staff. Excitingly for patients, our new home will also contain our brand new flagship dental practice. Working in concert with our brand new in-house dental laboratory, Luxe Lab, we will be able to offer revolutionary new treatments such as same day smile makeovers. This means patients can have their dental treatment, and their cosmetic work will be produced in the laboratory whilst they wait, removing the need for multiple appointments. This is the first dental facility of this kind in the North West, meaning patients from across the country can come to us for their dental treatment and have everything done in just one day! We’ll be starting to move in January and the clinic will be up and running by early 2025, with employment opportunities for both clinical and non clinical staff on our Careers Website. From all of us at Synergy, happy holidays! We’ll see you again in 2025...

Festive season is fast approaching, and for some, the holidays are already in full swing. There’s a range of reasons to love Christmas, even if you don’t celebrate the religious aspects. For most people, the holiday season is about two main things: family, and food! Whilst we all know sugar is the arch-nemesis of oral hygiene, more dangers lurk in your festive feast than you might think... Here’s how to have your favourite Christmas foods without damaging your smile! Christmas Foods to Enjoy In Moderation We know it’s not Christmas without food. From unwrapping chocolates in stockings, to the constant stream of snacks throughout the day, free-flowing food and drink is a major part of Christmas. Whilst we’re not suggesting you skip out on the holiday fun, here’s some foods to enjoy in moderation: Sugar cookies – they’re called “sugar” cookies for a reason, and that’s because it’s the main ingredient! Dried fruits – how can fruit be unhealthy! ? Turns out, dried fruits are often coated in sugars, meaning this sweet treat is just more sugar masquerading as a healthy snack. Mince pies stuffed with dried fruit, pastry, and sugar, are an extra problem for your smile. Replace dried fruits with fresh fruits instead, and limit mince pies. Mulled wine – this sweet drink is high in sugar, whilst the alcohol dries your mouth out, limiting production of sugar-neutralising saliva. Plus, the red wine base contains tannins, which cause tooth staining. Limit this festive icon to just a single small glass with Christmas dinner, and drink water afterwards to help clear any lingering sugars off your teeth (not to mention lessen the effects of any hangovers on Boxing Day! ). Christmas Foods to Absolutely Avoid! Whilst nobody likes to hear that their favorite snacks are bad for them, these festive treats should be avoided as much as possible – unless you want to spend the New Year with the dentist! Candy canes – another holiday staple that consists mostly of sugar. These snacks look lovely trimming the tree, but because they’re meant to be sucked on for a long period, it means your teeth are repeatedly exposed to sugar. Toffees and peanut brittles – these foods are a double dose of bad news for your smile. Hard and chewy, toffees and peanut brittles are often the cause of damaged teeth. They’ve even been known to pull out fillings, crowns, or loose teeth due to their sticky nature. Dodge this festive snack at all costs! Bad Christmas Habits More important than the foods you eat over the festive period are the habits we often pick up. Christmas can be busy, and between the feasting and partying, it can be easy to let oral hygiene slip. Make sure you don’t pick up any bad habits over the holiday season and maintain a good oral health care routine. Brush teeth first thing in the morning to remove plaque. Do this before breakfast, and before opening any Christmas presents! Avoid snacking – try to eat only during mealtimes instead of picking at food throughout the day, otherwise you’re constantly consuming more sugar and not giving your teeth time to recover after eating. Drink water after meals to help wash away any food debris and lingering sugars. Always brush before bed and make sure you’re going to bed with clean teeth. If you’ve brushed your teeth, avoid eating again after, or brush them again before bed to keep food and bacteria from lingering on your teeth overnight. Only drink water after brushing your teeth for the night. Remember to floss! Keeping good hygiene habits is just as important as what you actually eat over the holidays. It’s okay to indulge over Christmas, but always enjoy in moderation for the sake of your smile and your overall health. As always, we’ll be here on reduced hours over the holidays to help with any oral healthcare problems you may have. Find your local clinic here for support with any dental issues over the festive period.

We all already know sugar is bad for our teeth – and as much as we like to think otherwise, unfortunately sugar still counts EVEN during the holidays (we’re sad about it too). But you can’t skip out on an advent calendar! Here’s how to have your chocolate, and eat it too – without your teeth paying the price! Timing Is Everything Advent calendars are only a small amount of chocolate, but since you’re going to be eating it every day for almost a month, the time you decide to open your advent calendar could be the deciding factor between a happy holiday season or dental decline... You (or your children) should try to eat your advent chocolate at least an hour before toothbrushing, either in the morning or the evening. You might think that brushing your teeth straight away is a good idea, but it’s actually the opposite. Sugar softens the enamel of the teeth, and by brushing straight away, you’re also scrubbing away your weakened enamel. Instead, follow your chocolate with a glass of water or a rinse of the mouth to wash away any residual sugars. Another opportune moment for eating your daily advent chocolate is immediately after a meal, either breakfast or dinner. When we eat, it triggers saliva production, which works to neutralise acids in our mouths and protect our teeth through a process called remineralisation. By saving your advent chocolate for after a meal, your teeth have already begun to protect themselves, giving you extra defense against the higher sugar content of chocolate. Choosing an Advent Calendar If you’re running a bit behind this year and haven’t chosen an advent calendar yet, don’t worry! You still have time to make sure you’re choosing the best advent calendar for your teeth. Dark chocolate is your ‘safest’ form of chocolate as it has less sugar content, and a larger concentration of cocoa which is high in antioxidants. Milk chocolate has a significantly higher sugar concentration, but is okay in moderation, especially if you follow our advice for eating chocolate in a way that’s kinder to your teeth. We recommend avoiding white chocolate as it is almost entirely sugar and milk, making it the worst culprit in terms of your teeth. For the best option, however, we advise dodging chocolate all together. Instead of buying a chocolate calendar, choose a calendar with beauty products etc. Why not put a personal twist on your advent calendar by wrapping small items such as pocket money toys, socks, or makeup items, then numbering each parcel? This can be an especially fun game for younger children as you can get creative by hiding the parcels around the house for them to search for. As always, if you have any concerns about your teeth before or during the festive period, come see us and we’ll be happy to help!

We all know that once we lose our baby teeth and our adult teeth grow in, we won’t get any more. We have one smile for life, and that’s it – if our teeth get damaged or we lose a tooth, we don’t get another chance, but how many of us take our teeth for granted? Every day, we all do things that risk damaging our teeth. Some things are obvious, like eating sugar and smoking, but what about smaller habits that we may not even realise we’re doing? Here are some habits which are bad for your oral health that almost everyone is guilty of – even we do a few of them! Chewing Ice – We all love the satisfying crunch of ice after a cold drink on a hot day, but the cold temperature combined with the hardness of ice can cause broken teeth. Even if there’s no immediate visible damage, ice risks causing cracks in your tooth enamel which you can’t see, later leading to increased risk of a cavity or a breakage. To stop yourself from chewing ice, use a straw to remove the likelihood of ice entering your mouth accidentally, or forgo ice in drinks all together if you have real trouble kicking the habit. Biting Nails – Biting your nails is an unconscious habit for most people, you may not even think about doing it until you’ve chewed your way through all of your fingers! Nail biting can however cause serious problems, and not just for your teeth. Severe nail biting can lead to infections around your nails. Your hands also touch a lot throughout the day, and your fingernails gather a lot of grime, meaning all that bacteria and dirt goes right into your mouth – gross! Chronic nail biting can also cause jaw problems and push your teeth out of alignment, which yo0u ,may even need to fix with braces. There’s lots you can do to stop biting your nails. Some recommended methods of stopping include chewing gum or finding other habits to occupy your hands such as arts and crafts. There are also specialist clear nail polishes available (suitable for all genders) that have a sour chemical taste specifically designed to make biting your nails off-putting. Chewing Pens – Much like biting your nails, chewing a pen/pencil is often an unconscious habit that we don’t realise we’re doing. Luckily, the ways to stop biting pens are similar to stopping biting your nails. Try chewing gum, or if you have bought nail polish designed to stop you biting your nails, consider coating your pen tips with the same nail polish to discourage you from biting that too. Using Your Teeth as Tools/ Extra Hands – Using your teeth as a tool or an extra hand comes with a myriad of problems; from bacteria to the risk of damaging your teeth. Before you use your teeth to bite something open or hold something, consider what you’re doing. Is this urgent, or can it wait until you have the proper tools available? Do you need to hold this in your mouth, or can you come back for it? Ask yourself if it’s really worth risking permanent damage to your teeth for the sake of saving a few minutes – chances are, it isn’t!

On 7th October, Zoe’s Place – a hospice in Liverpool that provides palliative and end-of-life care for babies and children under the age of 5 – got the news they would soon have to close their doors for good unless theft could raise sufficient funds to finance a new building in just one month. Since then, the community of Liverpool has joined together to gather the money needed to rescue Zoe’s Place, allowing them to continue their vital work. Major newspaper, The Liverpool Echo have spearheaded the campaign to rescue Zoe’s place from closure. Zoe’s Place has been backed by local celebrities, including comedians, boxers, olympic athletes, and even Steven Gerrard – but the biggest boost to the campaign came from retail giant TJ Morris, the Liverpool-based owners of HomeBargains who pledged 2. 5m to the cause. Seeing the local community band together, our Liverpool practice wanted to help any way we could. With just 2 days left for Zoe’s place to raise £490,000 to reach their funding goals, we decided to donate all profits from teeth whitening treatments and new patient exams towards Zoe’s place. Using the code ‘ZOESPLACE’ at reception when booking in, patients can help us save Zoe’s Place. Follow the story live here. UPDATE: Zoe’s Place have since reached 100% of their funding goals, but their Just Giving page remains open for donations. Any extra money outside of their funding goals will still go towards helping Zoe’s Place continue their work supporting terminally-ill children and their families. We are extremely proud to have done our bit towards helping the people of Liverpool rescue this staple of the local community.

With the delicate state of our climate at present, everyone is doing their bit for the environment. Eco friendly dental supplies are widely available, from bamboo toothbrushes to natural toothpastes – but are environmentally friendly alternatives as good as dental supplies made from traditional materials? We’re here to help you find out... Bamboo Toothbrushes – now widely available in most supermarkets, bamboo toothbrushes are a staple in most bathrooms. Made with a bamboo handle which can be binned with your compost waste unlike a traditional toothbrush, bamboo brushes are a great eco-friendly alternative – and they’re also great for your teeth too! So long as you use a good brushing technique, there’s no reason why a bamboo toothbrush wouldn’t work just as well as a plastic toothbrush, so there’s no reason not to make the switch! One unfortunate concern over bamboo toothbrushes is the nylon bristles, which are plastic and non-recyclable. Whilst there are entirely natural toothbrushes available, be cautious when choosing a brush with natural bristles as some materials like boar bristle are more coarse and can cause damage to your enamel. If in doubt, opt for a brush with a bamboo handle and man-made bristles to be sure you’re protecting your smile as well as the planet, as this will still result in less plastic overall – just remember to remove the plastic bristles before composting your brush! Natural/ DIY Toothpaste – There are many different types of natural toothpastes available with a range of ingredients such as essential oils, but it’s important to remember that not all these ‘healthy’ ingredients are good for your teeth. Active ingredients like charcoal can be very abrasive and have no proven positive effects – in fact, it can cause damage to existing dental work like fillings and crowns. Not all natural toothpastes are created equal, and it’s important to do your research. When selecting a natural toothpaste, make sure that it has a suitable level of fluoride which is key to maintaining good oral health. Many natural toothpastes leave out this crucial ingredient, despite fluoride being a naturally occurring mineral found in nature. Find out how much fluoride you need in our fluoride blog post. If you’re struggling to find a natural toothpaste that also protects your smile, try searching for a refillable toothpaste instead – this will still reduce your plastic waste whilst keeping your smile safe! Silk Floss – Regular flossing is a key part of your oral healthcare routine, essential for maintaining healthy gums, but for eco-conscious users, dental floss made from nylon (a plastic based substance) might leave a sour taste. Eco-friendly dental floss made from silk might be a suitable biodegradable alternative, however it may not be as strong as traditional floss. It may also pose an issue for vegans due to the silk and beeswax used. Whilst the consumer dental industry clearly has a bit further to go to become more eco friendly, there are certainly things we can all be doing to make our bathrooms more eco-friendly. So long as you choose your products carefully, there’s no reason why environmentally friendly dental products shouldn’t be as effective as traditional dental items.

It’s no secret that access to dental care is one of the biggest problems currently facing the UK. Months of covid lockdowns caused many dental practices to shut their doors permanently. The lack of dentists and the backlog of patients waiting for care has led to many people across the UK not seeing a dentist in months, sometimes years. With the cost of living crisis, not everyone can afford a private dental appointment. Some patients have turned to online platforms such as TikTok and YouTube for tutorials to perform their own DIY dentistry. Whilst not all of the hacks you see online are necessarily harmful to your oral health, some risk causing permanent damage to your teeth. Here’s our list of popular hacks to absolutely avoid. Lemon Juice and Salt “toothpaste” – Recipes for at home stain remover might seem tempting to brighten your smile, and they may even work. Users on TikTok have recommended using a combination of lemon juice and salt in place of toothpaste to create a bright white smile, but what their videos don’t show is the catastrophic damage they’re causing to their enamel. Enamel is the thin protective layer that covers your teeth and protects bacteria from entering – it’s like a suit of armour for your smile. When enamel is damaged, it’s gone for good as it doesn’t grow back! The combination of lemon juice and salt is particularly damaging as the acid from the lemon juice weakens the enamel, and the highly abrasive salt scrapes the enamel off, causing irreparable long-term damage. DIY Braces – TikTokers have shown themselves moving their teeth using rubber bands. Whilst some TikTokers have successfully managed to make their smile seem straight quickly, what you can’t see is the damage done to the tooth roots under the surface. Moving teeth might seem simple, but it’s an extremely complicated process that requires careful monitoring by a trained dentist to ensure no damage is caused to the bones, nerves, and blood supply beneath the surface. Even if people have managed to move their own teeth, the teeth will eventually return to their original position without a proper retainer from a dentist. Hydrogen Peroxide Bleaching – Another home tooth whitening method, applying hydrogen peroxide to your teeth is extremely dangerous. Not only can it cause sensitivity, it can also cause burns to the gums and tongue if applied incorrectly. Dentist led teeth whitening is affordable and long lasting, and is a much safer option than risking damaging your smile with harsh chemicals. Filing Teeth – Whilst dentists will shave the teeth for treatments like crowns and veneers, this is done extremely carefully, and dentists are trained to only remove the minimum amount of enamel required for treatment. Using at home methods like nail files, sandpaper, or even dental tools bought online is extremely damaging to your oral health. By filing your own teeth you risk causing irreparable damage to your teeth, allowing bacteria to enter the dentine (the middle of your tooth), causing decay and infections. Over-shaving your teeth can expose nerve endings causing extreme pain. If you want to change the shape of your teeth, see a dentist about cosmetic treatment options like composite bonding. Overall, there are no safe ways to perform dentistry at home. Dental professionals train for years to be able to provide safe and effective treatment, and you can’t learn the same level of knowledge or expect to accomplish the same results from a YouTube tutorial. Whilst we understand it’s difficult to get treatment at present, resorting to DIY dentistry does more harm than good. If you’re looking to get dental treatment but are worried about the cost, we offer a range of treatment options and can offer solutions at various price points, plus we allow patients to spread the cost with finance for up to 5 years. There’s no need to damage your smile for the sake of saving money on private treatment (especially not for cosmetic reasons like whitening) as you will likely need to see a dentist to repair any damage caused, costing you more money in the long term. It’s always safer to see a professional dentist. Call us today to find out how we can help you smile at a manageable cost.

- Categories: Blog
Photogrammetry and other forms of digital measuring and photo scanning have been used for degrades in other fields such as architecture and design, and now it’s making waves in dentistry! We’re excited to announce that we have a brand new photogrammetry scanner that we can use for our full-arch same-day dental implant treatments! But what on earth is photogrammetry, how do dentists use it, and how does it help patients? We’ll answer all of your questions and more in this post. What Is Dental Photogrammetry? Dental photogrammetry technology uses a powerful 4D camera that takes multiple images of the teeth from different angles. This new method of digital scanning allows our implantologists to get an accurate image of the exact location of your newly placed implants. This is used in full-arch implant treatment cases, allowing us to create a super accurate bridgework for your same-day implant treatment. Using your dental photogrammetry scans combined with the intraoral scans taken with our trios scanner, we create a digital 3D model of your teeth whilst you’re in the chair with us. We then use our in-practice 3D printer to create your new teeth whilst you wait! What Are The Applications of Dental Photogrammetry? Photogrammetry in dentistry is used as part of full-arch implant treatment for creating prosthesis (your replacement teeth). Here at Synergy, we use dental photogrammetry technology to increase the accuracy and precision of our full-arch implant treatments, and even make our treatments faster! It also allows us to predict your aesthetic results with greater accuracy. Your new crowns will be created to match your old teeth, ensuring a comfortable fit and a perfect bite pattern - in other words, we make your old smile, but better! This is one of the main benefits of using photogrammetry for dental implants. How Does Photogrammetry Work in Dentistry? Photogrammetry has been used in fields like architecture, archaeology, and design for several years, but has only recently started to be applied to dentistry. Using the principles of photogrammetry, new equipment has been created for dentists to allow the integration of dental photogrammetry in digital dentistry. Using cutting-edge techniques and the latest pioneering equipment, we’re now able to make full-arch implant treatment faster, safer, and more accurate for our patients! Our new dental photogrammetry scanner works by taking a series of images of your implant placement. We attach special scanning flags to your full-arch implants - because of their unique domino design, the computer can use the scanning flags to transfer the exact location of your implants onto your smile design. It’s very similar to how CGI characters in movies and video games are made using motion capture technology, but it’s for your smile instead! We then take an intraoral 3D scan of your soft tissue after the surgery and merge it with your scan we took before your surgery. Our digital smile design software uses all of this information to create a highly accurate 3D digital model of your new teeth! Next, we use our high tech 3D printer to create your new teeth whilst you’re waiting. This process is so fast, we can have it all done in as little as an hour! What Are The Benefits Of Dental Photogrammetry For Implants? Dental photogrammetry is extremely precise - in fact, it’s accurate to the micron! This means that your new teeth are going to fit your mouth perfectly and feel more comfortable. Traditionally, when planning a full-arch dental implant surgery, we need several appointments and must take lots of impressions and scans in order to create your bridgework (the prosthetic arch of teeth). Using digital workflows and dental photogrammetry for oral surgery, we can deliver your final smile in only 3 steps - letting you get back to living your normal life with your new smile as soon as possible! Surgery day. Implants placed and you will leave with a set of temporary fixed teeth. Review appointment in 3 months and a new scan taken to record the healed gum. Have your final permanent fixed teeth fitted and leave with a brand new smile! We make sure that whatever you choose in the try-in phase is replicated exactly, and our milling process creates your new teeth in a higher quality material than your temporary ones, ensuring you have a smile you are happy with for the rest of your life! What Are The Steps Of Implant Treatment With Photogrammetry? Implant treatment with photogrammetry is almost the same process as traditional full-arch same-day implant treatment. But if you’re curious, here’s a step-by-step guide to dental photogrammetry! APPOINTMENT 1: Consultation With Your Implantologist Just like a normal implant consultation, your Implant Surgeon will perform a comprehensive clinical examination of your oral health and your general health to make sure you are suitable for surgery. The surgeon will take CT scans, digital scans and photographs where appropriate. This is your opportunity to ask lots of questions about anything you don’t understand. Your surgeon will then provide you with a full clinical report explaining your treatment. We aim to provide this on the day, but may take up to 48 hours to send this to you via email. Whilst we always use a local anaesthetic for all our surgeries so you don’t feel any pain, we understand that undergoing oral surgery can seem quite scary. If you’re nervous about your treatment, ask our surgeon if they’re able to provide IV sedation during your initial consultation. Conscious sedation dentistry allows you to undergo treatment in a relaxed state without any pain, but still remain awake to answer questions and respond to instructions. Make sure to ask about IV sedation during your first consultation so that our surgeon can conduct an assessment to ensure you’re suitable. With our latest technology, we will design your new teeth digitally where you will be able to see how the final teeth will look. APPOINTMENT 2: Consent Appointment We understand that undergoing implant treatment is a big decision, and you need time to think about it. At this appointment, you will be given the opportunity to ask questions. This is also more like a validation appointment where the surgeon will advise you if you are suitable for the treatment or not. You will be shown your new teeth design digitally and how they look on your face and in your mouth. Once you are happy with this, your surgery day will be booked. Once you’ve decided to go ahead with treatment, we’ll ask you to sign a consent form to say that you understand the steps of your treatment and are happy to go ahead. We’ll arrange any finance options with you at this stage. APPOINTMENT 3: Implant Surgery This is where we place your dental implants - the screws in your jawbone that hold your new teeth in place. Before your treatment, both yourself and the implant team will be draped up to ensure the environment is sterile. We will then administer local anaesthetic. If you feel any pain during the treatment, tell your dentist. Using a surgical guide, your dentist will place your implants in the perfect position in your jaw. Thanks to our extremely precise scanning methods, we’re able to use a keyhole surgery technique, meaning we only need to make a small incision for each implant placed. This minimises pain post-surgery. The surgery process doesn’t usually take long, but depending on the complexity of your case it may take longer. On average, full-arch implant surgery takes around 2 hours per jaw and will usually be booked for a whole morning or afternoon. It’s recommended that you keep the whole day free to give yourself time to prepare for your surgery. If you’re arranging time off work for your dental implant surgery, it’s a good idea to take a few days off afterwards to allow your body to rest - though many people say they feel fine just a few hours after surgery! Dental Photogrammetry In the same appointment, once your dentist has finished the implant placement surgery, we will use our specialist photogrammetry scanner to create a 3D model of your mouth and build your new smile in our digital software. During your dental photogrammetry scan, all you will need to do is sit still in the dental chair whilst your dentist does all the work! We may use cheek retractors to make the placement of your implants more visible. This is entirely painless - in fact, your photogrammetry scan takes less than a minute! Using the measurements from your scan, our dental photogrammetry software designs your new smile accurately to the micron to perfectly fit your mouth and your implant placement. Then, it’s time to relax for a little whilst we print your new smile with our in-house 3D printing technology. In as little as 1 hour, we’ll call you back to the chair to have your new teeth fitted - then you can go home and enjoy your new smile! FINAL APPOINTMENT: Permanent Fit Whilst your dental implants heal and fuse with your jawbone, we’ll keep checking in with you to make sure your implants are healing properly. We will call you in for a few interim appointments for our dentists to check your implants and make sure everything is healing correctly. Healing normally takes around 3 months but can sometimes take a little bit longer. It’s important to wait to fit your final teeth until your dentist is happy you have healed properly from your surgery, otherwise your implants can be damaged by putting excessive pressure on them too soon. Whilst your implants are healing, your dentist will work to design your final teeth. Your final teeth will look like your temporary teeth you have already been wearing, but will be made from a better, stronger material. This is your opportunity to tell your dentist anything you want changing about your teeth so that they can implement it in the final design. You can ask for changes to the shape, size and colour of the teeth. When your final teeth are ready, we’ll fit them in your mouth and check that you’re happy with them - then you can go out and start living life with your brand new smile! FAQs Dental Photogrammetry vs Traditional Dental Impressions; Which Is Better? Dental photogrammetry offers massive improvements in accuracy compared to dental impressions. As impressions are not as accurate, they also offer less predictable aesthetic results sometimes resulting in your dentist needing to adjust your temporary teeth. Impression trays can also be quite messy and can sometimes be slightly uncomfortable for the patient, though your dentist may still use impression trays as part of your treatment as it offers your dentist even more information about your mouth structure. This additional data set can help make your surgery and your prosthesis even more accurate! So whilst photogrammetry is undoubtedly the better of the two, traditional impressions are still very useful and may still be used in your treatment in addition to photogrammetry. How Can We Use Dental Photogrammetry For Accurate Oral Measurements? Photogrammetry produces highly accurate oral measurements using domino-shaped scanning flags. These scanning flags are attached to your dental implants. The photogrammetry scanner maps the dots on these domino-shaped flags and translates that information onto the soft-tissue scans we took of your mouth prior to surgery. This tells us exactly where the dental implants are placed in your mouth, making it easier for us to create accurate replacement teeth that match your mouth perfectly. What Does Dental Photogrammetry Cost? The cost of photogrammetry is included in your full-arch same-day implant treatment. There’s no additional fee for photogrammetry!

Have you been refused dental implant treatment elsewhere? Find out how we can help with Customised Subperiosteal Dental Implants! Being told you can’t have dental implants due to jawbone density can be upsetting, especially if you have been hoping to replace missing teeth for a long time. Thanks to our new treatment called Subperiosteal dental implants, we’re able to reinforce the damaged jaw with a customised titanium substructure which sits under the gumline, allowing us to attach dental implants. In this article, we explain every detail of this revolutionary treatment that’s offering hope to people across the country that have been told they can’t have dental implants! What Are Customised Subperiosteal Dental Implants? Subperiosteal dental implants are designed for people who can’t have traditional dental implants due to severe atrophy of the jawbone. Subperiosteal dental implants were created decades ago, but due to a lack of technology available at the time, treatment was difficult and complicated. Now, with the growth of digital dentistry technology, this advanced technique has seen a rise in popularity, offering hope for people who have been told they are unsuitable for fixed full-arch dental implant treatment. Traditional dental implants are called endosteal implants, and are commonly used for full-arch same-day implants and for single dental implant treatments. They work by inserting a “screw” into your jawbone which acts as a foundation for a “post” that holds your crowns in place. If you don't have enough jawbone, or your bone is weak or thin, then there is nothing for the dental implant to hold on to, and your dental implants will fail. This is usually why people are rejected for traditional dental implant treatment. Previously, zygomatic dental implants would be the go-to treatment for people who are unable to have endosteal implants. Zygomatic dental implants are named after the zygomatic bone - your cheekbone. Whilst it might sound complicated, zygomatic dental implants are just an extra long “screw” that anchors into your cheekbone instead of your jawbone. Because they attach to the cheekbone instead of the jaw, they cannot be used to replace the bottom row of teeth, only the top. Zygomatic implants come with their own range of complications, which is why we have decided to focus on developing subperiosteal dental implants - the cutting-edge treatment that was far ahead of its time! Subperiosteal dental implants offer an alternative to endosteal and zygomatics. They are made from a titanium framework that is custom-made to fit each patient’s unique jaw shape. This titanium framework sits on the jawbone, just underneath the gum line, and acts as a replacement for the jawbone, allowing for posts to be attached to hold the crowns in place. Think of it as being like scaffolding for your jawbone that holds your new teeth in place without putting strain on your bone. Steps Of Treatment: The Subperiosteal Implant Procedure APPOINTMENT 1: Consultation The first step is a thorough examination of your mouth and a series of scans to understand your overall oral health. This information will be crucial for your dentist to create your custom made subperiosteal dental implants to fit your jaw perfectly! APPOINTMENT 2: Surgery Once the lab has created and delivered your titanium framework, we’ll be able to perform the surgery! Surgery is performed in a sterile environment under local anaesthetic. Whilst surgery is painless, it’s normal to feel some pressure during certain steps of the surgical process. Once your implants are placed, we’ll fit you with a set of temporary teeth so you leave with a smile! APPOINTMENTS 3 & 4: Review We’ll keep checking in with you whilst you are healing around 2 weeks after your surgery, then again at 6 weeks. It will take some time for your body to heal after surgery, usually around 3 months, though this can be longer for some patients depending on factors such as age, medications, and your body’s natural healing ability. Once your dentist is satisfied your implants are healed appropriately, we can fit your final teeth. APPOINTMENT 5: Final Fit Once your implants are healed, we can attach your final teeth. Your dentist will design your teeth to your preferences - you may have a celebrity whose teeth you’d like to copy, or you might have pictures of your old smile which you’d like to recreate. Your dentist will work with you to choose a size, shape, and shade of your teeth to suit your face, giving you a smile you’ll love. Once your new smile is fitted, all that’s left is to enjoy your beautiful new teeth! What Are The Benefits Of Subperiosteal Dental Implants? No need for bone grafting Works for both the upper and lower jaw Less invasive and less risks than zygomatic implants Suitable for people who have severe atrophy of the jawbone Customised to perfectly fit the shape of your jawbone Can last for 10-15 years with proper care What Are The Negatives Of Subperiosteal Dental Implants? More complicated procedure than endosteal implants. As the procedure is more complicated, they may cost more than other implant types. Longer recovery time compared to endosteal implants. Why Would Someone Be Rejected For Traditional Endosteal Dental Implants? There are a number of reasons why someone might not be able to have dental implants (endosteal implants). Some of these causes are: Poor bone structure/ atrophied jawbone Gum disease Teeth grinding/ clenching (bruxism) Various health conditions Poor oral hygiene What Causes Severe Atrophy Of The Jawbone? Atrophy of the jawbone can be caused by several factors: Missing teeth - the roots of your teeth help maintain the height and thickness of your jawbone. Without your teeth, your jawbone may weaken. Dentures - if you wear a denture regularly for a long time (especially one that doesn’t quite fit) your denture can begin to rub against your gums and the jawbone beneath. This can speed up bone loss. Gum disease/periodontal disease - gum disease is where your gums begin to deteriorate. If left untreated, the bacteria can spread and start to eat away at your jawbone. Jaw problems - jaw problems like TMD (popping and grinding at the joint) or trauma to the jaw caused by injury or contact sports can cause damage to the jawbone. If your jawbone is too badly damaged, it may make implant treatment difficult. Medical conditions - certain medical conditions and bone disorders can damage the jawbone, but so can certain medications. Some medications may cause a weakening of the bones. Make sure you tell your dentist about any underlying medical issues and list all medications you may be taking or have taken for the long-term in the past. Smoking - smoking wreaks havoc on your mouth and damages everything from your teeth to the soft tissue. Quitting smoking will help to slow down jawbone atrophy. Poor overall health - we take a holistic view of oral care. If your overall health is poor, your oral health will be too. Regular exercise plus the right vitamins and minerals are key to your body being healthy. It’s especially important to get calcium, protein, and vitamin D to maintain the strength of your bones. What Are The Differences Between Endosteal Implants, Subperiosteal Implants, and Zygomatic Implants? Whilst the dental terminology might sound complicated, the differences in these dental implants are easy to understand. The primary difference is where they are placed in relation to the jawbone. Endosteal implants - these are the most common dental implants. They are placed directly into the jawbone. In cases where the patient has some minor jawbone atrophy, endosteal implants will usually be used with a bone graft to repair the damaged jawbone. Zygomatic implants - when the bone is too badly damaged and endosteal implants will not work even with a bone graft, some dentists might decide zygomatics are the best choice. Zygomatics are extra long as they need to be screwed into the cheekbone, and as such, can only replace teeth on the upper jaw. They are more invasive and require longer recovery. They also carry the risk of more complications. Subperiosteal implants - this newly rediscovered treatment is an alternative to zygomatics. Our labs create a custom-made subperiosteal implant form titanium, which sits on your jawbone, under your gums. Because this framework is designed to match the shape of your jawbone, it ensures a tight and stable fit. This titanium framework is what we attach your crowns to. Unlike zygomatics, this treatment is less invasive, carries less risk of complications, and can be used on both the upper and lower jawbone. When Would A Patient Be Recommended Subperiosteal Implants? You might be wondering, “Are subperiosteal dental implants right for me? ” In cases where a patient suffers from severe atrophy of the jawbone, your dentist might recommend subperiosteal implants. As this is a more complicated procedure, a dentist would only recommend this if an endosteal implant treatment with bone grafting would be impossible. Only a qualified dentist can tell you if you need subperiosteal dental implants. Who Can Perform Subperiosteal Dental Implants? Finding a subperiosteal dental implant specialist may be difficult, as it is a very niche area of dentistry, and not many dentists are trained to provide this cutting-edge treatment. At Synergy, we want to help as many patients as possible, which is why our dentists have undertaken specialist training to provide this treatment. Are Dental Implants Available On The NHS? Dental implants are considered a cosmetic procedure and are not usually covered by the NHS, though they may cover the costs in cases where the patient cannot wear dentures due to damage to the face and mouth. This could be caused by accidents and injury or from medical procedures such as the removal of oral cancer. NHS dentistry services may vary by area, so if you believe you may qualify for dental implant treatment, enquire with your local NHS provider. How Long Does It Take To Recover After Subperiosteal Dental Implant Surgery? Subperiosteal implant recovery time can vary from patient to patient, and can be influenced by a number of factors such as age, pain sensitivity, and existing medical issues. Post-surgery bleeding usually goes away within a couple of hours, but can sometimes last for up to 3 days. Complete healing, where your implants fuse to your jawbone, usually takes around 3 months but can take longer. Make sure you follow the post-surgery care instructions from your dentist to minimise pain and promote faster healing. How Much Do Subperiosteal Dental Implants Cost? The cost of subperiosteal dental implants in the UK can vary, and usually costs anywhere between £15,000 to £25,000. As subperiosteal implants are custom made for your mouth, the price will be determined by your dentist on a case by case basis.

After nearly 10 years in business, local clinic Synergy dental was due for a makeover! After months on ongoing refurbishments, the new clinic was finally unveiled during a re-launching event last Saturday to officially mark the opening of the newly redesigned practice. The VIP event was attended by the Mayor as well as brother/sister influencer duo, Jake and Eloise Mitchell. Anyone who has been for an appointment at Synergy Dental Clinic Preston may have noticed a few changes in the clinic over recent months. From ripping up the flooring to removing all of the chairs, the local clinic has had a total overhaul. Whilst the clinic has continued to serve patients throughout the refurbishment process, Saturday the 31st of August marked the end of the month and the start of the new practice. The busy VIP event was attended by Preston Mayor Philip Crowe and his Mayoress, who had the honour of officially opening the newly designed clinic with the ribbon cutting ceremony. Also in attendance were several popular influencers, including travel and lifestyle influencer siblings Jake and Eloise Mitchell (@itsjakemitchell and @eloisemofficial) who boast 374K and 197K followers on Instagram respectively. When designing the new waiting areas, it was important for head dentist, Dr. Ali Altaf, that the clinic felt like home for patients. This involved replacing the clinical looking waiting benches and white walls with soft creamy toned chairs and wood panelling. The most standout feature sits in the heart of the clinic. Where there used to be an office style watercooler, there is now a large fireplace, adding a soft, living room feel to the waiting area. The idea was to create a space that no longer felt like a clinical waiting room, but felt like a home whilst still retaining a sense of professionalism and luxury. All of this has been done with the purpose of reducing patient anxiety and creating a soothing environment. Speaking on the new clinic, the Mayor said he was impressed with the new facilities. He and Dr. Ali discussed the importance of how our working environments affect our mental health, raising concerns over the high suicide rates associated with the dental profession. Presently, dentistry has one of the highest suicide rates among any profession in the UK due to increasing pressure on dentists to meet targets. The physical environments in which we work have a massive impact on our mental health. Factors such as light, temperature, and even colour can impact how we feel at work. Synergy has focussed on creating a warm, open, and welcoming environment with lots of natural light so that everyone who steps in into the clinic, both patients and staff, feel at ease. Eloise Mitchell (@eloisemofficial on Instagram), who had Invisalign at Synergy dental commented, “The whole team at Synergy, everyone’s been amazing from the start! ” She continued, “Everyone here is super lovely. ” Synergy’s CEO, Dr. Zuber Bagasi said, “This is part of a larger plan of continual investment in our clinics. One by one, we’re in the process of remodelling each clinic to create a more comfortable patient experience. Patients in different areas have different needs, and it’s important to us that we work with our head dentists and partners to ensure each clinic is unique and meets the needs of their patients. "Next up on the roster is the relocation of our main headquarters in Bolton - which will be moving to a much larger building and will include a state of the art laboratory and clinic providing same day smile makeovers and oral surgery, so keep an eye on our social media @synergydentalclinic for more news on that coming soon! ” During his speech prior to the ribbon cutting, Dr. Ali said he was excited to continue to serve patients in the newly designed practice, “hopefully for another 10 years! ”

A DENTAL patient unable to get a diagnosis for two years was finally told he had a condition called burning mouth syndrome. Clive Armitage eventually had his answer from Synergy Dental Clinic, on Chestergate, Macclesfield. He had first tried to get to the bottom of his symptoms - including a metallic taste and discomfort - in 2022. But three different dentists and a GP were unable to, one even removed a healthy tooth incorrectly thinking this was the source of his problem. Clive finally got a diagnosis from Synergy’s Doctor Anshul Jairath and was referred to a specialist and his condition, linked to stress, is now being treated. He said: “The first time I walked in we had a chat, I sat in the chair and Dr Jairath said ‘I think I know what this is‘. “Nobody, including my doctor, knew about this. Why? I knew there were hospital dentists, but I had no idea about oral medicine, nobody mentioned it until I came here. “The dental profession has changed dramatically since I was a child. ” Clive, who is in his 60s, can now get prescriptions for medication such as numbing agents which lessen the sensation of burning and take steps to manage triggering stress levels. Burning mouth syndrome is a condition that primarily affects patients over the age of 50 and commonly women rather than men. It is characterised by a metallic or bitter taste accompanied by a burning sensation on the tongue, gums, lips, or roof of the mouth and usually worsens throughout the day. A Synergy spokesperson said: “When you see a dentist or any medical professional, you’re going to them in the good faith that they will do anything to help you. “We’re so glad that Dr. AJ’s fast actions helped Mr Armitage, at the end of the day, helping patients is the whole reason we became dentists in the first place. ”

> What is fluoride? Learn about this natural compound's role in promoting dental health and addressing past controversies.

- Categories: Blog
Fluoride has been the subject of debate recently after the government plans announced earlier in the year to encourage water fluoridation in effort to combat the dentistry crisis that has gripped the UK for years. With so much media misinformation on the subject, this blog post will cut through the myths and conspiracy theories to answer once and for all, “What is fluoride, really, and how does it help my teeth? ” What Is Fluoride? Fluoride is a naturally occurring compound created when the element fluorine mixes with minerals from rocks. Fluoride is found all over the Earth in our food, water, soil, and even our own bones! It’s completely natural, safe, and harmless despite what some conspiracy theories online would have you believe. Even without adding fluoride to our water, we all naturally consume fluoride every day through our food. Why Do People Avoid Fluoride? Whilst fluoride is harmless in the right doses, too much can sometimes have negative effects. Overuse of fluoride can cause dental fluorosis, which can cause white lines or flecks on the teeth. This doesn’t mean fluoride is bad for you - it takes a lot of fluoride over-consumption to cause any problems - but with misinformation spreading easily online, worries over fluoride have spread, leading many people to be against schemes like national water fluoridation. In countries like the USA, fluoride has been added to the water supply for over 70 years, with no scientific evidence of any adverse effects on the population. There is, however, decades of research which proves that fluoride reduces tooth decay, and that water fluoridation in combination with the right type of fluoride toothpaste can reduce dental problems. What Are the Health Benefits of Fluoride? Fluoride helps make our tooth enamel stronger. Through a process called remineralisation, our tooth enamel can self-repair with the minerals in our saliva, strengthening itself. Once our tooth enamel is gone, it’s gone for good. Fluoride helps protect our tooth enamel from damage, reducing tooth decay. How Much Fluoride Do I Need Daily? Correct Fluoride intake is especially important for children, whose teeth are still developing. Most toothpastes contain fluoride, however, different age groups need different amounts of fluoride. Your toothpaste should say how much fluoride it contains in ppm (parts per million) on the tube and on the box. If it does not say how much fluoride it contains, switch your toothpaste for something which contains the right level of fluoride. Recommended fluoride by age: Under 3 - at least 1000 ppm Children 3 to 6 - between 1000 ppm and 1350 ppm Adults and children over 6 - between 1350 ppm and 1500 ppm Remember that you should not be rinsing your mouth clean after brushing your teeth - otherwise you’re washing away all the fluoride from your teeth, and not getting any of the benefits of brushing with flouride. How Can I Increase My Fluoride Intake? Most places add fluoride to the water supply, however, if you’re concerned about your fluoride levels, contact your water supplier and ask them how much fluoride is added to your water. If your water isn’t fluoridated, you can choose to take a fluoride supplement to add the necessary fluoride to your diet. Alternatively, your dentist may provide a fluoride gel or a high fluoride toothpaste if they think you have a low fluoride intake which is damaging your teeth. For children, your dentist may offer a fluoride varnish which strengthens the enamel and smooths the surface of the teeth, reducing places plaque can cling, making brushing easier. This fluoride varnish is harmless and usually flavoured to make the treatment more enjoyable for your child. Treatment should be reapplied every 6 months to protect your child’s teeth. We offer fluoride varnish for children as well as a range of options and advice to help adults who are concerned about the fluoride intake.

> How are veneers and crowns different? How do I know if I need veneers or crowns?
- Published: 2024-08-19

- Categories: Blog
Veneers and crowns are somewhat similar treatments that often get confused for each other. Both are cosmetic treatments that involve shaving the teeth and covering them with a replacement, often made from porcelain, but that’s where the similarities end. Today, we’re going to discuss just what veneers and crowns are, how they’re different, and which one you should choose for your dental treatment. What are veneers? Veneers are very thin shells made of porcelain designed to act as a cover for your teeth, letting you change the shape and shade of your smile. Think of them as being a bit like false nails. During the veneers fitting process, our expert dentists will shave a very small amount of your enamel to make space for the porcelain to fit smoothly against your gum line. This is essential to make sure that bacteria can’t get in between your veneer and your teeth underneath. Veneers come in a range of different levels of porcelain quality. Our Zirconia/E-max quality porcelain looks just like natural teeth with shade variation, so nobody can tell the difference between your veneers and your natural smile. Veneers are extremely strong and can last for years to come with proper maintenance and care. What are crowns? Crowns are much thicker than veneers and are designed to repair a broken or damaged tooth. Crowns come in a variety of materials, including metals such as silver and gold. Silver and gold crowns are very strong and hard-wearing, though they have an obvious unnatural appearance making them best for the back of the mouth. Porcelain crowns are used for the front of the mouth, and like veneers, there are different levels of porcelain quality that help make your crown indistinguishable from your natural teeth. Crowns are also extremely strong. With the right care, they can last between 20 to 30 years! Crown treatment, however, is much more aggressive than the treatment for veneers as it requires shaving away a large portion of the natural tooth. How are veneers and crowns different? The main difference between veneers and crowns is the purpose they were designed for. Both treatments are extremely durable, and both are able to enhance the appearance of your smile, but crowns are made specifically as a restorative treatment for damaged teeth, whilst veneers are designed as a cosmetic treatment. That’s why our Synergy dentists will steer patients with healthy teeth towards veneers rather than crowns, in order to preserve as much of the natural tooth as possible. In patients with a lot of damaged teeth, our dentists will usually recommend crown treatments instead, to remove the damaged portions of the tooth. Once the damaged tooth is removed, the crowns protect the rest of the tooth from further damage. For people who get dental treatment abroad, veneers and crowns are sometimes used interchangeably as other countries do not have dental regulations as strict as the UK. This results in healthy teeth being overshaved, damaging the tooth and causing problems later down the line. Whilst we always recommend that you have treatment in the UK and thoroughly research your dentist before committing to any treatments, if you are planning to travel abroad for veneers, check that you will in fact, have veneers treatment with minimal shaving of the teeth rather than the more aggressive crowns procedure. How do I know if I need veneers or crowns? If you’re looking just to improve the appearance of your smile, veneers are likely to be the better option for you. If you have damaged teeth, crowns will remove the damaged sections of your teeth and replace them. The only way to know which treatment you need is to see a qualified dentist and have a thorough examination of your mouth and your overall oral health. Our Synergy experts offer free* smile makeover consultations, so you can find out what treatment you need without any risks. Book in with one of our Synergy experts using the “Book Now” button above. *Our smile makeover consultations are free, but we request a £30 holding deposit to retain your appointment time. After your appointment we will deduct this from your total treatment cost, or repay it if you decide not to go ahead with treatment.

Invisalign is known far and wide as the revolutionary clear aligners brand, represented by the likes of Billie Eilish, Justin Bieber, and even tennis star, Serena Williams! But just what is Invisalign? Who is it for, and what can it fix? We answer all your burning questions about Invisalign in this week’s article! What Is Invisalign? Invisalign is a clear aligners system designed to straighten teeth. It uses a series of clear, almost invisible plastic aligners to apply gentle pressure to shift your teeth into your desired position. Each new aligner moves your teeth closer and closer to where you want them to be. Who Is Invisalign For? Invisalign is for anyone who wants to straighten their teeth or close gaps. They’re especially popular with teenagers who are worried about the appearance of metal braces because they can’t be seen. Invisalign only works in minor to moderate cases. Some, more complex cases may still require metal braces. What Problems Can Be Fixed By Invisalign? Invisalign can fix: Gaps Overcrowding Overbite Underbite Open bite Straighter teeth that aren’t quite perfect How Do I Clean My Invisalign Clear Aligners? You can clean your Invisalign by gently brushing them with a soft toothbrush. Deep clean your aligners using the Invisalign cleaning crystals from their store. Do not use any harsh chemicals on your aligners, and follow your dentist’s instructions to keep your aligners from yellowing. When Do I Wear My Invisalign? For your Invisalign to be effective, you’ll need to wear your aligners for around 23 hours a day. You should wear your aligners even when you sleep, and only take your aligners out to eat or to brush your teeth and clean your aligners. How Long Does Invisalign Take? Invialign takes around 6 months on average but can take longer. The more severe your case is, the longer it will take and the more aligners you will need. Most people start to feel a difference in just 3 months, with noticeable results within 6 months. If you’re hoping to get your teeth straightened for a big event, like your wedding, it’s a good idea to ask us about teeth straightening at least a year in advance so we can make sure you have the perfect smile for your special occasion! How Do I Keep My Teeth From Moving Back After Invisalign? After doing all that work to straighten your smile, you don’t want your teeth to move back into their old position. Keep your teeth straight by wearing your Vivera retainers. Most people will only have to wear their retainers overnight, but your dentist can give you more options to suit your needs. If you’re not sure if Invisalign is right for you, you can book a consultation with one of our dentists to find out. Or, if you’d like to come along to one of our open days, you can follow us on social media to find out when our next Invisalign open day event is taking place.

> If you have missing teeth, you might have already heard of dental implants - but you probably have a lot of questions. In this article, we aim to answer the most common questions we hear about dental implants.

What Are Dental Implants? Dental implants are an advanced form of dental prosthesis - in other words, they're made to replace missing teeth! They’re different from dentures because they’re usually fixed. During dental implant treatment, your dentist will insert a hollow titanium “screw” called an implant into your jawbone. This screw acts like your natural tooth root and holds a “post” (called an abutment) in place for your new teeth to be attached. They can replace one tooth, a few missing teeth together or even a whole jaw of teeth - this is called full-arch implant treatment. Who Are Dental Implants For? Dental implants are for anyone who struggles due to missing teeth. Missing teeth can make it harder for you to speak and chew, but they can also make you feel self-conscious about your smile. At Synergy, we’ve seen hundreds of patients who have lost confidence due to missing teeth and have suffered damage to their mental health as a result. Some people may choose to have dental implants because they find a denture uncomfortable or are unable to wear a denture due to damage to their mouth. Other people choose dental implants because they have a more natural appearance compared to a denture. Almost everyone who has missing teeth can benefit from dental implants. It’s very rare that a patient is ineligible for dental implants. In some cases, where the patient’s jawbone has been severely damaged, there is nothing for the implant to hold on to, meaning we will have to find an alternate solution to help replace your missing teeth. We also do not provide dental implants to under 18s as their jawbone may still be developing and the implant will shift with the bone growth, causing damage. We will always wait until a patient is over 18 if they need dental implants. In any situation where we cannot help you using dental implants, we will find another way to help you get your smile confidence back! What Are The Different Types Of Dental Implants? There are many different brands of dental implants, and just like anything else, different brands have different uses and different levels of quality. At Synergy, we supply two brands: Straumann and Osteem. Osteem is a Korean brand. As the 5th best brand in the world they are more budget-friendly through still extremely high quality. Straumann are a Swiss brand and are the highest rated dental implants in the world due to their superior levels of testing. Straumann are pioneers in the field and are dedicated to continual improvement through new research into dental implantology. We primarily use Straumann implants. Because we use Straumann so often, they give us a discount which we pass on to our patients, meaning we can offer top implants at bottom prices! We’ve even won awards from Straumann recognising us as the highest supplier of implants in the North West! What Are The Steps Of Dental Implant Treatment? Dental implant treatment generally consists of a few simple steps. First, we do a thorough exam of your mouth and your oral health to check you’re suitable for implants. When you’re happy with your treatment options, we plan out your treatment using a series of scans to get the perfect placement of your implants. Next, we perform your implant surgery in a sterile environment, and fit your temporary teeth so you can leave with a smile the same day! Whilst your implants are fusing with your jawbone, we design your final teeth with you. Finally, we fit your permanent smile! Do Dental Implants Hurt? Dental implant surgery may sound scary, but it usually doesn’t hurt! We use a local anaesthetic to make the area feel numb. Most people don’t feel anything during surgery, but if you’re worried about pain levels, we can provide IV sedation. How Much Do Dental Implants Cost In The UK? Dental implants cost between £1000 for a single implant to £30,000 per jaw for a full arch of implants. The price of implants depends on the number of implants needed and the level of work that must be done. Other factors like a bone graft and sedation may drive the price up. At Synergy, we offer package deals on multiple implants and even have 0% finance options to make implant treatment more affordable. Can I Get Dental Implants On The NHS? Dental implants are generally considered a cosmetic procedure, so the NHS does not usually cover them, though they may make an exception in cases where the patient cannot wear a denture due to discomfort or damage to the mouth caused by trauma or medical procedures such as removal of oral cancer. For most people, the only option to get dental implants is to go private. Here at Synergy, we have multiple options on dental implants to suit everyone's needs and budget, including 0% finance options to let you spread the cost.

For the past few months, we’ve been offering a range of smile makeover package deals. We originally planned for these offers to run during summer, but they’ve been so popular that we’ve decided to extend them into August! We’ve deliberately designed our pricing to be competitive with countries like Turkey, meaning you can have an affordable smile makeover right here in the UK without needing to worry about passports or airport stress! On top of that, you can take advantage of our 0% finance options! We have a range of package deals on offer, including special offers on veneers, crowns, Invisalign, implants and composite bonding. Porcelain Veneers/Crowns We want our patients to have the best, which is why we’re offering a package deal across our Zirconia and E-Max crowns and veneers for patients seeking treatment on multiple teeth. Veneers and crowns are durable and last for years, making them a great option for people who want a low maintenance way to beautify their smile. E-max is the highest quality porcelain available on the market, balancing superior strength with aesthetic beauty due to the subtle shade variations that mimic the natural appearance of teeth. Plus, the more teeth you have treated, the more money you’ll save! If you choose to have both your top and bottom jaw treated (20 teeth) you could save a massive £5000! Invisalign You’d be hard pressed to find someone who doesn’t know what Invisalign is. The revolutionary clear aligner system became infamous for being the best invisible braces available. They’ve gained popularity with everyone, from teenagers, adults, and even several celebrities due to their discreet appearance, ease of cleaning, and spectacular results. Invisalign works just as well as traditional braces, and even works better in some cases. It can be used to tackle a wide range of teeth misalignments, so most people can benefit from Invisalign treatment. We’ve been providing Invisalign for years, and we’re the highest providers of Invisalign in the North West, so you know you’re getting your smile straightened by an expert. With our package offers, you could save as much as £2000! Composite Bonding Composite bonding lets us choose the size, shape, and shade of your teeth to create the beautiful smile you've always wanted. Unlike veneers or crowns, composite bonding doesn’t require any drilling or shaving of the teeth. It’s completely painless and fully reversible, making this a great option for people who want to change their smile, but don't want their natural teeth to be damaged. We use a special technique called Nano-Hybrid composite bonding. This uses a Nano-Hybrid bonding material which is stronger and longer lasting than the traditional composite bonding materials used by our competitors. Just like with our veneers and crowns, the more you buy, the more you save! When getting 20 teeth treated, you could save as much as £1500! Dental Implants Dental implants are a solution for anyone who feels conscious about missing teeth or has struggled due to an ill-fitting denture and just wants a more secure solution. Dental implants work by replicating the natural tooth root to create a strong anchor for a crown or bridge to attach to. There are several brands of dental implants, but Straumann is undoubtedly the best in the world. Powered by superior scientific research, every Straumann implant undergoes rigorous testing before being approved for use on patients. We’re the highest providers of Straumann implants in the North West. Because we buy so many implants from them, Straumann gives us a discount. Instead of pocketing the profits, we pass this saving on to our patients! Check out our smile makeover package deals to find out how much you could save, or give us a call to book in with one of our friendly dentists, and we’ll be able to tell you what you need to make your smile sparkle!

Just two weeks after the election, our new Prime Minister, Sir Keir Starmer has begun to settle into his role. There are many problems facing the new PM, but one of the main concerns for a lot of people is the difficulty of getting a dentist. Dr. Zuber Bagasi, owner of Synergy Dental Group and head of Synergy's Blackpool branch, looks into what Labour's plans are and if they will work. Labour’s dentistry rescue plan in their election manifesto includes promises to: Tackle the immediate crisis with a rescue plan to provide 700,000 more urgent dental appointments Recruit new dentists to areas that need them most. Reform the dental contract, with a shift to focusing on prevention and the retention of NHS dentists. Introduce a supervised tooth-brushing scheme for 3 to 5-year-olds, targeting the areas of highest need. Initially, Dr. Bagasi praised the plan to introduce a supervised toothbrushing scheme for 3 to 5 year olds, though noted that it was very similar to a point the Conservative party raised in their own dentistry rescue plan rolled out earlier in the year. As tooth decay is the leading cause of general anaesthetic hospital referral for children under 10, our government needs to intervene for the sake of our children's teeth. But Dr. Bagasi noted that, “Just toothbrushing alone isn’t enough - these kids have to have access to dentists and they need to be seen regularly. ” Speaking on the plan to recruit new dentists, Dr. Bagasi comments that, “Within the Lanacshire and Greater Manchester areas, only a handful of dentists will likely be recruited. Of course more dentists will help, but this is a drop in the ocean compared to the level of need in the area. ” Attempting to recruit new dentists is a vital step in preserving our dental care system, but there is no guarantee that newly recruited dentists will be willing to stay in a broken NHS system, which is why the point of contract reform is likely the most important one on the list. Speaking on contract reform, Dr. Bagasi says, “The cost of running a practice keeps going up, but the dentistry budget hasn’t increased. ” He called for changes to be made to the dental contract to allow dentists to be fairly compensated for taking on NHS work. “Under the current contract, dentists are paid a set rate for treatments like fillings, meaning they’re paid the same for 2 fillings or 6 and don’t get compensated for the extra time or materials. Once they meet their NHS patient targets, they don’t get more funding to take on more patients - this is why so many dentists have closed down, and others are having to go private just to keep their doors open. Labour are unclear what changes they plan to make to the dentistry contract, but paying dentists properly for NHS work, fixing targets, and changing the way NHS dentistry is managed will go a long way towards starting to repair the damage done to the dental service. ” Speaking overall on the state of dentistry, Dr. Bagasi says, “There’s a lot of issues facing dentistry right now and they won’t be solved overnight. Labour has a lot to do. “I’ve always campaigned for improving dental care. In the past, I’ve worked with Mark Logan MP and Yasmin Qureshi MP to represent local interests, and I plan to keep working with the local government to help get the hard working people of my local community access to dental care. “Part of my ethos when setting up Synergy dental was to put people and planet over profits, which is why I’ve found ways to offer private dentistry at a similar price to the NHS banding system - so that people who are struggling to access a dentist through the NHS can still afford to see a dentist on a private basis. ”

Composite bonding, sometimes called edge bonding or composite veneers, is a method of changing the shape, size and shade of the teeth in a way that is minimally invasive and causes as little damage to your natural teeth as possible - plus, it’s completely painless! It’s a fully reversible process, meaning if you’re unhappy with your results, you can always go back to your natural teeth! It’s much more affordable compared to treatments like veneers and crowns, and can last several years with proper care! What is Composite Bonding? Composite bonding is a way for dentists to change the shape, size, and shape of your teeth. It involves using a white composite material, similar to a filling, and adding it to the teeth. Composite bonding can cover everything, from chips and cracks to minor staining. Here at Synergy, we use a special composite material called Nano-Hybrid Composite. This Nano-Hybrid material is stronger and longer lasting than traditional composite materials, meaning our patients benefit from having a more beautiful smile, for longer. Because composite bonding involves adding to your existing teeth, it’s a far less invasive procedure than other cosmetic treatments such as veneers or crowns. Composite bonding is fast and painless with no need for drilling or injections. Most patients can complete their composite bonding treatment in as little as 2 visits! What Are The Steps of Composite Bonding Treatment? 1). During your first appointment, your dentist will assess your smile to make sure you are suitable for composite bonding. They will then take scans of your mouth to build a digital image of your future smile. 2). If you are happy with your smile design, your dentist will ask you to sign consent that you're happy with the treatment, and arrange any finance options with you - we offer 0% finance, meaning everyone can get the smile they want at a price they can afford. Then you can go ahead and book your appointment! 3). During your appointment, your dentist will prepare your teeth - this process is called etching, and it helps the composite material stick to your tooth enamel. Then, your dentist will apply the composite material to each tooth one at a time, to shape each individual tooth to look exactly how you want it to. Your dentist may use a guide called a stent to help with this process and ensure your teeth match your smile design perfectly! Once the composite has been applied and cured with a UV light, your dentist will do the finishing touches by hand then polish your new smile to a gorgeous natural finish. All of this is completely painless. 4). Go home and enjoy your new smile! What Can Composite Bonding Be Used To Treat? Composite bonding can be used to solve a range of problems. Not only can it make your teeth appear whiter, it can also be used to fill gaps as an alternative to teeth straightening by making the teeth larger in order to fill spaces. Composite bonding can also repair cracks in the teeth, fix holes, and cover up discoloured areas. Composite bonding is popular as an additional treatment to Invisalign teeth straightening, to give your teeth a full smile makeover! Undergoing Invisalign before composite bonding helps your teeth to appear straighter - a bit like laying a good foundation for a building. What Are The Benefits Of Composite Bonding? Composite bonding has a range of benefits. 1). It is versatile and can treat a range of dental issues, as well as being used for cosmetic improvement. 2). Composite bonding is minimally invasive. There’s no need for drilling or needles, and your existing teeth remain undamaged underneath. 3). It’s fully reversible, meaning you can go back to your natural teeth anytime! 4). Composite bonding offers fast results. Many patients can finish their composite bonding treatment in as little as 2 appointments, and the actual treatment itself only takes a morning or an afternoon. 5). It’s painless, making this a suitable cosmetic procedure for people with high pain sensitivity or a phobia of the dentist. Because the treatment is minimally invasive, you won’t need to take time off work the next day due to discomfort - though your teeth may feel a little strange whilst you get used to the new shape! What Are the Negatives Of Composite Bonding? Composite bonding is an excellent treatment, but there are some things to be wary of. 1). Composite bonding is durable, but not as strong as porcelain veneers - meaning it's not suitable for people who grind or clench their teeth. 2). Composite bonding can stain, meaning you will need to be cautious when drinking things like coffee and wine. 3). Composite bonding can’t make the same massive changes as veneers or crowns - it’s still your natural teeth, after all. So, if you’re hoping to alter your smile to something completely different to your current teeth, composite bonding may not cut it. Instead, composite is used to enhance the beauty of your current smile. Just like all other dental treatments, composite bonding requires some work and maintenance on your part in order to keep looking beautiful. Your dentist will advise you on how best to care for your composite. The quality of your composite bonding also depends on the skill of your dentist. Make sure that you are doing your research before choosing a dentist for your composite bonding - ask about their qualifications and their experience, and ask to see a portfolio of their previous work to ensure you’re happy with their skills. Here at Synergy, our dentists are expertly trained. Many of our dentists have learned their skills through our award winning SynTrain courses and are UK trained - so you know you’re in expert hands. You can get in touch about composite bonding using the book now button!

Teeth whitening or “bleaching” is a common cosmetic procedure, but what actually is it? How does it work, and what should you know before going ahead with whitening treatment? What Is Teeth Whitening? Teeth whitening is a process of gradually changing the colour of the teeth. It works by slowly lightening the enamel with a bleaching agent - usually a type of peroxide. Teeth whitening is useful for those of us who have stained teeth or are unhappy with the natural white chase of our teeth and wish for a brighter, whiter smile. Tooth whitening is commonly available over the counter in the form of strips or trays, or under guidance from your dentist. What Are The Steps of Tooth Whitening? Whitening is a popular treatment because it is fast and simple. Many people can have whitening treatment in just 1 or 2 appointments with the dentist. The first appointment is to check your eligibility for treatment and take the necessary scans to create your whitening trays. Once you have your whitening trays, you need to wear them with the whitening agent! Your dentist will give you exact instructions, but generally, you’ll put a small amount of the whitening gel for each tooth, then put the trays in overnight for a minimum of 8 hours. Afterwards, you’ll have another appointment where you’ll talk to your dentist about your results. If you’re happy with the results, your dentist will guide you on how to keep your smile white! What Is Better: At-Home Tooth Whitening or At A Dentist? Whilst marketed as a cheap way to brighten your teeth, the truth is that at-home whitening kits could cost you more in the long run. At-home treatments like whitening strips are strictly controlled in the UK, and are limited to a low percentage of peroxide - because they do not contain enough peroxide, whitening strips might make your teeth look temporarily brighter, but will not make your teeth white in the long-term. But what about whitening kits that make use of trays that you wear on your teeth (usually overnight), are they any better? Whitening kits are not only ineffective compared to teeth whitening by a registered dentist, they’re also much riskier. Due to being readily available without the need for a checkup from a dentist, over the counter whitening can be accessed by anyone. If you suffer from gum-disease or other dental problems, tooth whitening can cause these problems to get worse. Because over the counter tooth whitening isn’t guided by a dentist, the whitening trays have not been designed to fit your mouth shape, and there is a danger that the whitening agent can spill out onto your tongue and gums, and can even cause burns on the soft-tissue of your mouth. When you get tooth whitening with one of our dentists, we perform a thorough check of your oral health to check you’re suitable for tooth whitening. We then create custom whitening trays to fit your teeth perfectly, ensuring a tight seal against your teeth. This helps the whitening gel to permeate the tooth enamel more effectively, and also ensures the whitening trays are comfortable and won’t leak. Other places, such as beauty salons might offer tooth whitening - but these treatments are not usually performed by licensed dentists, and legally shouldn’t be offered by someone who isn’t qualified. Make sure you do your research to check the person performing your treatment is listed as a dental professional on the GDC register. It’s always better to get your teeth whitened by a dentist. Not only is it safer for you and your oral health, it’s also a lot more likely to come with effective results. Who Can’t Have Tooth Whitening? Children under the age of 18 cannot have tooth whitening - though exemptions may be made when the teeth have darkened due to certain medications or trauma to the teeth when it is affecting the patient’s mental health. Some people may also be unsuitable for tooth whitening if they have oral health problems such as gum disease, or certain medical conditions. That’s why it’s important to see your dentist before undergoing tooth whitening. Make sure you are honest with your dentist about any health problems as this could make your tooth whitening less effective. If you have veneers, crowns, or composite bonding, tooth whitening will not work on the areas of your mouth that you’ve had the cosmetic treatments on previously. This is because tooth whitening works by lightening the enamel - as veneers/ crowns don’t have enamel, and composite bonding covers your enamel, it’s impossible for whitening to work on your teeth, but it can affect your natural teeth. It’s common for many patients to use whitening alongside other cosmetic treatments like veneers and bonding to whiten the whole smile and make your natural teeth match the rest of your smile. Will Whitening Make My Teeth Sensitive? Whitening has a reputation for making your teeth sensitive, but as technology has improved, this has become less of an issue and there are ways to counter the sensitivity that comes with tooth whitening. Sensitivity is usually short-term, and disappears within a few days of ending treatment, but if you are struggling with sensitivity after whitening, come and see us! What Whitening Can I Have At A Synergy Dental Clinic? At Synergy, we offer 2 different brands of tooth whitening: Enlighten, and Prestige. Enlighten is one of the leading whitening brands, and guarantees a B1 shade for almost all patients. Prestige is our own brand of whitening, and is free for all patients on SynPlan! If you want to know about our teeth whitening, you can book in with one of our dentists today by giving us a call or booking online.

How Do I Care for Baby Teeth and Gums? Recently, we’ve been talking a lot about how pregnancy affects our teeth and our oral health, but what about afterwards when your new bundle of joy is finally here? This week, we’ll be looking at how best to care for your baby’s precious teeth and gums and answering all your questions. How Old Should I Start Brushing My Baby’s Teeth? You should start to brush your baby’s teeth as soon as their first tooth begins to erupt from the gumline. How Do I Brush My Baby’s Teeth? First, sit your baby on your knee with their head resting on your chest - the closeness will help your child to feel relaxed during the toothbrushing process. You should brush baby teeth using a small, soft toothbrush and a tiny smear of toothpaste. It might be tough going at first, as your child may not like the feeling of having their teeth brushed. Keep gradually brushing your child’s teeth more often until they get used to the sensation and allow you to brush their teeth twice daily. After teeth brushing in the evening, remember to only give your child plain water or breast milk. Do not give them any foods with high sugar content which will sit on their teeth overnight and cause tooth decay. When Should My Baby Start Seeing A Dentist? Your baby should start seeing a dentist as soon as their first tooth appears, but it is often best to get your child used to the dentist before that. Bring your child with you to your own dental appointments and sit them on your knee so they get used to the sights, smells, and sounds in a dental office. When children come to the dentist for their own appointments, they usually get upset because it is a new, strange place - but if they have been to the dentist already with you, they know there’s nothing to be scared of and their appointment will be much easier for both you and baby! Children are eligible for free dental care on the NHS, and mothers for the first year after birth. If you are having trouble accessing an NHS dentist, our SynPlan monthly payment plan allows parents to register 2 children on their plan free of charge. Will A Dummy Affect My Child’s Teeth? Dummies are completely fine for a child up to the age of 12 months, after which point they may begin to affect your child’s oral development, as their teeth will move to make space for the dummy, resulting in an open bite. Other activities such as sucking their thumb and biting their nails in older children can also cause their teeth to grow incorrectly and should be discouraged. What High-Sugar Foods Should I Avoid Giving My Baby? We all want to make sure our children are getting the best diet possible. When you’re blessed with a child who loves fruit, it makes life easier - but certain foods may be damaging your child’s teeth. Limit fruits and fruit juices to being part of a meal, when saliva production is already triggered and will help to protect your child’s teeth from harmful sugar content. Stick to natural, organic fruits and limit juices to only one glass (150ml) per day as part of your child’s 5 a day. You should be wary of processed foods like fruit pouches and fruit bars, as these often contain high levels of processed sugar. Learn to read food labels and understand what is in your food and your baby’s food to avoid sugars. You can also cut down on sugar intake by replacing sweets as a reward for good behaviour and asking friends and family to do the same. Instead of rewarding toddlers and young children with sweets, cakes, or biscuits, reward them with fun activities, stickers, colouring crayons etc. As always, if you have any concerns about your teeth or your baby’s teeth, you can call us or visit your local Synergy practice.

One lucky man is finally on his way to a perfect smile thanks to beating hundreds of people to win a competition. Last month Synergy Dental in Leyland offered one lucky person the chance to regain their confidence along with the ability to smile, speak and chew better with free dental implants. The dental practice which has clinics all over including Preston, Blackpool, Blackburn and Leyland, was then inundated with submissions. Impressed by all the stories, one stood out to them in the shape of family man Lee who was nominated by one of his 11 children. Kirsty said how her dad has ‘more kids than teeth’ and how he has never had anything for himself as everything he has goes to caring for his children, his wife Lisa, or anyone else in need including rescue dogs! A surprised Lee added: “I’m very shocked. It’s been years since I have had a full set of teeth. ” A spokesperson for the dental surgery said: “Lee really stood out to us, but we heard so many incredible stories from so many people. “We chose him because we were so moved by his daughter Kirsty’s love for him in her nomination form. She told us about how Lee gives everything to his family and his local community – we felt like it was time for Lee to get something back. “Over the coming months, we’ll be seeing a lot more of Lee and his family as we work together with Dr. Ali Altaf to give Lee his smile back. ” They added: “To everyone who nominated, a big thank you! We’re sorry to everyone who wasn’t selected on this occasion – but that doesn’t mean you won’t be chosen for future opportunities “We wanted to make sure everyone got a little something, even if we weren’t able to select everyone on this occasion, so everyone who sent in a nomination will be getting a message from us soon – watch your inboxes! ”

- Categories: Blog
On April 12th we opened up a new section of our website for our patients to nominate someone they knew who struggled to smile, speak, and chew. What Was Synergy Dental's Implant Nomination Opportunity About? Through our social media, we invited our patients and people who weren’t currently Synergy patients to nominate a loved one, friend, colleague, or even themselves to receive free dental implant treatment from us using the new form on our website. On the form, we asked our followers and members of our local community to tell us about the loved one they were nominating (or themselves) and explain how dental implants would impact their life. At the time, we just wanted to give something back to our local community as a thank you for supporting us for so many years. We wanted to choose someone whose life would be completely transformed by dental implants - but who wouldn’t usually be able to get them. Within less than an hour of the implant nominations being announced on our socials, we were flooded with calls and messages from people desperate to know how to apply. We even had the local newspapers involved! Check out our news stories in the LEP, Blackpool Gazette, and Burnley Express! What Were Some Of The Stories We Heard From Our Nominees? We heard so many moving stories from our patients - which made it extremely difficult to choose. Here are some of the stories we heard: From a young woman - "Hello I would really like to nominate myself I am 29 years old and I have lost a lot of teeth it's made me very depressed and don't like my smile I would love this chance to win this implant opportunity it would make a big change in my life I have a big denture in just now and really uncomfortable I can't eat properly I can't smile I hope you can read my story and would love the chance to be nominated would make massive difference in my life. " From a mother nominating her son who lost his teeth after an accident - " is in his early thirties and is not currently in work. He always had a ready smile and is a handsome fella. Well, until he slipped in the ice in February and split his lip right up to his nose and lost some of his teeth. At the hospital some were replaced. We can’t get him on a dentist list as no one has space for new patents for adults. I paid for him to get an assessment through a private dentist who told us that the teeth need removing as they were not put in right. The price for all the work is not affordable so he is going about his days with jagged and broken teeth, the ones he has left. His self esteem and confidence has just about gone. Please put a lovely smile back on face. " A husband nominating his wife - "i would like to nominate my beautiful wife for this amazing once in a lifetime prize she has spent 4 years with no teeth she cant eat properly she is constantly in pain as her gums swell and she haven't smiled for years and tbh she hasn't really left the house as she has zero confidence even though i tell her how beautiful she is every day where she used to be the life and sole of the party now she's just sad and never smiles this would be a dream come true for her and give me back my confident wife she's a selfless wife and a amazing mum to our 2 boys first stop would be for a big steak just so i could watch her finally eat and enjoy a meal thank you for reading. " A wife nominating her husband - "These new teeth will make a whole new purpose for his living he has 2 children 1 nearly 2 and 1 7 and never had a smiling picture with any of them, he hates interacting with people because of his teeth and people judge him all the time he always in a lot of pain due to his teeth being the way they are and very upsetting watching his mental health deteriorate. " Daughter nominating her father - "My dad is in a really bad place mentally. He has suffered with his teeth for a long time but it's progressively got worse. He wears a pallet but it causes him immense problems and it's got the point where he rarely leaves his flat. The past two years his mental health has deteriorated and he's a very worrying place at the minute. He will no longer come to family gatherings and rarely sees his family due to it. He has tried to get help from his dentist but has been told there is no option other than to pay. He was diagnosed with COPD last year and has had to stop working so he unfortunately just cannot afford it. Having his teeth done would give him his life back, it breaks my heart to see him in such a bad way and it's really affecting me now as I have to constantly try and pick him up which is causing me difficulty and great stress. He lives alone and he's getting to a point where if he doesn't go out and get his life back I fear what his life will look like. He really needs his confidence back to get him mentally stable and I would absolutely love nothing more than to help him but I can't financially afford it. I would be forever grateful and forever in your debt and favour if he could be given this opportunity . " A woman with a severe dental phobia - "I’m nominating myself. A nice smile is something I’ve wanted and dreamed of for many years. I hate my teeth but have dental phobia. I need lots of work which I’ve left due to being so frightened. I require root canals, extraction, basil uplift/bone graft, veneers/crowns and implants. I have gaps and part dentures which don’t fit. My teeth are yellow so I never smile and have no confidence in myself. A few months ago I nearly went to Turkey due to not being able to afford it in the UK but I had a huge panic attack so had to withdraw. Upon conclusion, treatment abroad is no longer an option for me but for now I just dream of the reality of beautiful teeth. " Who Did We Choose? Let us introduce you to Lee! Lee was nominated by his adoptive eldest daughter, Kirsty – one of 11 children! In her nomination, Kirsty told us how her dad has more kids than teeth! She also told us how her dad has never had anything for himself. Everything he has goes to caring for his children, his wife Lisa, or anyone else in need – even rescue dogs! We saw how much Lee always put all of his efforts into giving to others, and felt that it was time for him to get something back. Over the coming months, we’ll be seeing a lot more of Lee and his family as we work together with Dr. Ali Altaf to give Lee his smile back! Make sure to follow our social media to keep updated with Lee’s story. To everyone who nominated, a big thank you! We’re sorry to everyone who wasn’t selected on this occasion – but that doesn’t mean you won’t be chosen for future opportunities. Stay following our page to be the first to find out about discounts and any future opportunities for nominations for treatment.

A Blackpool mum was outraged when she heard it could take two years before her little boy could get treatment for his painful gum abcess. Louise Palmer, of Tyldesley Road, noticed that her four year old son, Yah-Wayne, was in agony. When she booked into the Synergy Dental Practice, on Central Drive, to have one of her own teeth removed, she took along her son too, hoping they could see him a couple of weeks later. She was shocked and angry when she heard it would not be two weeks – it could be up to two years. Louise, who is expecting another child, said: “It cannot be right that a little child in agony like my son has to wait two years to be treated. “Something has gone badly wrong with the dental situation in this country. “I was told other children were having to wait just as long. “When I was his age I would never have had to wait anywhere near as long as that. “I cannot afford to go private otherwise I would not think twice. I’d make sure he was seen as soon as possible. ” Louise was told the delay was mainly down to the fact that Jah-Wayne would need to go under anaesthetic before having surgery to remove the abscess. And that meant having to wait for a hospital bed for that to take place. At the Synergy Dental Practice, spokesman Caitlyn Jones, said: “It is such a shame that children are having to wait so long to get treatment. “The biggest waiting list for children between six and 10 at the moment is the one to get a hospital bed for general anaesthetic for dental treatment. “Some people may think it is just down to dentists being greedy and abandoning the NHS for private practice, but that’s not the case. “We are as frustrated about this as anyone else. “There are a number of factors to the delays. “One is that the Covid lockdown held things back and created a longer queue than normal. “Another factor is that there is not enough funding for NHS dentistry. “The Government is starting to introduce support to increase appointments but whether it will be effective remains to be seen. ” She added that Synergy had introduced a payment plan, in which parents paid £10 a month, which allowed for more regular check-ups and cleaning which prevented dental issues getting out of hand. It even allowed for free treatment for two children to parents who joined it. Source: The Gazette

> Learn about dental treatments during pregnancy: what's safe, what to avoid, and how it can affect your baby's health.
- Published: 2024-05-20

- Categories: Blog
During pregnancy, you might be worried about getting dental treatment in case it affects your baby. Whilst there are some dental treatments that can be hazardous to a foetus, what’s far more dangerous to your health and by extension, your baby’s, is to ignore any developing dental problems. It’s important to tell your dentist if you are pregnant or trying to conceive, as this can have an effect on what dental treatments are safe for you. In this article, we will discuss what dental treatments are safe and which dental treatments to avoid before pregnancy, during pregnancy, and after. Should I See The Dentist When I’m Pregnant? If you are planning for a baby, it’s a good idea for both you and your partner to visit the dentist. You should plan to get any major dental work done before getting pregnant, as pregnancy can affect what dental procedures you are able to have. Not only that, but gum disease has been linked to fertility. In women, gum disease may make it more difficult to get pregnant, and in men can cause poor sperm health. There’s also some evidence that people with gum disease may be more likely to be affected by premature birth, giving birth to a low weight baby, and by gestational diabetes (a condition where some women develop diabetes during pregnancy. This usually goes away shortly after birth). With so many risks associated with gum disease and dental problems during pregnancy, it’s best to make sure that both your partner's oral health and your own is perfect. You should continue to get regular check-ups during the period where you are trying to conceive, during pregnancy, and for the first year after giving birth. Are Metal (Amalgam) Fillings Safe During Pregnancy? Amalgam fillings are believed by many to be unsafe as they contain small amounts of mercury - but the truth is that the amount of mercury found in an amalgam filling is minimal compared to the amount of mercury we are already exposed to in the environment. That being said, as there are concerns that mercury can be passed through you to your baby, it’s advised not to get an amalgam filling during pregnancy. If you already have an amalgam filling, there’s nothing to worry about, you don’t need to get it removed just because you’re pregnant. If you need a filling and are planning to get pregnant, you should ask your dentist if amalgam fillings are appropriate for you. Can I Have an Oral X-Ray If I’m Pregnant? Whilst oral x-rays are generally safe for pregnant people as the radiation is concentrated in the oral area and avoids the abdomen, many dentists and patients wish to avoid oral x-rays during pregnancy, especially in the first trimester, due to the risks associated with radiation exposure for foetuses. Oral x-rays will usually only be conducted during pregnancy in an emergency situation. Can I Have Emergency Dental Treatment During Pregnancy? Emergency dental treatment should be conducted as soon as possible, even if you are pregnant or trying to conceive. Since most emergency procedures such as root canal or extractions (getting a tooth pulled out) may require anaesthetic or x-rays, your dentist may advise you to wait until your second trimester. Can I Have Cosmetic Treatments and Braces Whilst Pregnant? Non-essential dental work like composite bonding, veneers, whitening, and other purely cosmetic procedures should ideally be scheduled before pregnancy or avoided until after giving birth. Whilst these procedures generally don’t pose a threat to your health or your baby’s health, it is better to avoid putting your body through any more discomfort than necessary during pregnancy. If you’re currently undergoing alignment treatment through traditional braces or Invisalign, there’s no need to stop just because you are pregnant - you should continue your treatment as normal. In conclusion... As always, you know your body best. If there’s something you’re unsure of with your oral health at any time, but especially when you are pregnant, our dentists are always happy to help. Sources: Bupadental. com. au. (2024).

> Discover crucial tips for maintaining optimal dental health throughout pregnancy. Learn how to address common issues like bleeding gums and morning sickness, and ensure access to necessary dental care during this transformative period.

Uncover essential tips for safeguarding your dental well-being during pregnancy. From managing bleeding gums to accessing dental care, empower yourself with knowledge for a healthy smile throughout this journey.
During pregnancy, you’re likely to be experiencing a lot of surprising changes if this is your first child. Even if you’ve had children before, you might experience new things during subsequent pregnancies. In all the anticipation, planning, stress, and joy of welcoming a new baby, you might not be thinking about something as small as your teeth. Here are some of the surprising things that can happen to your teeth during and after pregnancy, and how to care for your oral health during this incredible time. Why am I Having Bleeding Gums During Pregnancy? Bleeding gums are commonly noticed during pregnancy, and is called pregnancy gingivitis, whilst it might be alarming to find blood in your mouth, small bleeding is generally nothing to worry about. Due to the increased oestrogen and other hormones your body produces during pregnancy, your gums are likely to get swollen and inflamed, meaning your gums may bleed more easily. It’s important to brush your teeth, even if it causes bleeding and discomfort, to avoid pregnancy gingivitis developing fully into gum disease. You can care for bleeding gums by making sure to brush twice daily. Use a small-headed soft bristled toothbrush as it will be gentler on your gums. Make sure you are brushing the whole tooth all the way down to the gumline, and follow up with dental floss or an interdental brush to remove any stuck food particles between the teeth. Avoid alcohol based mouthwashes. It may be beneficial to rinse with saltwater as it is a natural disinfectant - you can make a saltwater wash by stirring a teaspoon of salt into warm water. Why am I Noticing Lumps In My Mouth? These red lumps, often called pregnancy tumours might sound scary, but they’re often not cancerous. Red lumps form on the gums, usually in between teeth, as a result of plaque during pregnancy. If you’re having trouble brushing, you may also develop these so-called “pregnancy tumours”. They might be tender and bleed easily, but they usually go away on their own after giving birth. If you are worried, it is always better to seek advice from your dentist. What Should I Do After Having Morning Sickness? After morning sickness, it’s best to wait 30 minutes before brushing your teeth. You will probably want to brush your teeth right away to get rid of the feeling of vomit in your mouth, but doing this will damage your teeth. When we vomit, we also regurgitate stomach acid. By brushing your teeth straight away, you’re scrubbing those acids deeper into the surface of your teeth and damaging your already weakened enamel. Instead, use a mouthwash or add ¼ a teaspoon of baking soda to your saltwater mouth rinse, then rinse again with plain water to help neutralise the acids. If you really can’t wait to brush, at the very least you should rinse your mouth with water before brushing to help wash some of the acids off of your teeth. When Should I Ask a Dentist For Help with Dental Care During Pregnancy? During pregnancy, it’s important to keep on top of your overall health and wellbeing for the sake of yourself and your baby. You shouldn’t dismiss any health concerns you have, or feel as if you’re “wasting a doctor’s time”. Your health is paramount, and you should always bring concerns to the attention of your GP or your dentist for specialist oral advice. Do I Get Free Dental Care When Pregnant? During pregnancy and for 1 year after birth, you are entitled to free dental care on the NHS. If you already have an NHS dentist, but you pay for treatment, you will need to apply for a maternity exemption certificate to get free treatment. Alternatively, if you’ve already had a baby within the last 12 months, your baby’s birth certificate should be sufficient (check with your dental practice). After 12 months, you will return to paying for treatment, but your child will still be eligible for free NHS care so long as they are 18 or under and in full-time education. We understand that it’s very difficult to access NHS dentistry at the moment, which is why we’ve created our affordable dental payment plan, SynPlan. Through SynPlan, you’ll receive 2 examinations per year, plus 2 hygiene appointments. On top of that, we allow every registered adult to add 2 children to their plan for free, so you can continue to care for your own smile and your child’s teeth for years to come. Sources: nhs. uk.

The entire clinic has been redesigned. A Leyland dental surgery has been relaunched – offering the latest digital technology and a subscription-style plan to help more people access help. Since Dr Karim Rachidi took over as head dentist and joint owner of Synergy Dental Clinic in Thurston Road, a year ago, he has prioritised creating positive patient experiences. This has led to the entire clinic being redesigned internally, with new waiting areas for patients, as well as updated surgery rooms. A spokesman for the surgery said: “This has all been done with the aim of making patients feel more comfortable when they come to our practice. As dentists, we recognise that a fear of visiting the dentist is a barrier for many patients – we don’t want anyone to neglect their oral health because they are afraid to see the dentist, which is why we’ve strived to make our facility as welcoming as possible. ” On Thursday, South Ribble’s Mayor and Mayoress attended the reopening ceremony. They spent some time looking at the latest digital dentistry technology – which allows patients to benefit from faster and more accurate treatment – as well as dental access. Dr. Rachidi is now offering SynPlan – a monthly payment option similar to a subscription that gives patients access to check-ups and x-rays twice a year, plus a discount on private treatment. The aim of this is to make private dental care affordable for those who are currently having difficulty accessing NHS services. Source: lep. co. uk

Do you know someone who struggles to smile, speak, or chew? Between the 12th of April and the 26th of April, Synergy Dental Group are offering patients the chance to nominate themselves or someone they know who needs dental implant treatment. You still have one week left to get nominating! Last Friday on April 12th, Synergy Dental launched a new tab on their website allowing patients to nominate themselves or someone they know to be in with an opportunity to receive free dental implant treatment. Dental implant treatment is a solution for missing teeth and is the highest form of dental prosthetic currently available on the market. It’s different to denture because dental implant treatment is permanent. A dental implant consists of two parts, a screw and a post. The screw part replicates the natural tooth root, and is surgically implanted into the jaw using advanced digital dentistry techniques. Once this screw has been placed, the dentist then places the post inside it and attaches the replacement teeth – making it indistinguishable from your natural teeth. In the short time since the nomination period opened, Synergy Dental have been flooded with queries. A spokesperson for the company said, “In the run up to the nomination period opening, we even had people contacting us on Instagram at 4 am! It’s great to se ehow eager everyone is. The response we’ve had shows the need for improved access to dental care in our communities – something we’ve been actively campaigning for. We hope that through this nomination system, we’ll be able to give one person dental care that they need. ” If you or someone you know could benefit from implant treatment, you still have a week left! You can nominate on their website.

19th April 2024 by Synergy Dental Clinic Dental implant treatment - you’ve probably heard about it. If you have, then you’ll know it's one of the most highly regarded forms of dental prosthesis available on the market. Dental implants are a great solution for missing teeth due to the way they are screwed into the jawbone. This acts as a replacement for the natural tooth root, allowing our dental implant surgeons to attach a crown or bridge. Since the 12th of April, we’ve had a new section of our website to allow patients to nominate a friend, family member, or even themselves. We will choose one patient to receive dental implant treatment on us. Why Are Synergy Giving Away Implant Treatment? Whilst this treatment is revolutionary, due to the high level of skill required and the cost of material used, the price of dental implant treatment can be quite high - in fact, Synergy is one of the cheapest clinics for dental implant treatments due to our partnership with Straumann. As we fit so many implants so regularly, we get discounts from Straumann for buying in high quantities. Instead of increasing our profit margins, we pass that saving on to our patients. Unfortunately, even at our affordable prices, many people still can’t manage the cost of implant treatment - and the NHS do not currently cover the cost. This means that there are members of our community who could benefit from implants, but can’t get them due to their budget. We wanted to find a way to give back to the communities that have supported Synergy for so many years and have helped us grow over time. We decided to offer dental implant treatment to one patient on us as a way to show our appreciation and give our thanks. As dentists, we see how missing teeth can damage a person’s confidence. It can make it hard to speak, smile, and chew. We’ve also seen how dental implants can fix that problem and change a person’s life for the better! How do I Take Advantage of This Offer? It’s simple! Head on over to our nominations page HERE and make sure you’ve followed all the rules: Follow us on Instagram (we’ll be checking! ) Comment and like THIS post! Share the post on your stories. Lastly, nominate with the form on our website! The nominations close on the 26th of April, so make sure you move quickly! Based on the nominations, we’ll choose someone who we think really deserves dental implants - someone whose life will change! So what are you waiting for? Get nominating today! Maybe we’ll choose you...

Do you know someone who struggles to smile, speak or chew? A dental surgery is offering one lucky person the chance to regain their confidence along with the ability to smile, speak and chew better with free dental implants. From Friday, April 12, Synergy Dental which has clinics all over including Preston, Blackpool, Blackburn and Leyland, nominations will be open for patients and non patients to tell their story and nominate someone they know who is in desperate need of dental implants. Implant treatment is one of the most highly advanced forms of dental prosthetics. They’re different from dentures because they’re permanent and they replicate the natural tooth root – they behave and look just like real teeth, giving patients who have lost confidence due to tooth loss a new lease on life. Whilst it’s revolutionary, it’s also a very expensive treatment – one that the NHS does not cover. A spokesperson for Synergy Dental said: “We wanted to find a way to give back to the local communities that have supported us for so many years, which is why over the next few weeks, we are open to nominations from our patients for someone who they think needs dental implants. “We will then choose one patient to receive dental implants on us. “They don’t have to already be a patient of ours. We’re open to everyone across the North West. “Change their life today! Tell us their story and we’ll choose a patient to get dental implants completely for free! It can be a friend, relative, or colleague – anyone you know. You can even nominate yourself! ” Dental implants have been proven to bolster quality of life. Not only do they play a vital role in restoring facial structure, speech, and chewing ability, they can also give a patient the confidence to speak in public, to eat at restaurants, and to smile again. ” The webpage will have space for patients to tell the clinic everything about their nominee such as what they’re like, how their current dental problems affect them daily, and how dental implants will improve their life. ” The spokesperson added: “We’ll read every nomination, and we’ll choose someone who will really have their life improved through dental implant treatment. “Once nominations are open, it’ll be announced on Instagram. ” To nominate from Friday, April 12, click HERE.

NHS dentistry has been in crisis for years due to underfunding and has been worsened by the backlog caused by clinic closures during lockdown, leaving many patients unable to access a dentist, but changes are beginning to come. The Current Situation Last week, we talked about the current state of dentistry. At present, UK dentistry faces a crisis. Only 1 dentist out of 5 are currently taking on NHS patients, meaning many people are unable to find a dentist. In some cases, the public have even resorted to removing their own teeth with household objects like pliers. As world leaders in the medical field, it’s unacceptable that this is happening in a country like ours. Our leaders have recognised this, and for the first time since 1984, the dentist act is being changed! Our government has implemented new plans to provide dental care to the nation by patrolling underserved areas with dental vans, creating the new ‘Smile for Life’ initiative, and growing the workforce so more dentists are available. Here at Synergy, we’re ready to help make these plans a reality. What are Synergy Doing to Help? Growing the workforce is an important step towards making dental care more accessible to everyone. Right now, there are thousands of talented dentists from overseas who are unable to see patients because they are waiting for GDC exams. These are qualified, highly experienced dental practitioners who are being held back due to red tape. Under the new government guidance, the GDC (General Dental Council) has been given powers to allow overseas dentists to register in the UK under supervision on a provisional licence, allowing them to see patients, making dentistry immediately available to more people as soon as the consultation period ends in June. To help overseas dentists to get into roles where they can help patients, we have partnered with The Graduate Bridge, a new company which acts like a recruitment agency, but even better, because they don’t just get dentists jobs, they help them understand the GDC registration process and pass their exams to become fully-fledged UK dentists. Another way we are helping to grow the workforce is through our partnerships with local universities, shaping the curriculum to mould the excellent dentists of tomorrow. We don’t just want to make more dentists though, we want to improve the dentists that are already practising. Our SynTrain Academy allows qualified dentists to study for extra post-graduate qualifications in areas like implants, invisalign, and composite bonding. Our in-person courses include a mentorship in our practices, allowing dentists to access live patients under the supervision of our mentors, meaning they can confidently use their new skills straight away as soon as they finish the course. All of this helps us to work within the new guidance set out by the government to improve dentistry. At Synergy, we think that the new changes from the government are a great start, but that’s all they are... a start. If we are going to end the current crisis facing dentistry, much more needs to be done. We have a long track record of working with Mark Logan MP on a range of community projects. Our CEO, Dr. Zuber Bagasi has worked with Mark to improve Youth Services in the Bolton area and improve loneliness for the elderly post-lockdown. Just a few weeks ago, Mark visited our headquarters to chat with Zuber about the new changes to dentistry, and how we can work together to improve the lives of people in the community. We’re not just stopping with Mark Logan MP though! Over the coming weeks, we have meetings scheduled with Yasmin Qureshi MP, the Chair for Dentistry and Oral health for the All Political Party Group. How Can I Help as a Patient? Just like we have done, you can get in touch with your local MP too! Tell your MP your concerns about dentistry, they will then take those concerns to parliament and share your voice in the House of Commons. The more of us who lobby our MPs, the more chances we have to be heard. Your opinion matters, and you can make a difference! Join us in this fight for access to better dental care for all. You can find out who your MP is and contact them here.

NHS dentistry has been in crisis for years due to underfunding and has been worsened by the backlog caused by clinic closures during lockdown, leaving many patients unable to access a dentist, but changes are beginning to come. The State of Dentistry Last month, when St Paul’s Dental Practice opened in Bristol, hundreds of people queued for hours just in the hopes of securing an NHS dentist. The images from that day took the dentistry crisis that has plagued patients for years from an abstract to an unignorable reality. At present in the UK, 4 of 5 dentists are unable to take NHS dentistry. This isn’t because dentists have suddenly gotten greedy and decided to go private - it is because the dentists themselves cannot afford the cost of treating NHS patients. You yourself have likely felt the pinch of rising prices, higher energy costs and rising gas bills, and dentists are no different. The price of consumables has risen by 10k per year for the average dental practice, and many dentists are still struggling to recover losses caused by being closed during the pandemic. To top it off, the £3bn dental budget has not been increased to account for inflation, meaning dentists are paying more costs, but still getting the same amount of money allocated. On top of that, since Brexit and covid, many migrant dentists have decided to move back to their countries of origin, leaving a gap in the UK workforce. This means that even if a dental clinic does have the capacity to treat patients, they may not have a dentist available to treat them. Tooth decay is currently the leading cause of hospitalisation between children aged 6 to 10 years old. It is inexcusable that a world-leading country for healthcare such as ours currently has children suffering due to completely preventable dental problems. Thankfully, our government has finally recognised this and Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has implemented a plan to save our NHS dentists. What are the Government’s Plans for NHS Dentistry? The new plans for NHS dentistry consist of: Giving dentists a new patient payment between £15 and £50 for taking on new NHS Smile for life initiative to help parents learn how to care for baby and toddler teeth. Providing dental vans to reach underserved areas Contract reform Workforce expansion through: Increasing undergraduate places Giving the GDC new powers to increase exam places Allowing overseas dentists (non-EEA) to practise temporarily in the UK without GDC exams. Whilst these changes are a good start, it remains to be seen if these changes will be enough in the long-run. In next week’s post, we’ll be delving into what we have been doing here at Synergy to bring about changes in the dental profession, and what you as our patients can do to help bring about the change you want to see. Until then, rest assured that as dentists, we are on the public’s side. We are just as frustrated by the current problems in NHS dentistry as you are, and are fighting for change alongside you. If you are presently struggling to find an NHS dentist, we offer our dental insurance called SynPlan to help make dentistry affordable. This is a £10 monthly payment that gives patients access to essential dental care to ensure everyone has access to the tools they need to maintain their oral health. Plus we allow every registered adult to also add 2 children to their plan for free, so your whole family will never need to neglect their dental health.

Invisalign is a clear (invisible) aligner system that aims to straighten your teeth without the need for conventional metal braces.
What is Invisalign? Invisalign is a clear (invisible) aligner system that aims to straighten your teeth without the need for conventional metal braces. It allows you to discreetly adapt and change your smile without needing to tie yourself to a full orthodontic regime. They are essentially clear removable braces and can straighten your teeth over a dedicated period of time depending on the complexity of your case. How does it actually work? Invisalign uses a system of clear aligners that are moulded to your teeth to gradually allow for your teeth to straighten over a set period of time. These plastic aligners move your teeth into the desired position by applying small amounts of pressure over an extended period of time. The system requires multiple aligners to be made each one tighter than the last allowing for your teeth to straighten over time and help you achieve your cosmetic goals of a beautiful smile! How much does it cost? This is highly dependent on your case, which will be assessed in your initial consultation appointment priced at £20 to allow you to have easy access to understand the costs behind a big treatment. However, generally speaking the costs are as follows: Invisalign i7 (7 aligners) : £1750 (Both Arches) Invisalign Lite (14 aligners): £2800 (Both Arches) Invisalign Full (Unlimited Aligners): £3250 (Both Arches) Invisalign Teen (Unlimited Aligners): £3250 (Both Arches) Invisalign Package 1 (7 aligners - Whitening - Retainers): £1500 Invisalign Package 2 (14 aligners - Whitening - Retainers): £2500 Invisalign Package 3 (Unlimited aligners - Whitening - Retainers): £3000 What are the alternatives? If you are aiming to change your smile and straighten your teeth you must consider a form of orthodontic treatment. If you choose not to follow the Invisalign route you can pick a variety of alternatives including conventional braces, our 6 month braces protocol and our Inman aligner protocol. These aim to provide the same outcome as our Invisalign system and have different costs associated which you can find on our pricing page however, if you want a clear aligner that is discreet - Invisalign is one of the finest options in the market. Alternatively, if you have small gaps you would like to fill on your front teeth you can opt for composite bonding - please read our other blogposts to find out more! How long does it take? Again this is mostly dictated by your clinician in your initial consultation appointment. To provide a guide to how long the process will take is unrealistic as it truly is a case by case basis as straightening teeth is a lengthy process. However, with our Invisalign system the average course of treatment takes between 12-18 months to complete and provide you with a beautiful straight smile. We also provide package deals that supply whitening and retainers to ensure your teeth stay pearly white and don’t move back!

A dental implant is a prosthesis that is usually fashioned from Titanium metal in order to replace a space of where a tooth is missing. The metal implant stimulates bone molecules and is placed into the bone of your jaw to ensure it is extremely secure. They are a great choice for individuals seeking to recreate the natural tooth anatomy in a region that has no tooth present.
What are dental implants? A dental implant is a prosthesis that is usually fashioned from Titanium metal in order to replace a space of where a tooth is missing. The metal implant stimulates bone molecules and is placed into the bone of your jaw to ensure it is extremely secure. They are a great choice for individuals seeking to recreate the natural tooth anatomy in a region that has no tooth present. How much do they cost? This is highly dependent on the type of procedure you select, including the number of teeth you wish to replace. It is important to note that implant placement is a section of dentistry that must be formed by highly skilled clinicians. Here at Synergy Dental our prices for implant treatment can be found here on our site. But treatment ranges from £1350 (+£350) to £28,000 depending on complexity. What are the alternatives? This can only be decided on a case by case basis. However, in replacing a gap there are a variety of treatment options to consider that do not need implants. These include - bridges, complete dentures and partial dentures. It is important to note that the best course of treatment can only be decided after an initial consultation is made including relevant examinations. To stress the importance of this we offer a free initial consultation if you are considering implants to allow you to gain the best insight in the treatment that most suits you. How long does it take? Once the initial consultation is completed and consent is verified we can start on your treatment. This usually involves some type of dental surgery where extractions are needed and placement of the implant in stages. You can have your implant prepared in 1 day and temporary teeth fitted also. Following a 3 month healing time, the permanent new teeth can be finally fitted. This is the bulk of the treatment done - however, it is extremely important to engage in after-care to maintain your implants for the long term. This included regular 3 month check-ups to monitor dental hygiene regarding cleaning, x-rays and maintenance. Implants are a lifelong commitment - the procedure isn’t over once you leave the chair! How risky is the procedure? Implants are a very safe and low risk procedure. They are a fantastic long-term solution to missing teeth and have an average success rate of around 95% (1). The treatment does involve a few stages that require high precision and accuracy but due to the high caliber of our dentists you are in safe hands to deliver a high standard of treatment.

Risks will be discussed with your clinician. Particular medical conditions/ deficiencies that may impact treatment include: Uncontrolled diabetes Bleeding disorders Immunodeficiency and immunosuppression Calcium deficiency Heart issues Hypothyroidism Psychiatric treatment What is a bone graft and will I need it? When you lose a tooth, the surrounding bone will be impacted. Bone will resorb, meaning it will reduce in volume causing a noticeable reduction in height and width. As a result, if too much bone is lost implants cannot be placed as there is nothing to attach to. This is where bone grafts come in. Bone grafts add depth and height to your lost bone and come from a variety of sources such as human tissue or animal tissue. Essentially you are replacing the lost bone to create a platform for your implant to be attached to. The need for a bone graft will be discussed with your clinician and relevant CBCT imaging will take place.

> Heading abroad for dental treatment? Quality of materials in a foreign country may be of a similar caliber, but ensuring your dentist is of a high standard can be a difficult task. "Dentist abroad": research carefully!

Is there a difference in quality of materials or equipment abroad? Not necessarily. The quality of materials abroad and in the UK can be of similar caliber. Dentists may use the same brands and companies that produce the dental materials utilised at home. However, as a patient it can be a convoluted and difficult task to identify whether a dentist is using the correct materials and is of high standard. Especially when embarking on international treatment, gaining a greater understanding of what is being put in your mouth can be complex, especially when noting the potential language barriers and protocols in place in each region. How do international practices offer ‘new teeth in a day’ initiatives? This is a very common promotion seen across many practices abroad when trying to entice the UK customer base. It is common to see promotions that have big claims of doing treatment in one day and thus saving you even MORE money. Whilst some procedures can take a short amount of time, with the correct technology, generally speaking the time it takes for dental treatment cannot be accurately estimated without an official consultation and investigations of the patient’s dental status. Many international practices will base their claims and your suitability for treatment on x-rays, CT scans and some images, however, these seldom provide a holistic image of you as a patient and may lead you to believe you are entitled to treatment that may not be suitable for you. As a result, the ‘new teeth in a day’ initiative is a risky one to follow and may lead to rushed dentistry that is not fit for long term purpose. What treatments can be done in the UK and how do they differ to those abroad? All ‘safe’ dental treatments that are generally advertised abroad can be found being carried out by a dentist in the UK. You must be aware however of the type of procedure you want to undergo and whether or not the dentist has the correct qualifications. Identifying whether a dentist is a specialist, has undergone a dental course or any postgraduate training route can be essential in establishing the reliability of the procedures they will carry out. Many dental procedures can be carried out by general dentists however, the more complex your treatment plan the safer it’ll be for you to confide in a specialist who has undergone extra observed training in more complex scenarios. You can see the treatments we provide here and find out more about our team before deciding your treatment plan: How can I find a safe practice abroad? This is the golden question, it can be difficult to establish what a ‘safe’ practice is. Especially when a lot of international practices will advertise their services as package deals and promote treatment alongside a trip abroad - taking the focus away from healthcare and presenting the service as a business product. There are websites that allow you to calculate, compare and contrast practices abroad with amazing reviews, however, we must re-iterate ; dental treatment does not end once you leave the practice doors, it can have long lasting effects and need continuous maintenance and reviews. This can be extremely costly and nigh impossible if pursuing treatment abroad! So the short answer is - you can find some fantastic international practices online but you cannot reliably identify the long term impacts of doing treatment abroad. You may save money initially but the long term costs may outweigh your initial savings. Why should I commit to Synergy Dental over a practice abroad? Here at Synergy Dental we offer the highest standard of care under a team of esteemed dentists, dental nurses and more.

What is dental treatment abroad like? Dental treatment abroad has a varied and foggy reputation. Many people have observed the so-called amazing ‘1 day transformations’ on social media such as Instagram, Facebook and TikTok. However, it can be hard to judge the quality of care and the general outcome of treatment from social media alone. For every 1 day transformation, there is also a slew of dental tourism horror stories. This further mystifies the true nature of dentistry abroad and can make it difficult to make a decision on where to get treatment and whether or not quality of care is of standard. Here at Synergy Dental, we pride ourselves for offering the highest quality of cosmetic care to our patients and do not sacrifice quality of care or materials when helping patient’s reach their dream smile; essentially, treatment abroad has an unclear reputability and thus your decision to go abroad should only be considered with considerable amount of research and appreciation of the potential risks. Why is it so much cheaper than the UK? Due to lower cost of living, lower cost of running a practice and differences in material prices, dentistry abroad can be significantly cheaper than the UK. This doesn’t indicate a reduction in the quality of care, rather it is a reflection of the economic state of the country you are considering your dental treatment abroad in. It is important to note however, that even though treatment is independently cheaper abroad, other costs may contribute to the overall price of your dental endeavor. Things such as flights, accommodation, time off work, aftercare when you return to the UK and more will ramp up the price of treatment. Remember, dental treatment doesn’t end when you leave the practice but rather it has long-term impacts on your dental health and maintenance is just as important as your initial treatment! Are the dentists better or worse abroad? It is a common misconception that dentistry abroad is ‘worse’ than UK dentistry due to a lack of qualifications; this is not the case. However, there is an argument to be made that traveling abroad for dentistry integrates a massive array of factors that may impact the quality of care you receive. It is mandatory for all dentists in the UK practice under GDC guidelines. The GDC, which stands for General Dental Council, is a UK regulatory body that sets guidelines and enforces legislation to ensure UK dentists provide the same high standard of dental care throughout the country. By going abroad, you are at the liberty of the individual clinician, their qualifications and their country’s national regulatory board - which may not be as stringent as the UK’s GDC. What are the common procedures offered abroad? There are a range of dental treatments, usually cosmetic, offered abroad including: dental crowns, veneers, dental implants, teeth whitening, fillings, extractions and more. The reason for this is mostly because these treatments are not commonly offered on the NHS and usually need patients to undergo private treatment. This can be costlier in the UK as materials are expensive and of high quality and overheads in private practice is very high. If something goes wrong can it be fixed here? Generally, it can be a challenge to get dental treatment fixed in the UK due to personal liability of the dentist. If you had bad dental work abroad and expect a UK dentist to fix it, you may be in for a shock as dentists may opt out of meddling with extensive treatments from abroad in fear of litigation without complete history, notes and documentation. This may leave you in a situation where you may need to travel back to your initial practice abroad to fix dental treatment - leaving you more out of pocket and dependent on the integrity of the practice you chose to get your dental work completed at.

A DENTIST has opened his 11th dental practice after adding three more over the past seven months despite all the challenges of lockdown. Dr Zuber Bagasi, clinical director of the Synergy Dental Clinics group, opened his latest practice in Deardengate in Haslingden last week. During 2021, he launched surgeries in Adlington's Market Street, Macclesfield, Oldham. Synergy also has dental practices in Birmingham, Blackpool, Preston, Ormskirk and in Tenterden Street in Bury plus two in Bolton. Dr Bagasi, who lives in Lostock and opened modern office premises in Waters Meeting in Bolton, said: “I am delighted we have now launched another practice and can see the Synergy group growing so comprehensively. “Although, like all dentists, we had our restrictions and challenges last year in particular, we wanted to continue our expansion and to continue giving clients the top-class treatment and services they now expect from Synergy. “We’re delighted with the response from clients in our new areas and look forward to helping hundreds more people across the North West in 2022 and beyond. ” The newest practices, like all of the group’s surgeries, will offer specialist services including Invisalign – a form of brace using its own blend of plastic for clear tray teeth aligners which gradually move teeth into a better position.

Amongst the services the new practice will offer is Invisalign, an alternative to braces which uses clear plastic to gradually move teeth into a better position. Synergy is in the top one per cent of Invisalign providers in the UK.
A new dental practice in Oldham has been enjoying success as part of the company's expansion. The surgery, which can be found on Union Street, is one of four opened by the Synergy Dental Group over the past seven months and one of 11 in total, most of which are based in the North West. The Oldham practice was opened by the Mayor of Oldham, Cllr Jennifer Harrison, back in November and offers a wide range of dental services. Dr Zuber Bagasi, Clinical Director of the Synergy Dental Clinics Group, said he was "really delighted" to have a new practice in Oldham. He added: "Although, like all dentists, we had our restrictions and challenges last year in particular, we wanted to continue our expansion and to continue giving clients the top-class treatment and services they now expect from Synergy. "We’re delighted with the response from clients in our new areas and look forward to helping hundreds more people across the North West in 2022 and beyond. " Amongst the services the new practice will offer is Invisalign, an alternative to braces which uses clear plastic to gradually move teeth into a better position. Synergy is in the top one per cent of Invisalign providers in the UK. Synergy also offers dental implants, teeth whitening, smile makeovers, state-of-the-art digital smile designs and all other aspects of dentistry including general check-ups. Dr Mateen Ahmed, head dentist at the clinic, said he was "pleasantly surprised" with how busy the practice had been so far. "I thought the practice could be quite slow, but with the speed we're going at now, we're going to add an extra day. " The clinic is currently open from 9am to 5pm from Mondays to Fridays. Dr Ahmed, who lives in Rochdale and previously worked in Synergy's branch in Bury, praised the people of Oldham for helping to grow the business through word of mouth. He also said he believed the clinic's success was due in part to the difficulties involving the NHS dental services.

A SUPERFIT Bolton dentist is spearheading a campaign to help young dentists nationally counter the stress of their profession and reduce suicide rates. Dr Zuber Bagasi, from the Synergy Dental Group, last month addressed around 600 dental students from across the country in a British Dental Association (BDA) event in Manchester. He was talking about the urgent need to address “the harmful stress and anxiety in the dental profession” and offered ways to help. He said: “There is a very high suicide rate among dentists - higher than other professions - and I want to help improve their mental and physical wellbeing. ” Dr Bagasi, who lives in Lostock, has founded dental practices across the North West as well as two in Bolton. “It’s really important to provide a balance to all the stress that comes with dealing with patients directly, with their health and their expectations,” he added. “This stress can lead to abuse of drugs and alcohol if people don’t find a way to balance their lives. This needs addressing very early in a dentist’s careers so talking to students is certainly the best way forward. ” Dr Bagasi believes that an active interest in fitness – in particular running, cycling and swimming – can be very helpful. He has practised these himself since he graduated and has taken part in marathons and in the 2018 Ironman in Bolton. He is a member of Tri Rivington and completed this year’s Half-Ironman in seven hours 52 minutes last month, which involved a 1. 2 mile swim, 56 miles bike ride and 13. 1 miles. The dentist said that the BDA established a benevolent fund to help with the wellbeing of dentists as they were “well aware” of the situation in the profession. Dr Bagasi has also recently been elected president of his local mosque and is promoting the importance of health and wellbeing to young people there and in the wider community.

Are you interested in composite bonding as a way to correct an imperfection in your teeth? If so, this is everything you should know.
Your smile is a vital part of your self-confidence, but many people feel insecure about their teeth. In fact, a study shows that over half of adults in Britain are anxious about the way their smile looks. If you are self-conscious about your smile, there are ways and oral procedures that can be done to create your perfect smile. Keep reading to learn about composite bonding and how it can help you achieve a beautiful smile! What is Composite Bonding? Composite bonding is something used by dentists to change the look, color, and even the shape of your tooth. Essentially, the dentist will bond the material to your tooth and fuse them together. Often, composite bonding uses porcelain, resins, and other strong and durable material. When this procedure is done by a professional, the composite bonding will enhance your smile and will still feel like your existing tooth. What Issues Can Composite Bonding Fix? There are a wide array of problems that can be fixed by using composite bonding. Most often, these are cosmetic issues that are fixed with this simple corrective surgery. Composite bonding can fix any minor imperfection in your teeth. Here are a few of the top oral health issues that are fixed through composite bonding. 1. Tooth Discoloration & Staining First, it can fix teeth discoloration. This is perfect for those who want whiter teeth, those who have stains, and those who have any other type of discoloration. When you use composite bonding, the material will not discolor and will leave you with a whiter-looking smile! 2. Chipped Teeth Another common issue that you can fix with composite bonding is chipped teeth. If you have chipped your tooth in an accident, you may be a bit self-conscious about the way your smile looks. By using composite bonding, you can easily replace the chipped section of your tooth and improve your smile. 3. Size & Shape of Teeth If you are unhappy with the size and shape of your teeth, composite bonding may be a great option for you! By applying the composite bonding to your teeth, you can lengthen them, make them appear wider, or do anything else to achieve your perfect smile. 4. Crooked Teeth When you have crooked teeth, you may not want to pay to get braces or straighten them in another way. If you still want to have a straight-looking smile, composite bonding can help with this issue! Your dentist can apply cosmetic bonding in a way that will reduce the appearance of crooked or uneven teeth. While this is a less expensive procedure, it is not a permanent fix for crooked teeth. What To Expect in a Procedure One of the first things that you will do when you want to get bonding is to have a consultation with your dentist. These can be done in person or you can book an online consultation. This will help your dentist see if composite bonding is a good option for you! After this, your dentist will take part of your enamel off of your teeth so the composite bonding can stick to your teeth more easily. Then, your dentist will take a resin with a soft consistency and will mold it to your tooth. This resin will match the color of your tooth and your dentist can shape it to your desired look. Once this is complete, your dentist will polish the resin to make it look like your natural tooth. This is often an easy appointment that doesn't take too much time! Benefits and Disadvantages of Composite Bonding There are many benefits of composite bonding. First, this is a great and inexpensive way to fix minor teeth problems. While you could pay more to get a permanent fix, bonding quickly gives you a great smile. It is also a great option for those who don't enjoy the dentist. This is because it can be done in one visit, and you can even fix many teeth in the same dental visit! If you get dental anxiety, this is a great and painless procedure. Finally, composite bonding is a great way to improve your smile with very little alteration to your original teeth. This means that you can get the smile of your dreams without having to straighten your teeth or use harsh teeth whitening treatments on your teeth. While there are many benefits of this dental procedure, there are also a few drawbacks. First, while they are inexpensive to other options for oral procedures, they will not last as long. You may need to get them replaced after a few years. Another drawback is that they aren't quite as stain-resistant as a porcelain crown. While they can still prevent stains and discoloration, you will need to have good oral health to make sure they keep their color. The last drawback of composite bonding is that you need to be careful with your teeth. If you grind your teeth, bite into hard or sticky food, or clench your teeth too much, it can cause damage to your bonding and may even make it pop off. This is similar to other dental treatments, like fillings. If you are careful with your teeth, you shouldn't have any issues! Find a Reliable Dentist To Help You Create Your Perfect Smile! When you are ready to find ways to improve your smile, it is vital that you find a reliable and professional dental practitioner to help!

One of our youngest, but most ambitious, cosmetic dentists at Synergy Dental Group is Dr Aunkit Vaja, and he loves transforming his patient’s smiles for the better. He’s got a keen eye for how to make the best of a bad situation, so we’re lucky enough to share a unique insight into a recent patient he treated for various cosmetic issues. The patient in question enquired with Synergy Dental about the concerns he was having with his smile. As you can see from the before images, the patients had a noticeable chip in his tooth and his teeth were not aligned correctly. He was booked in for a short consultation with Aunkit to discuss his concerns and talk about the options available. Stage one: consultation and ClinCheck© Aunkit met with the patient shortly after to check out his teeth and oral health. It was clear to him that the patient’s teeth did not need serious alteration, but felt some minor cosmetic touch-ups would greatly improve his self-esteem in general. Aunkit proposed having a basic Invisalign© treatment to reshape the teeth. Not only would minor changes to the alignment of the teeth help his confidence, but it would also make the bite more comfortable and less likely to chip or grind any of the teeth in future. Along with this, Aunkit suggested having a simple composite bonding treatment to fill in the chipped tooth and Enlighten© whitening to ensure the teeth were aesthetically stunning. The patient was happy with the suggestions Aunkit put forward and was excited to get started! First – the ClinCheck©. The ClinCheck© is a very exciting and innovative way to analysing the teeth ready for your orthodontic treatment. Invisalign© will then use the images your dentist has taken to predict what the outcome of your smile will be through the special 3D imaging software. It gets even better... this patient’s treatment didn’t require any impressions! Instead, Aunkit used an intraoral scanner to assess the inside of the patient’s mouth, and this scan was used to make any aligners custom fit perfectly for the patient. Stage two: cosmetic Enlighten© treatment The next stage of the patient’s treatment involved having a course Enlighten©, which is a very versatile treatment with parts being completed at home and in practice. Aunkit arranged for the patient to come into the practice to discuss how the treatment would be carried out step-by-step. The patient was given his custom mouth trays along with everything else he needed to complete his teeth bleaching journey. He was instructed to use Enlighten’s© own tooth sensitivity toothpaste morning and night in anticipation of the bleaching. This prepares the teeth so less sensitivity is felt throughout the process. The patient was told to add a pee-size amount of the gel inside each tooth on the custom tray – although you should never completely fill the tray. This should be worn while you sleep at night and removed in the morning. After use, make sure to brush your teeth with the special toothpaste and rinse the trays with cold water (never hot water). He was also advised to store the bleaches inside the fridge to keep them cool as this reduces sensitivity even more. The first bleach he was told to use was a 10% syringe which was clear in colour, and the second was 16% and blue. Each syringe should last the patient a week each. After the home process had been completed, Aunkit finished the treatment by using a stronger, final peroxide to finish up any areas that may have been missed. This ensures the teeth are looking nice, white, and ready for the next steps in the treatment plan. Stage three: Cosmetic composite bonding The final treatment involved in the patient’s plan was composite bonding. This is to simply fill in the small chip that the patient had in the front of his tooth. It is one of the most cost-effective treatments offered from cosmetic dentists, and Aunkit’s patient was fixed-up in just one appointment. During his appointment, the composite resin was attached to the chipped area. The resin is moulded and shaped to the perfect fit, and it is hardened with a curing light for an easy fit. That’s it! After the treatment was completed, Aunkit ran the patient through some post-treatment care advice. The instructions were simple and clear, such as avoiding biting hard foods on your front teeth, avoid stain-prone foods, and brush twice daily – don’t forget the floss! Stage five: cosmetic transformation The last appointment is the most important appointment for the dentist and the patient. Both get to see the final transformation of the smile, and, for this patient, the change was incredible! He no longer had a smile he felt ashamed about. His teeth were shaped much better, looked much whiter, and his nasty chip was a thing of the past. Just take a look at the transformation! Unsure about your dental health?

To add to this list of pressures facing dentistry across England since the reopening to clinics, strict measures about wearing PPE are being enforced
With the unprecedented changes currently facing many of us daily, keeping updated on the changes is essential. We’ll give you the rundown of any essential changes to our services and general dentistry This year has been, as many say, unprecedented. While UK lockdown regulations have loosened over the past few weeks, it’s important to heed the Government’s advice and stay alert. Keep outside activities to a minimum wherever possible, wash your hands thoroughly, and keep a safe, 2-metre social distance. This is crucial for preventing the further spread of coronavirus across the UK population. As of June 15th, certain shops and retailers are being allowed to re-open their stores in the hopes of recovering the UK economy one step at a time. Although, for dentists, anxieties are still very high across the industry as our practices enter their second week being open to patients. As many dental practices have re-opened, safety measures must remain very strict, and part of this is the limited capacity we have for staff and patients at one time. This means that the number of patients we can see on any given day is very limited and causing concern for the industry. Dentistry's long waiting list With a back-log of patients in need of seeing a dentist, we, as a profession, are facing increased pressures of a growing waiting list. Currently, dental groups are using innovative methods to consult with non-urgent patients through video or live chat. In-practice appointments are still being limited to patients in urgent need only, and no routine check-ups are being booked as of yet. All of this has only added to the financial pressures of closing clinics for a lengthy period, and it has forced many dental groups to close their doors indefinitely. Keep up to date with dentistry by checking out BDA’s latest updates, or keep on top of the Government’s current advice here To add to this list of pressures currently facing dentistry across England since the reopening to clinics, strict measures about wearing the correct PPE at all times are being enforced. Further guidance from NHS England has made it clear that all dental staff must continue wearing surgical masks inside practices when out of full PPE. This will ensure all dental staff are covered at all times while at work. We understand the importance of PPE and how it can prevent further infection, but sourcing the amount of PPE required in such a limited time frame has proven impossible for some dental groups. We, at Synergy, have been fortunate enough to use our connections to help us source a sufficient amount of PPE for our practices to re-open. Now we’ve done so, we want to give back to those practices struggling to re-open. We’ve formed a subsidiary company to Synergy Dental Group in the form of Medic PPE to help those in need of getting their practices back open and running. If you or someone you know is finding it difficult to source trusted, reliable PPE for their practice, you can contact us today or email us directly at sales@medicppe. co. uk.

We can lose our teeth for various reasons from gum disease, tooth decay, oral trauma, and more. Once we lose our adult teeth, we don’t get them back, and prosthetics to replace them can be quite expensive. We want everyone to look after their teeth while they have them, but unfortunate circumstances sometimes leave us with no other options.
Full-arch implants might be costly, but they can really change your life forever. As the most realistic replication of a tooth in modern-day dentistry, find out how this gentleman's life changed in a matter of months. You aren’t the only one feeling self-conscious about your teeth – many people probably feel like they could improve their smile in some way. It's a far cry from a purely cosmetic issue, though, when problems like tooth loss is having a detrimental physical and social impact. It’s something that should be addressed sooner rather than later, as missing teeth can quickly wear down your self-image. We can lose our teeth for various reasons from gum disease, tooth decay, oral trauma, and more. Once we lose our adult teeth, we don’t get them back, and prosthetics to replace them can be quite expensive. We want everyone to look after their teeth while they have them, but unfortunate circumstances sometimes leave us with no other options. One of the main reasons dentists don't like to see people missing teeth is because of the burden it can have on your mental health. Your smile is often the defining feature of your face and one of the first things people see, so it is glaringly obvious when someone is feeling insecure about theirs. More consequences of having missing teeth are the potential for it to misalign the rest of your remaining teeth, change the shape of your face, and even cause jaw bone loss! it just goes to show how important teeth are... Dr Zuber Bagasi has treated many patients in his career with similar situations, but recently saw a gentleman who was particularly struggling with his upper jaw. Having lost all of his upper teeth, Zuber’s patients were struggling to decide how to proceed forward. Thankfully, he got his appointment with Zuber quite quickly, based at Synergy Dental Blackpool. Step one: preparing for full-arch implant surgery Zuber met with his patient for a short initial consultation before any surgery started. The initial appointment is essential for a dentist, as it allows them to spend some time with the patient one-to-one. Here, he was able to discuss any problems or concerns he had. Zuber than had a brief check of the patient’s mouth to figure out which treatment he would be suitable for. While slightly apprehensive at the prospect of surgery, the patient was generally very pleased that Zuber suggested implants would actually be suitable. Along with 6 Straumann© Implants, Zuber also suggested a new denture could also work, but the patient seemed keen to have the permanent feel of an implant-retained upper bridge. It was decided! Zuber later booked him in to take a CT-scan and began drafting his fully personalised report. For implant treatment, your surgeon will need either an x-ray or a CT scan to plan the placements of your implants. CT scans are typically more precise since they give a clear idea of jaw bone width. This is a very beneficial advantage for a surgeon when proposing the placement of implants. After having his CT scan taken and his report drafted, the patient happily consented to the surgery, and Zuber had his appointment booked as soon as possible Step two: full-arch implant surgery and healing Since we use our own CT scans from the clinics rather than doing this on a referral-basis, it makes CT scans far more accessible for everybody. This, in turn, makes implant procedures far less invasive or painful because we can premeditate the placement of the implants in the jaw. Traditionally, an incision would need to be made across the gum tissue to access the jaw bone, and a ‘free-hand’ approach would need to be used to place the implant according to feel and experience. This means that the post-operative stage of the procedure would be a lot more painful for the patient. This patient used the CT scan-guided method for his implant placement, meaning no incision needed to be made during the surgery. A hole is then created, similar to how a hole puncher would create holes in a piece of paper, where the implant would be fit to begin healing. Once the 6 Straumann© implants had been placed, the patient was issued with a temporary denture to see them through the healing period and continued to return for regular interim appointments. This meant Zuber was able to monitor the healing over the next three months, and ensure they were healed completely before the next steps were planned and executed. Step three: impressions, bite, and try stage Next, we get the stages which lead to the final fit. In these next few stages, your dentist will take impressions, assess the bite, and try in a mock-up version of the final bridgework. This patient’s impressions were taken via traditinal moulds, though digital scans are also an option for creating bridgework. His impressions were sent straight to our laboratories were the mock-up for the final bridgework were created and ready to be tested out. Bite registration is also taken to ensure that we know the patient’s comfortable bite. The wax-try stage is very important to ensure the final bridgework is fitted on schedule. During the try stage, Zuber was able to have the necessary alterations made fairly quickly to the final bridgework, making it perfect for the reveal. Once completed, the wax-try bridgework is tried in again with the titanium framework, which is a component used to ensure the stability of the bridgework. This also allows your dentist to double-check everything, again, is impeccable for the final version of the bridgework Stage four: the final fit On the final day of the treatment, Zuber’s patient was presented with the permanent bridgework! This was the day that his smile was changed completely. He had his bridgework attached to his full-arch implants to create a permanent replacement for his missing upper teeth. Once he saw the change, he was speechless and couldn’t stop smiling – something he’d been struggling to do for quite a long time! Zuber and his team were satisfied with the outcome and incredibly pleased with how happy the gentleman was with the results. Take a look at the change from the before and after pictures below.

COVID-19 has devastated industries, crippled the global economy, and left all of us feeling anxious about the future. Find out the lasted on what’s happening in dentistry as of June 8th. Dental practices across England are to reopen for their patients today. While guidance regarding social distancing should still be met, many practices have been in preparation for over a week trying to set up by Monday 8th. As such, we’ve been incredibly busy sourcing and outsourcing a sustainable amount of PPE. We're always eager to give back, so helping out those struggling to find PPE in what feels like a desolate landscape with everything but the equipment they need to reopen was something we couldn't say no to! After the letter (1) from the CDO, Sara Hurley, we were instructed to reopen dental surgeries on June 8th. This was after the initial COVID-19 restrictions which saw dental practice close. Reopening would take into account when and where aerosol-generating procedures should be carried out, arrangements so that the suitable IPC and PPE requirements are met, and practices are prepared for future public health measures to be re-imposed. While some practices have sadly had no other choice but to close and others have struggled to meet the criteria for reopening this week, we’re glad to officially re-open booked for face-to-face consultations for our patients today! How will our services change in-light of COVID-19? Unfortunately, with the current COVID-19 circumstances and current guidance, we must ensure the safety of our patients and staff. We cannot currently resume our dental service in the same way. We are required to follow specific processes to ensure the risk of contamination is minimal to everyone in our practices. As such, please expect some of these on your next visit to us: Temperature check - our staff will screen you before you can enter the clinic. This is a simple temperature check to ensure no one has a temperature exceeding 37. 5 degrees. Staff are also screened frequently. Keep personal belongings with you - we ask that each patient is respectful and keeps their belongings, whether that is a handbag or jacket, on their person at all times. Please sanitise your hands - our staff will ask you to sanitise your hands, so please do so when instructed. Clinical triage - expect a brief clinical triage done via our receptionists before you can be seen by a dentist. Abide by social distancing guidance - we expect that patients wear a facemask (we will provide disposable facemasks) and keep at least 2 metres between themselves and anyone else at all times. Your appointment - you will finally be called for your appointment when your dentist is ready. https://youtu. be/GT-gtBtiLCg? feature=shared Want a more detailed overview of everything that will happen from your arrival at the clinic all the way to the end, watch Synergy Dental's full step-by-step video What should you do? While our e-consultations are still available and will be available for the foreseeable future, we can carry out dental procedures where they are necessary. So, what is our advice for you? We will be avoiding standard routine dental appointments and will be in touch if you have an appointment pending. Unsure about your dental health?

> One of our very popular dentists, Dr Bilal Salim, is a master at cosmetic treatments and loves the outcome of a good smile makeover!

If you feel insecure about your teeth having many gaps, you aren't the only one. Find out how Dr Salim's patient had him smile changed forever! The Synergy Dental Group are keen believers in the power of a smile. It isn’t just us, as you’ll find many others also find the same. The relationship between oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) problems and mood alterations, for example, seems to be evident (1). Simply put, feeling conscious about your smile or having oral health problems can increase your chances of having bad mood swings as well as other mental health problems. Cosmetic dentistry could help! Cosmetic procedures aim to alter the smile to restore a natural and beautiful aesthetic. Over time, involving enamel erosion from poor oral hygiene, your teeth can begin to turn yellow – a completely different shade from the natural white that is. This remains true for dozens of other dental problems which can also be resolved through cosmetic treatments, as the possibilities of altering a person’s smile can change their life dramatically. One of our very popular dentists, Dr Bilal Salim, is a master at cosmetic treatments and loves the outcome of a good smile makeover! He’s almost certainly working at our Farnworth Synergy practice where he treated one patient in particular for a complete smile makeover. This patient resented his upper teeth completely. Feeling this way about your teeth can also cause personal difficulties seen as your teeth are usually front-and-centre on your face. He was very embarrassed about his situation and was becoming more insecure by the day. As you can see from the images taken at his initial appointment, his upper jaw was very misaligned, leaving wide gaps spaces between the yellow-stained teeth. This is his story... Step one – initial cosmetic appointment Like any other dental procedure, no matter how simple or complicated, we always need to meet our patients for face-to-face initial consultations. Not only does this give our dentists the time to get to know you as a person, but it also allows us to investigate your oral health to make sure we understand what treatments would work best for you from a clinical standpoint. This is crucial. He attended his initial consultation, and Dr Salim was able to identify straight away how much of an effect his teeth were having on his confidence and personality. Like many other clinicians, Dr Salim was unhappy seeing patients feeling shy and introverted simply because of how their teeth looked so felt determined to help. After an initial observation of the teeth, and gum health, along with x-rays, Dr Salim suggested that the patient could close the spaces between his teeth with either bridges, implants, or dentures. Alternatively, teeth shape, size, and colour could be improved with whitening, composite bonding, and veneers. The second option felt like the best for him, personally, and they later agreed on a treatment involving Enlighten© teeth whitening, custom-fit Emax veneers, zirconia bridges, and composite bonding. To summarise this, the entire treatment plan was created to clearly outline what would happen during the treatment. This includes all the details of the process; treatments, including all individual treatments in this patient’s case; and costing. Once the patient was happy with all these details, he consented to go forward with the process, and all relevant appointments were booked soon after. Step two – whitening and scans The patient later returned to see Dr Salim to start the necessary steps for his whitening treatment. The patient was recommended a home-based whitening treatment that could be completed while his bridgework and veneers were being constructed. Enlighten© requires having a customised mouth tray to be used at home, so a digital scan was taken of this patient’s mouth. The scans work two-fold, as they can be used for both the whitening and to create the wax try. This gives the dentist and their patients the chance to see what the smile is expected to look like. From there, any final changes can be made before the final version is created and fit. The patient will be given a complete whitening kit to be used at their home which should be done over two weeks, with a further one hour of in-surgery whitening being completed. The full kit includes gels, whitening toothpaste, sensitive serum, desensitisers, and the customised trays made previously form the digital scans. Step three - the wax-up The wax-up is a step we used to ensure the patient is completely happy with their new teeth before any final bridgework is produced. This patient tried in the wax-up to see the shape and sizes that Dr Salim was aiming to achieve. Minor alterations were made to the bridgework by adding more bulk onto back teeth. This ensured that more teeth would be shown. After his appointment was finished, the patient was extremely excited about how close he was getting to his new smile. Step four - preparing the teeth One of the last steps before this patient’s new smile was finally fitted was to have his teeth prepared for his bridgework and veneers. To do this, the dentist will shave away a small amount of tooth enamel from the required teeth. This is done in a precise and secure manner to make sure they’re a perfect size to have veneers and bridgework fitted over securely. From left - teeth preparation, impressions, temporary bridges and veneers After this minor procedure was finalised, he was issued with temporary bridges and veneers while his final teeth where still being made by our laboratory. Step five - final fit and composite bonding This is the moment that patient would be able to see his final smile after having all preparatory tasks finished. He was booked in shortly after his teeth preparation to have his bespoke bridges and veneers fitted leaving a far more natural and appealing smile. After some minor composite bonding touch-ups, the patient's tooth gaps were gone! He was speechless seeing the final transformation! Unsure about your dental health?

As of June 2nd, the lockdown has begun to ease slightly here in England. People can spend a lot more time outside with up to six people at a safe 2-metre distance. Also, few children are being allowed to return to primary schools and some workers are being able to return too.
Sugary sweets and fizzy drinks galore while you binge through Netflix? Take a deep-dive into what you've been doing to your dental health throughout UK lockdown It is 11 weeks on from the strict enforcement of COVID-19 lockdown regulations back in March 23rd. The last thing you’re probably thinking about is your teeth. Well, it might be something to consider. Lockdown has almost certainly taken its toll on the health and wellbeing of your teeth in several ways. As of June 2nd, the lockdown has begun to ease slightly here in England. People can spend a lot more time outside with up to six people at a safe 2-metre distance. Also, few children are being allowed to return to primary schools and some workers are being able to return too. Why seeing your dentist is so important Dental practices have also been allowed to reopen to the public as of the June 8th. Albeit, strict protocols and measures are being put into place to prevent and safeguard patients and professionals from the further spread and another peak of the virus. With dental surgeries forced to close prior this, during the peak of lockdown, this put a lot of patients on edge about their dental health. Without the possibility of routine examinations or regular professional cleaning, patients were panicked that something bad could happen to their teeth. While emergency appointments were still available from some special NHS clinics (our clinics were used for this purpose), these were few and far between, kept to an absolute minimum and were accepted on a case-by-case basis. This was all to protect communities during a dangerous period, but it also left people feeling anxious – and rightfully so! Seeing your dentist is an incredibly important part of your oral hygiene routine. You don’t have to see your dentist every day, but coming in to see your dentist for a routine consultation once every 6 months is typically expectable. Unfortunately, many patients weren’t able to adhere to this due to clinic closures, so all they could do was wait out the lockdown. What most patients underestimate about a routine appointment is that your dentist can often see issues that you may not realise could be detrimental to your dental health. For example, signs of gum disease may not always be as prominent as other cases and could require a dentist to detect it through an xray or other methods. Junk food and dental health To get through the endless days of isolation, many people have turned to junk food and fizzy drinks. This is not only damaging our bodies in general but the risks we’re taking are affecting our teeth too – especially with the limited availability of dentist appointments. Whether being greedy with sugary treats or fizzy pop, all of these are incredibly damaging to your oral health, so we’ll talk a bit about what exactly you’ve been doing to your pearly whites during the lockdown. Sugar is the archenemy of your teeth... well, technically. What makes your teeth suffer after adding sugar into the equation are the events that occur after. Those events cause tooth decay and simply cause your teeth to slowly rot away. After you’ve eating sugar, certain types of harmful, naturally occurring bacteria ingest this. From this, the bacteria will begin to produce a type of acid which will begin a phase known as an ‘acid attack’. This might sound concerning considering sugar can be found in many different foods no matter how healthy or unhealthy, but our bodies are well equipped for dealing with this. As we produce saliva in the mouth, the minerals in the saliva will help towards protecting and replacing the lost minerals of the enamel (also essentially aided by the minerals found in toothpaste). Our concern is that with the increase in free time and sunny days during England’s lockdown, we will start to care less about what we’re eating. Making sure you are brushing your teeth regularly, twice a day are sure ways of keeping your teeth healthy, but avoiding high sugar foods is key for preventing tooth decay and inevitable cavities.

> Just because implants are artificially created and attached, doesn't mean they should not be cared for any less than real teeth.

Poor oral hygiene over a long period will inevitably begin to erode the teeth. They’ll begin to lose their white glow as the enamel breaks down. You will feel pain, and they might begin to feel loose and even fall out.
Poor oral hygiene over a long period will inevitably begin to erode the teeth. They’ll begin to lose their white glow as the enamel breaks down. You will feel pain, and they might begin to feel loose and even fall out. It is a slow, gradual process which occurs when the teeth aren’t cared for effectively over a long period. Many elderly people will start to feel this effect as they age, but what happens when you start losing teeth? Implants could be the answer for you... If you haven’t cared for your teeth over the years, it's possible to suffer from mild to extreme gum disease. Gum disease is progressive and will slowly cause damage to the supporting tissue in the mouth, leaving your teeth feeling weaker and more vulnerable. If the gum disease is given a chance to develop into periodontitis, the jaw bone will begin to show significant signs of damage. If the jaw becomes too damaged and too weak, this could also hinder your chances of having dental implants to replace any lost teeth. Because dental implants rely on a dense jaw bone to be inserted into, a weaker jaw bone may struggle to heal correctly an implant and cause many more issues. If this is the case, bone grafting may be required as an additional step during as part of your implants procedure. A patient who was seen by Dr Bagasi had a similar story, which led him to look for a more permanent solution for his unpleasant smile. At the time of the initial consultation, he was missing a few teeth in his upper jaw, and he was generally unhappy with the appearance of the upper jaw and the denture he was currently wearing. After a brief check of his mouth, Dr Bagasi recommended having a full upper arch implant-retained bridge, which requires full clearance of the upper jaw. This was just what the patient was looking for and couldn't wait to begin his treatment! Step one: implant preparations The initial checks were done to clear the patient for implant surgery. He had a full, digital CT-scan to assess the jaw bone level, and this allowed Dr Bagasi to plan where the implants would be placed in the jaw for the best results. After the full CT-scan surgery guide was created by our specialist technicians, the patient needed to consent for the treatment before it could continue and his appointment, booked. A detailed report was sent to him to read over. Here, the steps for the surgery, risks, benefits, costs, and further advice was all compiled for the patient to consent to. He signed the report, and Dr Bagasi booked the surgery soon after! Step two: implant surgery The procedure aims to have the implants surgically inserted into the jaw where they can fuse with the jaw bone. Luckily, Dr Bagasi determined no reason for bone grafting, as the bone was healthy enough begin with. The patient did require full clearance of the jaw, though, to make room for the implants, meaning that the remaining teeth in his upper jaw were removed from the mouth. The surgery went according to Dr Bagasi’s expectations and was executed without any problems. With the help with the CT-scan surgical guide, the placements of the implants were much more precise. Step three: healing, impressions, and bridgework Healing must be carried out for three months at least after surgery. Implants require time to fuse with the jaw bone, which will give them the unique secure fit that dentures lack. Furthermore, if any unnecessary force is applied to the healing implants, there is more risk of further damage occurring and your implants failing. This patients healing went by quickly, as he was issued a customised temporary denture to see him through the three months so that he was not left feeling uncomfortable. Once healed, Dr Bagasi re-booked the patient in to have his impressions taken. This can either be carried out digitally, through a digital scanner, or using traditional moulds. Dr Bagasi used traditional impression moulds for this patient. Impressions show how the bridgework needs to be made to have a comfortable and unique looking fit. In addition to moulds being taken, the multi-unit-abutments (MUA) are created to permanently attach the bridgework to the implants The last few steps required a Duralay jig to be created to replicate the titanium framework (moulds will also be taken over these once completed), bite registration to be taken, and then a second set of impressions to send off to the lab. Once all of this is completed, the patient had the opportunity to try in a wax-up set of his final bridgework. This is done to make sure both Dr Bagasi was happy and the patient was comfortable. The wax try will then be tried once more with the final titanium frame. Again, this ensures everything is comfortable and looks natural for the patient. Step four: final fit This is the stage each patient looks forward to the most (and so does the dental team! ). At this stage, the patient gets to see what the last few weeks of hard work had created, and this patient was incredibly happy with the results. He not only had a beautiful set of new teeth, he also had the opportunity to care for his new teeth. Just because implants are artificially created and attached, doesn't mean they should not be cared for any less than real teeth. Implants should be thought of as a second-chance rather than an easy solution for caring for teeth. Once the patient was issued with the appropriate aftercare advice and necessary upkeep routine, he was free to enjoy his new teeth and show them off to his friends and family!

Having no teeth is not only a huge worry for many patients up and down the country, but it's another worry to be stuck without teeth while implants are healing. If you aren’t already aware, there is a period roughly three months after implants have been fitted that must be set aside simply to allow implants to heal. After this period, your bridgework can be fitted permanently.
Having no teeth is not only a huge worry for many patients up and down the country, but it's another worry to be stuck without teeth while implants are healing. If you aren’t already aware, there is a period roughly three months after implants have been fitted that must be set aside simply to allow implants to heal. After this period, your bridgework can be fitted permanently. If bridgework is attached too soon to freshly fitted implants, it can greatly increase the chances of the implants failing. This would leave patients in discomfort and leave the surgery pointless. Luckily for these patients, there is no need to worry as your dentist will have the perfect solution for you. Just booking a consultation to discuss your concerns is completely doable! When implants are being fitted, dentists at Synergy will be sure to prepare a temporary denture (or temporary bridgework for those having same-day implant treatment) to fit over your implants. This will allow you to feel confident day-to-day, and still have the period to allow your implants to heal correctly. One of Dr Bagasi’s recent patients not only had these concerns, but he was also very worried about his current teeth. With no upper teeth remaining, he felt very self-conscious about his appearance and was looking for the next best solution. He was hesitant about implants first simply because of the healing duration required, but a short consultation with Dr Bagasi put his mind at ease and confirmed he was happy to go ahead with a full implant-retained fixed hybrid acrylic bridge. Step one – preparing for implant surgery Essential preparatory tasks first need completing for this gentleman’s surgery to go ahead, so Dr Bagasi wasted no time in completing all of these requirements. For example, the patient required a full CT scan of the upper jaw before any surgery was planned. This is because the CT scan would act as the basis for the surgical guide being used and the overall plan and execution. CT scans offer a fully digital model of the patient's mouth whereby the dentist can see the height and width of the jaw bone to ensure it is healthy enough to sustain surgery and recover. It allowed Dr Bagasi to plan precisely were each implant would be placed in the jaw, meaning it is a lot more likely surgery would have no side effects. This, along with another scan and a full report, was completed as quickly as possible so that the patient would have his implants very quickly. Step two – implant surgery The patient had six Straumann implants placed in total, meaning the surgery likely took the entire afternoon to complete. Full arch implants are slightly more of a long procedure, simply because more care and attention needed to be given. As the surgery takes longer, the patient also needs to feel comfortable throughout! Because a CT-scan was taken previously, Dr Bagasi used this surgical guide to get the most precise placement for the implants. The surgery went entirely to plan. The only thing to do next was to wait for the implants to heal over three months, so the patient was given a well-fitting temporary denture to last this time. The patient was able to feel comfortable and confident that his final bridgework would be fitted in no time. Step three – impression, bridgework, and more Once the implants had enough time to heal effectively, the stage of having impressions or scans would then begin. For this patient, he had traditional impressions taken of the upper jaw. This was then sent to the lab to begin his bridgework, which was custom created for his mouth. From left - initial impressions, bite registration, Impregum impression In addition to this, the abutments (posts which the final bridgework will attach onto) will then be fitted, the Duralay jig will be tried in to ensure a passive fit, a second Impregum impression taken, and a final bite registration taken. This all works towards having the final bridgework fit perfectly for this patient. To ensure he was pleased with the results, he tried in a wax try of the final bridge and the wax try with the titanium framework. This means any minor tweaks that need making can be made before the final fit. Each component is thoroughly tested before a final fit. Step four – the final bridgework The final fit will reveal the final acrylic bridgework permanently fitted to the patient’s implants. This is the special stage where each patient can witness for themselves how happy a brand-new smile can make them. The patient was completely over the moon with the results and showered Dr Bagasi with endless praise! The after pictures below show just how much of a transformation this patient had in a matter of weeks! Unsure about your dental health? Call your nearest Synergy Dental Clinic and we’ll be happy to

The difficulty of having missing teeth comes in two parts. Firstly, it can cause serious social issues, like affecting your confidence in yourself and how you feel around others. It can cause plenty of other negative effects too, such as difficulties speaking and eating.
The difficulty of having missing teeth comes in two parts. Firstly, it can cause serious social issues, like affecting your confidence in yourself and how you feel around others. It can cause plenty of other negative effects too, such as difficulties speaking and eating. Ongoing life like this can take its toll on anyone and could potentially leave patients at a higher risk of developing mental illnesses such as depression or social anxiety. Recently, Dr Bagasi was introduced to a patient with similar issues, missing a lot of his upper jaw of teeth, and generally unhappy with the appearance. The problem had slowly begun causing more and more problems in his life, so looked to Dr Bagasi for the best solution. Luckily, the patient sought out help before he became seriously depressed and was hopeful about the future after his first consultation at Synergy Dental clinic. After a thorough examination of his mouth, oral hygiene, and the upper jaw, Dr Bagasi was able to provide two options for him. He could either have a fully-customised partial denture to replace the upper jaw of teeth or he could have a full clearance of the upper jaw and an implant retained denture or bridge to fit permanently into the mouth. He was quick to choose the latter simply due to the permanency and reliability of the prosthetic. The next stage was to get preliminary matters that need addressing before surgery out of the way, making this patient one step closer to having his smile and confidence back! Step one - implant surgery preparations No matter if you’re having a single implant or a full arch, like this gentleman, preparations are required before any surgery is carried out. Appointments can be booked when the surgeon has either done an x-ray or CT-scan of the area in question and once the patient has consented to the entire treatment plan. For this patient, Dr Bagasi required a full 3D CT-scan taken of the upper jaw. This allowed for both the width and height of the bone level in the jaw to be assessed. It also enabled Dr Bagasi to plan precisely where each implant should be placed in the jaw. In turn, this minimises the risk that the implant is placed in a site which may not have enough bone to support the implant, for example. Finally, the full report was sent to the patient to read over. Every detail of the treatment and surgery was listed out for the patient. Once he was happy with everything, he signed and the surgery was booked for shortly after. Step two - full-arch implant surgery Each implant was carefully placed into the pre-planned site, and the surgery went smoothly. The patient was fitted with six implants in his upper jaw to support the future bridgework. For the time being, he was given a temporary denture to wear for the next three months. This will last the full healing duration – a required period to leave the implants to heal. If any unnecessary force is put onto the implants during this time, it could lead to them to fail and leave the treatment unsuccessful. The healing period went very well for this patient, and because he had a temporary denture, he wasn’t left to feel uncomfortable or self-conscious during the period his implants were healing. Step three - impressions and bridgework Once the implants have had time to heal successfully and your surgeon is happy with the results, moulds or digital scans must be taken to send to our laboratory. From this, the technicians can map out state-of-the-art bridgework that fits precisely into each patient’s mouth. The impression work is taken and abutments created to support the bridgework onto the implants. Next, a Duralay jig is created to replicate the final titanium framework. The following step is for a second special impression stage called the Impregum impressions. Using a special tray, this will again be sent to the laboratory to be used for constructing your final bridgework. Finally, the bite registration will be completed to ensure your bite is comfortable and in the correct position, and we establish soft tissue support for your lips and cheeks. After having all this done, Dr Bagasi’s patient felt more and more eager to finish the treatment. He was getting closer to his final teeth and couldn’t wait to see his final bridgework. We also consulted with him about the shade of his teeth. This is something that patients can select themselves, so we were able to ensure he was completely happy with the aesthetic of his future smile too! On the final appointment before his fitting, the patient was able to have a complete look at the bridgework in wax. This is a try-in appointment designed to make sure every minute detail is perfect for the patient. He was happy with everything from the colour, shape, and feeling of the fit. Next was to have his permanent set of acrylic teeth put in! Wax try-in set Wax try-in and titanium frame Step five - the final fit On the final reveal, the patient had the full acrylic bridgework fitted onto the implants where they would stay for a long time to come. After having the exciting reveal, the patient was incredibly happy with the results and was very overwhelmed by how fantastic they looked! After having the necessary aftercare and continued care advice given, he was free to go about his life in peace and comfort. Unsure about your dental health?

You’re likely aware of how prevalent teeth loss is in the elderly. Whether you, yourself have started to notice worrying signs from your oral health as you get old, you aren’t the only one!
You’re likely aware of how prevalent teeth loss is in the elderly. Whether you, yourself have started to notice worrying signs from your oral health as you get old, you aren’t the only one! For various medical reasons, the elderly naturally become more prone to gum disease as they age. While looking after your teeth during your life can mitigate this risk of exposure significantly, ultimately the older you are the more likely your teeth will start to decay. Noticing and acting on the signs, including gum recession, increase in bleeding, or any sudden pain can allow for you and your dentist to plan accordingly. Dr Bagasi had a recent patient who was under similar circumstances as many elderly patients in the UK – her teeth had begun to show signs of decay and wear, and ultimately one of their front teeth had broken off. It is important to note that this can happen to anybody of any age. Tooth fractures can occur due to weak, unhealthy teeth or blunt force trauma. Naturally, the appearance of the missing tooth had significant effects on this patient’s self-esteem, which prompted her to seek out Dr Bagasi’s help! Her options were varied. She could either have a partial denture fitted, a bridge, or a single dental implant. For her, the single Osstem implant was the most reliable option, and she was eager to begin the treatment. Stage one: preparing for implant surgery For every implant procedure, surgery must be prepared in various ways. One of these ways is to either have an x-ray or CT-scan taken of the surrounding jaw bone area. These images are taken to ensure the bone is healthy (no need for bone grafting), and this can be assessed by looking at the height of the bone. For this patient’s treatment, she had a simple x-ray as this was all Dr Bagasi needed to prepare for a single dental implant of this nature. Further to this, digital scans and images were subsequently taken to help the surgery go as smoothly as possible. The patient was only then required to consent to the treatment via an in-depth report laying out every area of the treatment in the most transparent way possible. This includes the planned treatment, surgery, and costing altogether. Once the patient was happy with the details, she signed off for the treatment to begin, and Dr Bagasi was able to book her surgery appointment next. Stage two: the implant surgery, healing, and impressions Every implant treatment typically follows the same routine, including the way implantologists prepare and execute these procedures. This means Dr Bagasi has executed perfect implants thousands of times throughout his career. For the patient, it is normal to feel anxiety when going into surgery, but knowing the success-rate and experience Dr Bagasi had was enough to calm this patient down. The surgery involved having the Osstem implant inserted directly into the jaw bone using a surgical guide. This means that the implant was as precise as possible and was kept secure and healthy over the next three months. Over the next period of three months, the implant was regularly assessed and taken care of, meaning that it was healed appropriately for having impressions and scans taken. Impressions can be taken through moulds, scans, or both to make sure the lab has the relevant information to create your perfect crowns or bridgework. We can even use suggestions of celebrity smiles to help guide your smile in a certain direction! Step three: the final fit Once the impressions had been taken, and this patient’s final crown had been carefully crafted, it was cemented on for the patient to have a perfect smile again! Here, the patient was able to see just what Dr Bagasi has accomplished for her, and she was delighted with how it looked. Final x-rays and images were then taken of the new smile and she was then given the all-clear to live her life in confidence once again! Just look at the difference! Unsure about your dental health?

Not only was this affecting her image of herself, but it was also a permanent reminder of the money and time wasted on the previous cosmetic treatment. Teeth whitening was unlikely to work effectively on this patient because she had so many fillings in her upper front teeth. Teeth whitening products and procedures cannot whiten fillings.
Teeth whitening can be a fantastic cosmetic solution for many patients with staining across their teeth. Most of the time it is a quick and simple process, but it can be quite expensive to complete. If this is the case, you might be unaware that teeth whitening treatments should only be carried out on certain patients, as it is unlikely to have a substantial effect on certain teeth. We’ll use a recent patient of Dr Bagasi’s to elaborate on this fact, and look at how her nightmare became a dream come true after her time at Synergy Dental Clinic. This patient came in for a short consultation with Dr Bagasi where he was able to inspect her general oral health and the state her teeth were currently in. Unfortunately, her upper teeth were incredibly discoloured despite previously having whitening treatment carried out on them. Not only was this affecting her image of herself, but it was also a permanent reminder of the money and time wasted on the previous cosmetic treatment. Teeth whitening was unlikely to work effectively on this patient because she had so many fillings in her upper front teeth. Teeth whitening products and procedures cannot whiten fillings. Instead, she was given options by Dr Bagasi, and they discussed the options together until she was settled on having two-implant replacements and crown enhancements. She had her two front teeth removed to be replaced by implants and the rest of the teeth could be capped with brand new Zirconia-grade crowns. Step one - preparing for surgery The treatment could only really begin once the patient had gone through the necessary steps required. This involved either having a CT-scan or x-rays taken on the mouth to examine the bone structure and plan the surgery. As there were only two implants sites, there was minimal require in the first place, meaning there was so need to have a full CT-scan taken. Instead, she had x-rays taken to judge the height of the jaw bone and the general heal of the teeth and bone. This was enough to approve the surgery. The patient then received a full written report concluding all details of the surgery along with the next steps. This must be consented to by the patient before our dentists can book in your surgery appointment. Step two - the surgery The surgery, as only two implants needed fitted, was concluded roughly two hours after beginning. Both implants were inserted into the jaw bone and secured in place so that the bone would eventually heal around the implants and create a permanent fixture (replicating a natural tooth root). Step three - healing, reviews, and scans The implants were given enough time to completely heal before we loaded anything onto them. This is usually a three-month period whereby healing and regular check-ups are essential to a failure-free treatment. Once this period had been concluded and Dr Bagasi was generally okay with how the implants had healed, scans were planned and carried out to send across to our laboratory. This is done so that our lab technicians can professionally create perfectly matching dental prosthetics for patients. In this case, the technicians were able to create custom-fit crowns to fit onto the implants and Zirconia-grade crown caps for the rest of the upper teeth. Step four - the final fit This is the exciting stage for both dentist and patients alike. This is the stage where the final smile is revealed to the patient. She had an incredible journey which gave her a stunning smile to be proud of her. Just look at how healthier and happier her smile looks now compared to her before pictures!

Having a smile you can be proud of can change the outlook you have in social situations, and this is partly why so many implantologists do the work they do – to give patients the confidence they need.
Having no confidence in your smile can affect your self-esteem dramatically. This could present itself as avoiding showing your smile in public, avoiding interactions with others, or even as far as avoiding leaving the home altogether. Having a smile you can be proud of can change the outlook you have in social situations, and this is partly why so many implantologists do the work they do – to give patients the confidence they need. This is a similar situation to one of Dr Bagasi’s patients, who came for a short consultation at Synergy Dental clinic Blackpool regarding her unsightly upper teeth. It was clear from their first meeting together that this patient was significantly affected by her teeth. It made Dr Bagasi even more keen to help this lady, so after a general examination of her upper jaw, he strongly advised to have a full-upper arch of dental implants to replace the current set of teeth. This would provide the woman with the most realistic, permanent solution she’d be able to find for her problem. Talking to Dr Bagasi eased the patient’s concerns, and she happily agreed to further treatments. Step one - planning implant treatment Dental implants are an intricate and highly specialised form of cosmetic dental treatment. They are popular due to their long-lasting and unmatched realistic representation of natural teeth. While this might be the case, they require some level of planning to ensure the surgery is error-free and that risks of complications are reduced. For this, the patient required having a full CT-scan taken of the upper jaw. While x-rays can be taken for more minor surgeries and lesser risks, Dr Bagasi wanted to be as thorough as possible, as the patient was having a full-arch of implants fitted. The CT-scan was effective in showing the overall bone level of the patient’s mouth, while it also allowed for Dr Bagasi to plan precisely for the placement of each implant in the upper jaw. Looking at the bone levels and health also made sure that the patient didn’t require any further bone grafting to the jaw to support the implants that were being placed. Further to this, the patient was required to sign and consent to the rest of the treatment through a fully personalised treatment plan. This plan listed out every detail Dr Bagasi planned for this treatment, including costs and the possible risk factors. After consenting to this, the patient was shortly booked in for her implant surgery appointment. Step two - the implant surgery This stage involved the implants being placed into the jaw. Using the CT-scan guide used to plan the placement of the implants, Dr Bagasi soon got to work in filling the sites with secure implants. The surgery is usually booked up for either the full morning or the full afternoon, as each implant usually requires at least two hours to be placed correctly. Step three - impressions and healing It is typical for the implants to take up to three months to heal correctly. This is crucial so that no unnecessary force is put onto the implants while healing. If such force was exerted (like loading the final bridgework onto the implants too soon), there is a high probability that the implants would fail and damage would be caused to the patient’s jaw. After the healing stage, Dr Bagasi was happy to begin taking impressions for the final bridgework. This was done by taking moulds of the mouth and having the patient’s final implant posts created and positioned by our technicians. For this, a Duralay jig is used to precisely place the posts into the dental implants. Once the final bridgework was concluded, the patient had a combination of three individually created crowns and an implant-retained bridge for her remaining upper teeth. The next step was to have her try her new teeth on! Step four - final fit At the final fitting appointment, the patient was presented her brand-new smile. The transformation from her old smile was so amazing is almost brought her to tears! This goes to show just how much of a profound impact a few teeth can have. She was so pleased with the results and very excited to begin her new life with her beautiful new smile. Unsure about your dental health?

It could happen to any of us, and as much as you’d like to think your teeth are invincible to the outside world, we can all succumb to tooth loss in the end. Tooth loss can occur from a variety of different dental problems other than old age.
It could happen to any of us, and as much as you’d like to think your teeth are invincible to the outside world, we can all succumb to tooth loss in the end. Tooth loss can occur from a variety of different dental problems other than old age. Although the elderly are the largest effected group, this is not the only way tooth loss can happen. Having poor oral hygiene or having direct oral trauma can all put you at risk of losing a tooth. One of Dr Bagasi’s patients was suffering from a missing front tooth when he decided to seek out dental advice. This is where the consultation started, and after Dr Bagasi examined his mouth and the area where the missing teeth were, he began to discuss possible solutions for the issue. He left the patient with three replacement options: a partial denture, bridge, or a single dental implant. Having discussed the benefits and drawbacks of each, the patient was keen on a single dental implant simply because of its realistic and permanent nature. Step one - starting implant treatment Prior to the surgery, Dr Bagasi required some internal images of the jaw bone to plan the surgery around. This can be done with x-rays or CT-scans. While CT-scans are generally more detailed, they aren’t always required. For the single dental implant being planned for this patient, Dr Bagasi believed the x-ray was enough to view the jaw bone height. CT-scanners are fully available in our practices if they are needed. At the next appointment, the patient’s treatment was fully planned out and drafted into a concise document where all details of the treatment journey, risks, benefits, expected after results, and cost implications are discussed. This document is called a report, and it must be signed off by the patient in order for the surgery appointment to be booked. The patient was happy to consent here, which meant Dr Bagasi was quick to get the appointment booked in for him. Step two - the surgery As Dr Bagasi is a highly trained and experienced implantologist (as are many of our other implantologists), the surgery is usually the easiest and quickest step of the entire treatment. We are quick to reassure patients of this because it can be the most daunting part of the treatment for some. For this particular appointment, it was very unlikely to take longer than two hours as the standard is two hours per implant. After the implants had been placed, the patient was given a temporary partial denture to fill the gap of the missing tooth while the implants had time to heal. Healing is very important for implants, as time (usually three months) needs to be set aside to allow the implants to fuse with the jaw bone to create the permanent fixture many people are looking for! Step three - reviews and bridgework Over a period of three months, the implant was monitored closely to make sure it was healing to a good standard. Once this period has finished and the implants were healing to Dr Bagasi’s expectations, digital scans were taken to send to our laboratory, whereby the patient’s final crown was created. The final teeth can be created using a mixture of digital scan imagery, using old pictures of the patient, or even their favourite celebrity’s smiles! Step four - the final fit On the final day of the treatment, the crown is fitted into the patient's mouth and they are presented with the end results. It’s not uncommon for this to be a very emotional time for patients because our smiles mean a lot of us. How they look generally affects our confidence in ourselves. This patient was incredibly happy with the end results, and couldn’t wait to show off his completely transformed smile! Unsure about your dental health?

Providing implants to patients is an art-form for many implantologists, and in most circumstances, their professional opinion is the deciding factor in how your treatment is carried out. To be able to perform implant surgery, you must have the relevant accreditation and experience to do so.
Providing implants to patients is an art-form for many implantologists, and in most circumstances, their professional opinion is the deciding factor in how your treatment is carried out. To be able to perform implant surgery, you must have the relevant accreditation and experience to do so. This means that those who can perform this kind of treatment has a certain level of expertise in the field, and they are capable of making the best choices – this also includes the choice of having an x-ray or a CT-scan taken before any surgery is performed. This blog will examine the treatment of one of Dr Bagasi’s patient’s, along with the advantages of having CT-scans over x-rays. The patient featured in this case consulted with Dr Bagasi because of her very loose upper front teeth. It can be shocking to anyone who experiences a similar onset of symptoms, so getting your teeth checked and having options in place is something this patient was very keen on doing quickly. On her initial consultation, Dr Bagasi suggested two options were possible; she could have had a partial denture created to replace those loose teeth, or she could have two implants fitted which would hold a four-unit bridge in place permanently. She clearly favoured implants and went on to confirm this when consenting to implant treatment in the next step. Step one - starting implant treatment Before the surgery appointment could be booked, some circumstances of pre-planning were necessary. A summary of the entire process was produced into a written report whereby the patient was able to agree and sign, giving their consent to further treatment. Without this consent, Dr Bagasi would not be able to go any further with the treatment. Luckily, the patient was happy to agree, which left a CT-scan as the final step before booking in her implant surgery. Dr Bagasi is keen on using digital solutions to ensure the quality of treatment for every patient. Particularly for this patient, he decided that a CT-scan would be most appropriate. The reason many prefer the use of CT-scan methods is because of the detail it can provide to pre-surgery planning. CT-scans offer a fully digitalised view of the inner-workings of the mouth. It, therefore, allows dentists to assess height and width of the jaw bone, and it also enabled a more precise placement of the implant, meaning that surgeons can work around areas which are more likely to cause failure or a bad reaction. Step two - the surgery The surgery appointment is carefully planned out, thanks to CT-scan methods, and will be the stage where the implants are fitted permanently into the jaw bone. Naturally, this step requires a period of healing (usually three months) to ensure the implants are fitted securely. Temporary dentures are typically given to patients so that they can still feel confident while their implants are healing and their final bridgework is being created. Temporary dentures fitted Implants fitted Step three - reviews and bridgework After roughly three months and regular interim appointments, the patients returned to have her digital scan taken. This allowed her final teeth to be planned uniquely, and her scan was sent off to the lab where they produced her final bridgework. Step four - the final fit After having the anxiety and fear of having no teeth, the final-fit stage can be very emotional for any patient.

Here at Synergy Dental Clinics, we have dedicated our lives to help people that struggle with this every day, and we try our best to bring the perfect solutions to the table for each one of our patients. We strive to assess each patient’s medical, dental, financial, and social circumstances and use these to determine the best options for them.
Living unhappily and self-consciously with a smile you aren’t proud of can be a challenge for anyone Here at Synergy Dental Clinics, we have dedicated our lives to help people that struggle with this every day, and we try our best to bring the perfect solutions to the table for each one of our patients. We strive to assess each patient’s medical, dental, financial, and social circumstances and use these to determine the best options for them. One of Dr Bagasi’s recent patients, who will remain anonymous for this case study, was another patient we’ve helped through the difficulties of missing teeth and a damaged sense of self. He was unfortunately afflicted by missing teeth on his lower arch and was struggling to find the right dentist to help him. He met with Dr Bagasi for his first consultation whereby he underwent a quick assessment of his overall oral health, then Dr Bagasi took a look at his lower arch to determine what he could do to help There were two main options Dr Bagasi could provide for the patients. He could have had a full denture or an implant-retained denture or bridge. Of course the denture was a viable and cost-effective solution for the patient, but he was very much insistent from the start to have a new permanent fixture. Dr Bagasi and the patient came to the solution of having an implant-retained bridge, and he was incredibly excited to begin treatment. Step one - starting implant treatment As with any other dental treatment that requires minor oral surgery, some initial tasks must first be carried out to ensure the safety of the patient and give the treatment the best chance of succeeding. For this treatment, a CT-scan was taken for multiple reasons. Assessing the bone levels, to check if bone grafting is required, and to create a surgical guide. The surgical guide is particularly important, as it significantly reduces the invasive nature of the surgery. This can only be achieved with a CT scan. Although, an x-ray can also suffice for less intricate treatments. The patient's CT-scan After this, a final report must be drafted up for the patient. Here, they can see what the treatment will do, how the dentist will do it, the risks, the benefits, along with all the cost implications. The patient will need to sign and consent to all this before the surgery appointment is booked and finalised. For this patient, he was happy with the report and happy to continue further with the treatment. An example of what a treatment report would look like Step two - the surgery The treatment is likely the most straight forward step of the entire process. As Dr Bagasi is so experienced in placing implants, there was very little risk of anything going wrong. For the patient, there were some nerves before the surgery began, but Dr Bagasi was able to keep him very calm throughout. The surgery appointment can be booked up for either the full morning or full afternoon, but it rarely takes this long in reality. The extended time allowed the patient to feel comfortable, gives time for the operating dentist to prepare, and gives the patients some time with the dentist after the surgery has finished. Like most implant appointments, the surgery took roughly two hours per implant, and Dr Bagasi was able to provide the patient with important aftercare advice to put his mind at ease. Step three - healing, reviews, and bridgework This is the single most important step that must be followed strictly. Doing so will reduce the risk of the implant failing to heal, and makes sure the implant is stable over a long period. It’s also the step where you’ll be able to talk with your dentist the most about any worries or concerns – so communication is key here. You’ll be expected to attend multiple review appointments over the next few months following your surgery. This is what is called your ‘healing period’. This patient followed the healing period very well, which meant that Dr Bagasi was regularly able to check the implants for any signs there weren’t healing correctly. The first review was two weeks after the initial placement. This is for a very basic assessment and common oral care advice. His next review was another six weeks after that. Another four weeks after that, impressions for your final bridgework can now start. This will allow the laboratory to prepare your new teeth, which will coincide with the end of your designated healing period. Once those impressions were taken, they were then sent to the laboratory for beginning his bridgework. A week later the patient was called back for a second set of his impressions with a special tray, and a final week after this is where bite registration, multi-unit abutment (MUA) fitting, and Duralay jig fitting were all completed. Impressions mould Duralay jig Duralay jig fitted MUA Over the next few weeks after this, his mock-up bridgework was trialled to make sure he was comfortable and they fit well. This process can take a few weeks of tweaking and perfecting, but the final results were just around the corner for this patient... Special Impregum impressions taken Bite registration taken The last step before the final fitting is the try-stage, whereby the bridgework is presented to the patient so that they can see what the final results will look like. It also allows patients to bring up any final concerns or queries, and it gives dentist the opportunity to make very final last-minute adjustments so they are perfect on the final-fit day! Step four - the final fit The final fit is the step many patients are holding on for. While it can take some time and effort to get to this step, it doesn’t lessen the impact of seeing your new smile in all its glory. The patient could not wait for the final reveal, and he was taken aback with the outstanding work Dr Bagasi had accomplished for him. These moments are what our dentists live for – to see just how much your smile can impact your happiness. Along with final photos, the patient had his final x-rays taken to make sure there were as perfect inside as they were outside. Unsure about your dental health? Call your nearest Synergy Dental Clinic and we’ll be happy to help.

The nature of implants requires the bone to fuse with the artificially placed implant for a secure fit in the mouth. This may not always happen for a variety of different reasons, but if an implant case is correctly planned, executed, and monitored, the chances of this happening are greatly reduced.
Albeit a very rare occurrence in the hands of a highly trained and experienced dentist, implant failure can happen to any of us The nature of implants requires the bone to fuse with the artificially placed implant for a secure fit in the mouth. This may not always happen for a variety of different reasons, but if an implant case is correctly planned, executed, and monitored, the chances of this happening are greatly reduced. Just ask one of Dr Bagasi’s recent patients. She came to Synergy Dental for a consultation after the failure of her previous implant retained bridgework for the upper front teeth. It can be an incredibly traumatic situation to find yourself in, particularly due to all the effort that’s put into having implants in the first place. They require a lot of careful consideration and planning, expert knowledge to fit, and trial-and-error to get the bridgework to fit perfectly for each patient. For traditional implants, this can take more than six months in its entirety – so the last thing patients want is for them to fail. Luckily for Dr Bagasi’s patient, who actively sought out his expertise, there was a chance of getting a second set of implants to work. After having a minor examination of her oral health, an examination of the work that was previously done on her, and to make sure her general health was good, Dr Bagasi was happy to begin talking about the future. This was incredibly good news for this patient in particular after already going through the process with her previous dental provider. The options offered after her examination was either a partial denture or an implant-retained four-unit bridge using two implants, but the patient was very insistent on giving implants another go! Step one - starting implant treatment To begin this patient’s treatment, Dr Bagasi took the view that CT-scans would be the most advisable method for planning the treatment. While x-rays can also be used on other variations of implant treatments, they do not offer the same security in having a non-invasive procedure. Reducing risks and post-surgery complications was very important to Dr Bagasi, particularly since this patient has already undergone the same treatment not long ago. CT-scans offer a fully digitalised view of the mouth and jaw, and it allows the dentist to view the height and width of the jaw bone along with its overall strength. It allowed Dr Bagasi to create a fully customised surgical guide, whereby precise holes can be created to get the best implant placement by avoiding any possible risky areas Consent to further treatment is the next thing to consider after this. The patient was sent her fully-personalised report. She was very happy to consent to get the treatment going as quickly as possible. Soon after her consent was acknowledged, Dr Bagasi booked her appointment into his diary! Step two - the surgery During this appointment, the patient’s implants were placed. For most patients, the appointment will be booked out for a full morning or afternoon, but this surgery took roughly around four hours to complete (two hours per implant placed). The surgery was undergone using the CT scan surgical guide to ensure she has little reaction to the surgery. She was completely comfortable after the implants were placed, and excited to begin the healing process. Step three - healing, reviews, and bridgework The healing process can sometimes feel tedious when you’re very excited about having your brand-new smile but it’s an important step in ensuring your implants are healthy and will last you as long as possible. The process is usually split up into different check-up appointments so that healing can be monitored closely. Along with this, impressions for your customised bridgework will be completed so they can be made for when your implants are fully healed. This patient’s healing process was monitored very carefully to ensure there was not another failure. Only two weeks after the implant surgery, she had her first check-up appointment to monitor how well the implants were healing and if she was experiencing any discomfort, but the treatment was looking promising from the start. Over roughly nine weeks, the implants were checked again after six weeks, and she was called back four weeks after that to have her first impressions taken. Over the next few weeks after that her impressions were taken once more, healing was checked more, and her bridgework was trialled to make sure it fits perfectly. Step four - the final fit After several weeks of waiting and keeping the implants healthy, the patient finally had the chance to see her second new set of front teeth! It was a very heart-warming moment for Dr Bagasi and his team and very emotional for the patient but she was just relieved she finally had a secure set of front teeth that she felt confident about. As it was discussed earlier, implants can sometimes fail, but having an expert with as much experience as possible can greatly minimise the risk of this happening at all. If this does happen though, certain things can be done after, so speaking with one of our dentists is always advised if you’re in urgent need! Unsure about your dental health?

As many of you are well aware, the recent emergence of the novel coronavirus (termed COVID-19) has seen countries across the world thrust into panic and chaos as the number of confirmed cases sores with, what feels like, no end in sight.
Synergy Dental Clinic has been there for you through thick and thin – especially for those pesky cavities. Rest assured, we’ll be here for you to keep you well informed during the current global crisis * As of 30/03/2020, all information is up-to-date and gleaned from trusted, accredited sources on the current coronavirus pandemic. Updated information will be added/removed as and when it is released To our loyal patients, As many of you are well aware, the recent emergence of the novel coronavirus (termed COVID-19) has seen countries across the world thrust into panic and chaos as the number of confirmed cases sores with, what feels like, no end in sight. At Synergy Dental Clinic, we understand the concern patients are feeling, we want to be here for you with support and advice as much as we possibly can. These are trying times for us all, and people are looking for information to rely on. For the future, we will always strive to provide you with ongoing services for advice and guidance of both dental advice and recent COVID-19 information. We’re committed to bringing you the most updated information on how it will be impacting local dental practice, as well as advising you using the best sources – avoid ALL information you see on social media and only take guidance from trusted, reliable sources. We urge people to do this because we understand the state of anxiety many are in with the ever-changing media landscape, and government and scientific advice. Some of the details on our blog could become outdated, but we will always strive to bring you the latest guidance and information as quickly as we possibly can. Keep up to date with our social media and the blog section for the most recent updates. A bit about the coronavirus itself A form of viral pneumonia, now referred to as COVID-19 as of 11/02/2020, was first brought to the attention of the World Health Organisation (WHO) on 31/12/2020. It was quickly identified as a new respiratory illness affecting the lungs and airways and was initially identified in the province of Wuhan, China. As it is constantly stated from multiple sources, the virus usually only triggers a mild reaction, if any, in the majority of the cases. It may sound good that a lot of people do not suffer fatally from this disease, but there is still a percentage of the population that will suffer severe illness or even die from the coronavirus. The majority of the cases requiring hospitalisation involved patients over the ages of 60 years, but this doesn’t mean that the rest of the population will get off lightly. The illness should be treated seriously by everyone, as it is in the interest of the nation to curve the spread, protect the most vulnerable in our society, and be wary of the impact this is going to have on our NHS. The best way that any of us can play a role during this pandemic is to be constantly aware of what the government is telling us, which is led strongly by expert scientific advice. Getting accurate coronavirus information The reason clear, factual information is important now more than ever is that misinformation can be spread at a rapid rate. During an international scale pandemic, anxieties are heightened, and people are far more likely to trust information that they might otherwise not consider. Devoted to the spread of factual information, WHO has set-up a WhatsApp messaging service where you can gather updated and accurate information as it comes out. Simply text ‘hi’ to +41 79 893 18 92 for all this advice to your phone. For other languages and numbers, click here. As the NHS website suggests, you should be able to self-diagnose with the coronavirus yourself. If you are suffering from a sudden fever, a new persistent cough, or both, you should immediately self-isolate for 7 days from the first day you show symptoms. If you live with other people, the whole household, including yourself, should immediately isolate for 14 days. The Government stated, on the 23/03/2020, that people must stay home apart from for ‘very limited purposes’. These purposes are as follows (view the full government advice here): shopping for essentials, but keep this to a minimum; to do one form of exercise every day (walk, run, cycle, etc); for medicine or medical requirements, like visiting a pharmacy or delivering medicine to a vulnerable person; and to travel to and from work, but only when it is necessary (work from home if you can). These are, of course, very strict measures that the Government and the police will be enforcing through penalty fines and disbursing the public when it might be necessary. Now is the time to isolate if you haven’t got a very valid reason not to. This way, we hope that the curve can be flattened enough to keep our NHS functioning and to protect those at risk during this incredibly trying time. How has it affected us? This has affected, and will continue to affect, us significantly, but the importance of our employees and our patients will always be at the forefront of our minds. The past few days, our management teams and accountancy departments have banded together in the face of adversity, and they tried to put each one of our employees’ best interests in mind and to keep Synergy Dental Group alive throughout this crisis. For the future... On a brighter note, Synergy Dental is trying to remain in the minds and hearts of those who have been with us for a very long time – and even the newer faces! To do what little we can, we have worked incredibly hard to flesh out a system that will allow patients to consult with dentists either through video chat or over the phone! It gives those of you who are quite worried about your dental health to have a 1-to-1 with your dentist from your living room! We’ve been hard at work thinking about ways we can make a bad situation at least a little bit better, and we’re committed to keeping our (virtual) doors open, being easily assessable to those of you who need us, and looking positively at the future... Keep updated with all our announcements via our social media channels and the Synergy website, and keep safe and healthy. We hope to see you all very soon, The Synergy Family Unsure about your dental health? Call your nearest Synergy Dental Clinic and we’ll be happy to help.

> All that being said, the general public still should not be using any type of facemask that is intended for frontline medical staff during this pandemic.

It might be quite a logical reaction for many, amid a pandemic, to reach for face masks as protection from a virus. In the case of the novel coronavirus, the general public seems to be extremely reliant of wearing whatever facemasks they can get their hands on, but could this be doing more damage than good?
It might be quite a logical reaction for many, amid a pandemic, to reach for face masks as protection from a virus. In the case of the novel coronavirus, the general public seems to be extremely reliant of wearing whatever facemasks they can get their hands on, but could this be doing more damage than good? The truth is, using personal protective equipment (PPE), commonly used within the healthcare industry, should be done so only within highly specialised, controlled environments, or it could make your risks of getting infected become significantly higher. All that being said, the general public still should not be using any type of facemask that is intended for frontline medical staff during this pandemic. Frontline staff should be using a certain grade of PPE equipment (referred to as FFP3 facemasks) that shouldn’t be used by the general public. Medical staff must have the correct type of equipment, and this is not always possible when the general public buy-out these supplies. This isn’t just an issue facing the UK. Many countries across the world, like the US, are seeing significantly reduced supplies – partly due to the increased demand and partly due to the general public taking supplies for themselves. It is advised by the World Health Organisation (WHO), that those who are otherwise healthy and showing no symptoms of the COVID-19 disease (i. e. coughing, sneezing, high fever) should not be wearing masks. The only exception to this would be if you are taking care of someone with the disease – only then should you be wearing a mask. WHO's advice on safe usage? It might be all well and good using facemasks, but these are only effective when used in combination with the correct personal hygiene, like washing hands correctly or using an alcohol-based hand sanitiser. As it is specifically stated on the WHO website, ‘if you wear a mask then you must know how to use it and dispose of it properly’. The following advice comes straight from WHO forguidance on how to use facemasks: Before putting on the mask – ensure hands are thoroughly clean with soap and water or an alcohol-based hand rub the mask should cover the mouth and nose, leaving no gaps between the face and the mask do not touch the mask once it is on and clean your hands again if you do; replace mask regularly and do not re-use single-use facemasks; do not touch the mask from the front end when you remove it; and always clean hands (with soap and water or alcohol-based hand sanitiser) once it is removed. Sorting through our facemask supplies at HQ! What're we doing during the pandemic? As always, Synergy is committed to helping in whichever way we can. We are currently very busy trying to find innovative ways to help patients during recent practice closures, but we are also trying to help those most in need during this time – COVID-19 patients and hospitals. We have a supply of hundreds of FFP2 masks that could help a portion of the general public who are currently suffering coronavirus symptoms or have been officially diagnosed with the disease. These types of masks are incredibly effective at stopping tiny particles from leaving our mouths and contaminating surfaces around us. While we understand these aren't sufficient for frontline hospital staff, we have also committed to source as many FFP3-grade masks as possible to donate to hospitals in the UK during the pandemic. Our delivery for these is scheduled in the coming days and will be distributing these to the local NHS hospitals where they are needed most. We hope that doing this little bit could have a big impact and support the NHS while it is under a lot of pressure. Unsure about your dental health?

> Our senior management and our accountants have found ways to briefly keep the company going long enough to survive past this terrible pandemic.

Dentistry is yet another industry taking huge hits from the recent COVID-19 pandemic. These a real impacts that Synergy are having to deal with day-in-day-out, and we'd like our patients to understand more During times like these, everyone is forced into difficult situations, and every single life, family, small business, and even the wider economy has taken a huge hit. A hit that could be affecting each of us very differently. There is no easy way around dealing with such an incredibly infectious virus that can continue to wreak havoc on lives across the world. Although the impact on dentistry might seem small right now, it’s one that we, as the Synergy Dental Group, have felt most significantly, and one we can speak candidly about with our patients. We’ve always tried to stay as transparent as possible with you all, and now is the best time to do just that. As you are likely aware by now, information is constantly changing when it comes to the COVID-19 disease. We can only do so much when it comes to up-to-date information, but rest assured we are doing everything we can. The information here will be as accurate and updated as possible up to the 30/03/20, and our sources consisted of BDA for dentistry-related information, NHS, GOV. UK, and WHO. We strongly recommend you use the same trusted sources for your information and avoid the plague of misinformation that is simultaneously afflicting us along with the novel coronavirus. Dentistry in the UK It must first be noted that Synergy Dental Group’s practices, along with every other dental practice across the country, have been ordered to close due to public risk being so high. With the rise in infection rates steadily on the incline, this is to be expected, but it puts many dentists in the same position – what next? As practices are closed and all treatments are postponed or canceled, we are faced with minimum income to support the continuity of the business. Rest assured we have worked tirelessly to find every solution possible... but more of that later! Synergy dentists are supporting employees financially As the world continues to struggle day-by-day, so do many of our dentists who are unfortunately overlooked in the Chancellor’s new pandemic financial support scheme for self-employed workers, as mention on BDA, section 8 (this has the potential to change). None of our dentists are able to receive the financial support for self-employed individuals and they cannot undertake any work to earn. We’re incredibly proud of our dentists, particularly during this very trying time. The Chief Dental Officer announced last week that either dental practices continue to receive the NHS payments or seek Government financial schemes, which would include furloughing staff and small business grants – but not both. As the NHS payments are not sufficient to cover the fixed running costs of the business, and paying salaries and dentists, tough decisions have had to be made. We know of other businesses laying their staff off to save these costs or just closing down completely. At Synergy, our dentists have made a unanimous decision to kindly give up their salaries and band together to support the business in whichever ways they possibly can. This means that where our dentists receive their NHS income, they are forfeiting this to pay for the salaries of their dental nurses and the wider team. Not only does this assure the company has reduced outgoings, but our dental nurses and support team have kept their jobs within our company. How is it affecting Synergy? As we discussed briefly above, income is down, but the cost of running the company stays the same. In layman’s terms, this is not sustainable for a long period, and many other dental groups have seen this as a reason to throw in the towel, lay their employees off, and shut the doors. Luckily, we don’t give up so easily, and after some very long hours at our HQ with all our senior management and our accountants, we have found ways to briefly keep the company going long enough to survive past this terrible pandemic. To keep the business sustained for long enough, our Synergy Dentists have forfeited their salaries to contribute towards employee salaries. This is done with the hopes of not leaving our staff unemployed during this time – we want to keep our Synergy family together and financially stable for the long term. We’ve also had to make general cutbacks across the board (i. e. reduce or cease expenses on unnecessary items) and become thriftier than ever. Synergy's CEO and director, Zuber Bagasi will be keeping the business financially sustained for as long as he can, using his own personal funds! We, as NHS providers, are entitled to financial support from the NHS. Without this support, Synergy would not be able to work day-by-day during this pandemic. These financial support packages are paramount to keeping the business thriving. Unfortunately, by taking the recent furlough payments (that is 80% of employee salaries) to pay our employees, we would automatically be disqualified from receiving any NHS support. Essentially, we have a choice of paying our employees (not including self-employed workers) for the duration of the scheme and having no money to support the business, or we can reduce employee hours and keep the company alive using our NHS entitlements and Zuber Bagasi's generous cash injection. The latter would mean we can ensure staff have a permanent job to come back to, while the former would leave PAYE employees paid for a short period before the closure of Synergy Dental Group indefinitely. Synergy's Future? In the face of adversity, we will always come out stronger. As the BDA states here, practices are being advised to operate as much as possible during the pandemic without in-person consultation or opening practices. Instead, we have quickly developed a way to consult with patients via our newly launched digital platform allowing digital face-to-face consultations. We’re calling them e-consultations, and the instructions for getting one are already published via our social media channels. If you’re looking for emergency advice or any other dental consultation, we’ve done everything we can to still be there for you, while taking social distancing seriously! Supporting the community through COVID-19 With much help needed to support our frontline staff to tackle the pandemic, our teams have volunteered to support the emergency services in many ways. Some of which might be taking the load from the NHS emergency dental services, who are drowned with patient contact, through digital triage, face to face e-consultations, and issuing prescriptions. Further, our teams prepare themselves to be deployed to the hospitals to support our NHS. Unsure about your dental health? Call your nearest Synergy Dental Clinic and we’ll be happy to help.

> Three months of healing is typically recommended for the bone to fully integrate with the implant and create a permanent, artificial tooth root

Your smile can contribute tremendously to your mental health, confidence, and overall well-being. By having a healthier-looking smile, you are far more likely to spend time smiling. This is what a lot of people lack with missing teeth, including one of Dr Bagasi’s recent patients
The life of someone with missing teeth isn’t a very pleasant one but this could change with a brand new set of same-day implants The reality of the situation isn’t just the risks and health complications associated with having no teeth, but there are also difficulties patients experience with even basic social interaction. Consider a quick conversation with an acquaintance, a staff party, or maybe even a celebratory family meal. It’s unlikely that the majority of people would ever bat an eyelash at doing these, but for someone with missing teeth, even the smallest tasks can often feel overwhelming. Your smile can contribute tremendously to your mental health, confidence, and overall well-being. By having a healthier-looking smile, you are far more likely to spend time smiling. This is what a lot of people lack with missing teeth, including one of Dr Bagasi’s recent patients, Mr LB (abbreviated for patient anonymity). He booked in with Synergy Dental Blackpool for an initial consultation, where Dr Bagasi had a lengthy discussion regarding his current struggles and how he was feeling. When reflecting on this and taking into consideration the results of his oral examination, it was clear to Dr Bagasi that the patient was struggling with his lower arch the most. From there, Dr Bagasi worked to compile a completely personalised treatment plan to best suit his circumstances. Dr Bagasi thought a full lower-arch bridge supported by dental implants and an upper suction denture was the best course of action. Granted that Mr LB passed all the required safety precautions, he was eligible to have his permanent bridgework fitted straight after his surgical procedure. This is a precise method known commonly as same-day implants. Stage one - starting implant treatment Before any kind of minor oral surgery can start to take shape, a few preliminary matters must first be completed. This includes having extensive checks of your current medical and social history. CT-scans are essential for complex procedures like same-day full arch implants. This is because the process must be done as precisely as possible. For more standard procedures, such as a single dental implant, an x-ray may suffice, but this will ultimately be the dentist’s decision on what they require. The CT-scan used to assess Mr LB's bone structure and develop a precise surgery guide In the case of Mr LB, CT-scans were used to allow for the most minimally invasive procedure possible. The reason why CT-scans are so important for treatments of this nature is that they allow dentists to plan the positioning of the implant while being able to determine how healthy the inner structure of the jaw is. It allowed Dr Bagasi to avoid nerves and blood vessel trauma as much as possible, and he was able to choose the healthiest areas of the jawbone for implants to be placed, reducing any unnecessary risk of implant failure. The last part of stage one will be for the full treatment plan to be mailed to the patient for them to have a thorough read over. It will include everything that will happen during the procedure, what we hope to achieve, possible risks, and the costing. Mr LB signed off to have the surgery, meaning the appointment was booked. Dr Bagasi was then able to start working on his patients brand new smile as soon as possible! Stage two - the surgery It was very important for Dr Bagasi that his patient was well informed and felt like he was being treated to the best standard possible. To ensure this, each patient must first approve the treatment. Once signed off, treatment can start by having your surgery appointment booked in. For Mr LB, the process involved in creating his temporary bridgework (those used after implant surgery) began so they would be ready for his booked surgery appointment. All the essential preparatory tasks are completed before the surgery began. This included getting all staff briefed, equipment and material prepared, undergoing recommended sterilisation procedures, and making sure the patient is as comfortable as possible. Mr LB’s procedure began with Dr Bagasi ensuring the surgical guide, which was previously created using the CT-scan, was ready and in-place inside the mouth. It allows for much more accuracy when placing dental implants. The surgical guide in place The procedure itself is quite easy and short-lived. For Mr LB’s, which only requires four implants being placed, it can be over in a matter of two hours with very little discomfort felt. An appropriate local anaesthetic had been used in the jaw, ensuring that no pain will be felt when the surgery is being performed. Mr LB had four precisely place implant sites created in his lower jaw in total, and no bone grafting at all (requiring bone grafting would mean you are unsuitable for same-day implants). Mr LB felts the procedure went by without any issues, and he was ready for his brand-new smile. His temporary bridge was then put into place, and he left the clinic feeling fantastic! The temporary bridge which was loaded onto the new place dental implants. This was completed in the same appointment Stage three – healing, reviews, and bridgework Whether or not you undertake same-day or traditional implant surgery, healing is still one of the most important stages of the entire process. Without correct healing, implant surgery can fail very quickly and lead to disastrous complications. While we cannot definitively prevent all complications, Synergy implantologists are well able in minimising the risk with their exceptional surgery skills, but without the appropriate healing, risk of complications will ultimately become higher. The Duralay jig used to create suitable impressions on the implants Three months is the advice for the bone to integrate with the implant and create a permanent, artificial tooth root. Mr LB was able to go through this period with his temporary fixed bridge, meaning he was able to get used to having the teeth and feeling much more confident than he did previously. Bite registration is taken and mouth support assessed After the healing process was done to Dr Bagasi’s standards, he made the permanent set of bridgework for Mr LB. A Duraly jig helps to create an impression that fits with the implants. Furthermore, a bite registration done, a wax try made, along with the construction of a titanium framework. This all ensured that Mr LB’s new teeth would suit his face and personality the best. The lightweight, custom-milled titanium framework will be tried out in the mouth before the final fit as well. Custom-milled titanium framework create with the wax try The wax created to ensure the new teeth will suit Mr LB A final evaluation of the work Dr Bagasi has done began. It ensures that both Dr Bagasi and the patient are happy with the outcomes before the final fit. Final evaluation before final fit Stage four - implant final fit It’s an understandably exciting stage for those who have been hoping for new teeth for a long time. Mr LB had gone through all the hard work of surgery and healing to get to this stage, and it left him with an incredible new smile. The final fit stage will be where the patent sees the final bridgework and fit on the implants. Each aspect of the smile met Dr Bagasi's standards, including bite ability, jaw movement, look and feel, patient satisfaction. All of this will ensure the teeth look the best they can, the patient is happy, and they function appropriately. Dr Bagasi’s patient was incredibly happy with the results and is slowly building his confidence back-up every day. New teeth can be transformative and done in as little as a four-step treatment! Just look at Mr LB’s after pictures! Mr LB's brand new smile and after x-ray pictures! Unsure about your dental health? Call your nearest Synergy Dental Clinic and we’ll be happy to help.

> Cases of mouth cancer rose to 367,167 in 2015-2017. Be aware: 38% of those can be avoided. Learn the signs & symptoms.

Be aware but no anxious - the word 'cancer' might strike fear into your heart, but it's something that should be taken seriously
Be aware but no anxious - the word 'cancer' might strike fear into your heart, but it's something that should be taken seriously It’s something you should be mindful about but not obsessed over. According to Cancer Research UK, there were 367,167 cases of cancer in 2015-2017 alone. This is the sum figure of every type of cancer. Various types occur in many areas of our bodies. This makes the disease very dangerous, especially because it’s also estimated that only 38% of the cases in 2015 were preventable. These statistics should shock you – as they are supposed to – but it is important to be cautious and aware rather than becoming unnecessarily anxious. It’s very easy to become concerned about your health and, in turn, become too anxious about it. Rather than this, it is far more important to stay vigilant, be cautious and educated on the signs, and always seek medical advice if you are concerned. For the time being, we will be looking strictly at the forms of oral cancer. If you are also concerned about other forms of cancer, though, make sure to use the resources available on Cancer Research UK. Therefore, we’ll take a look at what mouth cancer is, what we think increases your risk, the signs to watch out for, and much more. What is oral cancer? To summaries what is meant by the broad term ‘oral cancer’, the condition is when cancer forms anywhere in or around the mouth. This includes anywhere on the tongue, inside of the cheeks, around the gums, and even the lips. According to the NHS, while areas like the glands, tonsils, and part of the throat can also develop cancerous tumours, these areas are far less common than those associated with the mouth itself. Mouth cancer isn’t just a ‘one size fits all’ kind of situation and, because of this, experts categorise mouth cancer according to various factors (NHS) to compensate for differences on a case-to-case basis. It will then be categorised according to which type of cells the cancer originally developed in. In most cases, it seems mouth cancer originates from squamous cells, which are generally found in the skin all over our bodies and inside of our mouths. Other types of cancers, like cancer of the salivary glands (adenocarcinoma), are less common but still possible. Sarcoma cancer is another rarer kind of cancer usually found in the bone, muscles, and cartilage. Oral malignant melanoma and lymphoma are other types of rarer cancers. What causes it? The disease is caused by, what is described as, uncontrolled cell growth in the body. These excessive cells will begin to amass into cancerous tissue, commonly referred to as a ‘tumour’. As such, these tumours can occur all over the body. We currently lack an exact scientific explanation for what triggers DNA to mutate like this, but we have been able to pinpoint things which increase our risk of mouth cancer. Everyone should be aware of these factors if they want to lower their risk. Both alcohol and cigarettes are carcinogenic. This means they damage cells in our body and increase our risk of developing cancer. Doing both of these things increases your chances of developing cancer quite a lot, as they are the leading causes of cancer in the UK today. Minimising risk as much as possible should be at the forefront of people’s minds, and by stopping damaging habits could lead to a much longer, healthier life. Other things like using different types of tobacco products, eating unhealthily, and being infected with HPV, can all increase your risk. What are the signs and symptoms? Okay. You’ve got some more information on mouth cancer, but now what? Being aware of the signs and symptoms is incredibly important, as it could be the reason for the cancer being caught earlier and treated. Make sure to watch out for malignant ulcers that do not go away. In most cases, ulcers are no cause for concern and will go away on their own. You should seek advice only when the ulcer is there for longer than 2-3 weeks. Similarly, if unexplained lumps begin appearing anywhere in or around the mouth area or the lymph glands, seek medical advice if they do not subside with 3 weeks. Different types of symptoms like sudden pain when swallowing, suddenly losing a lot of weight, excessive bleeding or numbness in the mouth, and difficulty moving your jaw can all be signs of mouth cancer. While it might be our sudden reaction to panic when faced with even a few of these symptoms, it probably isn’t the best thing to do before speaking with a professional. Many of the symptoms listed can also be signs of other, more minor issues that can be managed far easier than cancer. The main concern is if any of these issues are particularly persistent. In these cases, try to stay as calm as possible and consult with either your GP or your dentist as soon as possible for more information. How is mouth cancer diagnosed? A diagnosis will almost certainly start with an oral examination either by your GP or dentist. This will allow a professional to take a first-hand look at the issues that you a presenting with. They will also ask about what symptoms you have been experiencing so that they can get a clearer picture and decide if there is cause for concern or not. If your dentist or GP believes there is a chance it could be cancer, they will send a biopsy off to be tested. This is done by gathering a small sample of the area in question to determine if it is cancerous. Different methods of biopsy are used, and which is used will depend on your issues and where the cancer is believed to be. If a biopsy returns positive for cancer, further testing will be required to develop a treatment plan for the case. Possible ways of testing can be x-rays, ultrasound scans, MRI-scan, CT-scans, and PET-scans. Unsure about your dental health? Call your nearest Synergy Dental Clinic and we’ll be happy to help.

> Sick of dentures? Same day implants can restore your smile & help you regain your confidence. Learn more about them!

Missing teeth can leave patients suffering every day, but implants can completely change this as it has done for one of Dr Bagasi's recent patients... Once your teeth have become infected, they will begin to rot away or start falling out if you don't take action to prevent it. When this process starts to occur, it would suggest that teeth aren’t being looked after to the recommended standard. This was similar to one of Dr Bagasi’s recent patients (who would prefer to remain anonymous) who unfortunately wasn’t happy with their dentures. The dentures were causing the patient to feel particularly self-conscious to the extent that they were avoiding going into public. It’s very common to feel this way when wearing dentures and having decayed or missing teeth, and this is why implants are such a popular cosmetic dental treatment. The patient smile's prior to surgery, alongside the subsequent CT scan taken for precision implant placement Dentures are not a perfect solution for any patients with missing teeth. They take a lot of getting used to. They have become far more comfortable than older designs, but they aren’t always suitable for everyone. Dentures often require patients to completely change their lifestyle, as a lot of foods aren’t suitable whilst wearing dentures. There are many other reasons patients might find dentures off-putting, but the price-point is usually a lot more affordable and appealing over implants. Nevertheless, implants are a highly sought-after solution because of their permanency as well as their natural aesthetic. There aren’t any worries about which foods you can and can’t eat, if the prosthetic will fall out, or issues of comfort, because implants are very similar to real teeth. It’s unlikely people in public will ever notice that you have implants fitted. This is what caught this patient’s attention from the very start, and one of the reasons why they booked an appointment to see Dr Bagasi in the first place. Stage one - starting implant treatment Almost all dental treatments that you can get will start with an initial consultation at Synergy Dental. So, Dr Bagasi met with his patient for an initial check-up. A dentist will do this to assess your current oral health, make sure patients’ current health is suitable for different treatment recommendations, and suggest the best treatment for individual cases. After an extensive oral examination, Dr Bagasi determined either a partial denture or full clearance solutions would be possible for the patient. They then had a detailed discussion about the treatments on offer, but the patient stayed with their desire for implants. Dr Bagasi approved this. He then began the necessary preparations for him to begin a full arch implant-retained bridge treatment (hybrid acrylic bridge). This included a full detailed report and a free CT scan*. Depending on the treatment you decide to go with, x-rays may be more suitable and cost-effective, but CT scans are generally more successful for full arch implants due to their accuracy and advanced technology. The CT scan (pictured below) allowed Dr Bagasi to assess the bone levels within this patient’s mouth. It also allows for dentists to pre-plan the surgery so that it is as minimally invasive as possible. Dentists can also pre-plan for any bone grafting that might also be necessary. The patient will need to also return to go over final preliminary paperwork and confirm their treatment. This patient did this by having a detailed discussion with Dr Bagasi about what the treatment involved and then decided to consent to the rest of the treatment process. If you have any concerns or worries about the rest of the treatment, this is usually the best time to bring it up with your dentist. Stage two - the surgery Whether it’s the moment you're dreading the most or the moment you’re the happiest about, implants will need to be placed into the jaw bone to allow for permanent fixtures in the mouth. It might sound complicated and time-consuming, but it is generally a very straightforward procedure that your dentist will have a lot of training and experience in doing. Dr Bagasi, for example, is so highly regarded in his field, he has been accredited as a mentor by the Association of Dental Implantology in the UK. He has also accumulated various dental awards and innumerous amounts of loyal patients over his many years as a dentist. The idea of surgical implants is quite simple. Any remaining teeth will need to be removed for a full-arch set of implants, but this will be taken into consideration on a case-to-case basis. After this, the dentist will need to make a hole in the gums and the jaw, where a special implant will be placed. Overtime (the healing process), these implants will start to become more secure as the bone heals. If there are any issues with the bone, which will be addressed through a CT scan, bone grafting can help the regeneration process. Again, this will need to be factored into treatment plans on a case-to-case basis. The surgery itself may take a couple of hours to complete, depending on how many implants are being placed along with the complexity of the surgery. Because of this, a full morning or afternoon will be booked out for you, but it may not necessarily take that long to complete. You’ll need a temporary denture to wear over the implants while they heal, as fitting permanent bridgework at this stage could result in your implants failing to integrate correctly. This patient was happy to continue wearing their old dentures for the remaining weeks while the implants had healed. Stage three - healing and reviews This is a crucial stage of the process, and it will determine whether your implants have been successful or unsuccessful. Although, it’s very likely that your implants will be successful when you are following all of your dentist's recommendations post-surgery. This patient had their first interim appointment booked just two weeks later. These appointments are very straight forward and often only require a brief check-up of the healing process and suture removal. One more interim appointment was booked six weeks later. The patient was given the all-clear again and another four weeks until their next appointment, which was for their impressions. This is an exciting stage of the process where impressions are taken of patients’ mouths and sent off to our dental laboratory. From here, customised full-arch bridgework was created for this patient while they were still healing. The healing stage usually goes on for three months, but this can be different for different cases. Stage four - preparations and final fit The next steps after stage three are all about getting your bridgework perfect for your mouth. You’ll have a number of repeat appointments, which Dr Bagasi’s patient also had, aimed at creating the best smile for them. The patient had these appointments two weeks apart from each other, and a number of important things were done. For example, the impressions were taken a second time with specially-designed trays, the bite registration was completed, and multi-unit abutments (MUA) were fitted along with a Duralay jig. From left to right, MUA, Duralay jig, and bite registration After Dr Bagais had the final production of the wax-up, he had the patient return again to try them out for their appearance, how they felt, and if the patient was content overall with the results. The patient was incredibly happy and was then invited back to have their brand new, fully-customised hybrid acrylic bridge fitted to the implants. This created a permanent glowing smile for them, which the patient was completely overwhelmed by. The titanium frame (left) was specially milled, tested in the wax-up (middle), then embedded into permanent bridge (right) The last appointment you’ll have as part of the treatment will be to review the entire process and have some post-operative x-rays taken. This is to make sure everything has gone according to the treatment plan, and you and your dentist are both happy with the results. Dr Bagasi confirmed that the treatment had been a success, and his patient now wakes up with a glowing smile every single day. Just look at the results!

Cosmetic dentistry is there to help improve the smiles of patients and make them feel more confident in themselves. Fixing those tiny insecurities can have the biggest, most profound results. A recent composite bonding case taken on by Dr Bilal Salim, one of Synergy Dental’s associate dentists, demonstrates this excellently.
Take a look at how Dr Bilal Salim has improved one of his patient's lives with a simple composite bonding treatment. Who doesn’t want to feel confident every now and again? Cosmetic dentistry is there to help improve the smiles of patients and make them feel more confident in themselves. Fixing those tiny insecurities can have the biggest, most profound results. A recent composite bonding case taken on by Dr Bilal Salim, one of Synergy Dental’s associate dentists, demonstrates this excellently. The patient, Sanah, directly messaged Dr Bilal Salim through his Instagram page to arrange a consultation. The patient was travelling from Dewsbury – a 40-mile trip to Synergy Dental Bolton. Sanah was presenting white spots on her front teeth, which also included uneven teeth. These issues had always been a concern for her. After taking the time to research composite bonding and looking through example cases on Dr Salim’s Instagram page, she finally decided to make a change! This was Sanah's smile before any composite bonding treatment was applied The way many dental treatments begin, including Sanah’s, is with an initial consultation. Beginning with routine examinations and x-rays, Dr Salim could confirm Sanah was healthy enough to proceed with the treatment. We then took digital photographs, a digital scan, and went over Sanah’s main concerns. We then went through available treatment options, timings, costs, and the kinds of procedures involved. She was very eager to proceed and was set on having composite treatment on her front three teeth. This provided a symmetrical and even smile. Stage One - assessment, photography & digital scan It is important to first ensure the patient has healthy teeth and gums. It is paramount before any cosmetic work. A routine examination was carried out on Sanah, followed by x-rays and advice for looking after the teeth and gums. Dr Salim also explained the importance of a healthy diet for good oral hygiene, which is another factor patients can overlook. Sanah eventually had her photographs taken which is a very important stage of the process. The photographs allow dentists to communicate options with their patients, help them plan the cases themselves, but also for before and after pictures. Patients are usually very excited about these. The 3D digital scan. This would then go on to be 3D printed and used to create a unique wax-up We now use digital scanners at Synergy Dental. So, for Sanah’s treatment, we took a digital scan. We used these over conventional impressions because of their more accurate, colourised 3D scans of the teeth. This, once again, helps the dentist to communicate with the patient about different options and for planning the treatment going ahead. We then use this digital scan to formulate a fully fleshed-out wax-up. At Synergy Dental, we have now transitioned to more advanced digital dentistry practices. Conventional impressions can be incredibly messy and uncomfortable for some patients. By switching to digital scanners, the accuracy of a wax-up is far better. This also means quicker, more predictable outcomes. For this patient, we used a scan so we could visualise the teeth in 3D and also send to the laboratory. They constructed a wax-up to help with the placement of the composite bonding, allowing the patient to see the end results before going ahead. Sanah's personalised wax-up produced completely digitally Stage Two - the composite bonding wax-up The scan and the photos are sent to the laboratory where the technicians will construct a fully personalised wax-up. The scan is 3D printed and the wax is added to the model in a bespoke fashion, which will ensure teeth are made to the satisfaction of the patient. It also ensures the results will be predictable and will avoid any unwanted surprises for the patient. Of course, with resin-based bonding treatments, we can always make final adjustments and tweaks at the end, if the patient requires it. The blue wax shows where the composite is to be added, to improve the shape, size, and symmetry of the teeth. This is then used by the dentist to help with the placement of the composite. Stage Three - placement and final steps Often, patients will want to whiten their teeth before their composite bonding treatment. This generally produces a much better result and a much more aesthetically appealing smile. Sanah had already carried out whitening treatment previously, so she was happy with her current tooth colour. Sanah's teeth being taped and prepared for composite placement We arranged a two-hour appointment for the placement of the composite. In this appointment, there are no injections or drilling required. We use a plastic frame or a rubber sheet to keep the cheeks and tongue out of the way. This keeps things as dry as possible. Each tooth is then done individually. We use dental tape to help isolate each tooth as and when they’re being worked on. It also blocks out the rest of the teeth. A gel and an adhesive are applied onto the tooth, which will prepare the tooth for the composite to stick to. The composite is then sculpted onto the tooth using special instruments, brushes, and tools designed for resin bonding treatment. Once all the teeth are done, we spend some time polishing them to ensure the composite has a bright shine and natural finish. We can also make some adjustments here if the patient isn’t completely satisfied. Once the treatment has been completed, it’s time for the final reveal! Sanah was particularly ecstatic with her final composite bonding results and felt she could now smile with much more confidence. Comparing the composite treatment to the before images We give some general advice about how to avoid staining and hard foods for the first week after treatment. We also advise regular check-ups and hygiene visits to ensure we keep an eye on the health of the teeth and the composite treatment. Take a look at the incredible smile Sanah gets to wear with pride every day. She loves the results! Unsure about your dental health?

Invisalign is a well-heard-of dental treatment. It has saturated the field of orthodontics – as well as popular culture. Official No.1 hit Bad Guy, by up-and-coming artist, Billie Eilish, lends a comedic nod to the dental brand during the song’s intro.
At Synergy Dental, we take pride in being Invisalign®' s No. 1 provider in the Greater Manchester and Lancashire area. But why has it gained so much traction, and what do the professionals really think about it? Invisalign is a well-heard-of dental treatment. It has saturated the field of orthodontics – as well as popular culture. Official No. 1 hit Bad Guy, by up-and-coming artist, Billie Eilish, lends a comedic nod to the dental brand during the song’s intro. Other well-known names, like Khloe Kardashian; Serena Williams; Tom Cruise; and even Kate Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge have all been figures who have had notable Invisalign treatment. Whether these celebrity treatments have been done as endorsement deals or as personal choices is at the discretion of both parties. One thing is for certain though – it makes sense. Why is Invisalign a celebrity’s preferred pick? If you’re wondering why Invisalign is a celebrity go-to when teeth need fixing up, it’s not really too tough to figure out. Simply looking at their product page, you’ll gauge how much the ‘clear aligner’ aspect of the brand lends to the success of the product. It’s not an uncommon fear to walk around high school, work, or appear in public with obtrusive metal braces, as the overall aesthetic of traditional braces isn’t very popular, albeit they are extremely effective. Those general fears can quickly turn to blockades for a celebrity’s image and brand. Invisalign is a confident contender for traditional braces in this respect. There is very little risk of being seen out-and-about with these aligners, as they are much more discreet. It is clearly a huge selling point for Invisalign in the celebrity market. Although, the way Billie Eilish describes it in her 2019 interview with Pitchfork (right), she clearly didn’t get it for free. So, are other celebrity patients just fans of the product? It wouldn’t surprise us if they were. https://youtu. be/YavL_IVSGV4 What do the experts think? It might be one thing to stamp yourself into popular culture and the world of celebrities, but we must remember that this is an orthodontic appliance, and the opinions of experts should be appreciated and taken into account as well. Invisalign is considered quite revolutionary in its own right, and this is probably why it has become so popular in recent years – for reasons mentioned earlier. It seems there was a huge demand that originally let to the development of Align Technology and the subsequent Invisalign clear aligner. Pointed out in a systematic review of Invisalign’s effectiveness (Galan-Lopez et al. , 2018), the rate that technology was growing, specifically computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing, contributed quite a lot to the growth in popularity Invisalign experienced. The technology that allows us to use appliances like clear aligners might be revolutionary, but there are still disadvantages. Shalish et al. (2012) highlight how expensive Invisalign can be, its technical limitations, and inaccuracy compared with traditional braces, and also its inability to treat more complex cases. Aside from this, their research points to results that the trial group using Invisalign aligners experienced the lowest pain – a conclusion shared with researcher White et al. (2017), who completed a similar trail with a similar proposal. The conclusion of this trial found that those using traditional fixed appliances had higher pain and used more pain relief. Should I choose Invisalign? While we have freedom of choice when it comes to our dental health care, we should still be aware of the effectiveness of different treatment methods. Different methods offer their own set of advantages and disadvantages, and they should be discussed with your dentist to determine the best course of treatment for you. Whether you’re looking for expert opinions or the choices of your favourite celebrities, there seems to be no research stating that Invisalign is any worse or any more painful than your typical fixed appliance. In fact, the opposite seems to be true with both studies discussed here. Invisalign may not be advised for more special and intricate cases, as it is warned that they are lower in accuracy than traditional braces (Shalish et al. , 2012). Making the right choice for you will start with a brief check-up and discussion with your dentist. Book with Synergy today for a completely free consultation!

Perhaps not so literally, but have you been experiencing painful burning sensations in or around your mouth recently? If so, It's possible you’re suffering from quite a complex medical condition referend to as burning mouth syndrome (BMS). It’s characterised as a very rare, hard to diagnose condition, but there are steps that can be made to either ease symptoms or treat them. It’s crucial to seek medical advice for this. By doing so, a health care professional can start working on the diagnosis and treatment of this condition as soon as possible. What should I watch out for? The causes and diagnosis of the condition may seem slightly baffling (which can cause patients to panic or feel uncertain), but there are signs to watch out for. These basic signs can almost always confirm the presence of BMS. Multiple sources (Mayo Clinic and NIDCR) seem to refer to a similar 'scalding' or 'burning' sensation felt on patients' tongues. This is the most common instance, but not the only instance. Sensations can also spread across different areas of the mouth like the gum, tongue, and other areas of the mouth. https://www. youtube. com/watch? v=I4lr3Qz7jfo Some other symptoms, known to co-exist alongside the burning sensation, could be: dehydration general loss of taste numbness Professionals have been quick to suggest a possible link between vitamin B-12 deficiency anaemia and BMS (Colgate). While still unconfirmed, it might be a reason for those suffering from similar health conditions alongside BMS symptoms to consider a dental visit. The list of potential BMS causes can be very long, but some suggested triggers are depression, anxiety, experiencing traumatic life events, or even taking medication (Mayo Clinic). How is it usually diagnosed? According to medical sources, BMS is not an easy thing to diagnose. It may take some time to fully understand what is causing the condition for individual patients. Time may be taken up by specialist referrals, but the difficulty tends to come from lengthy examinations and tests. According to the NIDCR, each patient requires extensive medical history checks and examinations. The requirement for other tests, like blood tests, oral swabs, allergy tests, a salivary flow test, a tissue biopsy, and imaging tests, will vary on a case-to-case basis. It is best to have the condition seen as soon as possible. This way, the process can begin sooner. In cases where the pain is becoming significant or prolonged, you shouldn’t hesitate to contact your GP or dentist for help. So, what should I do? Unfortunately, BMS is generally considered a long-term condition, so the most effective thing that you can do, along with visiting your dentist or GP for advice, is to make conscious changes to your daily life. These changes will ease the effects of the condition and can just be done from home. The Oral Health Foundation suggests changes like sipping water more often or sucking ice. Chewing sugar-free gum can also help by combating dry-mouth, and cutting out alcohol and cigarettes if you use them. Unsure about your dental health?

> When we have choices of manual toothbrushes, mid-range electric toothbrushes, and premium-range AI toothbrushes, when does it stop becoming necessary?

What’s even more interesting is the technology currently at our disposal. It's allowing us to explore AI and the way that this can possibly integrate with at-home oral care. In a recent article written by Lauren Goode for Wired, she explored the growing popularity of advanced tech when it comes to toothbrushes and other dental products.
Technological growth is at an all-time high. It is a topic we’ve covered previously, but it’s all too relevant to explore the rate of technological growth and what it has allowed us to create. It seems newer tech-focused dental products, like the electric toothbrush, have greatly increased our obsession with at-home oral care but has also paved the way for many other similar oral care products as well. A quick analogy can really show the rate that technology is developing. The television, for example, was first created in the late 1920s. It was groundbreaking for the time, echoing to a future laden with televisions in almost every household. Much later down the line – the internet. Founded as the World Wide Web by computer scientist Tim Berners-Lee (History. com) in 1990, this was almost seven decades later. After the era of the internet began to flourish many new things started happening. Only two years after this, the first functioning smartphone was introduced (the term smartphone only coined in 1995 – Business Insider). 64 years compared with a mere two years is astounding, and it really demonstrates the rate which we are currently developing at. Oral Care and Technology Technology doesn't just help dentists in a professional setting (which we have discussed on Dentistry. co. uk), but it’s bringing choice to consumers and their oral self-care. The long-standing debate surrounding manual or electric toothbrushes is a good place to start. The market for electronic toothbrushes is expanding by the day. It's clearly a thriving business, meaning consumers do actually want to purchase these kinds of products and for good reason. Traditional manual brushes are proven to be incredibly effective for keeping teeth shining, even before electric toothbrushes. But the convenience and effectiveness of a self-oscillating, or self-vibrating, toothbrushes cannot be understated. It’s because of that convenience that the electric toothbrush market is booming. It's working so well that there are even different tiers of electric toothbrushes that consumers can choose from. The rise of AI for electric toothbrushes What’s even more interesting is the technology currently at our disposal. It's allowing us to explore AI and the way that this can possibly integrate with at-home oral care. In a recent article written by Lauren Goode for Wired, she explored the growing popularity of advanced tech when it comes to toothbrushes and other dental products. As if you didn’t think electric toothbrushes could possibly get any better, Goode talks about how Oral B® are currently using advanced AI technology in their newest toothbrushes, such as the GeniusX and their, yet to release, iO premium toothbrush. She explains her short experience with the iO test toothbrush left her ‘suddenly disgusted’ by parts of her teeth. It turns out the advanced, self-learning toothbrush can do another anything from making sure you’re brushing for a full 2 minutes to calculating how much of the surfaces of your teeth are being brushed. For Goode, she found she was only brushing 38 per cent of the inside surfaces of her teeth. Another important point is the skyrocketing prices that accompany these kinds of advanced-tech toothbrushes. We are getting more effective with our technology, but this is a double-edged sword. Prices for these kinds of products can sometimes be way out-of-reach for the average consumer, with prices soaring into $200+ for some tech-heavy plaque fighters. Is it necessary? We live in a world where we have choices of manual toothbrushes, mid-range electric toothbrushes, and premium-range AI electric toothbrushes made by Oral B. But when does it stop becoming necessary? In all intents and purposes, smart-tech can be very exciting and pleasing to the consumers. But they can only be enjoyed by those who have access to them. They are by no means essential. Many dentists, hygienist, and other experts recommend that keeping it simple can be just as effective and far more cost-effective. Making sure you are following recommended techniques and always using a fluoride-based toothpaste is crucial when using a manual toothbrush. This can create the same results as any electric version – it just means you’ll have to but the effort in yourself. Unsure about your dental health?

For some of us, it's a day you look forward to spending with our significant other. For other singles, it might be a day we loathe spending alone. Love it or hate it, Valentine's day is a special time of the year. It reminds us to appreciate all the love in our lives.
For some of us, it's a day you look forward to spending with our significant other. For other singles, it might be a day we loathe spending alone. Love it or hate it, Valentine's day is a special time of the year. It reminds us to appreciate all the love in our lives. That's why, this year, we're putting together a short piece about why keeping your mouth healthy is so important, particularly on the day of love. We're also including a very special offer on cosmetic teeth whitening to celebrate! . Kissing concerns It's not difficult to guess what many of us will be doing this Valentine's day... giving our loved ones a big kiss! Kissing is not only a romantic and passionate sign of affection between two loved ones, but it can also support good oral health. Surprisingly, kissing someone naturally stimulates saliva flow in the mouth, and this helps to fight cavities. This means, yes, kissing could be considered healthy for our oral health. Kiss-expert (professionally known as philematologists) only seem to have suggestions on why we kiss each other. There is no definitive answer for why we do so it just yet. Some seem to believe that it's just an interaction that feels good to us, while others point to it possibly originating from behaviours relating to sniffing out the quality of a potential mate. This is all very interesting, (read more about it over at Live Science) but what does this have to do with oral health you might be asking? While kissing may be considered a healthy way of promoting good oral health, there are still certain things you should consider about your oral hygiene, or the oral hygiene of your partner, that could really gross you out. First, if you or your partner has bad oral hygiene, mouth-to-mouth contact may not be the best idea. Our mouths are full of different germs and even diseases and these can spread from one person to another when you’re kissing. The cavities, for example, can actually be contagious. This is because the bacteria that cause cavities in the first place can spread. Other things to consider There are other things as well that should probably be taken into consideration this Valentine's day. Many couples will likely want to spend some quality time together. You'll probably want to be as presentable as possible for this to make the best impression, so don't overlook your oral hygiene! Bad oral hygiene can start to smell foul very quickly, and you wouldn't want to show up to your date like that. Ways to combat bad breath, for example, should start with simply maintaining good oral hygiene - brushing twice every day and flossing before bad is best. If you feel you want an extra burst of freshness, though, there are other ways of doing this that can add to your oral hygiene too. Antimicrobial mouthwash is a good way of giving your mouth lasting freshness for a date, while it also helps with your oral hygiene. Chewing sugarless gum is also another way of quickly giving yourself fresher breath. Sugarless gum is actually very helpful at promoting good oral hygiene because the action of chewing gum stimulates saliva production without the dangers of sugar being involved. It must be noted though, that neither sugarless gum or mouthwashes of any kind should be used as an alternative to brushing. Our special teeth whitening offer To celebrate this year’s day of love, then, Synergy Dental will be running a huge promotional offer - £170 off Enlighten® teeth whitening kits! That's our gift to you! Unsure about your dental health? Call your nearest Synergy Dental Clinic and we’ll be happy to help.

Whether it’s through Instagram, Facebook, or even just browsing through the internet, it’s likely you’ve come across some unbelievably cheap prices for teeth whitening products that claim to fix discoloured teeth. No dental consultation required, and no sky-high costs. Sounds perfect, right? When products sound a little too good to be true, it’s normal to feel slightly hesitant. That’s exactly the response you should have with products which are advertised as miracle cures for tooth discolouration. What is teeth whitening? Nobody’s teeth are completely perfect, but your smile can have a huge impact on your mental wellbeing and your self-confidence. In fact, psychological research seems to suggest that a nice, wide smile can put you in a better mood while also making you look slimmer –make sure to read more about this on Psychology Today’s article. The point being, those who don’t quite like the appearance of their teeth for whatever reason won’t get these amazing benefits that it can bring. Luckily, for those who feel that their smile could be tweaked, cosmetic dentistry is a popular way of paying to have changes made to your teeth. Teeth whitening is a common cosmetic procedure that essentially bleaches the surface of the tooth in order to make it appear lighter in shade. There are different methods for doing this which can be provided to you by your dentist. One way is by using a whitening agent and custom mouth trays which can be repeatedly applied from home. Typically what a laser whitening treatment will look like Another method for professional teeth whitening can be laser treatment. This involves having your teeth whitened directly in the dental practice for roughly an hour. A bleaching product will be applied to your teeth, and a laser will be shone directly onto the products to create the bleaching effect. Many people will flock to alternative methods that mean cheaper costs and more convenience. It’s possible, though, for DIY whitening kits to cause more risks than benefits. It’s preferable not to seek-out these over-the-counter alternatives. Furthermore, the NHS suggests some beauty salons will also offer teeth whitening treatments, but you should avoid these treatments if no qualified dental professional is present because this is illegal. What are the concerns with DIY home kits? Any teeth whitening treatment or kit that doesn’t first require you to have an examination by a dental professional shouldn't be undergone no matter how low the cost might be. Due to the regulation attached to home whitening kits, they cannot contain over 0. 1% of peroxide to bleach the teeth. Unfortunately, this isn’t enough of the active ingredient to cause any lasting changes to the teeth. Not only does this mean that the price you’re paying for these products will essentially amount to nothing, but some of these kits can cause serious harm. For example, as the NHS suggests, kits which require mouth trays to apply the bleaching agent will not be completely unique to your own mouth. This can cause problems with the agent leaking onto the gum itself, which can cause issues with sensitivity and blistering. Due to the possible complications that can come from teeth whitening – including possible sensitivity – it is always best to first have an examination by a dentist. This way, they will be able to ensure that your teeth and strong enough to undergo the treatment. If not, your dentist will have the best information for how best to tackle that kind of setback.

Make this new year's resolution your first step in getting happier, healthier teeth! ‘A new year, a new you’... . an idiom we’re all likely far too familiar hearing when the clock strikes midnight on January 1st. It can be a cathartic way of reinventing oneself. If you feel truly committed, it’s a feel-good way of bringing important, meaningful changes to your life. The downfall of making a new year’s resolution is that they commonly fail very soon after beginning. This is why motivation, support, and consistency are all essential in sticking to your resolution during 2020. Making lifestyle changes isn’t easy, though, and this can be just as true when it comes to making changes to how we take care of our teeth. You might be the type of person to struggle with looking after their teeth on a day-to-day basis. So, take a look at some of Synergy’s top recommendations for ways towards a happier and healthier smile in the new year. What dental changes could you make? Flossing: It’s a step that a great many of us overlook when thinking about oral hygiene. Some of us may avoid it due to an increase in pain and bleeding, while others may not realise it is considered as essential just like brushing. Flossing should be a daily practice, and many people prefer to do this prior to brushing later on in the evening. The truth is, the initial few weeks of flossing for the first time will likely result in some pain and blood. This is simply because your gums aren’t used to being aggravated in this way. Over a period of two or three weeks, your gums should start to settle and get used to it. Dental visits: Remember when we discussed how making a big change in your life might require some additional support? Well, your everyday dentist will be more than happy to be that shoulder to lean on. Visiting your dentist regularly throughout the year is an important thing for your oral health. Not only are they able to pick up on issues you could be having before serious harm is caused, but they can offer educated and trained advice, supporting you in your journey to a healthier smile in 2020. Eating healthier: Completely revamping your diet is difficult but if you put in the time and effort, you will definitely reap the rewards. Eating a nutritious, varied, yet monitored diet can boost your general health and your dental health too. Healthier eating greatly reduces the number of time people will spend snacking between meals (which is a key factor driving obesity and tooth decay rates). It can also lessen the likelihood of your teeth coming into continued contact with dangerous and damaging sugars and acids that usually come from unhealthy foods. Perceiver! Whether you’re putting effort into improving your dental health, physical activity levels, or diet, it won’t happen overnight. It’s important that you feel motivated to make changes, and you have support around you to start seeing results. Make 2020 your year! Unsure about your dental health? Call your nearest Synergy Dental Clinic and we’ll be happy to help.

> After all, our teeth aren’t protected from harmful sugar just because it’s Christmas; it might be a magical time of the year…but it isn't that magical.

Christmas is well and truly upon us. With the count down just roughly nearly a week away, it’s one of the most highly anticipated days of the year. Getting together with all the family, spreading the ‘festive joy’, and – what’s on most peoples' minds – spending most of the week to happily indulge in on a high-fat, high-sugar diet with a huge Christmas dinner on the special day.
Christmas is well and truly upon us. With the count down just roughly nearly a week away, it’s one of the most highly anticipated days of the year. Getting together with all the family, spreading the ‘festive joy’, and – what’s on most peoples' minds – spending most of the week to happily indulge in on a high-fat, high-sugar diet with a huge Christmas dinner on the special day. Unfortunately, all the fun needs to be met with some home truths, because overindulging too much can have serious repercussions on your oral health. This will be Synergy Dental’s own survival guide for over the holiday season, which includes things we should really be reconsidering Sugar, Sugar... and More Sugar! Firstly, the elephant in the room is sugar, and the effects it can have on our teeth. We really have no excuse to overlook the effects sugar can have on our teeth over Christmas. We’ve been told since being very young that sugar is incredibly harmful to both our teeth and general health. Rather than cutting sugar out completely, simply cut down on any additional sugar over the recommended dietary requirements. After all, our teeth aren’t protected from harmful sugar just because it’s Christmas; it might be a magical time of the year... but it isn't that magical. Particularly, sticky sweet-treats do the majority of the damage over the festive period. Christmas cake, pudding, and mince pies are all common desserts consumed over the holiday period. The danger lies in the high sugar content paired with the sticky fruits that can be found inside. Sticky sweets and fruits are very dangerous because they can become lodged in difficult areas of the mouth, causing consistent damage to the teeth. Cutting Back on Bubbles Another mainstay routine that many adults like to indulge in during the holidays is popping a bottle of prosecco or champagne to mark the special time of the year. It's therapeutic and cathartic to sit back and sip on the fine stuff with the rest of the family – a toast can often feel necessary. Our recommendation is to stick with the one glass, though. Fizzy alcoholic beverages like prosecco are jam-packed with sugar, and when paired with the bubbles, these drinks can often make up a nasty cocktail for serious tooth decay. Maybe you do stick with just the one glass of the fizzy stuff, but what happens after? Usually, more and more alcohol consumption. If you’re thinking about drinking wine for the rest of the night, think again. Wine can be just as bad for our teeth as sugary snacks or fizzy champagne whether it is red or white. Wine has the ability to stain our teeth very quickly. Red wine may stain our teeth quicker, but white wine is far more acidic and can have similar eroding effects as champagne. Either way, we urge individuals to avoid excessive alcohol consumption over the holidays, as it has nasty effects on our teeth and our oral and physical health. Christmas Bad Habits Maybe you’re lucky enough to have a short break over the Christmas holiday? It’s very common for routines to start slipping during short breaks from work, and, among other things, our oral health can begin to suffer. One lie in can turn into two and then to three. You’ll have slept through Christmas before you know it. During this time, we lose the motivation to do even the smallest tasks – like brushing our teeth in the morning. Failing to brush our teeth at the times recommended by dentists can put our teeth at serious risk of dental decay, gum disease, foul-smelling breath, and other serious complications. Ensure you are following recommended oral cleaning every morning and night, and try to avoid slipping out of well-establish routines to stay motivated over the holiday period.

> It's an important process that happens to our teeth when they begin losing their mineral content which makes them strong in the first place.

You may or may not have heard dentists talking about remineralisation, and what they mean by this when it comes to our teeth, is an important process that happens to our teeth when they begin losing their mineral content which makes them strong in the first place.
You may or may not have heard dentists talking about remineralisation, and what they mean by this when it comes to our teeth, is an important process that happens to our teeth when they begin losing their mineral content which makes them strong in the first place. The tooth enamel is the hard, outer surface of the tooth that protects the insides of the tooth from harm on a day-to-day basis. Located inside the tooth are a variety of more sensitive areas of importance. The dentine, for example, is the tooth’s secondary layer of defence against any major damage, and it is located underneath the enamel layer. The pulp and the root canal(s) of a tooth are the areas which contain the highest density of blood vessels and nerves which keeps the tooth alive. Not only can damage these areas cause serious pain for someone, but it can also lead to infections and eventually cause the tooth to die away. This is why keeping the enamel strong and resilient is so important. Everyday erosion When dentists tell you how strong the enamel is – as it is stated by Mouth Healthy to be the strongest substance of the body – you might wonder why we need to take so care our teeth so often. Aren’t our teeth safe from harm? Well, it isn’t that simple, and our teeth are actually at risk of serious damage every day of our lives. The risk we are talking about is the risk of demineralisation. Due to the placement of our teeth and how they are arranged, our teeth are in a constant state of demineralisation every time we drink or consume food. Demineralisation happens when the bacteria and plaque from around the teeth and gums react with the sugars in food and drinks. This reacts and leaves acid in the mouth which, if left, will begin to destroy the minerals in the enamel. This is why dentists recommend avoiding a high-sugar diet, as this process is more likely to cause persistent, permanent damage if they are constantly in this acidic environment. Simply put, if the enamel layer erodes too much, it can put your teeth at a much higher risk of serious infection, as the inside of your tooth is no longer being protected the way it should be. Recovery Luckily, because our teeth are always in this state of constantly restricted demineralisation, the enamel has built a resistance to this process which is special and unique to enamel itself (Strange et al. , 2016). As Colgate notes, the tooth enamel is kept safe during day-to-day demineralisation with the help of our salvia. That’s right – saliva is the make-or-break when it comes to risking suffering from tooth erosion. It protects our teeth from demineralisation because it is constantly cleaning away debris and bacteria from around the mouth. It also helps by neutralising the acidity in the mouth after consuming sugary foods. Furthermore, Colgate describes how saliva protects and reinforces the enamel of the teeth. This occurs because the necessary minerals can be found in your saliva, and they are in a state of constant exchange with the tooth enamel, which gives the enamel its self-repairing properties. Unfortunately, this process is not infinite and there are limits that prevent the enamel from repairing itself all the time. Therefore, our teeth can still be at risk of harm. If the process of demineralisation occurs too frequently, your body and the remineralisation process cannot catch up fast enough and put your teeth at risk of tooth decay. Dentists, therefore, recommend limiting the amount of sugar in your diet. This not only leads to a healthier lifestyle but will put less stress on the enamel. In addition, fluoride is another mineral that aids the process of remineralisation particularly well, so making sure you brush your teeth twice a day is considered to provide the most effective amount of fluoride for your teeth to stay healthy.

But, should you really be going aboard to have this kind of procedure? We’re here to give you a brief but clear picture of the things to consider when you’re thinking about jetting off for a new smile. 'Painless'? One of the first points to address to patients is the advertising used for dental tourism, and this is a point thoroughly address by a Liverpool-based private dental practice, Smileworks too. They discuss the frequent marketing strategies that can be found all over the internet, and those marketing strategies seem to argue that ‘painless’ treatments are offered in other countries. This implied a general lack of painless treatments here in the UK, and this simply isn’t true. Dental implants are at such a high level of sophistication that those who are qualified to place them are trained to do so while causing as little pain to patients as possible – this includes during and after the treatment. Implantologists in the UK are trained to pre-empt potential after-effects of the treatment, depending on the difficulty of the treatment. Advanced CT-scan methods can be used to plan surgery and cause as minimal side effects as possible. Furthermore, minor oral surgeries, like dental implants, are mostly undergone with at least a local anaesthetic to numb the area when the procedure is underway. Again, sedation will be, and should always be, administered by a fully-qualified health care professional achieving the most optimal results. This means the pain will likely never be felt whilst going through dental implant treatment or anything similar. The Price of Dental Implants The pain may be none existent during these kinds of procedures, but the price can very much bring a tear to the eye. It is no shock to people in the UK that the cost of dental implants (and dental treatments in general) can be very expensive. Countries like Hungary offer implants for roughly £400 – a stark drop in price compared to the standard quadruple figure sum over here in the UK. Many Brits will flock to these countries to get treatments, but what about the hidden costs? A dental implant is not always a simple one-step process. A thorough and professional procedure will take various stages and multiple interim dental appointments to ensure the implant is healing correctly. This is not always possible to achieve during a standard one-week package holiday, for example, and costs will start adding up when you take into account the flights, accommodation, and the time off work you’ll need to work around in order to make this kind of method viable. Things To Consider The most important thing that patients should understand is that these implants, or any minor oral surgical procedure, will never be a straightforward process. Furthermore, complication can arise. These complications or difficulties would be taken by the General Dental Council, who regulate dentistry across the UK. The GDC ensure that dentistry is being upheld to a professional standard. This is not always the case with other countries, and the standard that is enforced here in the UK may be enforced elsewhere. The areas of dentistry that will likely not be upheld in the same way, for example, are standards in infection control. Ensure that before undergoing any dental treatment outside of the UK you have researched both the country and the dentist. Make sure you have accounted for possible complications (for example, still being in the same country while recovering) because no matter how skilled a dentist might be, unforeseen complications still occur. If you’re looking for a more detailed and in-depth review of all the things you should be considering before jetting off for a new smile, consider seeing one of our implant surgeons. . Furthermore, make sure to discuss this decision with your dentist and make them aware of your intentions before committing to getting treatment aboard. Unsure about your dental health?

What is Diabetes? Diabetes is a battle that many people will have to endure for the rest of their lives with as many as 549,000 people in the UK still requiring a diagnosis, according to Diabetes. The condition directly affects the level of sugar in a person’s blood. There are two main types of diabetes that affect us – the most common of those is type 2 diabetes which has been directly attributed to the increasing levels of obesity. Types 2 diabetes is a condition whereby the body produces a lack of insulin to manipulate sugar intake, leading to blood sugar levels in the body to rise to dangerous levels. Normally, the insulin hormone will moderate the sugar in the body and allow that energy to be stored and used later. According to the NHS, roughly 90% of the people who suffer from diabetes will be suffering from type 2 diabetes Alternatively, type 1 diabetes is distinguished as an autoimmune disease and is considerably less common than type 2 diabetes. With this disease, your body will attack the cells in the pancreas that produce insulin. This means that no insulin is made at all. Links with Diabetes and Oral Health? According to sources like Colgate Professional, research into the area of diabetes and how it affects our oral health has been on the rise for over 10 years now. This research has discovered that there are very obvious correlations between diabetes and having periodontitis. This similarity goes as far as suggesting that you are 3 to 4 times more likely to develop periodontitis if you already have diabetes. Furthermore, this can be a particularlydangerous combination because of how your body reacts to having periodontitis. Periodontitisincreases the levels of sugar in the blood, and this can be dangerous becausepeople with diabetes cannot regulate blood sugar levels. It is very important that your diabetes is well managed as well as your oral health. By correctly managing your oral health, you will be significantly reducing the risk of developing periodontitis, but make sure you understand the warning signs: Red, inflamed gum tissue Bleeding gums after brushing or flossing Bad breath Painfulness Receding gums If you do think you might be suffering from gum disease, make sure you visit your dentist as soon as possible. Gum disease, depending on how much it has developed, can have severe implications, especially for those who have diabetes. How to Keep Your Mouth Healthy as a Diabetic? There are many things that you should be doing when you are a diabetic to ensure that you are healthy in general – but our oral health is just as important. Always be checking your blood sugar range to make sure you’re keeping within your target range, maintain a routine by brushing your teeth twice every day, visit your dentist when required for a check-up, keep a well-balanced diet, and avoid smoking cigarettes.

It’s no surprise that countless celebrities, including the likes of Emma Roberts and Miley Cyrus, seem to be sporting a pearly-white aesthetic from dental veneers, and it has many people wondering – what makes dental veneers such a staple cosmetic procedure? We’ll go over a few commonly asked questions that dentists get about veneers, and maybe you might consider them for yourself.
It’s no surprise that countless celebrities, including the likes of Emma Roberts and Miley Cyrus, seem to be sporting a pearly-white aesthetic from dental veneers, and it has many people wondering – what makes dental veneers such a staple cosmetic procedure? We’ll go over a few commonly asked questions that dentists get about veneers, and maybe you might consider them for yourself. What are they? Veneers are custom-moulded caps made from porcelain which are bonded onto the front surface of each tooth. It is generally considered one of the more straight-forward cosmetic treatments available to patients. The procedure encompasses simplicity with a high-quality, long-lasting end result. Who might benefit? What makes veneers so special is that they are suitable for a wide range of aesthetic issues. For example, veneers have the potential to offer long-lasting to problems like misshapen teeth, tooth chips, and discolouration. Veneers can also be used for some orthodontic treatments. What materials are used? Materials may be recommended by your dentist, but they will also change the cost of the treatment. The common materials that are used can be either porcelain or composite. Porcelain has the toughest durability and resistance to staining, but they will likely cost more to have fitted. How is the procedure done? The treatment will usually occur in multiple stages. An initial appointment will be required – which will involve impressions and, possibly, x-rays being taken. This will be followed by preparing the tooth for the treatment by refining the tooth enamel to fit the crown. The final appointment will have the finished crowns bonded to the enamel. How long will they last? Veneers can last anywhere from 6-10 years once fitted, but this will depend on how they are cared for as well as which materials are being used. Fortunately, veneers don’t usually require special interim appointments. They only require regular brushing as you would with natural teeth. How much do they cost? The price will vary based on where you are having them done, what materials are used, and how many you are having fitted. The base price at Synergy is £270. 00 per veneer*. *This price is accurate as of 28/10/2019 but is subject to change. Will it hurt? No. Veneer treatments are very rarely painful, as local anaesthetic will be used to numb the areas around where the veneers are being fitted. As the enamel of the natural tooth is being refined, you may feel tension or force but this is completely normal. Expect some soreness around the gums after the treatment, but over-the-counter pain relief will treat this. Unsure about your dental health?

> Injuries that cause fractures or even tooth loss are all too common in dental practices, and this is even more common when it comes to sporting injuries.

Injuries that cause fractures or even tooth loss are all too common in dental practices, and this is even more common when it comes to sporting injuries. With potentially high-impact sports like rugby or football, dentists tend to recommend wearing a mouthguard. This isn’t always the base, and many athletes, whether professional or amateur, can end up with some very permeant oral complications.
Injuries that cause fractures or even tooth loss are all too common in dental practices, and this is even more common when it comes to sporting injuries. With potentially high-impact sports like rugby or football, dentists tend to recommend wearing a mouthguard. This isn’t always the base, and many athletes, whether professional or amateur, can end up with some very permeant oral complications. One of Synergy Dental’s previous patients is willing to share his very similar, unfortunate story, and it shows that solutions are available for these kinds of injuries. This Synergy patient had an unfortunate run-in during a football match which saw him being headbutted and losing one of his front incisors. When losing a tooth, there is a small window of opportunity where you can try to salvage a lost tooth, but these steps need to be made quickly and without contaminations. Sometimes it just isn’t possible to do. Our patient came to see Dr Zuber Bagasi, one of our award-winning implantologists. He was tasked with assessing this patient’s current dental state and deciding on possible solutions, which led to him eventually getting a fixed Straumann dental implant Assessment Stage The assessment stage is important for any patient undergoing minor oral surgery, among other treatments. Dr Bagasi led the assessment stage by first making sure it was a suitable decision for the patient to have an implant fitted. For the purposes of the single implant the patient was having fitted, photos and x-rays were taken to aid in the prior planning of the treatment. In some more complicated procedures, a CT scan may need to be taken. Often times CT scans can reduce the potential for post-surgery complications, but your dentist or oral surgeon may not require this for a simple procedure. A full report was then written up for the patient which included diagnosis and the proposed treatments for his missing tooth. Synergy’s ethos is full transparency; therefore, we pride ourselves on giving each patient full costing information, the timescale, and any risks and benefits the patient should be aware of. A full medical and social background check was then undergone to ensure the patient would have no complications, and the surgery would be safe. The report containing all this information was given to the patient to first read over. He later signed to confirm his consent. Our patient was really excited to get his smile back to normal, so the surgery was booked in for Dr Bagasi's earliest availability. Implant Placement Stage The patient was given antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medications previous to the surgery and after, and this is done to ensure there would be as little swelling as possible and a low chance of infection occurring. The surgery is usually booked out for a full morning or a full afternoon (depending on availability) but it rarely takes take much longer than an hour to complete – especially with only one implant being placed. On average, it can take 30-45 minutes to complete one implant and 2 hours for a full jaw. For a more detailed overview of how implant surgery is usually undergone, look at another Synergy case study here. Healing Stage For this patient, everything went as planned, and the procedure was placed without any complications. He was then advised to leave the implant to heal for a further 3 months before any permanent fixtures are added, as this can cause healing difficulties. The healing was also monitored closely with frequent interim appointments, and this allowed the patient to ask question and air any concerns about the healing process. Fitting Stage The patient was booked in to have his impressions taken once his implant was sufficiently healed. From this, the lab was able to measure and construct his personalised porcelain crown and the titanium abutment that attached to the implant (also available in zirconia). Once created, Dr Bagasi later tested each component of a wax mock-up, including using a Duralay jig to ensure the placement of the abutment in the implant was as precise as it could be. As the right-most image shows, the gold-quality porcelain crown was created to ensure that the shade would match-up with the patient’s smile. Not every smile is completely white or completely yellow – there are shades in-between that need accounting for. With our gold-quality porcelain crowns, the lab was able to match the appropriate shade and achieve a natural translucency so that the crown blended seamlessly into the smile. Final Stage Once the patient and Dr Bagasi were happy that all components were functioning smoothly together, the final fit was arranged and the patient was able to see himself with his new smile for the first time. This left the patient with a discreet, yet permanent, solution which he was incredibly happy to see for the first time. He no longer felt like he had to take time off from football due to embarrassment and felt confident once again. This just goes to show how much an impact one tooth can have on your life which is why all our dentists go above-and-beyond for our patients. Their most important motivation is helping their patients feel comfortable and confident with their smiles. Unsure about your dental health?

Maybe you’re curious about what goes on during implant placement procedures? Maybe you’re anxious about your upcoming surgery, and you want to know a bit about what happens? Let’s explore the journey one of Synergy’s previous patients went on to have a single implant placed on their maxilla (upper jaw bone)
Maybe you’re curious about what goes on during implant placement procedures? Maybe you’re anxious about your upcoming surgery, and you want to know a bit about what happens? Let’s explore the journey one of Synergy’s previous patients went on to have a single implant placed on their maxilla (upper jaw bone). Background Beginning the treatment, the patient in question came to Dr Bagasi with a missing upper right central incisor (UR1). The missing tooth caused the patient to develop problems with their self-image – ultimately leading to the patient becoming quite self-conscious. These are very common repercussions that result from a broken smile, as the patient can find it very difficult to live with missing teeth. This was the patient's smile on his first consultation day. After the missing UR1 was thoroughly examined, (while also proving a further examination of the patient’s general and oral health) Dr Bagasi suggested three potential methods for replacing the missing tooth. These were: A partial denture – an acrylic denture offers a removable solution with no surgical intervention required. A 3-unit porcelain bridge – a bridge would require one or more adjacent teeth to be shaved down. Caps would then be placed over these and act as the support for the replacement tooth. Although, nearly 60% of the natural tooth is destroyed, and there is a chance that the nerve will die away. A single dental implant – this option requires minor oral surgery to place a fixed implant deep into the jaw bone. The bone will then heal to the implant, leaving a permeant fixture. Following the patient’s decision to undertake treatment for a single dental implant, all the prerequisites were completed before the implant placement appointment was booked. Implant Placement Stage On the day of the implant surgery, Dr Bagasi and the team prepared the room the same way every other minor oral surgery is prepared for. The entire area and each member of the surgical team were first fully sterilised, and all the required equipment and materials were laid out for easy access during the surgery. During the procedure, an initial incision was made into the area where the implant was being placed. The whole procedure was very straight forward and took a lot less time because only one plant was being fitted. There is generally less trauma to the mouth because of this, meaning there was minimal swelling and bruising – common for single implant procedures. Once Dr Bagasi drilled the correct sized hole in the jaw, a tool was used to measure the exact depth of the hole. This is important, as the hole needs to be the correct depth in the jaw for the bone to attach onto the implant. This specialist tool allowing the implantologist to ensure the hole is the correct depth. Once the implant had been fitted and Dr Bagasi was happy with the placement in the jaw, a healing cap was attached on to the end of the implant. This is done to assure that the soft tissue does not heal over the implant itself when we come to attaching the crown. Healing Stage Healing for an implant usually takes about 3 months. During this period, the jaw bone begins to attach onto the implant. This is what replicates the natural root of the tooth. Dr Bagasi had the patient attend consecutive follow-up review appointments. This is standard for most implant procedures, as the healing process needs to be monitored closely. The first review was 2 weeks after the procedure, followed by another review 4 weeks later. Both these appointments are designed to monitor the healing process while maintaining a high standard of cleaning. These appointments are essential, as they allow your dentist to maintain upkeep while monitoring for potential complications. Impression Stage The final review appointment was then booked in for the patient. This is the appointment where impressions had been taken of the patient’s mouth. Impressions are taken to ensure the lab, who create the final crown, have a clear picture of the patient’s mouth. An upper and lower jaw impression was then created in order to make a bite registration (the blue paste). This ensures that the bite will still remain even with the final crown fitted. A Duralay jig was then created by the lab. This was used to ensure that the crown is cemented or screwed into the exact place that was originally planned prior to the surgery. A post was then made to fit into the Duralay jig. This all ensures that the post and the crown will come together to create the most accurate positioning. The final crown was then fitted to the mock-up to confirm the positioning and the final look. This is the stage where Dr Bagasi could give the last confirmation that the crown looked and fitted as accurately as possible for the patient. Final Stage At the final stage, the patient had their implant fitted into the final position. This was done by getting the correct position from the Duralay jig and the post in place. The final look was then photographed, and the patient had a final post-operative x-ray taken to make sure that the implant had fully healed without any complications. The patient was incredibly impressed with the change and how the overall aesthetic of the mouth had significantly improved. He finally had his confidence restored and couldn't be happier.

It may be the first time you’re hearing it, but chewing gum can actually be good for your oral health. Granted, not any old chewing gum will do – you’ll need a sugar-free variant of the gum for it to positively affect your oral hygiene. Even the American Dental Association (ADA) have their own seal of approval for a select number of chewing gum products. Interested?
It may be the first time you’re hearing it, but chewing gum can actually be good for your oral health. Granted, not any old chewing gum will do – you’ll need a sugar-free variant of the gum for it to positively affect your oral hygiene. Even the American Dental Association (ADA) have their own seal of approval for a select number of chewing gum products. Interested? Check them out here. Why is sugar harmful? So, if you’re wondering how sugar-less gum is good for your teeth, it starts with the main part (or lack of) – no sugar. Sugar is a known causer of tooth decay. This is because of the thousands of bacteria found in the mouth feast on added sugar. It creates a chain reaction that ends up damaging the tooth’s surface over time. When these bacteria consume the sugar in your mouth, they produce dangerous acids as a result. The outer layer of enamel, once damaged, does not grow back, meaning this is irreversible damage being done to your teeth. Cavities will also begin to develop in your teeth, and there is then a risk that the teeth can become painful and even fall out if left untreated. What is sugarless gum beneficial? When gum doesn’t have any added sugar content, this will actually help to prevent cavities from occurring. This is because the action of chewing gum helps to stimulate the mouth to produce more saliva. This results in the excess saliva helping to neutralise the negative effects that acid can have of the teeth. The ADA's seal of approval If you want to start chewing gum for these benefits, make sure you choose a sugar-free label where it is clearly stated on the packaging. Alternatively, go with the ADA’s recommended seal of approval products. When given the ADA seal of acceptance, products are rigorously and effectively tested prior to this. Therefore, we strongly recommended you go with tried-and-tested products that have notable evidence to back them up. As a further note, chewing gum may have its perks, but it is in no way a replacement for regular daily brushing, which should be done twice a day with a fluoride-based toothpaste. Only brushing and flossing will have the best benefits for your oral health, as it is the most effective method for reducing plaque build-up in and around the mouth. Unsure about your dental health?

With dental decay at an all-time high, it’s time to start cracking down on the problem. The amount of sugar that we are consuming. How well we are taking care of our oral health on a daily basis. These are all things that first require people to be educated.
With dental decay at an all-time high, it’s time to start cracking down on the problem. The amount of sugar that we are consuming. How well we are taking care of our oral health on a daily basis. These are all things that first require people to be educated. Independent, non-profit organisation – the Oral Health Foundation – have kick-started a new initiative, ‘Better oral health for all’. This initiative aims to improve general awareness of good oral hygiene practices. It will also provide political activism to influence government policies. It comes at a time when roughly half of British adults are suffering from tooth decay, and one in four children are starting school with similar these issues (OHF). In fact, it is the most chronic disease in the world. With it affecting so many adults and children, steps must be made to improve awareness around the dangers of dental decay – as it can be life-threatening. The Oral Health Foundations has worked for over 50 years to make massive changed to the health standards that we currently have. But they aren't done yet. It is shown in the figures that more improvements still need to be made in order to make and cultivate a healthier future for everyone. The 'Better oral health for all' strategy aims to have accomplished changes by 2024. This includes setting up places for people to find complimentary support and advice on dental health, developing a range of educational materials for various types of audiences, and influencing policies that will lead to a healthier future for everyone. Without the help and support of others, the Oral Health Foundations couldn't have impacted society as it has done for 50 or more years. To support the ‘Better oral health for all’ initiative, you can donate, fundraise, or even sponsor the organisation. Show your support and share their positive messages to help raise awareness.

Dental anxiety among patient is an incredibly difficult problem that many people suffer with. Not only can it affect a patient’s likelihood to visit the dentist for important treatment, but it also hinders the potential improvements that a dentist can bring to someone’s life.
Dental anxiety among patient is an incredibly difficult problem that many people suffer with. Not only can it affect a patient’s likelihood to visit the dentist for important treatment, but it also hinders the potential improvements that a dentist can bring to someone’s life. The patient at the centre of this case study heads a large, corporate sales team, so the way he looked and felt was key to his success. After years of neglect, his teeth were discoloured, crooked, and his older veneers had become worn and unnatural-looking. When Dr Bagasi first met with this patient, he spent a lot of time discussing his difficulties – as the patient previously had an unpleasant experience with his dentist as a child, leaving him with anxiety towards dentists. After Dr Bagasi restored some faith in this man, they began to discuss next steps and possible treatments, all while thinking about the best options for this patient’s circumstances. Three main treatments were proposed to the patient. One was to have the remaining lower front teeth extracted and replaced with secure implants and bridgework. The patient also needed his old veneers replacing and his back teeth whitening to make sure his smile felt brand new from every angle. Assessment Stage Having a CT scan taken of the patient allows surgeons and the dentist to have a clearer picture of the patient’s current oral health, which is why they are often preferred. The CT scanner also allows the surgeons a unique insight into the surgery. This ‘keyhole’ like approach enables the surgeons to plan the patient’s surgery with the least amount of potential risks and complications. A full report was written up to conclude on the diagnosis and proposed treatment options, costs, timescales, risks/benefits. After all of this was confirmed and given the all-clear, the implant placement appointment was booked. In the meantime, measurements are usually taken of the patient to construct either a temporary bridge or dentures, which can then be used after the implants have been placed. This assures each patient will be able to walk away with new teeth after their surgical appointment. Implant Placement Stage The implant treatment was very simple, consisting of fitting two Straumann implants in the lower front jaw. This generally doesn’t take long – roughly 30-45 minutes per implant depending on the complexity of the procedure. The appointment was fully discussed with the patient, making him better about the treatment. It was necessary for Dr Bagasi to take the patient's anxiety into consideration. The patient undergoing his implant surgery Healing Stage Before any further progress could be made on the implant-retained lower bridge, a 3-month healing period was needed. The bone first needed to bond with the implants, as unnecessary strain on the implants could cause complications. Crown Stage While the healing process was ongoing, Dr Bagasi planned this patient’s treatment. This meant that an appointment was booked to have his old veneers removed and new crowns replaced. The old tooth surface we refined and polished to make sure the new crowns fit as precisely as possible. The patient's old veneers had been removed, newly refined, and polished Once impressions are taken, temporary bridgework is then placed, which resembles the final tooth shape and position. Further to this, a VIP appointment was then booked with our technicians that construct the crowns. This ensures that the shade and size of the teeth were recorded and discussed with the patient every step of the way. The final crowns were then fitted within a week. It is very important to plan the crowns and bridgework from the start and plan it accurately such that we can ensure the bite is created and the patient can enjoy their meals properly. Impression Stage The last stage, before the final fit, means having posts placed into the implants. This measures where the implants are exactly in the patient’s mouth, which will play a role in how the bridgework is fitted. Posts are inserted into the healed implants Further to this, a customised impression tray is used. These steps are important before the crowns are permanently fitted to the bridgework. Final Fit The final fit left this patient with a new set of gold-quality veneers, an implant-retained lower bridge, and newly-whitened back molars. This had a fantastic effect on the patient's social and professional life, but it also has a huge impact on changing his anxiety towards dentists. Although the whole process consisted of three main treatment types, it was designed to work well together to deliver the best smile for Dr Bagasi’s patient. Unsure about your dental health?

It is well documented that the effect of sugar on our teeth isn’t pretty. We’re taught from a young age that we should keep sugar to a minimum to maintain a healthy lifestyle, yet the BBC suggests that children suffering from tooth decay in England are at an all-time high.
It is well documented that the effect of sugar on our teeth isn’t pretty. We’re taught from a young age that we should keep sugar to a minimum to maintain a healthy lifestyle, yet the BBC suggests that children suffering from tooth decay in England are at an all-time high. The article goes on the discuss more facts and figures surrounding the current controversy. It states that hospital administrations from patients between 5-to-9-years-old consist primarily of tooth decay cases. Although, 41% of under-18-year-olds didn’t visit the dentist last year. This figure goes even lower as the age decreases, which highlights the importance of bringing awareness to dental treatment for children. When Should a Child See a Dentist? A younger child should have a check-up at or before their first birthday (or when their first tooth erupts), as suggested by the British Society of Paediatric Dentistry in their Dental Check by One oral health campaign. This allows the dentist to assess your child’s current oral health – which could reflect their future oral health – but it also allows your child to become more accustomed to their dentist from a younger age. This is important if you want to reduce the chances of your child growing up with a form of dental anxiety. More Action? The Faculty of Dental Surgery of the Royal College of Surgeons are pushing specific recommendations (BBC News): introduce supervised teeth-brushing schemes by 2022 making schools completely sugar-free reducing the sugar content from commercial baby foods limiting the advertising on high-sugar products Implementing these changes is a sure way of reducing the likelihood of children having excess sugar in their diet. In turn, this should reduce the risk of damage from exposing children’s teeth to frequent sugar attacks. Further to this, the BDA is calling for more investments in oral health programmes too. It is said (BBC News) that oral health programmes should be invested into in order encourage children to maintain healthy oral habits – ones that they will develop at an early age and carry through the rest of their lives.

Living with dentures can damage patients' self-esteem and even affect eating habits. Interestingly, they are a cost-effective solution for patients with missing teeth. Needless to say, it can be an incredibly bittersweet experience.
Living with dentures can damage patients' self-esteem and even affect eating habits. Interestingly, they are a cost-effective solution for patients with missing teeth. Needless to say, it can be an incredibly bittersweet experience. Synergy Dental Group, like many dental practices, gets an inflow of patients with major denture issues. Mary is just one of those patients who came in to see Dr Bagasi about her discomfort. She had loosely fitted dentures – ones she worried would fall out when she spoke or ate. This, in turn, made Mary fearful of going out and socialising even with her family. After years of discomfort and embarrassment, she was finally ready to find an alternative. Dr Bagasi took into consideration her current situation, including difficulties and fears. Instead, Dr Bagasi decided on an implant-retained overdenture to give the utmost comfort to Mary. Assessment Stage As with any surgical procedure at Synergy Dental, a rigorous assessment and background check must first be completed. For Mary, a CT scanned image assessed her suitability for implant surgery. The CT scanner allowed the surgeons to assess the bone level, potential infection, nerve and sinus positions. All these factors play a role in assessing a patient’s suitability so surgery. The CT scanned image also allowed for a ‘keyhole’ type of approach during surgery. This allows the surgeons to be more precise when fitting the implants into the jawline – with it also minimising potential complications during the procedure. The CT scanned image used for Mary's treatment A full report complied for the patient gave insight into the treatment, which included the proposed treatment, costs, timescale, risks and benefits, among other factors which will play a role in the treatment. Mary was happy to proceed with the treatment, and she was definitely eager for her brand-new smile! Implant Placement Stage The implant placement appointment got organised, so it was only a matter of time before Mary could have her new set of teeth. The procedure was simple and straight forward; it consisted of fitting four Osstem implants within the lower jaw. The implants are in place to provide posterior stability to the overall denture. Mary's implant surgery completed The abutments get placed onto the implants. This is the feature that allows the denture to be semi-permanent, it generally creates more comfort and confidence for the patient. Final Fitting Stage The final denture work was created to fit perfectly for Mary’s mouth. This is standard procedure, and the dentures were created to fit comfortably on the implants and abutments previously fitted. Mary was incredibly happy with the final result of the treatment. Upon her initial appointment, she got a cost-effective solution to her current dentures and worked closely with Dr Bagasi and the Synergy Blackpool team to achieve the best smile possible. No longer worried about her dental prosthetic falling out, Mary was free to enjoy time with her family and friends once again, but the option to remove the overdentures was there for her convenience. This is what Mary had to say about her experience with Synergy and her treatment: https://www. youtube. com/watch? v=BxOqatrrJiE Unsure about your dental health?

Fear of the dentist’s office, just like the fear of going to see the doctor, is a completely rational one. It’s commonly referred to as dental anxiety, and most adults have probably experienced something similar. Whether it's the noise of the dental drill as you’re sat in the waiting area or the dentist’s hands wandering around your mouth, many of us find the dentist terrifying.
Fear of the dentist’s office, just like the fear of going to see the doctor, is a completely rational one. It’s commonly referred to as dental anxiety, and most adults have probably experienced something similar. Whether it's the noise of the dental drill as you’re sat in the waiting area or the dentist’s hands wandering around your mouth, many of us find the dentist terrifying. Well for a younger child, these fears and phobias can present themselves far more intensely. It can be an incredibly traumatic experience for then, and they are hesitant to do it without putting up a fight. Fortunately, there are a few things you could do to prevent your child from being overly anxious at the dentist. 1. Be brave for your child One thing you can do that will make your child’s visits a lot easier is showing them that there isn’t anything to worry about. As we mentioned earlier, a lot of adults suffer from dental anxiety, but children are very impressionable. If your child sees that you’re frightened yourself, they’re bound to find the experience a lot more distressing. 2. Be calm and understanding with them It’s very easy to lose your temper with the little ones. After a long, stressful day at work, you’re probably not ready for an all-out war at the dentist’s office, trying to get your little one in the chair. Just be understanding with them, comfort them, and assure them that there isn’t anything to worry about. 3. Arrange a meeting with their dentist Getting to know your dentist before a visit can make all the difference for a child. It could also give the dentist a chance to learn a bit about your child and get to know how bad their anxiety is. Many dentists will be more than happy to arrange this if you explain the circumstances, as it lets the child get to know the dentist under more comfortable conditions, to begin with. 4. If all else fails, seek a specialist If you think you’ve tried everything you possibly can, but your child is still making dentist appointments difficult, you should look at booking in with a specialist paediatric dentist. These dentists are training in providing the best dental care for small children. Their offices also tend to be designed so they can accommodate children and will make the visits more fun. In any case, a child fear of the dentist may take a while to grow out of. Dentists will suggest a child are sees a dentist for a check-up by the age of 1 at the latest (see Dental Check by One). Not only is it incredibly important for their future oral health, but it also gets children used to the dentist at an early age, which will greatly reduce the potential for them growing up afraid of going to the dentist.

> Michael was recommended to have his remaining afflicted teeth removed and to have a permanent upper implant-retained bridge fitted

Losing teeth can be a difficult and stressful time in anyone’s life. Statistically speaking, 2.63% of adults aged 20 to 34 have no remaining teeth, while this figure goes up to 10.13% when looking at the age range of 50 to 64 (NIH). Dentists are, thankfully, well prepared these problems, and they aim to make the treatment as non-intrusive and quick as possible.
Losing teeth can be a difficult and stressful time in anyone’s life. Statistically speaking, 2. 63% of adults aged 20 to 34 have no remaining teeth, while this figure goes up to 10. 13% when looking at the age range of 50 to 64 (NIH). Dentists are, thankfully, well prepared these problems, and they aim to make the treatment as non-intrusive and quick as possible. One of Synergy’s former patients, Michael, was a self-referral to Dr Bagasi. At 31 years old, Michael’s teeth suffered from neglect and poor dental hygiene for many years, and this led him to book a visit with the Synergy team. After suffering from discomfort with his current denture, his situation escalated to the onset of periodontal disease. Michael was recommended to have his remaining afflicted teeth removed and to have a permanent upper implant-retained bridge fitted. Which initiated the relevant stages to get his new set of teeth. Assessment Stage An important part of any implant treatment is the assessment stage, and this was no different for Michael. A CT scanned assessment was done of the patient so that Dr Bagasi could assess the patient’s bone level, potential infections, nerve position, and more. This assessment confirmed that Michael’s circumstances were suited for implant surgery and was given the all-clear to go forward with the treatment. The CT scanned image also forms part of Synergy's surgery methods. Having a ‘keyhole’ like approach to surgery, Dr Bagasi was able to reduce the risks and potential complications for Michael’s treatment. A final report summed up everything for Michael, including the diagnosis, the treatment being proposed, cost, timescale, risks, and benefits. Implant Appointment Michael and Dr Bagasi completed each of the prerequisite tasks with ease. In a very short time frame, they had made the surgical implant placement appointment, which can be booked for either the full morning or the full afternoon. Fitting the implants is very simple and took approximately 30 minutes for Dr Bagasi to complete each implant. The surgery went very smoothly and to plan, and with the help of Synergy's CT guided surgery method, Michael had marginally less swelling and discomfort than what would have been the case if the surgery had taken place without it. After treatment, the patient can have either a temporary denture or a temporary fixed bridge. Michael decided on a temporary bridge, which allowed him to walk home after the implant surgery with a new pair for teeth. Healing Stage After implant treatments, patients are given the correct care advise, which includes giving the implants time to heal and integrate correctly with the bone. This process takes roughly 3 months to complete, but with temporary bridges fitted (or dentures in some circumstances), Michael wasn’t left without teeth, and he was able to go about his life feeling much more confident. Impressions and Testing Stage Once healing is complete, the bridge then needs to be constructed completely uniquely for your mouth. Michael was back in 3 months ready for the impressions stage of the treatment. This began with posts being placed into the implants to measure where the implants were positioned. A full impression, using a completely customised impression tray, was then done. This allowed the bridge to be fully customised to Michael’s mouth. The next stage was to verify the milled titanium framework with a Duralay Jig. This was constructed and tried in the mouth. During the final step, a special bite tray was used to complete a bite registration – used to assess the lip support, length of the new teeth, how your top and bottom jaw bite together, and a general smile evaluation. Final Fit Stage This is the final stage on the journey that patients take to receive their new smile. Michael was particularly excited, as he was one step closer to the completion of life-changing treatment. During this stage, a wax mock-up of the patient’s teeth so was created. From mimicking the desired natural look to assessing the desired shade of the teeth, this mock-up stage allowed Dr Bagasi to see how the new smile fit Michael’s face. Michael was also shown his new smile to make sure he was happy with the results as well. The titanium framework was then fully fitted together with the bridge. Before and After The treatment left Michael feeling like a new man. With his new, permanent smile, Michael was incredibly happy with the change from using an uncomfortable denture and being in a lot of pain from neglecting his teeth. The new, fitted bridge looks considerably more natural and comfortable than the previous denture. Just take a look! Unsure about your dental health?

Having a chipped tooth is one of the leading issues for patients in any dental clinic, and it really isn’t the most pleasant experience to deal with. Incidents with tooth chips – which can arise from biting hard foods or physical injury – can range from minor to serious. It all depends on your personal situation. There are many options to fix cracked teeth no matter what incident you’ve experienced.
Having a chipped tooth is one of the leading issues for patients in any dental clinic, and it really isn’t the most pleasant experience to deal with. Incidents with tooth chips – which can arise from biting hard foods or physical injury – can range from minor to serious. It all depends on your personal situation. There are many options to fix cracked teeth no matter what incident you’ve experienced. Consulting a dentist will be the first step on the journey to fixing any chipped teeth, as they will know the best course of action based on your situation. The extent of damage that a chip can cause is not always noticeable to the average layman, so seeking professional advice is very important. Dental bonding Quick, simple, and cost-effective! Dental bonding will bethe go-to for many patients – whether their teeth are gapped, misshapen, discoloured,or chipped. The treatment is also minimally invasive and causes little to nodiscomfort. The first step is usually applying the mould straight to the necessary area. Once the mould has dried, the area is polished and shaped to match the rest of the tooth. It’s that simple! Veneers Veneers can be slightly more time consuming, but it is a solution that can often make people feel more satisfied when faced with a chipped tooth. Porcelain veneers (although other materials are on offer) are bonded to the front of your tooth and can last upwards of 30 years if cared for correctly. The treatment initially involves removing some of the structure of the pre-existing tooth, then creating impressions to help the shaping process of the veneers. Patients typically have full input during this process so they are happy with the colour and design. Creating the veneers correctly cannot be done during the initial appointment and could take more than a few visits to achieve the perfect results. Dental Implants Unfortunately, more serious chips, that have cracked deep under the gum line, cannot be salvaged and your options are very limited. This will mean your tooth more than likely needs extracting and replacing. It's vital that a tooth is replaced when it's removed. Other teeth in that area could begin to shift around it. Although more costly, slightly more invasive, and longer treatment time, dental implants are the best solution to this type of issue. The process of treatment is a little more extensive, and preliminary checks and reports will be produced by your dentist. Your procedure will be booked separately, and the replacement tooth itself will be made uniquely for each patient. Unsure about your dental health?

Dental implants are an incredible opportunity. They offer people with missing teeth a permeant solution. The laboratory puts them together carefully to fit everybody's mouth uniquely. If you aren’t happy with alternative solutions (such as dentures), read more of this patient’s implant story, and find out if the treatment is for you. This Synergy patient, who has preferred to remain anonymous, made a self-referral to our clinic. She was inquiring about a fixed solution to her missing front tooth. Like many, this patient was becoming increasingly conscious of her denture, and it was beginning to affect her confidence at work and with her family and friends. She used Synergy’s secure online booking system to get a direct appointment with Dr Bagasi. This began the initial stage once the patient confirmed she was happy to progress. The first step for dental implants The patient was admittedly slightly apprehensive about the process. Dr Bagasi was fantastic in making sure she was completely comfortable. Everything was explained to her thoroughly before the procedure went further. Her suitability for dental implant surgery was first taken into consideration. The patient's initial x-ray. After a full assessment of the patient’s health and suitability, Dr Bagasi began taking photos and x-rays. CT scanning is an alternative when the procedure has the risk of having a more invasive effect on the patient. Dr Bagasi then gave the patient the final report and approve. This report includes information such as the diagnosis and proposed treatment options, costing, timescales, risks and benefits. This is an important part of every procedure, which reflects Synergy’s transparency. The patient's original smile. Part of the initial stage involves having a custom-made denture created for each patient. This can then be used as a substitute for before the surgery and during the healing process. This didn’t apply for the patient in question, though, as she already had a denture made to fit. Fitting the dental implant The actual procedure was very simple to complete. Due to the patient only needing a single implant, the surgery took no longer than 20 minutes. The surgery was completed while the patient was under local anaesthetic. The patient's fitted implant. Every patient must first go through a period of healing. So, unfortunately, the patients are not able to have the actual crown fitted until this healing process is fully complete. This is a precaution to avoid possible complications after surgery and to allow the implant to integrate correctly. Healing dental implants The single dental implant procedure had little risk of being invasive. In fact, the patient was up and back to work the next day after surgery. The implant began to heal and integrate correctly with the bone (minimum 3-month period). This period is important and put into place to avoid complications with the new implant because applying pressure to a new implant could increase the risk of failure. During this 3-month period, Dr Bagasi and the team kept in regular contact with the patient. Each dentist will always do this to avoid making any of our patients feel alone during their healing time. This also allows the patient to easily ask any question or queries during this process. Refinements After the 3-month period, the fitting of all the components began, including the titanium post (which can also be made from Zirconia if required) and the porcelain crown. The images below show how Dr Bagasi scaled all these components onto a mould first. The next step was to fit these parts permanently. Aftercare After all the treatment was complete, Dr Bagasi offered additional maintenance services from the team. If for any reason a patient didn't take this offer, Dr Bagasi would've explained the relevant self-care and maintenance the implant needs. If they were a referral patient, their discharge letter would have been given to their regular dentist for further advice. All in all, the patient was incredibly happy with the results from Dr Bagasi and gave her stamp of approval to Synergy for the excellent service and treatment she received. Take a look at how different this patient's smile is below. Unsure about your dental health? Call your nearest Synergy Dental Clinic and we’ll be happy to help.

Reasons to have a Dental Computerised Tomography: Dental implant surgery planning. Evaluate the bone structure. Determine if a bone graft is required. Locate nerve canals. Wisdom tooth surgery.
Why do dentists take CT scans? Your dentist may use this helpful technology for a range of reasons. A CT scan can produce three dimensional (3-D) images of your teeth, soft tissues, nerve pathways and bone in a single scan, letting us diagnose a range of issues that may not have been clear on a visual exam. With Cone Beam scanner technology becoming more affordable, more dental practices can now use this advanced piece of equipment. It is primarily used for the following purposes: To plan accurate placement of dental implants prior to surgery. Evaluation of bone quantity prior to dental implant placement, particularly with regards to sinus location and determination of possible grafting/sinus lift treatments. Evaluation and location of vital nerve canals prior to dental implant placement. Planning of surgical extraction of impacted wisdom teeth. Detection and monitoring of jaw tumors. Locating and identifying pathological origins of chronic pain. Your dentist will advise you if they think a CT scan is needed. As all of our facilities have a CT scanner on premises, we won’t need to send you away to hospital for these scans and can usually get them done on the same day.

Composite Bonding is the application of a tooth-coloured composite resin (plastic) to repair a decayed, chipped, fractured or discoloured tooth. Unlike veneers, which are manufactured in a laboratory, bonding can be done in a single visit. Watch Katie having her smile digitally scanned and improved.
What is composite bonding? Composite bonding is the use of composite material that is bonded to teeth in order to reshape, rebuild, or fill damaged teeth. It is a very simple cosmetic procedure, but it also has a huge amount of potential for different kinds of repairs. By bonding composite materials to the teeth, dentists are able to shape certain teeth to their original appearance – including matching the colour to your existing teeth. What is the treatment process? The treatment itself is very simple, and it can normally be done in just one simple appointment with your dentist. It requires your dentist to first match the colour of the composite resin with the rest of your teeth. This will ensure that the smile will be consistent and look as natural as possible. The surface of the tooth will then be roughened and coated with a bonding agent, to which the resin will adhere to. The resin will then be placed onto the area required and moulded into the correct shape. The last touches will consist of curing the composite resin and refining the tooth further. Why would I need composite bonding? What makes composite bonding such a requested treatment for many patients is its effectiveness in resolving a variety of cosmetic dental issues. There are alternatives out there, such as veneers and crowns, but composite bonding can benefit patients because it is a much simpler and much more cost-effective solution to those other treatments. A patient may want to look more into composite bonding if they are struggling with chipped teeth, fractures, or another cosmetic improvement to the teeth. It is likely, if the damage is minor and easily fixed, that your dentist will recommend this treatment over more expensive treatments. Dental bonding can also be used to match the colour of certain teeth with the colour of your other teeth (i. e. if you had one or more particularly discoloured teeth). What are the advantages? Many patients will be limited with the amount they can spend and may, also, want to avoid any invasive treatments. With veneers and crowns, there is a level of invasion that a patient will need to be aware of. For example, parts of the teeth will need to be permanently removed in order to get these treatments. This is not the case for bonding treatment, as the structure of the permanent teeth will remain intact and only the composite material will be refined once it is hardened onto the tooth.

> Retainers are the final stage of most orthodontic treatments. They are ordinarily required to maintain the position of straightened teeth.

- Product tags: Retainers
Retainers are used for post-orthodontic treatment, and will usually be the final step patients will go through to having achieved straighter teeth. Once a brace is removed, teeth will naturally want to move back into their original position, so retainers are used to maintain the desired look for much longer.
What Are Teeth Retainers? Teeth retainers are normally recommended after orthodontic treatment: this can be standard metal braces or clear aligners such as Invisalign. During teeth straightening treatment with braces, your teeth are moved to create a straight smile. This process of moving teeth can result in the roots and the gums loosening around the tooth, increasing the risk of your teeth moving back to their old position - this is called orthodontic relapse. Teeth retainers are designed to keep your teeth in their final position whilst the bones and gums heal to hold your teeth tightly in their new position. Retainers are not made to move your teeth, rather to hold them still whilst they settle into their new position. Teeth retainers can be made from a variety of materials, and are commonly made from metal or from plastic. What Types Of Teeth Retainers Are There? There are a few different options for retainers after orthodontic treatment, but retainers generally fall into 2 categories: removable and fixed/permanent retainers. At Synergy, we offer both fixed permanent retainers and clear removable retainers. Permanent retainers are made with a wire and are bonded to the back of the teeth - making it invisible when you smile! Our removable retainers are made from clear plastic and are barely visible, making them a popular choice for people who have had Invisalign treatment. They look and feel similar to Invisalign aligners. How Do I Know Which Type Of Retainer Is Right For Me? Knowing what retainer is right for you can be difficult, but your Synergy dentist can help you make a decision. Some benefits of a fixed permanent retainer include: Long lasting - can last up to 20 years with proper care Durable and rarely need replacing Not visible from the front of the teeth Fixed to your teeth - so you can't forget to wear it! Fixed retainers do come with some drawbacks though. They can be less comfortable than removable retainers at first, especially if you’re used to the feeling of Invisalign rather than metal braces. Permanent retainers can only be taken off by a dentist, so they can also be more difficult to clean and can trap food and bacteria between the retainer and your teeth, meaning you have to take extra care when brushing to ensure your teeth and retainers are clean. Permanent retainers can also be damaged by certain foods, just like traditional braces, so you may have to avoid hard and crunchy foods like raw carrots or sticky foods like toffees and chewing gum. If you don’t like the sound of a fixed retainer, removable retainers are an alternative option. Some benefits of removable retainers include: Clear and nearly invisible, making them a popular choice for Invisalign patients Removable for events, eating, and drinking Easier to keep clean More comfortable than wire retainers No need to change your diet or avoid foods you love! Removable retainers are popular due to their ease of use, but because they can be easily removed by the patient, lots of people forget to wear their retainer leading to their teeth moving back to their old position over time. Removable retainers are also made of plastic, and are less durable than the metal used for fixed retainers. What works for you will usually be decided by your dentist. If you have had metal braces or a fixed retainer and found them uncomfortable, a removable retainer may be a more comfortable option for you. If you have a busy lifestyle or feel you might forget to wear your retainer, your dentist might recommend a fixed permanent retainer to keep your teeth aligned properly. FAQ Are Teeth Retainers Really Necessary After Braces? Yes! Teeth retainers are absolutely necessary after braces to prevent your teeth from moving back to their old positions, especially for adults who are more likely to suffer from orthodontic relapse. Children and teenagers have more malleable bones and will heal faster after orthodontic treatment, but will still need to wear a retainer to maintain their smile results. If you have a removable retainer, wearing your retainer regularly for the first 6 months is vital to ensure your teeth stay in their new positions and your smile stays straight. After the first 6 months, your dentist will review your progress and give you advice on how often to wear your retainer in the future. How Long Do I Need To Wear My Retainers For? How long you need to spend wearing your retainers will vary from patient to patient. More severe misalignments where the teeth have been moved by a larger amount will generally need to wear their retainers for longer. The first 6 months to 1 year after orthodontic treatment is the most crucial, as this is the period when patients are more likely to suffer from orthodontic relapse. Fixed retainers are worn all the time and cannot be taken out, so there’s no need to worry about how long you need to wear them for, because you’re always wearing them. People with removable retainers tend to wear their retainers overnight after the first 6 months, though some people may be advised to continue to wear their removable retainers all the time. Whilst some people stop wearing their retainers sometime after finishing their orthodontic treatment, it’s preferable to wear a retainer continually after treatment. Maintaining a straight smile is a lifelong commitment, and wearing a retainer helps to keep your teeth in place. How Do I Keep My Retainer Clean? Keeping your retainer clean is easy with a little bit of knowledge and practice. Removable retainers can be easily kept clean. Simply brush your removable retainer gently with a non-abrasive toothpaste and a soft bristled toothbrush at the same time as you brush your teeth (twice daily) and disinfect your retainer once a week with a special cleaning solution or as recommended by your dentist. Be careful what you use to clean your removable retainers as some chemicals can discolour, stain, or damage your retainer. Never use boiling water as this can change the shape of your retainer and affect the fit. Take your retainer out to eat or drink anything except water, and rinse your mouth with water before putting your retainer back in. Fixed or permanent retainers can be a little tougher to clean, as they are attached to your teeth and cannot be removed for cleaning. Brush your fixed permanent retainer gently as part of your toothbrushing routine, taking extra care to make sure to brush the retainer on all sides. Carefully brush underneath your retainer and between your teeth with a floss threader or an interdental brush to remove any cavity-causing bacteria. Your dentist may also recommend a special toothbrush for cleaning your fixed retainer. You can also help keep your retainer free from food particles by rinsing your mouth a few times with clean drinking water immediately after meals. What Will Happen If I Don't Wear My Removable Retainer? It’s okay to take your removable retainer out or choose not to wear your removable retainer for a few hours for an event, but forgetting your retainer long term can cause your misalignment to return. If you haven’t been wearing your removable retainer as much as you should be, your teeth will usually begin to shift back to their original positions. If you remember to start wearing your removable retainer again quickly (for example, you forget your retainer on holiday and start wearing it again when you get home) then your teeth should stay in their straight position without too much harm done. If you find that after a while of forgetting to wear your retainer, your retainer now doesn’t fit anymore, see your dentist for further advice. In the worst case scenario, forgetting to wear your retainer may mean you need to go back to wearing braces. My Removable Retainer Doesn’t Fit, Can I Wear It Anyway? If you haven't worn your removable retainer for a while and your teeth have started to misalign to the point where your retainer no longer fits properly, starting to wear your retainer again will not straighten your teeth. If your removable retainer doesn’t fit anymore, continuing to wear it can lead to discomfort, soreness, ulcers, cuts in the mouth, and even tooth damage. If your retainer doesn’t fit properly anymore, feels uncomfortable, or looks worn, it’s a good indicator that it’s time to get your removable retainer replaced. I’ve Had Braces From A Different Dentist, Can I Still Get A Retainer From Synergy? Of course you can! We’re happy to help any patients. You may choose to come to us for a different type of retainer, for example if your orthodontist doesn't offer a removable retainer, or you might want to see us for a new retainer. No matter your reason for choosing Synergy, we’re happy to support our patients.

> Veneers are a thin layer of porcelain designed to fit over the front surface of a tooth to mask the imperfections. Holly Hagan Veneers Review

Veneers are a celebrity-go-to and one of the simplest ways of achieving improvements in colour, shape, and position of teeth. Patients with chipped, gapped, mislaigned, or stained teeth can breathe a sigh of relief, as cosmetic restoration doesn't get much simpler!
What are Veneers? Veneers are a cosmetic treatment made from a thin layer of porcelain designed to fit over the front surface of a tooth to mask the imperfections that could be making you feel self-conscious. They’re an ideal solution to chipped teeth or discolouration. Another alternative may be our Nano-Hybrid composite bonding (LINK). Your dentist will advise on what treatment is best for your needs. Veneers are often used to: Improve the colour, shape and position of teeth. • Cover or rebuild a tooth chip. • Close gaps in between front teeth. • Bring a tooth in line with others. • Cover discoloration and staining. The treatment process The treatment process for getting veneers is usually quite simple and straightforward. It rarely takes more than two appointments to complete. Preparation may be required before the fitting of the veneers. If so, the dentist will need to establish how much enamel needs to be shaven off each tooth. Our Synergy dentists use a modified preparation technique including high tech digital planning, to ensure that no excess enamel is removed from the surface of the tooth, minimising damage. We will do this for every tooth that your veneers will cover. Typically between 0. 3mm to 1mm of tooth is prepared. The surface and edges of your teeth will be refined using composite finishing burs. This will allow for a smoother finish and will avoid leaving ledges or sharp areas, which could cause an inaccurate scan of your teeth. Final impressions will then be taken and sent off to the Synergy Dental lab for construction. A temporary set of veneers are fitted onto your teeth which will resemble the final shape and size of the new veneers. At this stage, you are able to visually view the veneers and also recommend any changes before we start manufacturing your final veneers. Fitting your Dental Veneers is the final stage of your treatment. We will fit your veneers using a composite bonding technique. The tooth surface will be etched with phosphoric acid for 30 seconds. The bonding agent will then be applied to the tooth surface along with NXS 3 cement being placed into the filling surface of the veneer. The veneers will then be applied to the prepared area and spot cured. Finally, excess cement will be removed. Veneer material options Veneers can be made from a variety of materials to suit the patient. Porcelain is the material traditionally used for veneers and is the most stain resistant as well as the most natural finish. On the other hand, composite materials don’t provide a finish as natural as that of porcelain, but can be completed in 1 treatment session. No Prep Veneers No Prep Veneers are porcelain veneers which are engineered to fit over your tooth surface without the need of any preparations. We use ultra-thin compressed porcelain for these veneers. Sometimes known as Emax veneers.

Benefits of sedation: Patient relaxation Increased comfort Movement control Patient co-operation Control of gag reflex Little or no memory of treatment Time-saving - Fewer appointments needed
What Is Intravenous Sedation? Intravenous sedation (commonly called IV sedation or conscious sedation) helps keep nervous patients relaxed during their visit. Unlike general anaesthetic (GA), which renders patients unconscious and can only be given in hospitals, IV sedation lets you stay awake - this means you can answer questions and follow instructions during your treatment without feeling any pain. During IV sedation, a sedative agent is added to your bloodstream by a qualified member of the Synergy team, sending you into a state of relaxation. Why Would I Need Intravenous Sedation? If you are particularly worried about a treatment or have a severe phobia of the dentist, IV sedation is an excellent option to allow you to still attend your appointment. Is Intravenous Sedation Safe? Intravenous sedation is completely safe. The sedative agent will be administered by a specially trained member of our Synergy team who will remain on hand throughout the entire procedure. After your IV sedation, you may feel woozy or tired, and may not be fully aware of your surroundings. Do not drive or operate machinery after IV sedation. Make sure you have somebody to take you to and from your appointment and monitor you at home. My Dentist Does Not Offer Intravenous Sedation, What Should I Do? Most general dental practitioners do not undertake sedation. There are additional qualifications and training as well as special surgery setup and equipment required to be able to perform sedation in general practice. Dental nurses also need to undertake additional qualifications to assist in treatments using IV sedation, meaning most dental practices are unable to offer this service. At Synergy, we invest in our team members and provide this additional training, allowing us to offer more options for our patients that other dental clinics may not have available. If you would like to be referred for any treatment with us at Synergy Dental Clinic, you can ask your dentist to arrange a referral. Alternatively, you can also self-refer by contacting one of our clinics directly.

Partial dentures are a cost-effective way of replacing a few missing teeth from one jaw. This solution often yields long-lasting, positive results and works great for supporting facial muscles and avoid alterations to the face over time.
What Are Partial Dentures? Partial dentures are a solution for missing teeth that are usually made from a combination of plastic and metal. They consist of a false gum and false teeth, and are designed to fit around any remaining natural teeth left in the mouth. Our partial dentures are professionally made dental prosthesis, bespoke crafted to fit your individual needs as a patient. Who Are Partial Dentures For? Partial dentures are for anyone missing some teeth in their mouth. They can replace one tooth, a group of missing teeth, or even missing teeth in several places in the mouth using a single partial denture that connects each group of missing teeth. Partial dentures are a more affordable option to replace missing teeth than dental bridges or dental implants and are a much less invasive procedure, requiring little to no modification of the remaining natural teeth. This makes partial dentures an excellent choice for patients who are unable to undergo the surgical procedure required for dental implants. Partial dentures are also removable for easy cleaning unlike a dental bridge, making them a good option for patients who want a beautiful smile, improved speech, and improved ability to chew without the more involved maintenance routine. What Are The Different Types Of Partial Dentures? We offer several different options, allowing for fully customisable partial denture choices to suit every possible patient need! Our partial dentures come in three different material options, and can all be tailored to fit the number of teeth you need. Acrylic Partial Dentures: Made from a type of medical plastic, acrylic partial dentures are lightweight, durable, and very affordable. Their pink colour mimics the appearance of natural gums and protects the gum underneath from damage, though they are much thicker than metal partial dentures and can therefore be more visible in the mouth. Metal Partial Dentures: Made from medical grade materials, metal partial dentures are much stronger than acrylic. They can be made much thinner than acrylic partial dentures and last a lot longer, but can look unnatural in the mouth due to the visible metal. They can be more costly, but are more comfortable than acrylic partial dentures. Valplast Flexible Partial Dentures: Valplast flexible partial dentures are the ultimate partial denture. Valplast’s signature thermoplastic and nylon base offers durability coupled with flexibility for superior comfort. These almost invisible partial dentures have the most natural appearance in the mouth as they do not need metal clips to stay in place in the mouth. In addition to offering different material types, our acrylic and metal partial dentures come in a range of material qualities. Our Bronze quality materials are a cost effective solution for those who are looking for a more affordable partial denture without compromising on quality. Our Gold quality partial denture materials offer a wider range of natural gum shades, as well as teeth shades designed to match your existing teeth with natural looking shade variations and translucency. Our acrylic and metal partial dentures can both be produced in either a bronze or Gold quality standard, creating affordable partial dentures for every patient. We can also apply finance options for partial dentures treatment, allowing for everyone to have a confident smile. About Valplast Flexible Partial Dentures Valplast flexible partial dentures are some of the most comfortable partial dentures available on the market. Made using a unique combination of thermoplastic resin and nylon, Valplast flexible partial dentures are metal free, making them the prefect partial dentures for metal allergy sufferers. Instead of using metal clips to attach to the teeth, Valplast partial dentures clip onto the teeth with a natural pink nylon material. Valplast partial dentures are ultra-thin compared to acrylic partial dentures and are almost invisible in the mouth, making them the best cosmetic partial dentures. They are also much more comfortable thanks to their flexible nylon base that moves with your mouth throughout the day. The most durable dentures for long term use, Valplast partial dentures are specially designed to last a lifetime, allowing for increased customisation over the years. It is possible to add more teeth to existing Valplast dentures in the event of further tooth loss, rather than needing to create a whole new denture. In addition, when you buy Valplast dentures, you also benefit from an additional manufacturer’s warranty against breakage, the full details of which can be found on Valplast’s website once you register your appliance with them. What Should I Expect When Getting Partial Dentures? Partial dentures are easy to fit and can be provided by most general dentists. Partial dentures work by taking a series of measurements and impressions to help a dental laboratory produce your prosthetic. Here’s what to expect from the partial dentures treatment process: Step 1 - Measuring The first step to having partial dentures is having your mouth measured by your dentist in order to create an accurate model of your teeth. There are many ways we can do this. At Synergy, we may use traditional putty impressions or digital dentistry scanning, or some combination of the two to produce an extremely accurate model of your teeth. We will then design your new partial denture to fit your smile perfectly, matching the shade of the teeth to blend with your natural teeth. Step 2 - Manufacture Once we have all of the measurements to create your new teeth, a dental laboratory will craft your partial denture using the materials you have chosen. Each denture is custom made to each individual patient to ensure a comfortable fit and a more natural appearance. Step 3 - Wear Once your partial dentures have been made, your dentist will check the fit to ensure the denture is comfortable for you and make adjustments if necessary. It may take a few weeks to get used to the feel of your partial dentures, but you’ll be ready to go out and show off your new smile to the world straight away! FAQ How To Care For My Partial Denture? Partial dentures are relatively simple to care for with some inexpensive denture cleaning solution and a special soft denture brush. When you remove your denture, start by rinsing your partial denture clean of any food debris and brush gently with a special denture cleaning brush. Denture cleaning brushes are specially shaped to clean every part of your denture and have soft bristles. Using a normal toothbrush and toothpaste can cause scratches and damage your partial denture, affecting the appearance of your dental appliance. Clean your partial denture daily by soaking it in a denture cleaning solution according to the packaging instructions. Do not boil your denture as this can warp the materials and affect the fit. Only use an approved denture cleaning solution and no other chemicals, as these can cause staining or discolouration. If you’re unsure what denture cleaner to use for your partial denture, ask your dentist what is recommended for the materials your denture has been made from. For a deeper clean, you may wish to invest in a sonic cleansing device - but always check with your dentist that your denture is compatible with the device before buying. When you are not wearing your partial denture, you should keep it hydrated in a denture cleaning solution or a glass of water. Do not wear your denture when sleeping. Rinse your partial denture before putting it back in in the morning. Remember to also clean your remaining natural teeth and gums. How To Care For A Valplast Flexible Partial Denture? Valplast partial dentures can be cleaned in a similar way to other partial dentures. Rinse your Valplast partial dentures clean of food debris after every meal, and brush your denture twice daily with a special soft cleansing brush. Do not use abrasive toothpastes. As Valpalst partial dentures are made with a unique thermoplastic and nylon material, traditional denture cleaning solutions are not recommended. Instead, Valplast recommends using their specially designed cleaner at least 3 times a week and sonic spa at least once a week for deep cleaning. Rinse thoroughly after cleaning or soaking. Remember to clean your natural teeth and your gums gently to prevent tooth decay and bacteria build up. What Are The Benefits Of Partial Dentures? Partial dentures are absolutely worth it for anyone looking to replace missing teeth at a lower cost without needing to undergo surgery required for dental implants. Some benefits of partial dentures include: Higher confidence in your appearance Better ability to chew Improved speech Supporting your other teeth Improved bite and better jaw alignment Give support back to the facial muscles and make the face look more youthful and lifted Lower cost compared to other missing teeth solutions Custom made to fit your mouth Non-invasive procedure, with no need for drilling or anaesthetic Protects the gums In addition to all of these benefits, Valplast partial dentures are easy to repair and can be adjusted over time to suit your needs. They are specially designed to last a lifetime, allowing for additional teeth to be added over the years in the case of further tooth-loss. Valplast dentures also come with a certificate of authenticity which gives you the option to register your partial denture on their website, giving you an extra manufacturer’s assurance against breakages or damage. What Are The Risks Of Partial Dentures? All dental appliances come with a degree of potential risks. In the case of partial dentures, there are very few risks associated with wearing your appliance, though there are still some. Some risks of partial dentures include: Plaque build up on neighbouring teeth as the denture can trap bacteria Trauma to the gums from ill fitting partial dentures Muscle soreness and discomfort during the initial wearing period Loose dentures may cause infection and cuts/ulcers - avoid this by getting your dentures replaced when they no longer fit. Potential bone loss from the pressure of the partial denture if it is worn overnight - avoid this by ensuring you take your denture out at night to give your gums time to rest. Most of the risks associated with partial dentures result from improper use. Maintain good oral hygiene habits and follow your dentist’s instructions to avoid encountering problems with your partial dentures. Partial Dentures vs Dental Implants: Which Is Better? Partial dentures and dental implants both serve the same purpose of replacing missing teeth, but which one is better entirely depends on the needs of each patient. Dental implants are a great option for people who want a fixed, permanent solution to missing teeth, however dental implants can be much more costly and require undergoing minor oral surgery, making them unsuitable for people with various medical conditions. Partial dentures are much more cost effective compared to dental implants, making them a more accessible option. They are also removable, and do not require specialist cleaning appointments with the dentist every 6 months like a dental implant, but instead can be cleaned effectively at home. Another alternative may be a dental bridge. No one option is better than the others, it all depends on each patient’s individual needs. How Long Do Partial Dentures Last? A high quality partial denture can last anywhere between 5-15 years, though they have been known to last longer. The length of time your partial dentures last varies based on a range of factors including: the materials used, the quality of the denture, the fit, the level of use, and other oral health conditions that may affect your denture. To get the best from your partial denture and extend its lifespan as much as possible, make sure you’re cleaning your denture diligently to keep it looking its best. Are Partial Dentures Comfortable? Partial dentures can be uncomfortable at first, especially if you have had a gap for a long time. This is usually because your mouth is still getting used to the new sensation of the denture. You may also have to adjust how you hold your tongue and your cheeks in order to keep your partial denture in place in your mouth. This can cause soreness and muscle pain at first, but this should wear off as you grow used to the feeling of wearing your partial denture. Just like breaking in a new pair of shoes, it takes some time to adjust to wearing your partial denture, and the only way to improve this is by continuing to wear your partial denture regularly. If you’re concerned that your partial denture doesn’t fit right or feels overly uncomfortable, see your dentist and they will make adjustments to produce a more comfortable fit. What Foods Should I Avoid With Partial Dentures? Partial dentures allow wearers to live a normal life again after tooth loss, regaining the ability to eat most foods, but there are some foods that are better being avoided. Hard, crunchy vegetables like carrots should not be eaten raw as they can damage your dentures, instead, you should cook or steam crunchy vegetables until they are tender and easy to bite. Apples and other hard fruits should be cut into smaller pieces to make them more manageable, and corn should be scraped off the cob to eat, rather than biting directly. It’s also a good idea to avoid sticky foods like caramels, toffees, or gummy sweets. Boiled sweets should be sucked rather than chewed. Coffee, tea, and wine can all stain your dentures, just like they can with your natural teeth. How Much Do Partial Dentures Cost? We have a wide range of affordable partial dentures, including finance options. Our fully customisable partial dentures are transparently priced based on the material and the number of teeth required - creating an endless range of options to suit every budget. Our Valplast dentures are available at a fixed price. For the latest pricing details and offers, visit our pricing page.

> You will need to undergo root canal treatment as soon as the infection has been diagnosed, as this will ensure you get the best possible outcome.

A root canal (endodontics) treats the very centre of the tooth where the inner nerve lies– called the inner pulp. An infection within the inner pulp of the tooth can cause the tooth to rot away. Root canal treatment essentially prevents infected teeth from needing to be extracted completely.
What Is A Root Canal? Endodontics, or root canal as it is commonly called, is an area of dentistry focused on the inner pulp of the tooth. Your teeth are made up of sections: The crown is the portion of the tooth above the gum. The root is the portion of the tooth below the gumline. The outside of your tooth is called the enamel - this is a protective layer, like armour for your teeth. The next layer of your tooth is called dentine. The innermost layer of your tooth is called the pulp. This is where the nerves and blood vessels supply each tooth. When the inner pulp of your tooth becomes infected or inflamed, it is important to have the infected tissue removed to preserve the rest of the tooth and stop the infection or inflammation from worsening. We do this with a root canal. Why Would I Need A Root Canal? Infections and inflammation of the pulp occur when the pulp becomes exposed to bacteria. This can be caused by a number of things such as: Tooth decay A poorly placed filling Oral trauma How Do I Know I Need A Root Canal? Infections and inflammation of the pulp come with many signs and symptoms that you might need a root canal. These include: Extreme Sensitivity Swelling around the infected tooth An abscess or pus Looseness of a certain tooth Tenderness of a certain tooth - especially when pressed Pain and sensitivity - especially when eating or drinking anything hot Sometimes, you may have an infection that requires root canal without noticing any of these symptoms, which is why regular dental checkups are vital to preserve your oral health. You may even find that the pain disappears and think that you no longer have a problem - but this is actually a sign of the condition worsening. As the infection or inflammation worsens, the pulp inside your tooth will begin to die. If you experience any pain that you suspect may be an infection that requires root canal, do not delay treatment, as this will only make your case more complex in the long term and cause more extensive damage to your teeth. See a dentist about any pain you are concerned about. If your dentist suspects you need a root canal, they may need to identify the area of the infection and the severity with an x-ray. How Is A Root Canal Performed? Hopefully, if you maintain good oral hygiene practices, you will never need to have the dreaded root canal, but if you do need a root canal, don’t worry - it’s not as scary as it sounds! After we administer local anesthetic, the tooth is isolated and the nerve is accessed through the top of the tooth. Using rotary files and irrigation, the canal space is cleaned out and disinfected. We then fill the canal space with a special filing material. We normally use magnifying loops and sometimes a microscope to undertake the root canal treatment. My Dentist Has Referred Me For Root Canal Treatment, What Should I Do? Most dentists are trained to undertake root canal treatments. However, depending on the complexity of the roots, sometimes, it is necessary to refer a patient to another dentist who has undertaken special training to perform advanced root canal treatments. At Synergy Dental, we accept referrals made by local and national colleagues to undertake root canal treatments. You can also self-refer by contacting our clinics directly.

> Periodontal treatment aims to heal the gums which are afflicted by gum disease. Gum disease can be minor and unnoticeable but has the potential to develop into a severe and debilitating problem.

Periodontal treatment targets the causes of gum disease as a preventative measure against recurrent or permanent symptoms.
What Is Periodontitis? Periodontitis is the medical term for advanced gum disease. Gum disease (sometimes called gingivitis) is caused by a buildup of plaque and other bacteria which gradually eats away at the gums over time causing tooth loss. As well as affecting your smile, gum disease can pose a serious threat to health as it has been proven to link to increased chances of developing or worsening of existing more severe health conditions such as heart disease and Alzheimer’s disease. Periodontitis also causes complications for people expecting a child or trying to conceive, and has been shown to affect fertility in both men and women, as well as increasing chances of premature birth. If you think you have gum disease and are pregnant or trying to conceive, it is advised that you see a dentist for treatment before the condition progresses to severe periodontal disease. What Causes Periodontitis? Periodontitis is a common problem, and gum disease is estimated to affect approximately half of the UK adult population. The primary cause of gum disease is poor oral hygiene habits, but gum disease can be caused or worsened by a range of the following factors: Smoking or using other forms of smokeless tobacco such as chewing tobacco or snus Poor diet, obesity, and poor overall health High stress levels Bruxism (teeth grinding/clenching) Excessive alcohol consumption Sometimes gum disease can also be caused by factors out of our control such as genetics, or as a side effect of certain medications or medical conditions. People with diabetes should be especially cautious, as they are at a higher risk of developing gum disease. It is common for people who have not had gum disease before to develop red or swollen gums during pregnancy as a result of hormonal changes. This condition usually goes away on its own after pregnancy as your hormones return to normal, but you should see a dentist if it is causing you concern or discomfort. How Do I Know I Have Periodontitis? There are many tell-tale signs you have gum disease. Some of the biggest clues include: Blood when you brush your teeth Sore, red, or bleeding gums Persistent bad breath Pain or sensitivity Loose teeth Gums that have come away from the tooth or appear to have ‘shrunk’ If you notice any of these signs, contact your dentist. A dentist will perform a periodontal assessment and diagnose if you have gum disease, as well as the severity. How Is Periodontitis Assessed? During a gum disease assessment, your dentist will examine your mouth in 6 sections, called sextants. Each sextant is recorded individually. It may not be necessary to perform a periodontal assessment on all sextants, as gum disease may be worse in some areas of your mouth than others. These individual scores let your dentist determine which areas of your mouth will need the most attention, and advise you on changes that need to be made to your oral hygiene routine. Your dentist will perform a visual assessment of your teeth, then they will use a special tool called a BPE probe to assess the depth of your gum pocket. The BPE probe looks like a small hook with a ball on the end and a series of black bands along the length used to measure your score between 0 and 4. A healthy gum with no gum disease will score a 0, whilst a 4 indicates severe periodontitis. You may need to be referred to one of our specially trained periodontists if you have advanced gum disease. Your dentist may also need to perform x-rays to assess the condition of your teeth below the gum. How Is Periodontitis Treated? Luckily, mild gum disease can be treated easily by a dental professional, provided it is caught early and treated quickly. During your periodontal assessment, your dentist will speak with you and create a treatment plan to help your gums heal and make your smile healthy again. In the case of mild gingivitis, your dentist may recommend changes to your oral health care routine, along with a hygiene appointment to remove plaque. In more advanced cases, we may need to perform a scale and root planing procedure. This is where we remove the plaque below the gumline, and then smooth the surfaces to reduce future build-up. In cases of severe periodontitis that affects the bone beneath the gum, you may need a more surgical approach performed by a periodontist to remove tartar deep below the gum. Your dentist may also recommend special mouthwashes or prescribe antibiotics to reduce infection. Though you might see signs of your gums returning to normal within just a few weeks, maintaining healthy teeth and gums is a gradual process and it may take several appointments to make your smile healthy again. After you have had treatment for gum disease, it’s important to maintain your smile with regular hygiene appointments at least twice a year - ideally every 3-6 months. Is Periodontal Treatment Painful? Both the assessment process and treatment process for gum disease is slightly invasive. You might experience minor bleeding, discomfort and pain during treatment, and you will likely feel sore for a few hours afterwards. If you are concerned about the pain, your dentist may decide to perform the treatment under a local anaesthetic to numb the treatment area, or you may wish to consider our options on IV sedation. How Much Does Periodontal Treatment Cost? The price of treatment for gum disease varies based on the severity of your case. If you have healthy gums, your dentist may just recommend professional cleaning as a preventative measure, the prices of which can be found on our hygiene treatments page. If you have periodontitis, our treatment costs are priced per sextant.

> Often used as an alternative to regular dental fillings, inlays are a bespoke dental restoration method used to fill cavities and gaps in teeth.

Often used as an alternative to regular dental fillings, inlays are a bespoke dental restoration method used to fill cavities and gaps in teeth.
Why Would I Need A Dental Filling Or A Dental Inlay? Dental fillings and dental inlays are both used to treat tooth decay by filling cavities in the teeth. Tooth decay has a variety of causes, such as excessive sugar consumption, smoking, and poor oral hygiene. Tooth decay normally affects all of your teeth, but can affect one area of your mouth more severely, meaning you may have just one cavity or several. Some signs that you have a cavity and need a dental filling include: Pain - especially when eating foods Sensitivity - especially to sugar, hot, cold, or in specific teeth A rough patch, dark spot, fracture or hole in your tooth Bad breath or a persistent bad taste in your mouth Sometimes you can have a cavity without any of these symptoms, which is why regular dental check ups are important. Not everyone will need a filling or an inlay - only people who have cavities need dental fillings. If you take good care of your teeth and practice good oral hygiene habits, you can minimize the need for fillings. It’s important to get a check up as soon as you notice any signs of tooth decay, and get a dental filling as soon as possible if your dentist recommends it, otherwise the decay may worsen and eventually lead to needing more extensive treatment such as root canal. What Is A Dental Filling? A dental filling is a common dental procedure used to treat tooth decay that all general dentists will have experience in performing - meaning most fillings can be done in one visit with very little wait time. During a filling, your dentist or dental therapist will clean away all of the damaged tooth, leaving behind as much of the healthy tooth as possible. They will then fit a filling to replace the missing portion of the tooth using your chosen material. Fillings come in a wide range of materials. Dental fillings can be made out of amalgam, composite, or glass-ionomer. Amalgam dental fillings are made from a metal alloy and liquid mercury. They used to be very common due to their strength and durability, making them excellent for back teeth. However, they are becoming banned from most Western Countries. Amalgam fillings are not suitable for children and pregnant women due to the mercury content. Composite dental fillings are made with resin. They’re discreet and can be colour matched to blend seamlessly with your tooth for a natural appearance. Composite fillings are used for more visible teeth. Glass-ionomer dental fillings are made from alumina, silica, and calcium. They contain fluoride to help promote healing, though they are weaker than composite or amalgam. Like composite, glass-ionomer can be made to match your natural smile. Platinum Composite dental fillings are our highest quality material, made from the same material that we use for our signature Nano-Hybrid composite bonding procedures, promising superior strength and a perfect match to your teeth. What Is A Dental Inlay? A dental inlay is a more durable alternative to a dental filling. They’re stronger than a filling, able to withstand stress, and are unlikely to chip or crack - making them a great alternative for people who want a long term solution to a cavity. Dental inlays are pre-moulded, bespoke made for each individual patient at our dental laboratory to match the shape of the cavity being filled. Using our digital dentistry technology we can ensure a perfect fit for improved comfort and durability, as well as a better aesthetic appearance and longer lasting results. A dental inlay takes longer to fit than a traditional filling, and requires the expertise of a skilled dentist. During dental inlay treatment, a dentist will clear away all of the damaged portions of the tooth, just like a filling. They will then take a scan of the cavity, allowing your inlay to be made to match your tooth perfectly. They will then fit a temporary filling to protect your tooth from damage whilst our luxury dental lab creates your inlay from your chosen material. Once it’s ready, the dentist will fit your inlay, and your treatment is complete. Dental inlays can be made from a variety of materials: Non-precious metal dental inlays are made from a metal alloy, making them strong and durable. Precious metal dental inlays are made with a combination of a metal alloy and a precious metal such as a white toned silver or dental gold. They are highly durable and last years with proper care, making them an excellent choice for posterior teeth (teeth at the back of the mouth). Gold quality dental inlays don’t actually look gold! They are made from porcelain with a substructure, giving you the strength with the high quality appearance of porcelain, making these dental inlays perfect for more visible teeth. Luxe quality dental inlays are our highest quality, equivalent to Zirconia or E-max quality porcelain. Handcrafted just for you at our in-house dental lab, these dental inlays have a compressed porcelain substructure, making them extremely strong. Using layers of porcelain, these dental inlays mimic the shade variation of natural teeth for a seamless appearance. How Much Do Dental Fillings/ Dental Inlays Cost? The prices of dental fillings and dental inlays vary based on the material used. Higher quality materials cost more to manufacture, and cost more as a result. Dental inlays are more expensive than dental fillings, as they require a highly skilled dentist to perform the treatment and a dental laboratory to create the inlay.

> A staple for many amateur and professional sports, personalised mouth guards offer protection against oral trauma that can be caused by high-impact sports.

A staple for many amateur and professional sports, personalised mouth guards offer protection against oral trauma that can be caused by high-impact sports.
What Is A Mouthguard? A mouthguard is a piece of specially designed plastic, custom made to fit your teeth perfectly. Different mouthguards are designed to serve different purposes. Mouthguards for bruxism (teeth grinding and clenching) are lighter and thinner to allow for comfortable wear overnight, whereas mouthguards for sport are thicker and made from a shock absorbent material to protect the teeth in case of an impact - these are sometimes called gumshields. A mouthguard designed for bruxism isn’t suitable for sports. Unlike store bought thermoplastic gumshields available in sports shops, our sports mouthguards are custom made to your exact tooth shape. This ensures your mouthguard fits tightly and comfortably in your mouth, giving you superior protection in the event of a collision or impact. We can make mouthguards to suit the colour of your teeth. You can even ask your dentist if it’s possible to make your mouthguard match your team colours! How Do I Know If I Need A Mouthguard? Anyone who plays high-impact contact sports such as rugby, boxing, or hockey can benefit from a custom made sports mouthguard - they might even be a requirement to play at some leagues or clubs. Even if you wear a helmet or other protective headgear, you will still need a mouthguard too. A properly made sports mouthguard protects your teeth from more than just external impact, it also protects your teeth from chips and damage in the event of a fall or impact where your teeth hit against each other. A well made mouthguard that fits you properly and won’t fall out doesn’t just protect your teeth, it can also prevent injuries to your jaw, spine, and brain. When Would I Need To Wear A Mouthguard? You should wear your sports mouthguard during games and matches, but also during training sessions where contact or impact is likely to be involved. It’s a good idea to take your mouthguard with you to your sporting events even if you’re not sure if you’ll need to wear it so you have the option to put it in if you need to. How Do I Care For My Mouthguard? Mouthguards are simple to care for. After every use, your mouthguard should be rinsed with cold water and gently brushed clean with a soft bristled toothbrush and a non-abrasive toothpaste, gently dried with a tissue, then stored safely in the plastic case until the next use. Do not use hot water on your mouthguard as this can cause the plastic to warp, and do not soak your mouthguard overnight in chemicals such as mouthwash or disinfectant other than those recommended by your dentist, as these can damage your mouthguard and affect the fit. If your mouthguard feels loose or begins to look worn or discolored, it may need replacing, especially for teenagers whose mouths are still growing.

Our anti-wrinkle treatment is a fantastic and simple solution for getting rid of unwanted wrinkles. From crow’s feet to frown lines, our qualified practitioners are experts in lifting the skin with synthetic fillers to achieve a new glow.
What Is Anti-Wrinkle Treatment? Anti-wrinkle treatments are conducted with the intention of making the skin look smoother, tighter, and more lifted by relaxing the facial muscles and increasing collagen production. These semi-permanent treatments are often used as an alternative to cosmetic facial surgery. All of our anti-wrinkle treatments are performed by qualified medical professionals who have undergone additional training to provide anti-wrinkle treatment. In addition to softening fine lines and wrinkles, anti-wrinkle treatments may also be recommended by medical professionals for medicinal purposes to reduce symptoms associated with various conditions such as temporomandibular disorder (TMD), excessive sweating, muscle spasm, and chronic migraines. What Is Anti-Wrinkle Treatment Made From? We offer several options for anti-wrinkle treatments. Most anti-wrinkle treatments are offered on a prescription only basis (this includes Botox) meaning we will only ever provide anti-wrinkle treatments after an in-person consultation with one of our dentists qualified in administering anti-wrinkle treatment. What your anti-wrinkle treatment is made from will depend on the type of anti-wrinkle treatment recommended by your dentist based on your examination and medical history. What Should I Expect From Anti-Wrinkle Treatment? Anti-wrinkle treatments are quick and simple procedures when performed by qualified medical professionals. Here’s what to expect: Step 1 - Consultation This step is the most important of all. Anti-wrinkle treatments cannot be administered without a consultation first. During your consultation, one of our friendly dental professionals with a full qualification in facial aesthetics and anti-wrinkle treatments will discuss your health, your medical history, and the results you’re hoping to accomplish with your treatment. The person performing your consultation will be the same person performing your treatment, meaning you’ll get to know your medically qualified aesthetics practitioner to allow you to feel comfortable and confident in their skills. We want you to feel safe whenever you’re with us, so feel free to ask us as many questions as you need about the treatment, our skills, and our experience. Step 2 - Treatment Once you’ve decided you’re ready to go ahead with treatment, we’ll get you booked in. Your treatment appointment starts with a local anaesthetic numbing cream to reduce pain. Then, we will administer a series of small injections to your chosen area. This can take between 30 minutes to an hour. Step 3 - Recovery After having anti-wrinkle treatment, we recommend taking it easy for the first few days. Do not touch the area as this can cause the anti-wrinkle treatment to spread to other areas of your face. Why Shouldn’t I Get Anti-Wrinkle Treatments From A Beauty Salon? Most anti-wrinkle treatments are considered prescription-only medication, and should only be supplied by a qualified medical professional, but some beauty salons have found ways around these rules. Once someone has acquired the anti-wrinkle treatment, there’s no rules that say it has to be administered by a medical professional, only prescribed. This can lead to beauty salons offering anti-wrinkle treatments, but without having the necessary medical qualifications, leading to much greater risks of something going wrong. Much like you wouldn’t get medicine from anyone who isn’t a doctor, you shouldn’t get anti-wrinkle treatment from someone who isn’t medically qualified. At Synergy, all our anti-wrinkle treatments are administered by our dentists. We are qualified doctors of medicine, and have additional qualifications in the administering of facial aesthetics injections. We have a high level of understanding of the potential medical complications anti-wrinkle treatments can cause, and put patient safety as our top priority. Never get anti-wrinkle treatment from someone who does not perform a check of your medical history, refuses to share their qualifications, or refuses to tell you what medication they will be providing. Do Anti-Wrinkle Treatments Hurt? Anti-wrinkle treatments are normally painless. Most people feel very little during anti-wrinkle treatment, though you may experience a small scratching sensation when the needle is inserted. What Are The Side Effects Of Anti-Wrinkle Treatment? Most people experience anti-wrinkle treatment with little or no side effects, however, sometimes you may experience: Mild swelling at the injection site Bruising at the injection site Headaches Flu like symptoms Drooping eyelids, or a drooping mouth Sensitive eyes Most side effects of anti-wrinkle treatments disappear within the first day, but you should always contact a medical professional immediately if you are worried.

Having lip filler treatment can give thinner lips a natural fullness to their appearance that many considered a ‘natural glow’. Our fully-qualified and trusted practitioners are around to help advise how you could use synthetic fillers the achieve the look you want.
What are lip fillers? Lip fillers are used to plump-up the lips and give a natural glow. They are a great alternative for those who don’t want to go through cosmetic surgery. Our fillers are administered by fully qualified and trained practitioners, so you know you’re in safe hands. The filler itself has a smooth consistency - unlike other granular hyaluronic gel products - improving the overall appearance and leaving you with the best possible appearance. What products are used? At Synergy Dental, our practitioners use a range of different products. Primarily we Juvederm treatment, the number 1 chosen filler in the US, but you may choose a different product from our range. If you are unsure, your practitioner will guide you and recommend the best product for your needs. We only use semi-permanent products (lasting anywhere from 9 months to a year) which is ideal if you’re unsure about fully committing to a new aesthetic. How is the procedure done? Before your treatment, one of our fully-qualified practitioners will guide you through the full process of the treatment to ensure you have an understanding of what is involved. This is your chance to ask any questions you may have. The treatment itself is quick and simple. During your session, one of our practitioners will administer the lip fillers using a series of small injections. This can be a little more sensitive around the lips compared to other areas of the face, but any discomfort can be minimised with the help of an injection or cream-based local anaesthetic. The whole procedure should take around 20-30 minutes. Lip fillers have a very short recovery period, though we still recommend taking it easy for the first day. You may experience some soreness and swelling at first, but these symptoms should decline within 24-48 hours. For more information on dermal lip fillers, book in with us for an initial consultation. This will allow you and the practitioner to discuss the treatment and what you’re looking to achieve.

Wisdom tooth extractions are surprisingly common due to the difficulties adults tend to face with wisdom tooth eruptions. The procedure can be carried out by a specialist oral surgeon or you general dentist - depending on the complexity of the surgery.
What Is A Complex Tooth Extraction? Complex tooth extractions define extractions that are difficult to perform due to the surgical nature of the extraction process, this could be when teeth have not erupted fully from the gum or when the tooth has severely broken down below the gum level. This is very common in wisdom teeth. Wisdom teeth, or third molars, are the last teeth in your mouth to erupt. They come out of the gumline at the very back of the mouth on both the left and right sides on the top and bottom jaw, and typically emerge between the ages of 17 and 25, though they can appear earlier or later. You may not always know your wisdom teeth are coming in, though some common signs include redness and swelling of the gums at the back of the mouth. The area may feel tender, and you may even see white spots on the gum where the teeth have begun to poke through. You may experience mild pain in your jaw or face due to the pressure of the wisdom teeth coming through. Sometimes, these teeth can cause problems and need to be removed. Due to their position at the back of the mouth, removing wisdom teeth can be difficult, meaning wisdom tooth extraction often needs to be performed by a specially trained dentist. If you suspect your wisdom teeth - or your teenager’s wisdom teeth if you’re a parent - might be coming in, it’s a good idea to see a dentist and ask them to check that your wisdom teeth are developing properly. Your dentist will conduct a visual exam, and may decide to perform an x-ray to look internally and check that the teeth are growing correctly inside the jaw. Why Would I Need A Wisdom Tooth Removing? There’s a number of reasons why you might need a wisdom tooth extraction. You have 4 wisdom teeth in total, and may need just one, or all of your wisdom teeth taken out. Wisdom teeth that have not erupted from the gum, or have only emerged partially are sometimes called impacted wisdom teeth. Impacted wisdom teeth happen when the tooth gets stuck in the jaw because something blocks the tooth from emerging fully. This can be caused by overcrowding or by the wisdom tooth erupting at an angle, causing it to hit other teeth. Impacted wisdom teeth can cause problems like: Bad breath (due to bacteria) Infections Damage to other teeth Jaw pain and headaches Gum disease Tooth decay Cysts Swelling Pain and discomfort What Should I Expect From A Wisdom Tooth or Complex Tooth Extraction? A wisdom tooth extraction might sound scary, but our dentists are specially trained to perform this procedure safely. First, your dentist will administer a local anaesthetic to the area where a tooth is being removed, letting you stay awake for the procedure without any pain. If your wisdom tooth is under the gum, your dentist may need to make a small incision to access the tooth. Next, your dentist will gently rock the tooth back and forth, widening the socket to allow the tooth to come out. In most cases, this will be enough to successfully extract the tooth, however, in some cases the tooth may need to be cut into smaller segments. Simple wisdom tooth extractions can take as little as 20 minutes per tooth, but complex cases can take longer. You may feel some pressure when the tooth is removed, but the procedure should be painless due to the local anaesthetic. Tell your dentist if you experience any pain. Can I Have A Referral To A Specialist For My Wisdom Tooth Or Complex Extraction? At Synergy Dental, we run Specialist-Led Minor Oral Surgery Clinics across the North West, supporting our local dentists to refer to us for the difficult and complex extractions. Each town in the North West typically has one single clinic that has been appointed by the NHS to allow local dentists to refer for wisdom teeth extractions, complex extractions or sedation. Several of our clinics have been appointed as Oral Surgery Clinics in the North West - as a group, we’re proud to say we perform the highest number of treatments from Oral Surgery referrals across the North-West. We have hospital-based Oral Surgeons trained to manage these difficult extractions, including providing sedation for our patients. To be referred to Synergy for your treatment, you will need to ask your dentist to request a referral through the NHS central referring system, though be aware that the wait for NHS dentistry can be longer. As a patient, you can also self-refer to one of our Oral Surgery Clinics by calling us and booking in as a private patient, which may allow you to be seen sooner. Why Can’t My Usual Dentist Perform A Wisdom Tooth Extraction Or Complex Extraction? Not all dentists have the level of skill and training to be able to perform complex surgical extractions. At Synergy, we work hard to train and upskill our dentists to allow them to offer the widest range of services for our patients. Through our training arm, SynTrain International Academy, we run post-graduate courses, including university-endorsed MSc level courses, where our dentists can improve their skills and go on to teach advanced dental techniques to others. Many of our dentists are qualified dental implantologists and oral surgeons - as the North-West’s leading provider of Straumann dental implants, our dentists have years of experience using advanced oral surgery techniques. FAQ How Do I Know If I Need My Wisdom Teeth Removing? You can usually tell you have a problem with your wisdom teeth, as it tends to be very uncomfortable, though some people might have a problem with their wisdom teeth and not experience pain. Your dentist can determine if you need a wisdom tooth extraction. They will usually do this with an x-ray to check that the teeth inside your jaw are growing properly. My Previous Dentist Broke My Tooth, What Should I Do Now? Occasionally, if a tooth is badly decayed or already very weak, during the extraction, the tooth can ‘snap’. This means that it may become problematic for a general dentist to remove this tooth, as they may not have the experience or training needed to safely perform these difficult extractions, meaning they may need to refer you to a specialist within your town/city. Can I Have Sedation For My Wisdom Tooth Or Complex Extraction? Yes you can. If you are being referred by your dentist, please ask them to refer you for sedation as well. If you are a self-referral, please speak to your oral surgeon at your consultation appointment and we will perform an assessment to ensure you are medically fit for sedation. Can I Go Home After A Wisdom Tooth or Complex Tooth Extraction? You are allowed to go home after a wisdom tooth extraction, as it only involves local anaesthetic rather than a general anaesthetic, which is used in hospitals. It is a good idea to get someone to take you to and from your appointment as you may feel pain as the anesthetic wears off. We do not recommend driving after oral surgery. What Aftercare Should I Follow After A Wisdom Tooth Extraction or a Complex Tooth Extraction ? Like all oral surgeries, wisdom tooth extractions and complex extractions come with a risk of complications. To minimise infection risk, your dentist may prescribe antibiotics or antiseptic mouthwashes, and explain to you how to take them. You can promote healing and reduce the risk of infection by following your dentist's guidance and taking your prescribed medications. For a few days after, you may experience some pain, swelling, and minor bleeding. Avoid hot drinks which can worsen bleeding, and avoid drinking through a straw, which can put pressure on the surgery site and encourage bleeding. You should also stop smoking, as smoking dramatically increases the risk of infection. Eat lots of soft foods, and avoid chewing on the surgical site. Keep your mouth clean following your dentist’s instructions. Use cold compresses and over-counter painkillers to alleviate any pain, and take a few days off work or school to recover. Contact your dentist if you are concerned about any pain.

> Increase the volume and definition of specialised areas with dermal fillers. At Synergy Dental, our qualified facial aesthetics practitioners use Juvederm fillers to help restore facial contours and restore signs of ageing.

What Is Dermal Filler? Dermal filler is the group term used to describe the various types of treatments available using fillers. Dermal fillers are effective at making areas of the face look plumper, or making other areas look slimmer by comparison - for example making your jaw look more defined by emphasizing your chin - making dermal fillers a great alternative to costly cosmetic facial surgery options. The most popular areas we offer dermal fillers for are: Lips - Lip fillers are a widely popular treatment thanks to social media. Lip fillers are primarily used by women to create a ‘pouty’, full-looking lip, but they have also seen an increase with men looking to create a more youthful appearance. Lip fillers can be varied to create a more natural look or a fuller, thicker look depending on your desired appearance. Cheeks - Cheek fillers help to restore a youthful look by making the face appear fuller. As we age, our skin loses collagen and elastin which can cause sagging - especially around the cheeks and jaw. Cheek fillers give your face back the support it needs to make your skin look younger and give your face definition. Specialised areas - Dermal filler can also be administered to certain more localised areas such as the jaw, tear-trough, or under eye area to reduce the appearance of dark circles. They can also be effective at lessening the appearance of acne scarring. What Is Dermal Filler Made From? At Synergy, we primarily use Juvederm dermal fillers for our facial aesthetics procedures. Juvederm is the top chosen filler band in the USA. Juvederm’s formula is free from animal products. Made using a synthetic hyaluronic acid, a product naturally produced by our bodies that helps retain moisture, Juvederm is specially designed for making skin appear more plump. With the addition of lidocaine, a numbing agent, Juvederm’s formula may be more comfortable for patients compared to other dermal filler brands that do not contain lidocaine, giving you a relaxing and pain-free experience. Juvederm’s semi-permanent dermal filler formula lasts between 9 months to 1 year before needing to be topped up. Who Can Have Dermal Fillers? Dermal fillers are for almost anyone, no matter their gender, over the age of 18. Despite pressures of social media that often drive teenagers towards wanting dermal fillers, younger patients should not have dermal filler treatment - it is illegal for providers of dermal fillers to offer treatment to under 18s for cosmetic purposes as they are not legally adults and cannot consent to the procedure, even with parental permission. Patients with skin conditions, on certain medications or with various medical conditions such as autoimmune disorders, bleeding disorders or those on blood thinners should consult a medical professional to ensure they are suitable for the procedure. If you have any allergies, make sure you tell your facial aesthetics trained dentist - even if you’ve had dermal fillers before - and ensure that you are not allergic to any of the ingredients in your chosen dermal filler. What To Expect From Dermal Fillers Treatment? When in the hands of an experienced medical professional, dermal fillers are a quick, painless and effective treatment to achieve natural looking enhancement. No matter what type of treatment you’re having from the various options we offer - lip fillers, cheek fillers, jaw fillers, under eye fillers or fillers for acne scarring - almost all fillers are administered in the same way. Here’s what to expect from dermal fillers in 3 simple steps Step 1 - Consultation With The Dentist Before we provide dermal fillers treatment, we want to understand what your aesthetic goals are and provide you with realistic expectations as to what your final appearance will look like. Remember, dermal fillers are designed to enhance your appearance, not completely change it! Step 2 - Numbing Cream Your facial aesthetics trained dentist will administer a local anaesthetic numbing cream across the area you are having dermal fillers. This will make the treatment more comfortable for you, though you may still experience a mild pinching sensation. Step 3 - Filler Injections Your facial aesthetics trained dentist will then begin to inject the dermal filler into your chosen area. Our dentists are trained to create a natural looking result - we do this by injecting multiple very small doses evenly across the area being filled, building up to your desired result, rather than risking over-injection and creating an unnatural appearance. This can make your treatment take a bit longer - depending on the area you are having filled, appointments can last between 20 minutes to an hour - but it ensures a better looking result, so the wait is worth it! Once your dermal filler treatment is over, you will be given advice to follow regarding proper aftercare. What Are the Side Effects Of Dermal Fillers? Dermal fillers can have a wide range of side effects - but by choosing to trust one of our medically trained facial aesthetics practitioners, you can minimise the risks. Most horror stories regarding dermal fillers treatment come from scenarios where the person administering the dermal filler is not medically trained and has not injected the filler safely - either by over-injecting, or by injecting incorrectly. Our dental professionals are medically trained to administer dermal fillers so that this doesn’t happen. The most common side effect of dermal filler treatment is bruising and swelling immediately within the first 24 hours of treatment. This usually goes down within the first week. Continued swelling or tenderness may indicate a more serious concern such as an allergic reaction - contact your aesthetics provider or a medical professional immediately. Despite taking the utmost care, sometimes dermal fillers can have unwanted side effects such as an allergic reaction. You can minimise the chances of this happening by checking the ingredients of your chosen dermal filler, even if you have had filler before, and discussing any allergies before treatment. Whilst we perform our dermal fillers treatments under strict hygiene regulations, there is a small chance of developing an infection after dermal fillers treatment - this might be feeling unwell, a fever, or chills. Contact a medical professional immediately if you suspect an infection. You can prevent infections by following all advice that we give you regarding correct after care. If your medically trained aesthetics practitioner has prescribed antibiotics to prevent infection, remember to take them - though we may not always recommend them in all cases. Are Dermal Fillers Painful? Dermal fillers should not be painful thanks to the use of numbing cream. Our Juvederm treatments also contain lidocaine, a numbing agent, as part of the filler formula, making treatment more comfortable. During the treatment, you may experience a mild pinching feeling and pressure. After the treatment, your skin may feel tighter due to the added volume. You may also experience some minor bruising or swelling around the injection site, which should fade within a few days. How Should I Take Care Of My Dermal Filler? Whilst our dermal fillers offer semi-permanent results, there are a few things you can do to make sure your filler treatment goes well, speed up your recovery time, and help your fillers last longer. Within the first few days, follow all care instructions we give you and make sure to avoid: Pressing, poking, excessive pressure, or sleeping on the area where filler has been administered Side sleeping - this can cause the filler to move, instead you should sleep flat on your back Excessive heat such as baths, hot-tubs, saunas, and steam rooms Strenuous exercise Makeup Certain skin care such as chemical exfoliants - retinol, vitamin C and AHA Alcohol, NSAIDs (such as ibuprofen and aspirin) or any other blood thinning medications or substances. To help your filler last longer, protect your skin by adopting a healthy lifestyle, avoiding smoking, managing stress, keeping hydrated, and wearing an SPF sunscreen daily. Some people’s bodies will naturally break down filler faster than others, but scheduling top up appointments can help maintain your look for longer. Why Shouldn’t I Get Dermal FIllers From A Beauty Salon? All of our dermal fillers are administered in a hygienic and sterile setting by fully qualified medical professionals who take the utmost care in maintaining high standards of safety. In a delicate area such as your face, everything is interconnected, and a small mistake with dermal filler placement can lead to serious medical consequences such as swelling and even blindness in some cases where filler has been incorrectly administered by people who are not medically trained. Our dentists have undergone years of medical training to understand how the human body functions, and have undertaken additional qualifications to be able to perform dermal filler treatment. At a beauty salon, you have no guarantee that the person performing your treatment has the training and the medical knowledge to perform your procedure safely. This can potentially lead to poor aesthetic results and serious medical complications - costing you hundreds to have these problems corrected. It is always safer to find a trustworthy medical professional and make sure you are in safe hands before going ahead with any treatments - don’t be afraid to ask the person administering your filler about their qualifications, their training, the procedure, and the products they’re using. Ask to see before and after cases of their previous patients and find reviews before going ahead with any treatments - be wary of anyone offering cheap or free treatments on social media. Your safety should always be your primary concern, make sure you are choosing a facial aesthetics practitioner you trust to take your safety seriously.

The Oxyjet hygiene package is fantastic for those who need a thorough clean of the intricate areas within the mouth. With a combination of scaling and airflow treatment, we are able to remove staining and calculus with professional-like precision.
Why Do I Need A Dental Hygiene Appointment? Regular dental cleanings with a dentist, therapist, or hygienist are an important part of keeping your smile happy and healthy. Even if you have an excellent oral hygiene routine at home and you remember to use mouthwash, floss, and brush every day twice a day, plaque can still build up underneath the gum line. This plaque cannot be removed with your toothbrush at home, and needs the attention of a dental professional using specialist tools. Regular professional dental cleanings help to prevent gum disease and tooth decay, but they also help combat surface stains caused by everyday activities like drinking coffee, leaving you with a whiter smile! At Synergy, we offer a range of different levels of cleaning, from a simple plaque removing scale treatment, to advanced Oxyjet stain removal, and special cleaning procedures for dental implants. Scale treatments involve a dentist cleaning underneath the gum line to remove plaque build up. Our Implant Clean treatments are specially designed for patients with dental implants to remove plaque build up around the implant site. Regular cleanings of your dental implants are vital to maintain your warranty. Our Professional Clean treatments include a scale, but also a polish with an ultrasound scraper to remove light staining. Our Oxyjet Clean procedures include a scale treatment and ultrasound polish treatment, with the addition of a course of Oxyjet airflow treatment. Using high pressure water and non-abrasive fine particles, this cleaning treatment is designed to remove old and stubborn stains or spots of hard calculus. Our Prestige Clean treatments include a package of all our cleaning treatments, saving you money compared to purchasing each one alone. This is the best treatment to lessen the appearance of stains from coffee, alcohol, and tobacco, helping you get your teeth sparkling - giving you a reason to smile! If you’re not sure what treatment is best for you, your dentist can guide you and help you make a decision.

Periodontitis is a severe case of gum disease developed closely alongside gingivitis. Clinical procedures are in place to identify the level of gum disease each patient may have and are also used by specialists to advise on the necessary treatment plan.
What is Periodontitis? Periodontitis, or gum disease, presents itself in hideous ways such as bad breath, bleeding gums, and tooth loss. It can be difficult to treat, which is why it is best to raise any concerns you may have in order to treat it early before the condition develops further. You might notice symptoms yourself, or your dentist might observe them during a normal checkup. Your dentist will refer you to get a full periodontal assessment to diagnose the disease. Depending on the severity, this may be done by your dentist, a specialist periodontist, or a dental hygienist. During a full assessment, the dentist or specialist will look at: The health of your teeth and gums, including gum pocket depth. The level of plaque on the teeth and gums and the level of hard calculus. Bone levels on an x-ray The way you bite. Internal bone structure. Your dentist or specialist might vary the assessment, depending on your circumstances. The procedure may be slightly invasive, so if you experience any pain or discomfort, we can administer a local anaesthetic. At the end of the assessment, you will have a clear diagnosis of if you are suffering from gum disease, and a recommendation for treatment. Recommended treatments may vary, but it’s likely you will be referred for scaling or full-mouth disinfection (depending on your level of gum disease). For a breakdown of treatments and pricing, see the table below:

An orthopantomogram (OPG) is a type of full-mouth x-ray, specialised for dental care. They are used on patients who require a full image of an entire jaw, making the panoramic image from an OPG so useful for certain examinations.
What Is Digital Dental Scanning? Digital Dental Scanning uses the latest dental technology to create an accurate image of your mouth, including the internal structures we can’t see such as bones and nerve endings, giving your dentist a deeper understanding of your overall oral health. What Is The Difference Between A Dental CT Scan And A Dental OPG Scan? Put simply, a CT scan is a 3D view of your smile, whilst an OPG is a 2D scan. CT scans create a cross-sectional image of your mouth, including bone structure/density, tissue, and nerve position. An OPG creates a panoramic view of all your teeth. OPGs don’t show us anything in 3D, but they let us view your bones and teeth in great detail. Both an OPG and a CT scan are a type of x-ray, though they serve different purposes. When Would I Need A Dental CT Scan Or Dental OPG Scan? There are many reasons why you might need a CT scan or an OPG. We mainly use these helpful pieces of technology for planning dental implant treatments, oral surgeries, and other treatments we offer. Some reasons you may be referred for a CT or OPG scan are: Planning dental implant placement Evaluating the quality of bone and placement of nerves prior to dental implant treatment Planning surgery for impacted wisdom teeth Detecting and monitoring tumours in the jaw Determining the cause of chronic pain. CT scans and OPG scans are useful for assessing your overall oral health, and your dentist may want you to get one for a range of reasons to confirm your smile is healthy. Your dentist will tell you which type of scan is needed for your treatment. What Should I Expect When Having A Dental CT Scan Or Dental OPG Scan? First, we will ask you to remove items such as glasses, which may interfere with the scan. We usually provide a small box or a table you can place your personal items on for safekeeping during the scan. The scan itself is very quick and simple. One of our dental practitioners specially trained in radiography will position your head for you. We will ask you to place your chin on a head rest and place your lips around a small tube. The scanner will move around your head whilst you stay still, creating a full image of your jaw. Scans normally take around 2 minutes and are usually conducted whilst standing. If you have difficulty standing due to mobility problems, inform your dental practitioner and we will adjust the scan accordingly. Will A Dental CT Scan Or Dental OPG Scan Expose Me To Radiation? As CT scans and OPG scans are a type of x-ray, they will both expose you to a very small dose of radiation, however this is perfectly safe for most people. If you have reasons to be concerned over an x-ray (for example, you think you might be pregnant), let your dentist know and they will assess the need for an x-ray and consider alternative solutions. Do You Accept Referrals For Dental CT Scan Or Dental OPG Scan? If you’ve been told by a different dentist that you need an OPG or CT scan, but need to be referred to another clinic because they do not have the facilities, rather than facing long waiting lists to have your scans done at a hospital, it may be an option to have your scan performed privately with us. Ask your dentist if they will be happy for you to provide a scan from another dental clinic. We have CT scans at each one of our locations so you will not need to be referred outside of our clinics or to a hospital to have a CT scan. How Much Does A Dental CT Scan Or Dental OPG Scan Cost? Most dental scans are included as part of your treatment cost here at Synergy, with no hidden fees. If you do need to have a CT or an OPG that’s not part of your treatment, our OPG scans cost £50 whilst our more advanced CT scan cost £99. Your dentist will tell you about any additional costs to your treatment.

> A dental extraction is not always required, as your dentist will always try alternative routes to treatment in order to try and solve the problems that you’re having.

Dental extraction treatments involve the removal of one or more teeth. It may be required because the tooth is causing pain, infected (abscess), decayed, inflected by periodontal disease, or for cosmetic reasons.
What Is A Dental Extraction? Put simply, a dental extraction is the process of having a tooth removed. Most dental extractions are simple and can be performed by a general dentist, though extractions for teeth that have snapped off below the gumline or wisdom teeth extractions may need to be performed by a specially trained dentist. Dental extractions can usually be performed quickly with little need for planning - meaning we can perform most extractions as soon as it’s convenient for you. Removing a tooth is always a last resort at Synergy. We only remove teeth if the damage is too extensive to be repaired using cosmetic treatments, or when there is a risk of the damage worsening to affect other teeth. Why Might I Need A Dental Extraction? There are several reasons why we may need to take a tooth out - though we always try to avoid doing so. The main reasons for needing to have a tooth removed are: Severe tooth decay Loose teeth due to severe gum disease Fractured (broken) teeth An infection or abscess Oral trauma caused by an injury (during activities such as sports) What Happens During A Dental Extraction? Dental extractions are usually quick and simple procedures. Your dentist will start by administering a local anaesthetic to numb the area, so you don’t feel pain during the procedure. Then, a dental elevator will be used to loosen the tooth, and forceps will be used to remove the tooth. You may feel some pressure as the tooth is removed, but you should not feel pain due to the local anaesthetic used. In some cases, an extraction may require more complex surgical methods, for example if the tooth has snapped off close to the gumline, in which case your dentist may refer you to a specialist within Synergy. What Aftercare Should I Follow After A Dental Extraction? Following a dental extraction, you may feel some pain as the anaesthetic wears off. For the first 24 hours after your extraction, we recommend that you rest. It’s a good idea to take a day off work and avoid exercise. Keep your head elevated to minimize bleeding, and avoid contact with the area with food. Be aware that drinking liquids may loosen any blood clots, and might encourage bleeding. Do not drink hot beverages, as this will encourage bleeding. After 24 hours, you may rinse the site with salt water solution - add a teaspoon of salt to hot water, allow to cool before rinsing your mouth. You can also begin eating soft foods. Avoid smoking until you are fully healed, as this can increase infection risk.

Strong, flexible, and comfortable - Valplast dentures offer a different take on convention dentures by using high-quality flexible materials to provide a more comfortable fit for each patient.
What are Valplast® dentures? Valplast® dentures are a type of flexible denture, offering superior comfort, improved speech, and a better fit than traditional dentures. Your dentist may discuss Valplast® dentures with you if you find traditional dentures painful. They may also be offered as a cost-effective alternative to dental implants, or you are unable to have the minor surgery required for implants. What is Valplast® made of? Valplast® dentures are made using a pressure-injected nylon base, allowing the denture to move more freely than dentures using acrylic or metal, making them more lightweight and comfortable for the mouth. How is Valplast® different? Conventional dentures, made from acrylic or metal can take some time to get used to. When using conventional dentures, you will need to learn to hold them in place with your cheeks and tongue. Many people also experience some soreness and discomfort. This can be a barrier for some people when they first start using traditional dentures. Valplast® dentures overcome these barriers by clinging to the gums, providing a tighter fit. They are also flexible in nature so they fit around teeth better. They are also fully metal free. This makes them more comfortable and easier to wear, though they may still take some getting used to. To care for and maintain your Valplast® dentures, rinse your appliance under running water. Remove loose particles with a specially designed denture brush - do not use an ordinary toothbrush as it will scratch the dentures and damage the appearance. Soak your appliance in Val-Clean® Denture Cleanser for 10-15 minutes every day, and overnight 3 times per week. For a deeper clean, use a vibrating denture bath such as the Denture Sonic or Denture Spa. It is important to keep your dentures hydrated when you are not wearing them using Val-Clean® solution or plain water, and remember to brush your natural teeth and gums regularly. Your dentist will give you guidance on how to clean and care for your dentures...

Looking for a more stable dental prosthetic than conventional dentures? Suction dentures come in a full acrylic design and offer an easier and more comfortable solution to standard dentures or surgical alternatives.
What are suction dentures? Suction dentures are a type of dental prosthetic that are provided by many dental clinics across the country. Their special construction allows them to rely on using atmospheric pressure to create a strong hold. How suction dentures are prepared? The production of these suction dentures can be rather complex, as they are created using a specialist moulding technique, therefore prosthodontists usually make them. We create a special impression for each patient to ensure the best and most natural feeling fit. By constructing the denture in such an intricate way, they allow a void to be formed and the dentures to absorb onto the gum area. How does the suction work? Once the dentures are placed and pushed onto the gum profile, air is pushed outwards, creating a seal which allows them to cling to your gums. When you need to take them out, a bit of force should cancel the vacuum seal. Removing the prosthetic may require a slight amount of force, but this isn’t anything to worry about, it simply means that you have premium-quality suction dentures and they are functioning as intended. Suction dentures bring a variety of benefits for patients. The suction vacuum allows them to stick better, improving speech, mastication (chewing), and comfort - giving you added confidence throughout your day. Who is the ideal patient for suction dentures? Many people who have missing teeth can benefit from suction dentures, but they’re an especially good option for you if you want to avoid procedures that include minor oral surgery, such as dental implants. They may also be the right choice for you if you find conventional dentures chunky or uncomfortable. Your dentist will guide you on which type of denture is best for you. To care for and maintain your dentures, it is important to keep them clean with a specially designed denture brush and regular use of a cleaning solution. Your dentist will explain how to take care of your dentures so they last for as long as possible.

What are bridges? A bridge is a method of fixed gap restoration that fills gaps created from missing teeth without the need for surgery or dentures. The restoration is made up of false teeth, which are anchored onto those adjacent to the gap to create a permanent solution. All bridges come in units of 2 or more crowns, therefore, it a fully customizable process for each patient, which will allow you to choose the best and most cost-effective solution.
What Is A Dental Bridge? A dental bridge is a fixed solution for missing teeth. Made from metal or porcelain, dental bridges are similar to crowns, but rather than replacing just one damaged tooth, a bridge covers a gap left by missing teeth by using the neighbouring teeth as an anchor to support false teeth. Our dental bridges are priced equivalently to our dental crowns of the same quality levels. For example, a 3-unit bridge made with our Luxe Quality porcelain would cost the same as 3 Luxe Quality porcelain crowns. Dental bridges can come in various sizes to replace multiple teeth. The size of a unit includes the crowns on the two neighbouring teeth. A 3-unit bridge would cover a gap of 1 tooth. A 4-unit bridge would cover a gap of 2 teeth. What Are The Different Types Of Dental Bridges? There are many ways a bridge can be attached. Your dentist will help you decide what the best type of bridge is for your situation. Fixed/Conventional Bridges: These bridges require the capping of the two neighbouring teeth. We then fuse the false tooth onto the caps on each side. This is a popular choice because it offers the most strength and support. Cantilever Bridges: Similar to conventional bridges, but only one neighbouring tooth is capped. This is useful if you only have natural teeth on one side of the gap to be bridged and can’t have a crown attached on the other side to support the bridge. Cantilever Bridges are less common as they are not as strong and durable. Maryland Bridges: These bridges require little to no preparation. Instead, the false tooth is bonded onto the adjacent teeth using wings. Maryland Bridges are used when you don’t want neighbouring teeth to be damaged. They are less strong than other methods of securing a bridge and are therefore only suited to the front teeth. If you’re unsure which bridge type is suited to your needs, your dentist will make the decision for you based on your overall oral health and the position of the teeth to be replaced. What Material Are Dental Bridges Made From? Dental bridges can also be made from a variety of materials, creating several options to customise your dental bridge to your individual needs. Metal Dental Bridges: Metal dental bridges are strong and very durable, making them great for use at the back of the mouth. They’re also cheaper to make and are a more affordable dental bridge option for situations where the bridge will not be visible. Due to their unnatural appearance, metal dental bridges are not advised for front teeth. Gold Quality Porcelain: Our gold quality porcelain dental bridges are made from high quality porcelain backed with a metal substructure, giving you the beautiful appearance of porcelain with the strengthening qualities of metal! Our dentists will provide a complimentary shade matching appointment to ensure your bridge blends in seamlessly with the shade of your existing teeth to create a more natural appearance. Luxe Quality Porcelain: Our signature Luxe quality porcelain is our equivalent to the globally recognised Zirconia and E-Max porcelain. Thanks to a compressed porcelain substructure, our Luxe quality porcelain is the strongest and most natural looking material for dental bridges. Our Luxe quality bridges mimic the shade variations and translucency of real teeth, creating a seamless transition between your bridge and your real teeth, all without compromising on strength! This is the best, most natural dental bridge for front teeth that will be visible when you smile. It is also strong enough to withstand use on the back teeth too for those seeking a white smile all over. How Are Dental Bridges Fitted? Dental bridges can be easily fitted by most cosmetic dentists, and are applied similarly to crowns. Here’s how we fit a dental bridge in 3 simple steps! Step 1 - Consultation Each of our dental bridge treatments starts with a consultation with one of our expert cosmetic dentists. During this step of your treatment, your dentist will perform an assessment of your overall oral health and make sure bridges are suitable for you. We will perform a series of scans using the latest digital dentistry technology to create an accurate digital model of your mouth, allowing us to create your bespoke dental bridge. Your dentist will also help you decide the material to use for your bridge, and will tell you what method they will be using to fit your dental bridge based on the condition of your surrounding teeth and the size of the gap to be bridged. You will receive a full treatment report, along with a breakdown of all costs involved. Your consultation is the best time to express any concerns or questions you may have about the treatment process - our dentists are always happy to help with any concerns. Step 2 - Preparation Once you’ve decided to go ahead with your dental bridge treatment, we will need to prepare the surrounding teeth that your dental bridges are being attached to. If you’re having a Fixed, Conventional, or Cantilever dental bridge fitted, then we will need to shave down the neighbouring teeth. We always shave as little as possible, being careful to preserve as much of the tooth as possible. This can be mildly invasive, but will be painless due to the use of local anaesthetic. If you’re having a Maryland bridge fitted, we’ll have to prepare the backs of the teeth where the wings will attach by reducing them slightly. This is much less invasive than other bridge types. We then fit a temporary bridge in the gap, letting you be confident in your smile whilst waiting for your permanent dental bridge. Step 3 - Final Fit Once your permanent dental bridge has been made by the dental lab, we can fit your final smile! We will take off your temporary bridge and fit your final bridge. This step should not be painful. Your permanent dental bridge will be bespoke made to suit your smile using high quality materials for a natural appearance and comfortable feeling. Can I Have My Dental Bridges Prepared And Fitted In Just One Appointment? Yes, you can! At our flagship dental practice in Bolton, we house both a dental clinic and an on-site laboratory where we can prepare your teeth at the same time as your dental bridge is being made. Relax in our VIP waiting area whilst we put the finishing touches on your new smile, then leave with a brand new set of teeth - with dental bridges in one day! As one of the only integrated dental clinic and laboratory facilities in the North-West, we’re able to offer this unique service, attracting patients from across the country for our same-day smile-makeover treatments! FAQ Do Dental Bridges Feel Different To Normal Teeth? Dental bridges may feel a little bit different for the first few weeks whilst you get used to them, especially if you’ve had a missing tooth for a long time and have gotten used to having a gap in your teeth. Over time, you’ll grow accustomed to the new sensation in your mouth, and your bridge will feel normal. Do Dental Bridges Hurt? Dental bridges shouldn't hurt when they’re being fitted. We’re able to perform a pain-free dental bridge procedure thanks to local anaesthetic, but you may notice some discomfort after treatment as the numbing wears off. If you experience persistent pain or sensitivity for more than a few days, see your dentist. How Do I Maintain My Dental Bridges? Maintaining your dental bridge is simple with some small changes to your oral hygiene routine. Dental bridges usually have a small space between the false tooth and the gum line to allow for cleaning. Brush your teeth as normal, then use dental floss, an interdental brush, or a floss threader to clean underneath your dental bridge to remove any plaque and food debris that has built up under your dental bridge. To this every time you brush your teeth. Even though your dental bridge is made from porcelain or metal, the anchor teeth as well as the gum underneath can still decay, so maintaining a good oral hygiene routine is still important. Brush your teeth and clean your bridge twice a day, and have regular professional cleans with your dentist at least once every 6 months. Can I Eat Normally With A Dental Bridge? In addition to adjusting your oral hygiene routine, you may need to make some adjustments to what you eat and how you eat in order to keep your dental bridge looking its best. Certain hard and crunchy foods such as apples should be cut into small and manageable pieces, rather than biting directly into them. Foods like carrots should be grated if you’re planning to eat them raw, otherwise they should be steamed until tender and soft. Some foods are better off being avoided all together such as: Chewy toffees Popcorn Nuts Chewing ice Sticky sweets Corn on the cob (remove from the cob rather than biting directly) You should also avoid using your teeth as a tool - for example for opening packages or holding things in your mouth - and avoid chewing things that aren't food such as nails and pens. Dental Bridges vs Dentures vs Implants: Which Is Better? Dental bridges, dentures, and dental implants all fulfil the same purpose - they replace missing teeth! Which one is better varies from patient to patient and depends on what exactly it is you are looking for, as well as your existing oral health and current medical conditions. Dentures make a good solution for people looking for a removable replacement for teeth that is easy to clean. Dentures are also cost effective. Dental bridges are a better option for people looking for a permanent and natural looking replacement for missing teeth without the need for surgery. Dental implants are highly durable and very natural looking. They function just like real teeth, but may not be suitable for people who do not want to undergo oral surgery. Dental implants are also more expensive, and may not fall within every patient’s budget. No one particular missing teeth solution is better, it all depends on each individual patient’s dental needs. How Long Do Dental Bridges Last? Dental bridges can last years with proper care. On average, most high quality dental bridges can last between 5-15 years, but have been known to last longer with diligent care. How long your dental bridge lasts depends on how you care for your dental bridge and the quality of the materials used. Can Dental Bridges Be Repaired? If your dental bridge has come loose from one of the anchor teeth and you’re looking for an emergency dental bridge repair, we can re-cement your dental bridge as part of our emergency dental care service. If your dental bridge has been chipped or cracked, we may be able to perform a quick dental bridge repair using composite resin, but the effectiveness of a repair depends on the severity of the damage. In some scenarios, we may not be able to repair a dental bridge and will recommend a replacement. We can only determine if your bridge can be repaired by seeing your teeth and making an assessment. How Do I Clean My Dental Bridge? Cleaning your dental bridge takes a little bit of practice - unlike a denture, a dental bridge cannot be removed for cleaning, so it takes a bit more effort to ensure your dental bridge is properly cleaned every night. Dental bridges often have a small space between the false tooth and the gum, which allows you to clean all sides of your dental bridge using dental floss or an interdental brush. It’s also important to floss the surrounding crowns that support the bridge, as the natural teeth underneath the crown can still develop tooth decay. You need to clean your dental bridge twice a day just like you do with your normal teeth, taking extra care with your dental bridge. Use a soft toothbrush and a non-abrasive toothpaste to avoid damaging your dental bridge. What Will Happen If I Don’t Have Missing Teeth Replaced? Whilst it may be tempting to ignore a missing tooth, especially if it’s not visible, one missing tooth removes the support for the teeth beside it. Very quickly, one missing tooth can become three missing teeth, as the teeth on each side are unsupported. It’s always better to get missing teeth replaced, even if it’s just with a temporary solution. At Synergy, we can provide a range of solutions to fit any budget. Our expert dentists can offer affordable dental bridges for missing teeth, as well as a range of other options. We even offer dental bridge financing options to allow you to spread the cost of your treatment, as we believe cost should never be a barrier to maintaining good oral health.

Conventional dentures are constructed from measurements and impressions of your mouth taken during a consultation. If you are having teeth removed, the dentist will allow the tissue to heal before the plate is fitted. This process could take several months
What Are Full Dentures? Full dentures are a type of dental prosthesis professionally made by a dentist to help patients who are struggling with missing teeth. They consist of a pink-toned acrylic gum and false teeth. They are designed to replace a full jaw of teeth, allowing for improved speech and ability to chew. Who Are Full Dentures For? Full dentures are for anyone struggling with missing teeth. There are many solutions for missing teeth, but dentures are a great option for people who want a non-invasive solution. Generally, full dentures are recommended if you have no teeth remaining on an arch (upper or lower) or if your existing teeth are badly damaged and need extracting. If you have healthy teeth remaining in your mouth, we may recommend one of our partial dentures instead. At Synergy, removing teeth is always a last resort, and we will always do our best to suggest options that will preserve the natural teeth, though in some situations tooth extractions can be unavoidable. What Are The Different Types Of Full Dentures? We offer three different types of full dentures, allowing for your denture to be tailored to your needs and budget. Acrylic Full Dentures: Our acrylic full dentures are made from medical grade plastic and are lightweight, strong, and affordable, however they can be thicker and have a less natural appearance. Metal Full Dentures: These full dentures are made from a combination of acrylic with medical grade metal backing for improved strength and durability for a longer lasting denture. Suction Dentures: The best fitting denture available, suction dentures use a special moulding technique that allows the dentures to stick to the mouth without the need for denture glue! These are the best full dentures if you’re looking for a superior fit and a higher level of comfort. In addition to various types of materials available, we also offer our dentures in various levels of material quality to create a wide range of customisable options to suit every patient. Our Bronze quality full dentures are the most affordable dentures option available, and are a great solution for those looking for cost-effective or temporary solutions to missing teeth. Our Gold quality full dentures use a wider range of shades to create the most natural appearance. The teeth are designed with a natural-looking shade variation, with a darker tone towards the gum line and translucency towards the biting edge to mimic the appearance of real teeth. In addition, we can also apply finance to all full denture options, allowing you to spread the cost of your treatment. About Suction Dentures Suction dentures are created using a unique moulding technique, designed to remove the need for denture glue. Using a soft-touch silicone base and a diaphragm, suction dentures create a vacuum seal that sticks the denture to the gum using atmospheric pressure. This makes it almost impossible for your dentures to shift or fall out during the day, letting you live life with confidence. Suction dentures are also much more comfortable, and can be a good alternative for people who have struggled with traditional dentures in the past. What Should I Expect When Getting Full Dentures? Creating dentures is a simple process that can be performed by most general dentists. The dentures treatment process usually consists of three stages. The procedure is non-invasive, meaning the process of having full dentures is pain free from start to finish. Step 1 - Measuring When you first decide to have full dentures, the first step is creating an accurate model of your mouth to use as a basis to create your prosthetic. At Synergy, we work hard to keep on the cutting edge of technology. We may use a combination of digital scanning techniques as well as traditional impressions in order to create the most accurate image of your mouth possible to ensure a high-quality fit for your full denture. Step 2 - Manufacture Once your dentist has created a model of your mouth, our dental laboratory will create your prosthetic using the materials you’ve agreed with your dentist. Every full denture from Synergy is bespoke designed to suit each individual patient, creating a beautiful appearance. Step 3 - Wear Once your full dentures have been prepared by our dental lab, your dentist will check the fit of your denture, ensuring it feels comfortable and looks natural. If necessary, your dentist can make minor adjustments to the fit. Sometimes it can take a few weeks to get used to wearing a denture, but as this is a non-invasive procedure, you’ll be ready to start eating and smiling straight away! FAQ How To Care For My Full Denture? Caring for full dentures is simple with some equipment and practice. After every meal, rinse your dentures clean of food particles. At the start and end of every day, brush your denture with a special soft-bristles denture cleaning brush and a denture cleaning paste or a non-abrasive toothpaste that has been approved by your dentist. Do not use a normal toothbrush or a whitening toothpaste, as these can scratch your denture and damage the appearance. When brushing your dentures, also brush any natural teeth in your mouth and gently brush your gums to prevent decay. Soak your dentures overnight with a special denture cleaning solution several times a week, or use a special sonic ‘denture spa’ for a deeper clean - check with your dentist that your denture is compatible with any cleaning solutions or denture cleaning appliances if you are unsure, and they will be able to advise you. Do not use boiling water to clean your dentures as this can warp your appliance and damage the fit. When your denture is not in use, keep it hydrated in a glass of water or denture cleaner. What Are The Benefits Of Full Dentures? Full dentures have many benefits including: Higher confidence in your appearance Better ability to chew Improved speech Improved bite and better jaw alignment Give support back to the facial muscles and make the face look more youthful and lifted Lower cost compared to other missing teeth solutions Custom made to fit your mouth Non-invasive procedure, with no need for drilling or anaesthetic Protects the gums What Are The Risks Of Full Dentures? All dental procedures come with some form of risk. As the procedure is non-invasive, the potential risks of dentures are far less than the risks associated with other solutions for missing teeth. Some risks associated with full dentures include: Soreness or allergies due to denture glues Trauma to the gums from ill fitting dentures Muscle soreness and discomfort during the initial wearing period Loose dentures may cause infection and cuts/ulcers - avoid this by getting your dentures replaced when they no longer fit. Potential bone loss from the pressure of the partial denture if it is worn overnight - avoid this by ensuring you take your denture out at night to give your gums time to rest. Full Dentures vs Same-Day Dental Implants: Which Is Better? Both full dentures and Same-Day implants are designed for the same purpose - they both replace missing teeth. Which one is better depends entirely on the individual patient. Same-Day dental implants offer a fixed solution, using a metal ‘screw’ to anchor the teeth to the jaw and mimic the natural tooth root, offering increased security and confidence in your teeth. However this option is much more costly and requires a surgical procedure. Full dentures are much more affordable by comparison. They do not require any surgery, making them suitable for people who are on certain medications that would bar them from having dental implants. Full dentures are also easily removed at home for simple cleaning. No one option is better than the other. At Synergy, our dentists alway want to help you find the right option for your needs. How Long Do Full Dentures Last? With proper care full dentures can last between 5-15 years, though they can last longer. How long your full dentures can last depends on a range of other factors, including your oral hygiene routine, existing medical conditions, and the quality of materials used. To keep your full dentures looking their best, maintain a good cleaning routine and follow your dentist’s care instructions. Are Full Dentures Comfortable? Full dentures can be uncomfortable initially. This is because your gums and facial muscles need to get used to holding the dentures in place in your mouth. You may find eating and speaking with dentures a little difficult at first, but over time you will get used to the feeling of wearing your dentures. If you experience extreme discomfort, you can see your dentist for adjustments to your denture to improve the comfort. What Foods Should I Avoid With Full Dentures? Full dentures can help you to enjoy food once again, opening up a range of foods you may not have been able to eat before. Whilst eating normally is possible with dentures, there are still some foods to avoid to keep your dentures looking their best. Hard or crunchy vegetables such as carrots should not be consumed raw, instead they should be steamed until tender to make them easier to eat. Certain fruits such as pears or apples should be cut into smaller pieces to make them more manageable, rather than biting directly into the fruit. Just like you would with your natural teeth, you should also avoid sugars, sticky sweets, and anything that can stain your dentures like coffee, tea, and wine. Can Full Dentures Be Repaired? It may be possible for your dentist to perform a quick repair to your full dentures in the clinic on the same day. However, if your dentures are badly damaged, your dentist may not have the necessary equipment to repair your denture and will need to send your appliance back to the dental lab. You may need to go without your denture for a few days whilst it’s being repaired - talk to your dentist about possible solutions if you’re concerned about being without a denture. In some cases, your denture may be beyond repair and will need to be replaced. At Synergy, our priority is maintaining the best oral health possible for our patients, and we will always recommend the option that is best for your smile. How Much Do Full Dentures Cost? The cost of full dentures varies based on the materials being used. Using less expensive materials will result in a cheaper denture for those looking for a more affordable option - especially for those seeking a temporary solution without needing to compromise on quality. We allow dental finance for all of our full denture options as part of our commitment to make dental care more accessible.

> A dental crown is a tooth like “cap” which is placed over a tooth — to protect the tooth to reconstruct its shape and proportion, strength, and appearance.

What Are Dental Crowns? Dental crowns are a common dental treatment used for both cosmetic and restorative purposes. They are caps, usually used to cover teeth that are damaged, and can be made from metal or porcelain. Metal used to be a popular choice for crowns in the rear of the mouth but with new technology and advances in porcelain materials, using metal crowns is rare. The treatment process for crowns is very similar to the steps of treatment for veneers. Dental crowns involve preparing the teeth by shaving them down to make space for the porcelain, then cementing a cap onto the remaining natural tooth. This procedure can be moderately invasive, normally requiring 1mm of tooth to be shaved (unlike the over-shaving you sometimes see in videos online! ) and will be performed under local anaesthetic. By comparison, the process for veneers is less invasive and involves less shaving of the teeth, normally 0. 5mm. This makes veneers a better option for cosmetic purposes, whilst crowns are normally used for restorative purposes. Some veneers can in fact be fitted without the need for any shaving with the advancements in porcelain technology and digital smile design. Our Synergy smile makeover experts have years of experience in creating beautiful smiles and can tell you which option is best suited for your smile. Often, to avoid shaving healthy teeth, our Synergy dentists will suggest a combination of veneers and crowns to create a complete cosmetic smile makeover with veneers, whilst also protecting damaged teeth and strengthening them with crowns. We offer a range of package deals for veneers and crowns. Explore our options here, and find your dream smile today! What Are The Differences Between The Types Of Crowns? We offer several different types of crowns to suit everyone’s needs and budget. As crowns are both a restorative and cosmetic treatment, they come in a wide variety of materials from standard metal to top-grade porcelain. All of our crowns, regardless of their material, will be designed to perfectly fit your mouth for improved comfort. Metal: Metal crowns are made from silver or gold. These crowns are extremely strong, but don’t have a very natural appearance, leading to their decline in popularity in recent years. They are primarily for use on the teeth at the rear of the mouth where they’ll be less visible. Gold Quality Porcelain: The gold quality porcelain is backed with a strong substructure, making it much more durable than the bronze quality porcelain crown. It also comes in a much wider variety of shades with variation to match your natural teeth more seamlessly. Luxe Quality Porcelain: Our Luxe quality porcelain crowns are the highest quality available. They are bespoke made to order for each patient at our in-house dental laboratory in our HQ using the best quality of porcelain (sometimes called E-max or Zirconia). Luxe quality crowns are backed with a compressed porcelain substructure, making them extremely durable. They come in a variety of shades. Natural teeth are often shaded towards the gumline and translucent along the biting surface. Our Luxe quality porcelain replicates this shade variation for the most natural smile possible. During a complimentary shade appointment, your dentist will match your crowns to the colourisation of your teeth, letting your crowns blend seamlessly into your natural smile. Why Choose Synergy Dental Clinics For Your Crowns? Led by cutting edge digital dentistry technology, our dentists use the latest modern dental crowns technology to create the most natural looking smile possible. We’re experts in crafting custom-made crowns solutions for each patient, designing a treatment plan that suits your smile needs and your budget. With our wide range of package deals and our 0% finance options, everyone can enjoy a stunning smile! How Are Dental Crowns Fitted? Crowns Treatment Process In 3 Steps! Step 1 - Consultation Each treatment at Synergy starts with a consultation with one of our expert dentists. During your consultation, we’ll conduct a thorough examination of your oral health. Then we’ll discuss your smile concerns and the results you’re looking to achieve. We will take digital scans and clinical photographs as well as x-rays to then design your smile. We’ll outline your options and create a treatment report for you within 48 hours - your treatment report will go into detail about what treatment options are available to you and how much they’ll cost. Once you’ve made a decision to go ahead with treatment, we’ll have a few forms for you to sign, then you can book in for your treatment! Step 2 - Preparation Crowns require for your natural teeth to be shaved down in order to make space for the crowns to fit on top. Unfortunately, this means the crowns process is not reversible, so make sure you’re fully committed to having crowns! This step can be slightly invasive, so your dentist will use local anaesthetic to make sure the treatment is painless. We will then fit a temporary crown for you to go home with, ensuring you don’t leave without a smile! You will have the opportunity to choose the shade of your new teeth too. The temporary crowns are often a replica of the final shape so you can see how the teeth will look. Step 3 - Crown Fit Once your new crowns have been made by the dental lab, we’ll see you again to remove the temporary crown and fit the permanent crown. This will be made from much higher quality than the temporary crowns and will be much more durable and natural looking. Then you can go home and enjoy your new smile! How Do I Maintain My Crowns? Crowns are durable and easy to maintain. With proper care, crowns should last 10 years at minimum. It’s important to remember that your natural teeth are still underneath your crowns and can still decay, so you still need to brush and floss with crowns just like you would with natural teeth. It’s also important to remember that crowns can stain and can’t be brightened with tooth whitening treatment, so you should avoid staining foods and drinks like coffee or wine. Can I Have Crowns Prepared And Fitted In Just One Appointment? Yes you can! Thanks to our on-site lab at our flagship clinic in Bolton, we are able to prepare and fit your crowns in just 1 day! Our dental experts will prepare your teeth for your new crowns. Then, whilst you relax in our clinic and VIP recovery area, we will design and mill your crowns/veneers whilst you wait. As soon as your crowns/veneers are ready, we’ll fit your brand new smile! No need for multiple visits or temporary teeth. As one of the first clinics in the North West to run an integrated dental lab and clinic, we have many patients that travel to us from all over the UK and internationally to benefit from our range of same-day smile-makeover treatments.

> A bone graft is a completely painless procedure sometimes required prior to a dental implant being placed. It is performed using synthetic or animal bone.

What Is A Bone Graft? Bone grafting is the practice of healing bones - our bones are very versatile and are good at healing themselves, and are able to assimilate extra bone material easily. During a bone graft, extra bone is added to a place where a bone is thin or damaged. Your bones then heal, fusing with this extra material to thicken and strengthen the bone. What Is A Dental Bone Graft Used For? In dentistry, we primarily use bone grafting for dental implant procedures where the bone is too weak to support an implant, but we may also sometimes recommend a bone graft as part of other procedures. We might need to perform a dental bone graft if you have: Severe tooth decay causing damage to the bone Damage to the bone from trauma (for example, suffering a blow to the face when playing sports) Genetic factors such as weak/thin bones Bones that are too short to support implants (for example, between the jaw and the sinuses - this is called a sinus lift) What Is A Dental Bone Graft Made From? Dental bone grafts can be performed using a variety of materials. They can use: Synthetic bone Animal bone Human bone (taken from a cadaver) We primarily use synthetic bone. At Synergy, we will never take bone from your own body to perform a dental bone graft. Most of our bone grafts are performed using a synthetic bone powder that your dentist will mix into a paste. If you have concerns over what material is going to be used for your bone graft, for example due to moral or religious beliefs, speak to your dentist during your initial treatment consultation to ensure it will not conflict with your beliefs. What Are The Different Types Of Dental Bone Graft? There are multiple types of dental bone graft, and each one fulfills a different purpose. Standard Dental Bone Graft - This is a simple technique which uses powdered bone to pack a hole in the jawbone when a tooth has been removed. This is commonly used during dental implant treatment to ensure the implant fits snugly into the jawbone, and will normally be performed at the same time as the implant placement. Block Dental Bone Graft - An entire block of bone is attached to the existing bone during this technique. This is used when the bone is too thin to support an implant or when there is not enough height on the bone. This is normally placed around 6 months prior to the implant placement surgery to allow the bones time to heal. CT Milled Dental Bone Graft - A CT milled dental bone graft is very similar to a block graft in terms of technique, however this type of dental bone graft is made according to the exact measurements of your bone from your CT scans. Each CT milled dental bone graft is made in Germany, designed to the specific needs of each individual patient. Summers Osteotome Dental Bone Graft - This technique was developed by Dr. Robert Summers as a less invasive method of lifting the sinus floor. Sometimes, when placing implants on the upper jaw, the patient will not have enough space in the upper jawbone and there will be a risk of the dental implant going through the jawbone and into the sinus, making it necessary to raise the sinus floor using a bone graft. This technique makes treatment time faster and is less invasive, allowing dental implants to be placed in the same surgical step as the bone graft is performed. Sinus Lift - A sinus lift is performed when the sinus doesn’t allow enough depth of the jawbone to fit a dental implant. During this procedure, a dentist opens the sinus floor and packs bone graft material to create the desired depth of bone to support a dental implant. This requires advanced planning as it can take up to 9 months to heal before dental implants can be placed, though it is extremely rare that we need to perform this procedure! How Is A Dental Bone Graft Performed? Though there are several types of bone graft, all of them are performed in a similar way. Here’s how we perform a dental bone graft in 3 simple steps! Step 1 - Opening The Gum. Your procedure will be performed in a sterile environment under local anaesthetic or sedation, ensuring you can’t feel anything. The procedure won’t start until your dentist is confident your gums are numb. You’ll be awake for the procedure, but you shouldn’t feel any pain. If you feel pain, tell your dentist before the procedure begins. Once you are fully prepared for the surgery to start, your dentist will make a small incision in your gum, allowing access to the jawbone. Step 2 - Packing The Bone Once your dentist is able to see your jawbone, they will pack the desired area with bone according to the type of dental bone graft you’re having. If you’re having a simple bone graft for dental implant treatment, we’ll usually fit your dental implants in this step too, combining both surgeries into one so you can enjoy your new smile faster! Step 3 - Closing The Surgical Site Your dentist will close the site of the surgery with stitches. You may be given a prescription of antibiotics or a medicated mouthwash to promote healing and prevent infection. It is very important that you follow all of your dentist’s instructions to take care of yourself after your dental bone graft. Your dentist will arrange an appointment again in a few weeks to check your bone graft is healing well, and to remove your stitches. Whilst a bone graft may sound daunting, dental bone grafts are simple minor oral surgery procedures, and our dentists perform them regularly. They take a little bit of recovery time afterwards, but shouldn’t cause discomfort for more than a few days! Speak to your dentist about any worries or concerns about dental bone grafting, and they’ll be happy to help. Can I Go Home After A Dental Bone Graft? A dental bone graft is considered a minor surgery. You will be able to go home after it and will be able to drive immediately afterwards unless you have been sedated. You might feel a bit sore once the anaesthetic wears off, so it’s a good idea to take the day off work or other activities to rest. How Do I Heal A Dental Bone Graft? A dental bone graft is only a minor oral surgery procedure, but it may take a few days to recover afterwards. In the first few hours, expect some light bleeding and mild discomfort as the anaesthetic wears off. Within 24 hours, some bruising and swelling may occur, this should go down within a few days. We recommend you take a day off work following your dental bone graft, and avoid strenuous activity, though for more extensive bone grafting, your dentist may advise you to take longer off work in order to recover fully. You should also avoid hot drinks, as these can encourage bleeding. Do not drink through a straw, as this may place unnecessary pressure on the surgery site. Eat soft foods that are easy to swallow and require little chewing. Follow the aftercare instructions given by your dentist, including taking any medications, as these are vital for promoting healing and preventing infection. Tell your dentist if you have any allergies or concerns around medications, and they will prescribe a suitable alternative.

> Increase the volume and definition of your lips with dermal fillers. At Synergy Dental, our qualified facial aesthetics practitioners use Juvederm fillers..

Increasing the volume of your cheeks can have a lasting effect on your entire face and your confidence, giving you a fuller and softer facial aesthetic. If you’re looking for this then our specialists are here to help!
What are dermal cheek fillers? As we age, our skin loses collagen and elastin, as well as facial fat - especially around the cheeks and jaw - causing sagging skin. Fillers give the skin back the support it needs. They are a great alternative for those who don’t want to go through cosmetic surgery. Our fillers are administered by fully qualified and trained practitioners, so you know you’re in safe hands. What products are used? At Synergy Dental, our practitioners use a range of different products. Primarily, we use Juvederm treatment, the number 1 chosen filler in the US, but you may choose a different product from our range. If you are unsure, your practitioner will guide you and recommend the best product for your needs. We only use semi-permanent products (lasting anywhere from 9 months to a year) which is ideal if you’re unsure about fully committing to a new aesthetic. How is the procedure done? Before your treatment, one of our fully-qualified practitioners will guide you through the full process of the treatment to ensure you have an understanding of what is involved. This is your chance to ask any questions you may have. The treatment itself is quick and simple. During your session, one of our practitioners will administer the dermal fillers using a series of small injections to the area you wish to treat. This usually causes little to no pain, but any discomfort can be minimised with the help of an injection or cream-based local anaesthetic. The whole procedure should take around 30-60 minutes, but may take longer depending on the size and number of areas treated. Dermal fillers have a very short recovery period, though we still recommend taking it easy for the first day. You may experience some soreness and swelling at first, but these symptoms should decline within 24-48 hours. For more information on our dermal cheek filler treatment, book in with us for an initial consultation. This will allow you and the practitioner to discuss the treatment and what you’re looking to achieve.

Meet Dr. Mahesh Popat GDC-296748 BDS 2021 Invisalign Composite Bonding Smile Makeovers Book Consultation Dr. Mahesh Popat is one of the lovely dentists you might meet at our Oldham practice. He was born in Warrington and studied dentistry at the University of Manchester. He has a special interest in cosmetic dentistry, using Invisalign, composite bonding, and porcelain veneers for full smile makeovers to give each patient a smile they can wear with confidence and pride. He is currently studying for not one, but two post-graduate diplomas! One in aesthetic and restorative dentistry, and another in implant and restorative dentistry. He is excited to use his new skills to help as many patients as possible. Mahesh has a series of steps for helping an anxious patient, the first of which is to listen to their concerns to put them at ease. Making sure the patient feels in control of treatment is also important, and he uses diagrams and videos to make the patient feel confident that they understand everything. Finally, Mahesh looks for something in common with all his patients, and finds something to joke about together. Mahesh likes to use his skills as a dentist to help others, and has worked alongside charities in India providing dental care. He has also worked in Uganda, preforming research and helping to keep children off the streets. He enjoys world travel and has visited many countries, but would like to see even more of the world and do charity work in even more places. Outside of work, Mahesh plays kabaddi – a sport so fierce it makes rugby seem tame in comparison! He is part of the international team representing England, and regularly travels to London for training and tournaments. He also likes football and supports Man United. After a busy day, Mahesh sweats the stress away in the gym before heading home and practicing guitar. If he hadn’t been a dentist, he would’ve liked to start a band and go touring around the world, playing sell-out shows!

Meet Dr. Ali Altaf GDC-85605 BDentSc 2012, BA Sc, MJDF Single and Multiple Implants Full Arch Implants Invisalign Composite Bonding Smile Makeovers Book Consultation Dr. Ali Altaf is one of our most accomplished Synergy Dentists. When he’s not busy being a superstar appearing on the BBC or on ITV news, you’ll find him hard at work at our Preston Clinic where he is our Head Dentist. Ali was born in Saudi Arabia and moved to the UK in 2013 after graduating. He studied his BDS at Trinity College Dublin – which is why you might hear a slight Irish accent when you speak to him! His gentle voice and soft tone help to soothe any nervous patients. Since finishing university, Dr. Ali hasn’t stopped learning. He’s earned post-graduate diplomas in various areas and his MSc in Implantology. He has over 10 years of experience in aesthetic dentistry and full-mouth rehabilitation, and is so excellent that he has become one of our SynTrain Academy lecturers, training the next generation of brilliant dentists. There’s almost nothing that Ali doesn’t know about dentistry, so no matter what your concern is, Dr. Altaf can help. He’s even won Dentist of the Year and Practice of the Year at the Lancashire Health Hero Awards, as well as winning our Best Dentist at Synergy and our best Developed Dentist at Synergy titles! Ali’s dedication to dentistry doesn’t stop at the clinic doors. He is a trustee with the Refugee Crisis Foundation, a volunteer based non-profit organisation dedicated to easing the suffering of refugees globally. Their objectives are not only to provide basic needs, but also education and medical aid. They began in 2015, providing emergency dental care from a mobile dental clinic in the “Jungle” refugee camp in Callis. Since then, their projects have expanded to include the Rohingya Appeal, providing aid for Rohingya Muslims in Bangladesh who have been forced to flee their homes due to violence and persecution. The RCF Healthy Smiles Initiative aims to take a proactive approach to dentistry, focusing on education. Many dental problems found in refugee camps are treatable, but develop into severe conditions due to the lack of care available. Rather than waiting for someone’s oral health to deteriorate, Healthy Smiles Initiative aims to prevent these problems before it reaches the need for critical intervention. As a member of the board of trustees, Dr. Altaf has been a key member of developing these initiatives and raising awareness of them here in the UK through his appearances on national news. You can learn more about Ali’s work and the RCF here When he’s not at work, teaching, or supporting the RCF, you can find Ali playing badminton or gaming on his PC. Ali is a certified tech-geek, and dreams of living in the most technologically advanced house possible – though having an automated house does sound great... imagine having your coffee make itself as soon as you wake up!

He holds a BDS from Liverpool, and primarily practices general dentistry, but is also versed in smile makeovers using Invisalign and composite bonding. He says the best thing about Synergy is working with a talented team every day, knowing he has his colleagues and a group of exceptional dental nurses behind him. As Blackpool is one of our biggest practices, knowing he has that support is vital to Aunkit. He is very highly organised and likes to know where everything is – his surgery room is like a second home to him. Giving back to the community is a big motivator for Aunkit. He loves making a difference in Blackpool’s vibrant and diverse community and finds NHS work especially fulfilling, especially in cases where patients have struggled to find a dentist. Aunkit is especially good at handling first dental visits for children and families. Many children find their first visit to the dentist distressing – it is a strange environment with strange people, and they can get quite upset, but visiting the dentist is necessary for a child’s oral health. When faced with nervous paediatric patients, Aunkit speaks to them just the same as he would speak to his own nieces and finds ways to make dental visits fun and relaxing; from giving out stickers to letting them watch Peppa Pig in the dental chair! Outside of work, Aunkit enjoys finding good restaurants to eat delicious food, but balances being a foodie with plenty of exercise. He enjoys going to the gym and walking as well as a game of badminton or snooker. He’s also a big football fan and supports Liverpool. Aunkit is also scientifically and mathematically gifted, and considered a career in finance before deciding on dentistry. He wanted a job that was hands-on, but more importantly, would allow him to help people. He likes that his work allows him to see people face to face every day and witness the change he brings to patient’s lives. Before and after Look Closer Dentist Bio

By focusing on one area of dentistry, Dr. Modarres has been able to focus on providing advanced treatments not ordinarily available. He has a special interest in advanced, complex cases. Nader is also a believer in helping others wherever possible. As a student, Dr. Nad helped develop a programme to help students in a poor financial situation. Growing up in Iran, he knew not everyone was able to afford and access dental care.

He would also often open the doors of his clinic after hours to provide free treatment to those who were in need of urgent care. After moving to the UK, he continued to provide treatment to those who could not afford dental care – helping those in pain was the main reason he became a dentist. Seeing the joy his work brings to his patients, sharing in their happiness, and knowing he’s changed a life is his main source of pride as a dentist. Not only does Dr. Modarres offer all areas of dental implantology including maxillary pterygoid implants, he also offers sinus lift and soft tissue management as well as practising advanced restorative treatments. Using a fully digital workflow, Dr. Nad’s patients can benefit from increased speed of treatment as well as improved accuracy and lower pain post-surgery. Outside of dentistry, Nader is entirely focused on family life. Creating wonderful memories with his two children is his favourite hobby, taking them out to restaurants, shops and on holidays. Other than his family, Nader spends his spare time studying to improve his dentistry skills, keeping updated with the latest developments in the field. Dentistry and family are all he really needs in life! When he eventually retires, Dr. Nad plans to spend his time catching up on all the Netflix shows he’s missed out on when he’s been busy studying!

That’s why he is insistent that Synergy only uses market-leading materials from brands like Straumann and Invisalign, and all of our clinics are fitted with cutting-edge technology. Our first clinic opened its doors in 2007 on Central Drive in Blackpool, where Zuber still practises dentistry to this day - when he’s not running the business from our Bolton headquarters. He feels a personal connection to his Blackpool patients, as many of his patients are families he has treated over the course of generations, watching patients who he treated as children grow up and now bring in their own young children. Seeing the difference he has made on a family and their oral health is one of the best parts of his job. With a special interest in implantology, Zuber is the person to see if you’re looking for single implants or full arch same day implants, having placed 1000s of implants himself using our digital dentistry techniques to precisely plan each patient’s implant placement, minimising pain and surgery time. His years of experience and skill have led to him being the go-to person for referring complex cases, both from other dentists and patient-self referral. He is also experienced in handling nervous patients. Whilst his relaxed personality and sense of humour is enough to put people at ease, he is also trained in conscious sedation to help patients with a fear of the dentist. Talented at restorative work and cosmetic smile makeovers, Zuber can make the smile of your dreams a reality. Boltonian to the core, Zuber spends his free time finding ways to give back to the local community through charity work, supporting local food banks and educating about oral health. Being a parent himself, Zuber is motivated towards causes that divert youths away from crime and provide young people with alternative activities to being out on the streets. He is also a strong advocate for mental health awareness and the benefits of exercise for mental wellbeing. As someone who leads by example, Zuber enjoys triathlon to relieve stress.

A Bolton dentist has opened the headquarters for his dental practice group in the town he grew up. The new building, just off Blackburn Road near the Total Fitness gym, also houses Synergy Dental Group's new flagship dental clinic. Synergy CEO Dr Zuber Bagasi said: “This all new, purpose built facility is a huge step for Synergy, but it’s also massive for the people of Bolton. “I grew up on the Halliwell, and this new building is right at the bottom of the street I grew up on. “I wanted to keep our head offices in the same area because Synergy has always been Bolton-based, and proud of it. “In the North West, we’re often overlooked in every aspect - all the funding stays around Westminster, but the people in the North deserve the very best too. “We’re bringing Harley Street levels of treatment to the Northwest, minus the London prices! “Our new building is going to open up a range of new jobs in both clinical and non-clinical roles, and I want these jobs to go to the people of Bolton. “As a social enterprise, I believe that when businesses invest in their local community, the local community gives back. ” The group set up in the new building to accommodate our its 'ever expanding team needed to support the growing size of the business'. The building also includes an all-new state-of-the-art dental laboratory. The new clinic is now accepting patients. The revamped space will also house a cutting-edge dental training facility from where the SynTrain courses for postgraduate education, teaching dentists to perform advanced dental procedures such as cosmetic work and oral surgery will be run. And as part of its partnership with Bolton University Collegiate School and the University of Greater Manchester (formerly the University of Bolton), the dentist hopes to create a pathway for young people to access careers in the dental industry; from school-leavers into university, all the way to postgrad. Patients will be able to access an all-new range of 'same-day' treatments including veneers, crowns and implants. Rather than traditional veneer or crown treatment, where a temporary solution is inserted whilst the new teeth are prepared, the new process offers a bespoke service crafted to patient needs by experts in Luxe Lab. The process means that patients can walk away with dental work finished in just one appointment, with no need to come back for multiple visits. A spokesman for the dental group said: "We want as many people as possible to be able to access dental care from this new facility, especially because our prices are significantly lower than other dental clinics due to our strong relationships with our suppliers. "We’ve spent years fostering an excellent relationship with the Swiss brand, Straumann, the global leaders in dental implantology. "As top providers of Straumann brand implants, we receive discounts directly from Straumann themselves, which allows us to pass the savings on to our patients and offer our treatments at a significantly lower cost. "We know patients across the country will want to access our much more affordable prices, which is why we’re going to be offering a hotel and chauffeur service for patients travelling 60 miles or more for Same-Day treatments. " More information about Synergy Dental Group is available on its website.

- Categories: Press Release
A Bolton-based dental clinic is offering grants for those unable to afford high-end dental implants. Synergy Dental Clinics has announced the launch of a new grant scheme to help people who cannot typically afford dental treatment. The grants are specifically for dental implants, which are not currently offered by the NHS. Using titanium screws replicating the natural tooth root, dental implants provide a permanent solution for missing teeth. Synergy Dental Clinics’ grant funding is available for same-day implant treatment. The company said it decided to limit the grant funding to this treatment as it is not currently available on the NHS. Although the clinic has set its prices to be among the 'most affordable' for dental implants in the country, with finance options, these costs can still be too high for some patients. Synergy Dental Clinics has developed strong relationships with Straumann, a 'leader' in dental implant technology, enabling the clinic to offer dental implants at reduced prices. The clinic 'places more Straumann dental implants than any other in the North West', allowing it to access direct-from-supplier discounts. The grant funding is not supported by the government; instead, it is backed by the clinic itself, using its profits to make dental implants more affordable for those who cannot otherwise afford them. Eligible patients can receive up to £5,000 towards the cost of their same-day implant treatment at participating Synergy clinics. Patients from across the country can apply for the grant funding, provided they are able to travel to a participating clinic. Each grant application is reviewed by a member of the clinic's assessment team to ensure fairness. People can apply for the grant through the Synergy Dental website https://synergydental. org. uk/treatment-grant/ The clinic started the initiative after launching its dental implants nominations last year, inviting patients to nominate someone for free dental implants. The response from the community was 'overwhelming', showing a 'significant need' for dental implant treatment in the North West. This led the clinic to come up with the idea of providing grant funding for patients who cannot access same-day implants.

- Categories: Press Release
Nearly half of Bolton’s children have tooth decay and more serious dental problems by the age of five – placing it in the bottom 20 regions for young people’s tooth health in the country. And an Bolton MP has called the figures “deeply concerning”. The National Dental Epidemiology Programme examined the teeth of 341 of Bolton’s 3,949 five-years-olds in the last school year. Of the children analysed, nearly 44 per cent (43. 7 per cent) had enamel decay or worse – more serious decay to the dentin layer under it. And nearly a third (33. 1 per cent) had one or more teeth with dentin decay that had gone “obviously” untreated. The survey covered children attending mainstream, state-funded schools across the country. Over 81,000 five-year-olds were examined across the country, but the North West showed the highest level of dental problems with 36. 8 per cent of children having decayed teeth. Bolton ranked 15th worst for dental health, with Manchester topping the list – with over 60 per cent of the children having decay to their enamel or dentin. Dr Zuber Bagasi, who runs Synergy Dental Group in Bolton, said the borough’s results are down to children having little access to dental care. He said: "The reason many children in Bolton suffer from tooth decay is a lack of dental access. “As part of the Greater Manchester Integrated Care Board (ICB), we’re working to combat this by increasing children’s access to NHS dentistry through multiple schemes to incentivise clinicians to take on more child patients. “There's been an uptick in NHS dental services for kids. In fact, the figure for tooth decay in children was higher previously. “These new figures, though still shocking, represent a decrease. “This shows that what the NHS is doing is working. “But, as a parent of young children I think the idea of any child suffering with tooth decay is one too many. “I've been using my position as a dentist and as the CEO of Synergy Dental Group to lobby MPs and tackle this issue. “I was born and raised in Bolton, so I always want to improve things for the people here. " Tooth decay rates in Bolton reduced from last year by more than nine per cent. And across the country, by seven per cent. In the UK, children in the most deprived areas were still more than twice as likely to have dentin decay (32. 2%) as those living in the least deprived areas (13. 6%). There were also disparities by ethnic group. Asian young people had the highest rate of tooth decay of all ethnicities at 37 per cent, apart from those in the “Other” ethnic group whose rate was just under half (45. 4 per cent). Yasmin Qureshi MP, who represents Bolton South and Walkden, said: “These figures are deeply concerning, especially as tooth decay remains the leading cause of hospital admission for five- to nine-year-olds in this country. “No parent should have to watch their child suffer in pain, particularly when so much of it could be prevented. “But this is the challenge we face in dentistry after 14 years of Tory incompetence and negligence. “Lord Darzi’s review laid bare the scale of the crisis in our health service, including NHS dentistry. “Even he, with all his years of experience, was shocked by what he discovered. “His report provided the honest assessment needed to tackle these issues head-on. “Rescuing NHS dentistry will not happen overnight, but from my conversations with Ministers, it’s clear the government knows it cannot afford to wait. “That’s why they're working around the clock to end the appalling tooth decay that continues to blight our children. “Working with local authorities and the NHS to introduce supervised tooth brushing for three- to five-year-olds in the most deprived communities, helping them develop healthy habits for life and protecting their teeth from decay. To have the greatest impact, these programmes must be targeted at the most disadvantaged children. “As Chair of the APPG on Dentistry, I have been raising these issues for years, pushing for urgent investment in NHS dental services and a real commitment to tackling child poverty - because no child should suffer from entirely preventable dental disease”. A spokesperson for NHS Greater Manchester and Bolton NHS Foundation Trust said: “Oral health amongst children in Bolton and across Greater Manchester is a priority for both NHS Greater Manchester and Bolton NHS Foundation Trust. "That’s why it’s really encouraging that the proportion of 5-year-old schoolchildren in Bolton who participated in this survey with enamel and/or any dentinal decay has reduced from 52. 5 per cent in 2022 to 43. 7 per cent in 2024. “We know that there is more to be done as poor oral health has an impact on children and their families. "It can affect a child’s ability to eat, sleep and take part in normal activities with time of school and work for parents to bring children to the dentist for treatment. "Dental decay is largely a preventable disease, and we have worked hard with partners across our system to improve the oral health of our children. “Our priority now is to keep working together to build on what we have already achieved through the initiatives we have in place to improve oral health. "This includes the introduction of the Greater Manchester Oral Health Improvement Programme and the distribution of toothbrushing packs to children. "The Trust’s Healthy Families Team is currently also delivering a supervised tooth brushing programme to over six thousand children in Bolton’s schools and nurseries – focusing on areas with the greatest need. ”

People from across Liverpool and beyond have been pulling out all the stops to try and raise the money that Zoe's Place needs The campaign to save Zoe's Place from closure has reached its target and the hospice has been saved. The Liverpool ECHO has been part of a city-wide campaign to raise funds for the hugely loved centre on Yew Tree Lane, West Derby. The hospice provides respite, palliative and end-of-life care for babies and children up to the age of five. In October, devastated staff at the West Derby hospice were told that the centre would be closing by the end of the year. The charity, which runs the hospice had been trying to raise money for a new home, with their current lease in Yew Tree Lane set to expire next year - but said they had run out of time. News of the closure sparked a huge city and region-wide campaign, with people told that £5 million needed to be raised within just 30 days if there was to be any hope of saving Zoe's Place in Liverpool. The campaign has seen people from all walks of life doing their bit to raise money for this most-cherished facility, including celebrities from Paddy 'The Baddy' Pimblett to Claire Sweeney and Steven Gerrard. The biggest boost to the campaign arrived last week when it was revealed that Home Bargains' owner TJ Morris pledged £2. 5m to the cause, meaning the final total was in sight. At midday on Friday, the ECHO reported that the hospice has been saved. A final flurry of more than £300,000 arrived in the final 24 hours of the campaign as Zoe's Place was featured on national television shows Good Morning Britain and BBC Breakfast. Earlier this week, the ECHO reported that Mr Byrne met with Zoe's Place trustees again for what he said were "very positive" talks about the ongoing campaign and the plans for a new structure to run the Liverpool-based hospice going forward. He urged locals to dig deep in these final few days. The MP told the ECHO: "We now have five days to go to save Zoe's Place. We have seen unbelievable efforts from so many people in this campaign, it has been amazing to see, this has got us near to where we need to be. "We just need everyone to keep going, straining every sinew because we are now so close to making the new Zoe's Place in Liverpool a reality. " To donate to the campaign click here.

- Categories: Press Release
After nearly 10 years in business, local clinic Synergy dental was due for a makeover! After months on ongoing refurbishments, the new clinic was finally unveiled during a re-launching event last Saturday to officially mark the opening of the newly redesigned practice. The VIP event was attended by the Mayor as well as brother/sister influencer duo, Jake and Eloise Mitchell. Anyone who has been for an appointment at Synergy Dental Clinic Preston may have noticed a few changes in the clinic over recent months. From ripping up the flooring to removing all of the chairs, the local clinic has had a total overhaul. Whilst the clinic has continued to serve patients throughout the refurbishment process, Saturday the 31st of August marked the end of the month and the start of the new practice. The busy VIP event was attended by Preston Mayor Philip Crowe and his Mayoress, who had the honour of officially opening the newly designed clinic with the ribbon cutting ceremony. Also in attendance were several popular influencers, including travel and lifestyle influencer siblings Jake and Eloise Mitchell (@itsjakemitchell and @eloisemofficial) who boast 374K and 197K followers on Instagram respectively. When designing the new waiting areas, it was important for head dentist, Dr. Ali Altaf, that the clinic felt like home for patients. This involved replacing the clinical looking waiting benches and white walls with soft creamy toned chairs and wood panelling. The most standout feature sits in the heart of the clinic. Where there used to be an office style watercooler, there is now a large fireplace, adding a soft, living room feel to the waiting area. The idea was to create a space that no longer felt like a clinical waiting room, but felt like a home whilst still retaining a sense of professionalism and luxury. All of this has been done with the purpose of reducing patient anxiety and creating a soothing environment. Speaking on the new clinic, the Mayor said he was impressed with the new facilities. He and Dr. Ali discussed the importance of how our working environments affect our mental health, raising concerns over the high suicide rates associated with the dental profession. Presently, dentistry has one of the highest suicide rates among any profession in the UK due to increasing pressure on dentists to meet targets. The physical environments in which we work have a massive impact on our mental health. Factors such as light, temperature, and even colour can impact how we feel at work. Synergy has focussed on creating a warm, open, and welcoming environment with lots of natural light so that everyone who steps in into the clinic, both patients and staff, feel at ease. Eloise Mitchell (@eloisemofficial on Instagram), who had Invisalign at Synergy dental commented, “The whole team at Synergy, everyone’s been amazing from the start! ” She continued, “Everyone here is super lovely. ” Synergy’s CEO, Dr. Zuber Bagasi said, “This is part of a larger plan of continual investment in our clinics. One by one, we’re in the process of remodelling each clinic to create a more comfortable patient experience. Patients in different areas have different needs, and it’s important to us that we work with our head dentists and partners to ensure each clinic is unique and meets the needs of their patients. "Next up on the roster is the relocation of our main headquarters in Bolton - which will be moving to a much larger building and will include a state of the art laboratory and clinic providing same day smile makeovers and oral surgery, so keep an eye on our social media @synergydentalclinic for more news on that coming soon! ” During his speech prior to the ribbon cutting, Dr. Ali said he was excited to continue to serve patients in the newly designed practice, “hopefully for another 10 years! ”

A DENTAL patient unable to get a diagnosis for two years was finally told he had a condition called burning mouth syndrome. Clive Armitage eventually had his answer from Synergy Dental Clinic, on Chestergate, Macclesfield. He had first tried to get to the bottom of his symptoms – including a metallic taste and discomfort – in 2022. But three different dentists and a GP were unable to, one even removed a healthy tooth incorrectly thinking this was the source of his problem. Clive finally got a diagnosis from Synergy’s Doctor Anshul Jairath and was referred to a specialist and his condition, linked to stress, is now being treated. He said: “The first time I walked in we had a chat, I sat in the chair and Dr Jairath said ‘I think I know what this is‘. “Nobody, including my doctor, knew about this. Why? I knew there were hospital dentists, but I had no idea about oral medicine, nobody mentioned it until I came here. “The dental profession has changed dramatically since I was a child. ” Clive, who is in his 60s, can now get prescriptions for medication such as numbing agents which lessen the sensation of burning and take steps to manage triggering stress levels. Burning mouth syndrome is a condition that primarily affects patients over the age of 50 and commonly women rather than men. It is characterised by a metallic or bitter taste accompanied by a burning sensation on the tongue, gums, lips, or roof of the mouth and usually worsens throughout the day. A Synergy spokesperson said: “When you see a dentist or any medical professional, you’re going to them in the good faith that they will do anything to help you. “We’re so glad that Dr. AJ’s fast actions helped Mr Armitage, at the end of the day, helping patients is the whole reason we became dentists in the first place. ”

One lucky man is finally on his way to a perfect smile thanks to beating hundreds of people to win a competition. Last month Synergy Dental in Leyland offered one lucky person the chance to regain their confidence along with the ability to smile, speak and chew better with free dental implants. The dental practice which has clinics all over including Preston, Blackpool, Blackburn and Leyland, was then inundated with submissions. Impressed by all the stories, one stood out to them in the shape of family man Lee who was nominated by one of his 11 children. Kirsty said how her dad has ‘more kids than teeth’ and how he has never had anything for himself as everything he has goes to caring for his children, his wife Lisa, or anyone else in need including rescue dogs! A surprised Lee added: “I’m very shocked. It’s been years since I have had a full set of teeth. ” A spokesperson for the dental surgery said: “Lee really stood out to us, but we heard so many incredible stories from so many people. “We chose him because we were so moved by his daughter Kirsty's love for him in her nomination form. She told us about how Lee gives everything to his family and his local community - we felt like it was time for Lee to get something back. “Over the coming months, we’ll be seeing a lot more of Lee and his family as we work together with Dr. Ali Altaf to give Lee his smile back. ” They added: “To everyone who nominated, a big thank you! We're sorry to everyone who wasn't selected on this occasion - but that doesn't mean you won't be chosen for future opportunities “We wanted to make sure everyone got a little something, even if we weren't able to select everyone on this occasion, so everyone who sent in a nomination will be getting a message from us soon - watch your inboxes! ”

- Categories: Press Release
A Blackpool mum was outraged when she heard it could take two years before her little boy could get treatment for his painful gum abcess. Louise Palmer, of Tyldesley Road, noticed that her four year old son, Yah-Wayne, was in agony. When she booked into the Synergy Dental Practice, on Central Drive, to have one of her own teeth removed, she took along her son too, hoping they could see him a couple of weeks later. She was shocked and angry when she heard it would not be two weeks - it could be up to two years. Louise, who is expecting another child, said: “It cannot be right that a little child in agony like my son has to wait two years to be treated. “Something has gone badly wrong with the dental situation in this country. “I was told other children were having to wait just as long. “When I was his age I would never have had to wait anywhere near as long as that. “I cannot afford to go private otherwise I would not think twice. I’d make sure he was seen as soon as possible. ” Louise was told the delay was mainly down to the fact that Jah-Wayne would need to go under anaesthetic before having surgery to remove the abscess. And that meant having to wait for a hospital bed for that to take place. At the Synergy Dental Practice, spokesman Caitlyn Jones, said: “It is such a shame that children are having to wait so long to get treatment. “The biggest waiting list for children between six and 10 at the moment is the one to get a hospital bed for general anaesthetic for dental treatment. “Some people may think it is just down to dentists being greedy and abandoning the NHS for private practice, but that’s not the case. “We are as frustrated about this as anyone else. “There are a number of factors to the delays. “One is that the Covid lockdown held things back and created a longer queue than normal. “Another factor is that there is not enough funding for NHS dentistry. “The Government is starting to introduce support to increase appointments but whether it will be effective remains to be seen. ” She added that Synergy had introduced a payment plan, in which parents paid £10 a month, which allowed for more regular check-ups and cleaning which prevented dental issues getting out of hand. It even allowed for free treatment for two children to parents who joined it. Source: The Gazette

Well, until he slipped in the ice in February and split his lip right up to his nose and lost some of his teeth. “At hospital some were replaced but we can’t get him on a dentist list as no one does NHS new patents for adults. “I paid for him to get an assessment through a private dentist who told us that the teeth need removing as they were not put in right.

My teeth are yellow so I never smile and have no confidence in myself. “Now I just dream of the reality of beautiful teeth. ” A spokesperson for the Synergy Dental said: “We had over 100 people writing in with nominations, so it’s taken us a little bit of time to narrow them down. We know people have been waiting desperately to hear more. “We managed to whittle it down to a shortlist of 10 people, who we then contacted to find out a little bit more about them before coming to a final decision. “We’ve had some really moving stories and it’s made it difficult to pick. We have come to a decision as to who out of those hundreds of nominations will be getting free dental implants from us. “We want it to be a big surprise, so the patient hasn’t been told yet. We’ll be coming to surprise them within the next few days. ” Source: Lancashire Post

The entire clinic has been redesigned. A Leyland dental surgery has been relaunched - offering the latest digital technology and a subscription-style plan to help more people access help. Since Dr Karim Rachidi took over as head dentist and joint owner of Synergy Dental Clinic in Thurston Road, a year ago, he has prioritised creating positive patient experiences. This has led to the entire clinic being redesigned internally, with new waiting areas for patients, as well as updated surgery rooms. A spokesman for the surgery said: "This has all been done with the aim of making patients feel more comfortable when they come to our practice. As dentists, we recognise that a fear of visiting the dentist is a barrier for many patients - we don’t want anyone to neglect their oral health because they are afraid to see the dentist, which is why we’ve strived to make our facility as welcoming as possible. " On Thursday, South Ribble's Mayor and Mayoress attended the reopening ceremony. They spent some time looking at the latest digital dentistry technology - which allows patients to benefit from faster and more accurate treatment - as well as dental access. Dr. Rachidi is now offering SynPlan - a monthly payment option similar to a subscription that gives patients access to check-ups and x-rays twice a year, plus a discount on private treatment. The aim of this is to make private dental care affordable for those who are currently having difficulty accessing NHS services. Source: lep. co. uk

Do you know someone who struggles to smile, speak or chew? A dental surgery is offering one lucky person the chance to regain their confidence along with the ability to smile, speak and chew better with free dental implants. From Friday, April 12, Synergy Dental which has clinics all over including Preston, Blackpool, Blackburn and Leyland, nominations will be open for patients and non patients to tell their story and nominate someone they know who is in desperate need of dental implants. Implant treatment is one of the most highly advanced forms of dental prosthetics. They're different from dentures because they're permanent and they replicate the natural tooth root - they behave and look just like real teeth, giving patients who have lost confidence due to tooth loss a new lease on life. Whilst it's revolutionary, it's also a very expensive treatment - one that the NHS does not cover. A spokesperson for Synergy Dental said: “We wanted to find a way to give back to the local communities that have supported us for so many years, which is why over the next few weeks, we are open to nominations from our patients for someone who they think needs dental implants. “We will then choose one patient to receive dental implants on us. “They don't have to already be a patient of ours. We're open to everyone across the North West. “Change their life today! Tell us their story and we’ll choose a patient to get dental implants completely for free! It can be a friend, relative, or colleague - anyone you know. You can even nominate yourself! ” Dental implants have been proven to bolster quality of life. Not only do they play a vital role in restoring facial structure, speech, and chewing ability, they can also give a patient the confidence to speak in public, to eat at restaurants, and to smile again. ” The webpage will have space for patients to tell the clinic everything about their nominee such as what they’re like, how their current dental problems affect them daily, and how dental implants will improve their life. ” The spokesperson added: “We’ll read every nomination, and we’ll choose someone who will really have their life improved through dental implant treatment. “Once nominations are open, it’ll be announced on Instagram. ” To nominate from Friday, April 12, click HERE.

Do you know someone who struggles to smile, speak, or chew? Between the 12th of April and the 26th of April, Synergy Dental Group are offering patients the chance to nominate themselves or someone they know who needs dental implant treatment. You still have one week left to get nominating! Last Friday on April 12th, Synergy Dental launched a new tab on their website allowing patients to nominate themselves or someone they know to be in with an opportunity to receive free dental implant treatment. Dental implant treatment is a solution for missing teeth and is the highest form of dental prosthetic currently available on the market. It's different to denture because dental implant treatment is permanent. A dental implant consists of two parts, a screw and a post. The screw part replicates the natural tooth root, and is surgically implanted into the jaw using advanced digital dentistry techniques. Once this screw has been placed, the dentist then places the post inside it and attaches the replacement teeth - making it indistingusihable from your natural teeth. In the short time since the nomination period opened, Synergy Dental have been flooded with queries. A spokesperson for the company said, "In the run up to the nomination period opening, we even had people contacting us on Instagram at 4 am! It's great to se ehow eager everyone is. The response we've had shows the need for improved access to dental care in our communities - something we've been actively campaigning for. We hope that through this nomination system, we'll be able to give one person dental care that they need. " If you or someone you know could benefit from implant treatment, you still have a week left! You can nominate on their website.

Do you know someone who struggles to smile, speak, or chew? Just 24 hours left on Synergy Dental Group’s opportunity to nominate someone to get life changing treatment for free! Missing teeth can cause all sorts of problems in life. Not only do they make it difficult to chew, they can also make it difficult to speak, damage your confidence, and make it hard to smile. Many of us are having a hard time accessing a dentist at the moment, but local company Synergy aims to give one lucky person a chance to get life changing treatment for free. Dental implants are a solution for a range of problems caused by missing teeth. Dental implants can fix anything from one missing tooth to replacing a whole jaw of teeth. Unlike a denture, dental implants are permanent. They work by placing a screw element into the jawbone to replicate the natural tooth root. This then makes a strong foundation for a dentist to attach a crown or bridge, meaning your teeth won’t move around or come out. In other words, dental implants act just like your real teeth. This treatment isn’t currently available on the NHS, so patients have to seek this treatment privately. The prices for a single implant usually run into the thousands, meaning some people struggle to access treatment due to the price, but leading dental group, Synergy, are offering to foot the bill for one person. To be in with a chance of getting free dental implant treatment from Synergy, you need to head to their website and nominate someone using the form on their ‘about’ page. You can nominate a friend, family, or you can choose to nominate yourself. Make sure that you follow all of the rules, including following their social media. The nominations window closes tomorrow on April 26th at 4pm, so you need to move fast. Synergy Dental will read all nominations and choose someone to get free dental implant treatment based on the information you give. They will then announce who has been chosen on their social media. A Synergy spokesperson said, “We want to do this to help someone who would benefit from dental implants. Our dentists see people every day who struggle just to eat because of their teeth. We know that this treatment can make a huge difference in someone’s life. That’s why we’ve decided to do this - we want to help someone. This is our way of giving thanks to the communities that have supported our business for so many years. ” Source: burnleyexpress. net

The Mayor of Bolton was happy sitting down on the job when she officially opened a new dental clinic in the borough. Cllr Hilary Fairclough was able to see first-hand what the new Synergy clinic in Blackburn Road was all about. The surgery has been enlarged and given a full refurbishment and new equipment. This includes a new CT scanner so all patients can be scanned at the practice rather than being referred to hospital. Clinical director Dr Zuber Bagasi said: "Having a more modern environment and state-of-the-art equipment allows our team to offer the very latest techniques to our patients. For example, we are able to undertake dental implant treatment fully digitally-guided and mimicking 'keyhole' surgery, which allows less downtime for the patient and reduces risk and complication. " Cllr Fairclough added: "This is ground breaking. It's great to see local companies investing so heavily in their facilities. It's good for the local economy and offers more choices to the public".

Many patients arrive at their dental practice in the hopes of getting a full fitted bridge on the day of their implant surgery. While certainly possible, it comes with various risks. Take synergy's recent patient - Michael - who referred himself directly to Dr Bagasi after suffering from the onset of periodontal disease. His discomfort was further compromised with an uncomfortable denture. Michael underwent the treatment for an upper implant fitted bridge. The treatment went well and the surgery, to plan. Michael was incredibly happy with his results, but he was even more impressed with being able to leave his implant placement appointment with a full set of new teeth. Michael got a full temporary fixed bridge attached to his new implant, but this may not always be an option. The decision will ultimately come down to your dentist and their opinion. Putting an unnecessary strain on new implants could cause them to heal incorrectly and cause complication. If your dentist feels you are eligible for having a temporary fixed bridge, without the potential for complications, they will work with you to achieve this.

Tooth decay is an incredibly unpleasant situation to find yourself in, and it can occur most commonly from well-developed gum disease. One of our recent patients - Jaqueline - was suffering from a chronic form of periodontal disease, which left her with a disfigured smile and lots of missing teeth. Only having a few teeth can have massive implications on your confidence and daily life. Jaqueline was struggling to eat due to her discomfort, and she was losing weight at an unhealthy rate because of this. She was also hesitant to ask for help as she was apprehensive to leave the house due to her growing confidence issues. Her treatment was kept as simple as possible, and her input was encouraged throughout the entire treatment. This allowed Dr Bagasi to construct the smile that she'd been dreaming of for a long time. Fortunately, the treatment and healing process went by without any difficulties, and there were noticeable improvements to Jaqueline's comfort and quality of life. One noticeable difference was how Jaqueline's confidence had been improving so quickly For more information, contact Synergy Dental by: Web: https://synergydental. org. uk Tel: 01253 348616 or 01772 252154

ASK THE EXPERTS Protecting enamel Q. What is tooth enamel and can it be restored if it gets damaged? A. Basically, tooth enamel is the natural outer covering of the crown of a tooth which is the hardest natural substance in the human body. It is what you see when you see your smile or when someone else smiles at you and is composed of minerals. While it is strong it is also relatively thin, too, with 1. 5mm being its thickest dimension. Tooth enamel is extremely crucial towards ensuring that your teeth do not decay. Therefore, it is important to do everything possible to prevent your tooth enamel from eroding. It creates a strong barrier that protects the inner layers of your teeth from the harmful effects of acids and plaque. Tooth enamel also protects the sensitive inner layers of your teeth from foods and drinks that are hot or cold. The main cause of loss of tooth enamel is acid – it likes to eat away at the enamel, which erodes it over time. This can leave the tooth extremely exposed and vulnerable when it’s lacking its main source of protection. Acid is produced in your mouth in a number of ways, with the most common sources coming from the food that we eat. But it isn’t limited to that. Other ways that acid is produced in the mouth include dry mouth, teeth grinding, gastrointestinal tract issues, acidic medicines, low production of saliva and even your genetic make-up. Unfortunately, unlike your bones, tooth enamel does not contain any living cells so it cannot be regenerated.

ASK THE EXPERTS X-rays: The Facts Q. Are there any health risks from having dental X-rays? A. In a nutshell, the answer to that question is no. There have been no proven studies or diagnoses of health conditions that have directly been caused by having X-rays of your teeth. There is no hiding from the fact that we receive radiation from X-rays. However, the radiation we receive from dental X-rays is exceptionally minimal. In fact, we get more radiation from more natural sources. There are many reasons why you may need to have one. For example, your dentist may take an X-ray of your teeth to see if there are any early signs of tooth decay because, although they may look healthy, there could be decay underneath the enamel, potential infections in the root as well as bone loss around your teeth. If you are a new patient at a dental surgery, they will usually recommend that you have X-rays so that they can assess the condition of your mouth initially. Once they start to understand your history of tooth decay, anyprevious dental problems and general condition of your mouth, they may recommend having X-rays every time you go for a check-up or once every two years. X-rays are crucial towards helping your dentist see in between your teeth, underneath fillings. In the long run, they can help find and treat dental issues at an early stage which can save you a lot of time and money. If you are pregnant then you should always tell your dentist as they will take extra care and only use X-rays if necessary.

ASK THE EXPERTS Tips for festival-goers Q. I’m off to a couple of festivals soon – any tips on how I can look after my teeth on the go? A. With the excitement that going to a music festival brings, you can be forgiven for not packing the right essentials in order to ensure that you can take the best care of your teeth. But it is essential, at a music festival more than anything, to ensure you’re well equipped to look after your teeth and give them the best care. A recent study from the Oral Health Foundation found that 10 per cent of people that attend festivals do not brush their teeth for the duration of the entire event and around 40 per cent do so one time or less per day. When you are packing for a festival, make sure one of the first things you pack are your toothbrush and a fluoride toothpaste as well as some sugarfree chewing gum to go with that. Usually, after you eat or drink anything sugary – including alcoholic cocktails – your teeth are under attack from the acid for up to an hour afterwards. This increases the chances of your teeth decaying, causing bad breath and, at times, even tooth loss. Therefore, chewing gum afterwards increases the production of saliva in your mouth and helps to neutralise the acids that are present within your mouth, too. Brushing your teeth twice a day – once in the morning and once before bed – will help to keep your teeth in the best possible condition and allow you to have a the best possible time, too!

ASK THE EXPERTS Protecting Teeth Q. My children play sports that put their teeth at risk. Is a mouth guard the right solution? A. One of the worst scenarios for any parent, as well as anyone who is involved in contact-heavy sports, is what they would do in the event that their tooth was knocked out. A lot of sports require the participants to wear mouth guards – from boxing, mixed and martial arts to rugby and football to name but a few. There are different types of mouth guards that you can buy which will provide different levels of protection. Talk to your dentist and discuss the benefits of the options available. A custom-made mouth guard is probably the best choice available and will be uniquely designed by your dentist. First, impressions of your teeth will be made and – using special material – the mouth guard will be molded over the model. They’re a bit more expensive but provide better comfort and more importantly, protection. Cheaper, ready-made mouth guards are widely available in numerous sports shops and come in various sizes but don’t really allow for any adjustment for the person who will be wearing it. The other option is a ‘boil & bite’ mouth guard, which is made out of thermoplastic and placed in hot water to enable it to soften and then be molded around the teeth with pressure. Losing a tooth would mean not being able to smile, talk or even eat comfortably, making many crucial day-to-day functions possibly difficult all of a sudden. Until your teeth are gone, you might not really consider the implications of losing them.

ASK THE EXPERTS Hate going to the dentist? Q. I hate going to the dentist. What can I do at home to make sure I don’t visit more than I need to? A. It’s only normal to feel apprehensive about visiting your dentist but it’s still important to go for a check-up at least twice a year, just to see that your teeth are in the best condition they can be – and whilst you’re there make sure you listen to their advice as well! The most common causes of tooth loss are tooth decay and gum disease. Both of these can be avoided just by following your dentist’s advice and ensuring some good personal habits to help your teeth. Consuming foods and drinks that are full of sugar or are acidic can cause tooth decay, therefore if you reduce the frequency of those it will help a lot. Try and have fizzy drinks through a straw and if you snack regularly go for fruit, nuts or cheese instead of crisps, chocolates and sweets. Gum disease is caused when there is a build-up of plaque on your teeth, which containsharmful bacteria. Some of the symptoms of gum disease include red, swollen gums and bleeding whilst brushing. The best way to avoid any type of harm to your teeth is to simply make sure that you are brushing your teeth twice a day and taking extra care to clean in between your teeth throughout the day, either by flossing or using interdental brushes. Another great option is chewing sugar-free gum, as it helps your mouth produce more saliva, which is your mouth’s natural cleaning system.

ASK THE EXPERTS Mouth cancer signs Q. ONE of my friends was recently diagnosed with mouth cancer. How do I know whether I’m safe or not? A. Mouth cancer is one of the most common cancers in the world, but isn’t as common in the UK. Out of all the cancers that are diagnosed in the UK every year, less than three per cent are related to mouth cancer. It is more common in adults over the age of 50 although it can affect adults under the age of 50, too. Some of the symptoms include white or red patches on the inside of your mouth, mysterious lumps in the mouth that stay for a while, or if you have a mouth ulcer that doesn’t heal within a few weeks. Mouth cancer cases are usually linked to excessive consumption of tobacco and alcohol. All forms of tobacco, whether it’s smoking a cigarette or pipe, or through chewing tobacco are particularly dangerous. Consuming excessive alcohol can also increase the risk of getting mouth cancer. More recently, there are cases of mouth cancer linked to the human papillomavirus (HPV) which can be spread through unsafe oral sex. To protect yourself from any symptoms and dangers of mouth cancer, I highly recommend being aware of what goes on in your mouth and just to look out for any unexplained lumps or patches. Stopping smoking and reducing alcohol consumption will also be of great benefit as well as ensuring you’re eating a healthy diet. Having regular check-ups with your dentist will also help to ensure that any symptoms of mouth cancer are identified early and have a better chance of being cured.

ASK THE EXPERTS Root canal facts Q. What is root canal treatment? A. Root canal treatment is a procedure used to treat a tooth when bacteria infect the nerve and blood vessels inside the tooth. This is also known as the pulp and can become infected following decay in a tooth extending past the enamel and the dentine into the pulp chamber in the centre. This can be from a tooth which has been left untreated for too long or can happen underneath an old filling or crown. If a tooth suffers severe trauma and fractures, this can cause an entry point for bacteria and the pulp can get infected even without decay. When the pulp gets infected the main symptoms can be tenderness and pain when biting as well as extreme sensitivity to hot or cold. Antibiotics have a limited capability to treat infections here leaving two treatment options. Your dentist will extract the infected tooth or attempt to save it by completing root canal treatment. Root canal treatment has been reported by most studies to have a success rate of 80-90 per cent. During treatment, the pathways that the nerve and blood vessels extend into the teeth need to be cleaned and sealed to reduce the amount of bacteria in the tooth, giving your body a chance to heal the infection. Teeth can have one or multiple root canals. A side-effect of completing the treatment is weakening the tooth as the canal needs to be enlarged to allow adequate cleaning. So these teeth often have crowns placed to give the tooth more strength and a better seal on the top of the tooth.

ASK THE EXPERTS Mouth sores time limit Q. I keep suffering from mouth sores – do I need to go and see my dentist? A. There are different types of mouth sores, some can cause you to feel pain and some just don’t look very nice. Either way, it could be nothing or in some cases a sign of something more serious. If your mouth sore hasn’t gone away within a week, then it’s a good idea to book yourself in with your dentist. This is important especially if you have orthodontic braces, wear dentures, have had a filling or have cracked, broken teeth as it can often be caused by a bacterial or fungal infection. Starting off by visiting your dentist is a good idea as they will be able to examine your mouth and look for a cause of the symptoms. You may be suffering from burning mouth syndrome, have a tooth abscess, oral thrush, leukoplakia or just a regular cold sore – which can be treated with antibiotics. Most mouth sores can be easily treated, by making slight adjustments to your lifestyle. For example, you can get rid of burning mouth syndrome by cutting down on your intake of spicy or acidic foods and by quitting smoking. If it’s a tooth abscess, your dentist may recommend a root canal treatment to try and get rid of the infection and save the tooth. If you suffer from diabetes or wear dentures, the oral thrush can be eliminated through anti-fungal medication. Leukoplakia is sometimes associated with cancer but often caused by ill-fitted dentures or crowns. Your dentist can examine your mouth to find the source of any irritation.

Q. I’m over 65 years old and my teeth are getting weaker. What can I do to look after them? A. The good news is that due to the better overall dental care resources available, it has become a lot easier for older patients to keep their natural teeth for a lot longer than they were able to 10 years ago. Of course, it’s important to keep in mind that as you get older, you need to take extra care of your teeth because there’s a higher risk of you developing certain dental conditions that you may have been immune to when you were younger. Some of the common conditions you’re at risk of developing are gum disease caused by plaque build-up and poor dental hygiene as well as smoking, poorly fitted dentures and diabetes. Others include dry mouth – which is caused by a lack of saliva flowing through your mouth – and root decay. This is caused when your gums recede as you get older and the root of your teeth become exposed to acids that can cause decay. You may notice that your teeth have become a lot more sensitive, too – something which can be as a result of brushing with a hardbristled brush and worn tooth enamel. Therefore, to stay on top of your teeth and to keep them as healthy and natural for as long as you can, you should brush at least twice a day using a toothpaste with a high concentration of fluoride. If you smoke, then try to cut down or quit altogether and use antibacterial mouthwash to keep the plaque build-up at bay. * For more information about dental issues, contact Synergy Dental Clinics Bolton, email bolton@synergydental. org. uk or go to synergydental. org. uk/dentist-in-bolton

This type of check-up helps your dentist when it comes to evaluating your oral health as well as helping them to determine any treatment plans. Essentially, they examine your mouth and gain important information about your teeth and gums from it. They will also make notes from it so that they have a full record of your dental health. During the process of charting, your dentist is measuring the gum tissue around each tooth. Each tooth has six sides that need to be measured, which is why you may hear quite a few numbers between one and seven being called out. These numbers relate to how deep the pockets of your gums are in millimetres. If you hear numbers between one and three, it’s a sign that your gums are in good health. However, if you bleed during the process, your gums may be in the early stages of developing some serious problems. If you hear numbers that are higher than three, it could be a sign of something worse. Which means you either have early stages of gum disease and you require a professional clean every few months. Or, it could mean that your gum disease is too advanced and needs surgery. Gum disease is a serious issue which can lead to you losing teeth as well as increasing your risk of complications with your heart. * For more information about dental issues, contact Synergy Dental Clinics Bury, email bury@synergydental. org. uk or go to synergydental. org. uk/dentist-in-bury

Q. How can I get my teeth looking white for when I go on holiday? A. Most people tend not to pay too much attention to the colour of their teeth because they assume that by brushing regularly and having a robust dental hygiene regime in place, their teeth will be naturally white. This isn’t always the case as there are several reasons why your teeth may not be perfectly white. The same way we have different coloured hair and skin tones, our teeth can also be different. Our teeth can also become stained from food and certain drinks like tea, coffee, red wine and dark fruits. The two most common ways of making them whiter are laser whitening and professional bleaching. If you’re looking for instant results, then I recommend speaking to your dentist about laser whitening treatments. The procedure can take as little as 30 minutes. They will place a rubber shield over your teeth to protect your gums and paint your teeth with a special bleach. A laser is then shone on your teeth to activate the peroxide gel in the bleach which enters your teeth and lightens them from the inside out. Professional bleaching takes slightly longer and involves using a gum shield, specifically moulded for your teeth, and applying a whitening product for up to one hour at a time. Your dentist may do the first treatment, leaving you to continue the rest at home. After you’ve completed your treatment, always try to ensure that you brush your teeth at least twice a day and reduce the amount of sugary foods and drinks you consume. * For more information about dental issues, contact Synergy Dental Clinics Bolton, email bolton@synergydental. org. uk or go to synergydental. org. uk/dentist-in-bolton

Q. Do you have any tips on how I can treat sensitive teeth? A. Having sensitive teeth can mean a number of things and can range from mild discomfort that lasts a few minutes to severe discomfort that can last for a few hours. It is usually caused when the softer dentine, which is protected by the enamel on our teeth, becomes exposed. This can be caused by a number of things – the most common one being regular exposure to cold drinks or foods. Sometimes, hot foods and drinks can also make your teeth feel sensitive. Other causes of sensitive teeth include dental erosion, which is caused by the loss of tooth enamel from eating or drinking too many acidic foods and drinks. A build-up of tartar and plaque around the gums area can also cause the gums to become weak and even damage the bony support of the tooth. If you are suffering from sensitive teeth regularly, it is best to go and speak with your dentist. They will look at your teeth, give you a definitive diagnosis as to what is causing the sensitivity and be able to treat it accordingly. They may apply fluoride gel or a special varnish over the course of multiple appointments to try and build up protection, as it can take more than one appointment for sensitive teeth to settle. If the sensitivity is not too severe then your dentist may recommend a toothpaste with a higher concentration of fluoride and advise you to rub it on the affected areas for a few weeks. * For more information about dental issues, contact Synergy Dental Clinics Bolton, email bolton@synergydental. org. uk or go to synergydental. org. uk/dentist-in-bolton

Q. How can I combat bad breath? A. Bad breath is one of the most common oral health problems and there can be many reasons for it. The bacteria coating the inside of your mouth release gases that are odorous. Sometimes, the smell can be caused by rotting food which is stuck in between your teeth and on your tongue. This can be made worse if you have consumed something particularly strong-smelling such as onions, garlic or coffee. Consistent bad breath can be one of the first signs that you may have gum disease. Bad breath can also be medically related. Xerostomia, otherwise known as “dry mouth” is where your mouth cannot produce enough saliva. This means that bacteria buildup in the mouth is causing bad breath. It can also be caused by infections in the nose, throat, lungs or even liver or kidney problems. One way to test for bad breath is to lick the inside of your wrist and smell it. If it smells bad, this should indicate that your breath does, too. Brush your teeth regularly last thing at night and on at least one other occasion every day. Use fluoride toothpaste and brush your tongue to get rid of lingering food bits. You should also clean in between your teeth using floss or an interdental brush at least once a day. Visit your dentist regularly so that they can spot any issues early on. If your mouth is found to be healthy by the dentist, you might be referred to your GP or a specialist to find the root cause of your bad breath. * For more information about dental issues, contact Synergy Dental Clinics Bolton, email bolton@synergydental. org. uk or go to synergydental. org. uk/dentist-in-bolton

Q. What foods can I eat to keep my teeth and gums healthy? A. It might not be the first thing that comes to mind, but the difference between having healthy gums and a picture perfect smile could be your diet. Even if your dental hygiene is of a high standard, not watching what you eat can make it difficult to keep your teeth healthy and up to a good standard. Our teeth are important. That’s why the majority of us like to take such good care of them by brushing them thoroughly twice a day, flossing and using mouthwash. Even though we like to take such good care of our mouths, tooth decay and gum disease seem to be some of the most common diseases affecting many of us. It’s often quite easy to overlook the fact that what foods we eat are important to how good our overall oral health can be. But it doesn’t have to be that way, as there are many types of foods out there that you may not be aware of that not only cause minimal damage to your teeth but can provide a huge improvement to your oral health. Therefore eating foods that are rich in calcium, vitamin D and vitamin C can help to keep your teeth and gums healthy. Better still, these foods can be found quite easily in the supermarkets. Food items like yogurt, cheese, and low-fat milk are rich in calcium. Fruit and vegetables such as oranges, kiwi, strawberries, broccoli and kale very good sources of vitamin C whilst fish, cod liver oil, and egg yolk are great sources of vitamin D. Q. How healthy are‘healthy’ food products such as juices and smoothies? A. Fruit juices and smoothies that are often labeled as ‘healthy’ may not be healthy after all, due to the amount of sugar some of them contain. It’s always a challenge to educate people on how much sugars are hidden in food and drink which are labeled ‘healthy’– often, they contain high levels of sugar within them. Many people are unaware of this, due to the fact that they are endorsed by famous health professionals and celebrities. Some patients are often surprised when they continually have problems with tooth decay, even though they seem to be following the advice given by their dentists–of brushing twice a day and using the correct toothpaste. There’s a high chance this can be because of hidden sugars within their diets, especially in these apparently‘healthy’drinks and snacks. As dentists, it’s important for us to provide useful information to our patients, to highlight the dangers that hidden sugars can pose for their oral health as well as their overall health. Sugar causes your teeth to decay because it reacts with bacteria that is present on them, creating acid which attaches to the tooth surface. When your teeth start to decay, it’s important to visit the dentist for an assessment which can either lead to the decaying teeth needing to be filled in or taken out altogether. Regularly consuming high levels of sugar can have detrimental effects on your oral and general health. Especially, if it’s being done with the intention of pursuing a healthier lifestyle.

Q. How often should I really brush my teeth? A. The earlier you begin getting into the habit of maintaining the welfare of your teeth, the more beneficial it will be for you in the long-term. Most of us want to look good when we smile and it’s important that all aspects of our oral hygiene are of a high standard. According to a study conducted last year, 40per cent of the population didn’t brush their teeth even once a day. To put that into context, that’s approximately 24 million members of the public. The worst offenders among the results of that survey were those aged 26-34, with only half of them brushing their teeth once a day. Forty percent admitted that they felt too embarrassed to show their teeth in a photograph and nearly a quarter of them admitted that they were ashamed of their teeth. It doesn’t matter how old you are, your teeth are an important part of your facial make up and especially today, with the number of photos people are uploading on to social media, looking after your teeth couldn’t be more important. The advice I give to all of my patients is to brush their teeth at least twice a day as well as aiming to brush their teeth after each meal to stop any damage to your tooth enamel. If you want to take that a step further then I recommend flossing and it’s important to use a toothpaste with the right concentration of fluoride so that you can keep your teeth and gums in the best possible state. Q. Which alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks are best to stay cool during summer? A. Who loves nothing more than a cold cocktail or two during a hot summer day? Your body loses essential fluids and your blood sugars tarts to drop, so it can be easy to get carried away and buy the wrong drinks to quench your thirst and damage your teeth. Whether you’re enjoying a day out at the park, or an afternoon with friends in a beer garden, there are plenty of ways you can reduce the amount of sugars you consume, or cut them out altogether. According to studies, some of them or popular alcoholic drinks that people like are cocktails of spirits like gin, vodka, and rum which have no sugar in them mixed with sugar heavy juices or soft drinks such as cranberry juice, lemonade or coke–each glass can contain up to 60 percent of your daily intake. Instead, opting for a beer, a glass of red wine or prosecco could be a better option for you as they all contain less than three percent of your daily sugar intake. If you don’t drink alcohol, the usual option for people is an energy drink or a glass of coke/lemonade–but there’s also high levels of sugar in these, too. Better alternatives are either sparkling or still water, with fresh wedges of lemon/lime or a few mint leaves. If you’re just out and about, try to avoid isotonic sports drinks and opt instead for either bottled mineral water or coconut water–which are packed full of electrolytes and minerals and are sugar-free.

Q. I have asthma and it makes my mouth dry and gums red. Have you got any tips? A. People suffering from asthma are more likely to develop gum disease, according to studies from the Oral Health Foundation. Asthma is a serious condition which makes breathing difficult because it narrows the airways – affecting around 5. 4 million people in the UK. Even though there is no real cure for it, there are many treatments available to help you breathe a little more easily. Although the medication may be effective, they can cause some issues around your overall dental health. Because the majority of asthma sufferers are mouth-breathers, dry mouth is an extremely common problem with which they are faced. When you have dry mouth, it is because there isn’t enough saliva being produced to keep your mouth hydrated and healthy. After using an inhaler, or other asthma treatments, you should rinse your mouth with water or a fluoride mouthwash to wash out the medication which contains drying ingredients. Also ensure that you keep your mouth hydrated by drinking water regularly. Because of this, asthma sufferers should look out for early signs of gum disease which include inflamed red gums, bleeding when brushing and constant bad breath. According to Dr Nigel Carter, CEO of the Oral Health Foundation, gum disease can be avoided by following simple advice. This involves brushing your teeth twice a day and making sure you clean in between your teeth regularly, too. It is also beneficial to visit your dentist regularly as it could help find and treat early signs of gum disease. * For more information about dental issues, contact Synergy Dental Clinics Bolton, email bolton@synergydental. org. uk or go to synergydental. org. uk/treatments

Q. My children play sports that put their teeth at risk. Is a mouth guard the right solution? A. One of the worst scenarios for any parent, as well as anyone who is involved in contact heavy sports is what they would do in the event that their tooth is knocked out. A lot of sports require the participants to wear mouth guards – from acrobatics, boxing, mixed martial arts, rugby and football to name but a few, and there are different types of mouth guards that you can get, which will provide different levels of protection. Talk to your dentist and discuss the benefits of the options available. A custom-made mouth guard is probably the best option available and will be uniquely designed by your dentist. First, impressions of your teeth will be made and using special material, the mouth guard will be molded over the model. They’re a bit more expensive but provide better comfort and more importantly, protection! Cheaper, ready-made mouth guards are widely available in numerous sports shops and come in various sizes but don’t really allow for any adjustment for the person who will be wearing it. The other option is a ‘boil & bite’ mouth guard, which is made out of thermoplastic and placed in hot water to enable it to soften and then be molded around the teeth with pressure. Losing a tooth would mean not being able to smile, talk or even eat properly – meaning so many crucial day-to-day functions would become difficult all of a sudden. Until your teeth are gone, you might not really consider the implications of losing them.

Q. How bad are sugary sweets for children’s teeth? A. Sweets — whether they’re big or small, hard-boiled or chewy — are a weak spot for so many of us. As children we were always rewarded with sweets for being well-behaved, completing chores and as birthday treats. Throughout our lives, we have been led to believe that sugary sweets are the only cause of tooth decay and cavities. But this isn’t the case because, while sweets have a lot of refined sugar in them, other factors do come into play. Some of us continue that tradition with our own children, but it’s important to remember that the risks we were brought up believing still exist, and more! For instance, eating hard-boiled or chewy sweets, lollipops and mints can cause different kinds of damage to teeth. Chewing too vigorously or biting with too much force can chip, crack and even break teeth. How frequently your child eats sweets also has an impact. If they’re eating sweets quite regularly then obviously, it leads to tooth decay faster. Tooth decay is caused when there are substrates and micro-organisms present in the mouth. Substrates are quite simply carbohydrates found in fruits, bread, pasta, cookies, juices and sweets, etc. Bacteria doesn’t know the difference between refined sugars or natural sugars, such as lactose, glucose or fructose. Therefore, when any form of sugar is present in the mouth, the bacteria that work on these sugars produce acids. This leads to the tooth structures breaking down and causing cavities. So it’s a good idea to get children rinse their mouth after eating sticky, sugary sweets. * For information about dental issues, contact Synergy Dental Clinics Bolton, email bury@synergydental. org. uk or go to https://synergydental. org. uk/synergy-dental/dentist-in-bolton/

Q. Can gum disease can lead to other health problems? A. According to a number of research and studies, gum disease can be dangerous to more than just your teeth. Sticky bacterial plaque that builds up on your teeth and bleeding, inflamed gums have been linked to a host of other health problems. Although the causes have not been established, there are links between gum disease and diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, heart disease and Alzheimer’s. It cannot be said for certain what the link is but scientific research suggests that bacteria can get into the bloodstream and affect the major organs. Inflammation is likely a common factor because gum disease due to inflammation can increase inflammation throughout your body. If you are diabetic, you’re more likely to have gum disease than people that don’t have diabetes. Inflammation may play a part because people with diabetes are more likely to get gum disease and other infections. Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease caused by inflammation and joint pain. People who suffer from this illness are also more likely to have gum disease than those who don’t. Certain studies have found that they had more missing teeth, too. A study conducted by King’s College London and the University of Southampton discovered that gum disease sufferers were 70 per cent more likely to develop Alzheimer’s. They also found it was linked with making dementia worse as well as increasing the decline of people suffering from Alzheimer’s. Gum disease can be avoided and is treatable by making sure you follow a consistent oral health regime.

Q. My jaw keeps on locking up whenever I try to open and close it. Why is that? A. The feeling you get when your jaw becomes stuck whenever you try to open or close can be a mixture of pain and panic. Sometimes, people seem to assume the worst, so it’s important to know what the symptoms are and what they mean. Often, people mix up their terminology when describing symptoms of their jaw locking up. The majority describe it as ‘lockjaw’– which is actually an extremely serious bacterial infection, when in fact you’ll be suffering from ‘jawlock’. There are two potential reasons why this might be the case, both related to different aspects and functions of your jaw. One of them is that the temporomandibular joint – which connects your lower jaw to your skull – is unbalanced or damaged. This could be from grinding teeth, clenching your jaw or if you have sustained an injury. When the cartilage becomes damaged it can cause the jaw to get stuck. The other is severe malocclusion– which is when the top and bottom teeth don’t fit too well when you bite. When this does happen, the muscles in your jaw tend to tighten up and struggles to function properly. The most common symptoms are pain around your jaw, neck, cheek and ear, and/or hearing a popping or clicking sound every time you move your jaw. Sometimes the symptoms may become worse when you chew. But, because the symptoms to vary from person-to-person, it’s always best to visit your dentist to get an accurate diagnosis.

Q. Do piercings on my mouth affect my dental health and put me at risk of getting dental infections? A. According to the American Dental Association cheek, tongue or lip piercings can interfere with your chewing, swallowing or speech. Simply put, any procedure that contains the breaking of skin surface or tissue in your mouth increases the chances of infections. This opens a gateway for any bacteria that lives on the surface of your skin to manifest itself on the inside of the mouth. Lip piercings in particular are prone to infections because they are a part of the skin surface as well as the mouth cavity. However, if looked after properly, the risk is reduced significantly. That is because the tissue in your mouth heals a lot quicker, due to the bloody supply and oxygen. Therefore, the quicker it heals, the lesser the chance of any infections. Tongue or lip piercings can damage your teeth, as they are made of hard material. They can cause trauma to the oral tissue and then lead to your teeth wearing down over time. Even during the process, it’s important to ensure that the parlour you go to follows strict hygiene and sterilisation processes. To avoid any implications relating to your oral health, make sure you go to your dentist to get a check-up. If you already have any implications related to your oral health, I would advise you not to get a piercing. However, if you do get a piercing, ensure that the area around the piercing is kept clean and try to avoid smoking until the area has healed. * For more information about dental issues, contact Synergy Dental Clinics Bolton, email bolton@synergydental. org. uk or go to https://synergydental. org. uk/synergy-dental/dentist-in-bolton/

Q. I keep getting regular headaches and pain in my jaw. Do my teeth need to be checked? A. Sometimes, when you have problems not just in your teeth, but in your gums, the muscles that operate the jaw or in the joint that connects the jaw are to blame. This is known as dental occlusion. If you’re suffering from regular headaches, it could be because your jaw isn’t positioned correctly. It means that the muscles that move the jaw are required to work a lot harder and get fatigued. This leads to muscle spasms which can cause regular headaches or migraines normally first thing in the morning. Other symptoms can be pain behind your eyes or in your neck and your shoulders. Constant pain in your jaw could mean that your temporomandibular joint — which connects your skull to the lower jaw — is unbalanced and needs to be looked at by your dentist. You may wake up in the morning with a stiff jaw or feel tenderness if you have a habit of grinding your teeth or clenching your jaw in your sleep. The jaw pain can become worse if you’re feeling a lot of stress and tension but may go away. There are ways you can deal with this — by wearing a dental guard while sleeping and even taking part in relaxation therapy to help you control stress and tension. My advice is to go and visit your dentist as they can examine your mouth, assess the symptoms and either try and treat the problem themselves or refer you to a specialist to help deal with the problem. * For more information about dental issues, contact Synergy Dental Clinics Bolton or Bury, email bury@synergydental. org. uk or go to https://synergydental. org. uk/synergy-dental/dentist-in-bury/

Q. What should I do if my dental crown breaks or comes out unexpectedly? A. Crowns are quite a common form of dental restoration, which are used to preserve the shape and size of the teeth. They strengthen teeth that have been damaged and protect teeth that are likely to fracture. So when it falls out or breaks when you are not expecting it, it can provide a lot of inconvenience. Don’t worry, however, it isn’t the end of the world. Once it falls out, if the crown is still intact then you may still be able to put it back over the tooth temporarily. Just make sure the inside of the crown is clean and apply some dental adhesive over it. You can buy this from pharmacies. If you have lost the crown or it becomes damaged then this leaves the tooth tissue exposed. Therefore, you can either apply a bit of clove oil with a cotton swab if it feels sensitive or some dental cement directly on to the tooth’s surface. In any case, book yourself in to see your dentist as soon as possible so that it can be fixed. A crown that has fallen out or is lost can cause a lot of pain and have a negative psychological effect as well. If you have the crown, your dentist may be able to fit it back, provided he or she is satisfied that it isn’t damaged or infected. If the crown has been lost or damaged, then they will simply fit a temporary crown and call you back in for the permanent fixture. * For more information about dental issues, contact Synergy Dental Clinics Bolton, email bolton@synergydental. org. uk or go to https://synergydental. org. uk/synergy-dental/dentist-in-bolton/

When it comes to your six monthly appointment, it can seem like an effort to visit your dentist – especially if your teeth don’t tend to cause you many problems throughout the rest of the year. But it’s important to remember that it is about much more. You might have noticed that whenever you do go for your appointments, your dentist may take x-rays of your teeth. This is so they can see what the human eye can’t and help identify issues there may be below the gums. Sometimes, there may be an abscess, bone loss in your jaw or damage below the surface of your teeth. Your gums are examined thoroughly for any irregularities as they are crucial towards ensuring your mouth and body are in the best shape. For example, if you notice bleeding on the gums when you brush, it may be the early stages of gum disease. Furthermore, your dentist isn’t just looking out for signs of the usual dental health issues, like tooth decay or gum disease. They are trained to keep an eye out for, and recording, more serious signs related to your oral health, too. Early signs of oral cancer can include red or white patches in your mouth, bleeding without any cause or unexplained lumps on your cheeks, lips or gums. Even having bad breath could indicate that something more serious is at play. An early diagnosis increases your chances of finding treatment options sooner rather than later. * For more information about dental issues, contact Synergy Dental Clinics Bolton, email bolton@synergydental. org. uk or go to https://synergydental. org. uk/synergy-dental/dentist-in-bolton/

Q. I’ve got multiple teeth missing and my dentist has recommended implants. How important is it to get them? A. I would say that replacing missing teeth is extremely important for a number of reasons. And dental implants are probably the best option, too. A dental implant is a tiny titanium alloy screw which is used to replace your missing natural teeth. It’s drilled into your jawbone so that it can be firmly attached to the artificial teeth. The reasons why getting teeth replaced is important are because of the impact it can have on your oral health, comfort within the mouth, and appearance. Even when you lose a single tooth, it affects your dental structure as a whole. The gap that’s created can shift the remaining teeth with even the most normal chewing motions. This can then lead to further problems down the line, particularly if the structure of the mouth interferes with your ability to chew foods. From a comfort perspective, it can be unpleasant when a hard piece of food comes in between the exposed root of a missing tooth. This results in some people giving up foods they love because of it, which impacts their quality of life. Losing one tooth or even multiple teeth can cause emotional stress, affect our confidence and even lead to depression. Having a dental implant can be effective in boosting your morale as well as your overall appearance. You won’t feel any pain during the procedure of getting an implant as you will be under local anaesthetic. However, you may feel discomfort in the week afterwards. * For more information about dental issues, contact Synergy Dental Clinics Bolton, email bolton@synergydental. org. uk or go to https://synergydental. org. uk/synergy-dental/dentist-in-bolton/

Q. I regularly feel a warm, burning sensation in my mouth – how can I get rid of it? A. It sounds like you may be suffering from Burning Mouth Syndrome, also known as glossodynia. It can cause areas of your mouth to feel like they are burning, even if they are not necessarily hot to touch. There are a number of causes for this burning sensation such as reaction to certain toothpaste, allergies to dentures or mouthwashes, anxiety, stress, and depression. Certain medical conditions can also bring about the sensation — like acid reflux, dry mouth, nutritional deficiencies, and diabetes. Although anyone can suffer from this, it is more common in middle-aged or older women. Typically, sufferers will start to feel the burning sensation begin in the morning with it continuing throughout the day and easing by night-time. Others may feel the burning sensation all the time. My advice would be to try and ease the symptoms yourself by ensuring you’re drinking water regularly, avoiding certain foods and drinks that may irritate your mouth — like acidic fruits and juices, spicy foods and mouthwashes that contain alcohol. Also, try sucking on crushed ice. If you smoke, then this is a good opportunity to try and quit smoking and even reducing the amount of alcohol you consume will help. If the problem persists, then I recommend visiting your dentist first as they will be able to check if it’s caused by a dental issue and make recommendations accordingly. And if it isn’t a dental issue then they may refer you to your doctor or a specialist. * For more information about dental issues, contact Synergy Dental Clinics Bolton or Bury, email bury@synergydental. org. uk or go to https://synergydental. org. uk/synergy-dental/dentist-in-bury/

Q. I have quite a few broken teeth, would having a crown fix them? A. Crowns, also known as caps, are when teeth are artificially restored and are placed on the remaining part of a tooth or teeth, in order to strengthen them and give the shape of natural teeth. They’re made from a range of materials like porcelain, ceramic, glass and gold, but the most popular options crowns that are made from porcelain bonded to metal–due to its durability and strength. They’re a particularly suitable replacement for broken teeth or teeth that have become weak as a result of decay or large fillings. Can even be used to improve the appearance of teeth that have become discoloured from fillings and you want to improve the appearance of them. So, if you’re not happy with the way your teeth look and want to have a natural looking smile then it’s worth speaking with your dentist about the available options in order to enhance them. The process of getting a crown fitted is quite straight forward and usually takes place over two appointments. The first appointment will be when the dentist prepares your tooth by removing a layer from the outer surface off your tooth, roughly the same thickness as the crown. You’ll get a temporary crown put in place so you can use the tooth while your permanent crown is made. During the second visit your dentist will fit the crown permanently, and once you’re happy with it, your dentist will fit the tooth with special cement to hold it in place.

DENTAL DILEMMAS – Dr Richard Ho from Synergy Dental Clinics helps with advice on dental problems Q. How can I help my children stop being so scared of visiting the dentist? A. Fear is an emotion we all feel in our lives from time to time. By definition, fear is something that is caused when we feel danger, threat or harm. When your child is apprehensive or scared of going to the dentist, it does not always mean that they are scared of the dentist in particular. The majority of times, it has to do with the myths that children are told as well as a genuine fear of the unknown. It could also be that they know their teeth may need some treatment, or they have genuinely had a negative experience and feel scared to go back to the dentist. Either way, there are some methods you can try to ensure that they gradually begin to beat their fears. You should try to introduce your child to the habit of visiting a dentist as early as the age of one or when their first tooth comes through. The earlier they are able to identify with the routine of visiting a dentist, the more they will become subconsciously accustomed to it. Try not to be too vivid when describing what going to the dentist may entail. Dentists usually like to introduce their own terminology when explaining aspects of dental treatment and care to children. It is absolutely normal for young children to whinge and whine when they don’t want to take part in something. The best thing to do is stay calm and let the dentists work their magic! * For more information about dental issues, contact Synergy Dental Clinics Bolton, email bolton@synergydental. org. uk or go to synergydental. org. uk/dentist-in-bolton

Q. What is a veneer and how do I know if I need one? A. Dental veneers are thin layers of porcelain or composite material that fit over the surface of a tooth and is bonded in place using dental cement. If your teeth are chipped, out of line, discoloured or just spaced unevenly, dental veneers can be used to fix those inconsistencies and help to provide you with a natural, attractive look. Veneers are especially useful, and less invasive if you have multiple teeth that are out of line and you want a simple, pain-free solution that helps give your smile a natural, engaging look. They can be a lot cheaper than having some of the more extensive treatments such as orthodontic braces or having individual crowns put in. The procedure itself is quite straightforward and can be completed in two visits. The first visit will be to prepare the tooth that requires the veneer. This involves some of the outer enamel surfaces of the tooth being removed. This ensures that the thickness of the veneer matches the amount of enamel that is removed so that your teeth stay the same size. An impression of your teeth will be taken and given to a dental technician who will make the veneers. Once this is completed, it’s time to have the veneers placed which will be done with a special adhesive cement to ensure they stay permanently in place. Typically, after the veneers are fitted they will take a while to get used to and you may get called in for a check-up and polish a week later. * For more information about dental issues, contact Synergy Dental Clinics Bolton or Bury, email bury@synergydental. org. uk or go to https://synergydental. org. uk/synergy-dental/dentist-in-bury/

Dr Richard Ho from Synergy Dental Clinics helps with advice on dental problems Q. Is it possible for a crowned tooth to get decay? A. Crowns are usually used to strengthen a damaged tooth. Whether it’s damaged from physical damage or through decayed teeth, crowns significantly improve the appearance, alignment and shape of teeth. The reason why crowned teeth can have decay is because of plaque, which forms at the gum line. This area of the crown is known as the margin – the junction where the tooth and crown meet. When the dentist initially makes and fits the crown for you, they cut around the tooth. They do this so that the crown can fit right over it and build a normal-shaped tooth. If you allow plaque to build up at the margin and it isn’t removed, a new cavity will form. This will mean that, eventually, your crown will need to be replaced. So, it’s really important to ensure you continue to practice the proper dental hygiene methods to prevent this. Crowns are made from durable materials so that they last long but like anything, they are susceptible to wear and tear. If you want them to be long-lasting then you have to make sure you brush and floss quite regularly. This will ensure that all remaining food particles and debris, as well as plaque surrounding it, has been removed. You may even be advised to use special cleaning tools, too. It’s important to visit your dentist every three-to-six months. This helps your dentist to properly examine all of your restorations and look out for any signs of cavities. Regular cleaning reduces the amount of damage to your crowns.

Q. I’m scared to visit my dentist. Can you help? A. According to NHS statistics, about 25 percent of us don’t like going to the dentist — it’s one of the most common phobias people face. If you’re worried that the dentists won’t understand your fears, let me assure that they will. We’ve seen and heard it all before. For some, it may bring back bad memories from when they were a child, or maybe a close friend or family member has had a bad experience. Whatever the reason, there are ways to overcome these fears. If you’ve not been to the dentist for a number of years and are concerned about your teeth but feel nervous, start by booking yourself in for a simple check-up. This will be a simple clean and polish, giving you a chance to get yourself familiar with the dentist and building up trust and a relationship as well as giving them the opportunity to assess whether you require further treatment or not. It can result in not having to go back for another 12 months or being advised that you require treatment. Either way, you’ll be better prepared to return. Other methods include using distraction and relaxation techniques like bringing your earphones to an appointment so that you can listen to music or asking a nurse to talk to you and help take your mind off things and put you at ease. You can even take your friends along. I have many patients who bring their friends along with them and you’d be surprised how much of a difference that makes. * For more information about dental issues, contact Synergy Dental Clinics Bolton or Bury, email bury@synergydental. org. uk or go to https://synergydental. org. uk/synergy-dental/dentist-in-bury/

Q. Do you have any tips on what natural remedies I should use for healthy teeth and gums? A. This is a question I get asked often by patients, for a number of reasons. Sometimes people are just curious and want to try nature based alternatives to mouthwashes and toothpastes – using household ingredients they may find in their kitchen – and at other times, people have tried them and genuinely prefer them. Eating fruits and vegetables that have vitamin C in them are a great way of ensuring that your gums stay healthy. It keeps them protected against cell damage and makes them more resilient to bacteria, especially crunchy fruits and vegetables like apples, celery and carrots. There are more natural alternatives to using mouthwashes such as sesame oil and coconut oil. Sesame oil has the qualities to remove toxins and plaque, give your teeth and gums a protective coating and prevent dental decay. Coconut oil is antimicrobial and helps to keep your gums healthy as well as preventing food particles from sticking to your teeth. You could also use the fresh gel from the Aloe Vera plant to brush your teeth and if your gums are damaged or infected, they even help to speed up the healing process, too. The first and probably most important step is to ensure that you eat a healthy diet to keep your teeth and gums healthy. This means avoiding excess sugars and making sure that you brush your teeth at least twice a day for two minutes, using a fluoride toothpaste.

Q. How healthy are ‘healthy’ food products such as juices and smoothies? A. Fruit juices and smoothies that are often labelled as ‘healthy’ may not be healthy after all, due to the amount of sugar some of them contain. It’s always a challenge to educate people on how much sugars are hidden in food and drink that are labelled ‘healthy’ - often, they contain high levels of sugar within them. Many people are unaware of this, due the fact that they are endorsed by famous health professionals and celebrities. Some patients are often surprised when they continually have problems with tooth decay, even though they seem to be following the advice given by their dentists - of brushing twice a day and using the correct toothpastes. There’s a high chance this can be because of hidden sugars within their diets, especially in these apparently ‘healthy’ drinks and snacks. As dentists, it’s important for us to provide useful information to our patients, to highlight the dangers that hidden sugars can pose for their oral health as well as their overall health. Sugar causes your teeth to decay because it reacts with bacteria that is present on them, creating acid which attached to the tooth surface. When your teeth start to decay, it’s important to visit the dentist for an assessment which can either lead to the decaying teeth needing to be filled in or taken out altogether. Regularly consuming high levels of sugar can have detrimental effects on your oral and general health. Especially, if it’s being done with the intention of pursuing a healthier lifestyle. *For more information about dental problems contact Synergy Dental Clinics Ormskirk, email: ormskirk@synergydental. org. uk or go to: https://synergydental. org. uk/synergy-dental/dentist-in-ormskirk/

Q. Me and my partner suffer from chronic morning breath. Is it a sign of something worse? A. The infamous ‘morning breath’ can be a real problem for some people but it is nothing worse than plain old bad breath – otherwise known as halitosis. If you think that you are the only one who suffers from morning breath, rest assured that we all suffer from it in some capacity, although some of us won’t suffer as badly as others. The biggest trigger of morning breath is dry mouth which is caused as a result of your mouth lacking in saliva – this is completely normal as your mouth naturally dries when you sleep at night – making it a feeding ground for bacteria. There are numerous other reasons for having bad breath in general – poor oral hygiene, infections in your mouth, smoking, chewing tobacco and in some cases, mouth cancer. If you are worried then speak with your dentist or GP. Therefore, it is important to ensure that your oral hygiene routine is robust and consists of brushing first thing in the morning and before you go to sleep at night. This is as well as ensuring your mouth is fresh throughout the day, either by chewing sugar-free gum or using mouthwash whenever you feel your breath is starting to smell. Before you go to sleep at night, try to avoid eating foods like garlic or onions as well as drinking coffee. Make sure you drink water before you go to sleep and keep a bottle close by for if you wake up thirsty in the middle of the night.

Q. I’ve heard gum disease can lead to other health problems. Is this true? A. According to a number of research and studies, gum disease can be dangerous to more than just your teeth. Sticky bacterial plaque that builds up on your teeth and bleeding, inflamed gums have been linked to a host of other health problems. Although the causes haven’t been established, there are links between gum disease and diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, heart disease and Alzheimer’s. It can’t be said for certain what the link is but scientific research suggests that bacteria can get into the bloodstream and affect the major organs. Inflammation is likely a common factor because gum disease due to inflammation can increase inflammation throughout your body. If you are diabetic, you’re more likely to have gum disease than people that don’t have diabetes. Inflammation may play a part because people with diabetes are more likely to get gum disease and other infections. Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease caused by inflammation and joint pain. People who suffer from this illness are also more likely to have gum disease than those who don’t. Certain studies have found that they had more missing teeth, too. A study conducted by King’s College London and the University of Southampton discovered that gum disease sufferers were 70 percent more likely to develop Alzheimer’s. They also found it was linked with making dementia worse as well as increasing the decline of people suffering from Alzheimer’s. The good news is that gum disease can be avoided and is completely treatable by making sure you follow a consistent oral health regime. * For information about dental issues, contact Synergy Dental Clinics Bolton or Bury, email bury@synergydental. org. uk or https://synergydental. org. uk/synergy-dental/dentist-in-bury/

Dr Richard Ho from Synergy Dental Clinics helps with advice on dental problems Q. Are you getting the most out of your brushing? A. Tooth brushing has a long history in dental care and has been shown to reduce the risk of tooth decay and gum disease. When brushing, you’re trying to clean plaque from your teeth. Plaque is a mix of bacteria and food. If it remains on the teeth undisturbed it starts to pick up minerals from saliva which are normally used to strengthen the teeth and becomes hard. This is what dentists refer to as calculus or tartar and it needs to be removed by your dental healthcare professional as it’s now too hard to remove with a brush. Therefore, the objective of brushing is to regularly break up the plaque with brushing to stop it getting to that stage. When plaque builds up on your teeth, your gums respond by becoming inflamed (gingivitis). Gums turn red, they can become swollen, tender and can bleed. Plaque is also a usual cause for bad breath. In more severe cases (periodontitis) this can eventually result in loss of teeth. To prevent formation of plaque it’s important to focus more on cleaning along the gum line rather than just the teeth. Use a toothpaste containing fluoride. Ensure that the brush bristles are pointing down into the gums and the brush is at 45 degrees to the teeth. Gently press the brush against the gums and teeth, then make small circular movements to break up the plaque. If you’re using an electric toothbrush, it is already doing the circular movements for you. Clean each part of the mouth for three to four seconds then move on.

Q. What is preventative dentistry and how will it benefit my dental health? A Preventative dentistry is simply a modern way of making sure that you have a healthy mouth. The aim is to help you keep your teeth in the best shape and condition so that you do not need to have much dental treatment. The highest contributing factors to tooth loss are tooth decay and gum disease. That’s why, if you make more of an effort to deal with those issues, your chances of keeping your teeth for life will increase significantly. As long as you have a full or partial set of teeth, your dentist will always try to help you ensure that they stay in the best of conditions. Even with people who have no teeth, there is still some benefit, as certain conditions such as mouth cancer or denture stomatitis can be spotted during regular appointments with your dentist. That is why it is important for patients to work with their dentist because it can help to prevent the need for extensive treatment such as fillings and extractions. Sometimes, your dentist may advise you to undergo a course of treatment to help ensure your mouth is in good condition – then work on a plan to help keep on top of it. There are many preventative measures that you can also take in your day-to-day life – by cutting down the number of acidic foods and drinks you consume to avoid erosion of your teeth. Other measures include cutting down on smoking, alcoholic drinks and sugary foods and drinks. * For information about dental issues, contact Synergy Dental Clinics Bury, email bury@synergydental. org. uk or go to synergydental. org. uk

Q. I feel very nervous when it’s time to visit my dentist. Can you help? A. According to NHS statistics, about 25 per cent of us don’t like going to the dentist — it’s one of the most common phobias people face. If you are worried that the dentists won’t understand your fears, let me assure that they will. We’ve seen and heard it all before. Dentists nowadays are a lot more sympathetic about these feelings and are able to offer ways to help you when you have an appointment. One of the methods of relaxing that may be offered to you is through an intravenous sedation (IV). This is given through an injection on your arm, or on the back of your hand. Dosage amounts depend on the treatment that is required and how long it takes to complete. With IV sedation you feel drowsy and become oblivious of any treatment you’re having, but are still able to communicate. IV sedative usually takes quite a while to wear off — your dentist will be able to advise how long it will actually take. After the treatment, it can up to 24 hours for it to clear from your body. If you’re scared of needles then your dentist may be able to offer you inhalation sedation — which is the good old gas and air. This is great for helping you to feel relaxed and ease any anxieties. Don’t be afraid to speak with your dentist about sedation options because it makes it easier for both parties if you feel relaxed when receiving any treatment! * For information, contact Synergy Dental Clinics Bolton or Bury, email bury@synergydental. org. uk or go to https://synergydental. org. uk/synergy-dental/dentist-in-bury/

Q. When should I start taking my child to the dentist? A. This should happen once the first tooth emerges and no later than the first birthday. A dental visit at a timely age serves as a “well-baby examination” for the teeth. Besides inspecting for cavities and further difficulties, the dentist can show you how to clean your child’s teeth correctly and how to handle habits like thumb sucking. Get your children prepared for the appointment — talk to him or her about what’s going to happen, remaining upbeat and encouraging. Have your child rehearse opening their mouth to get them amenable for the dentist counting and checking their teeth. Reading books or watching videos related to first dental visits may help with this first visit. Parents can also prepare. When arranging the visit, ask for any required patient forms for you to fill in advance at home instead of at the practice on the day of your appointment, as this is quicker and simpler. The dentist will examine your child to ensure the jaw and teeth are emerging in the way they should. During the appointment, you will be seated in the dental chair with your child on your lap if your child isn’t able to or refuses to sit in the chair alone. The dentist will inspect for mouth injuries, cavities or other problems, then clean your child’s teeth and give you tips for day-to-day upkeep. If your child cries a little or wiggles during the appointment, don’t worry. It’s normal, and your dental team appreciates this is a new experience for your child. Unsure about your dental health? Contact Synergy Dental Clinic in Bury on 0161 764 4366 or email the team at bury@synergydental. org. uk today and they’ll take care of everything!

It’s the Easter holidays and everyone is egg-cited (sorry! ) for Easter Egg Hunts, hot cross buns and of course, indulging on plenty of Easter Eggs. In the UK, over 80 million chocolate Easter eggs are sold each year and the average child will consume an astounding £24 worth of chocolate each – that amounts to 270 teaspoons of sugar! As we all know, sugar plays a harmful role in tooth decay. Tooth decay is prevalent in children in the UK, where 1 in 10 children aged 3+ has had decayed, missing or filled teeth because of it. How can you help your child look after their teeth during the Easter holidays? Supervise them to brush the last thing at night and any other time during the day. This may sound like common sense, but it is astonishing how many children go to sleep without brushing their teeth. If they don’t brush, plaque can harden and calcify, and cannot be removed by brushing. This also increases the chance of tooth decay. By cutting down on the amount of chocolate they consume, you will also limit the amount of sugar entering their mouth, and limit the chances of tooth decay. Instead of sugary and acidic drinks, give your child water or milk to drink in between meals. Make sure to book your child in for regular check-ups at their dentist in order to build a good relationship as early as possible so that they understand the importance of good oral health.

World Oral Health Day is held every year on 20th March and aims to promote worldwide awareness of the issues surrounding oral health and the importance of oral hygiene. 90% of the worlds’ population will or has suffered from oral diseases during their lifetime due to negligence. Poor oral care can lead to serious health problems if left unchecked. The ‘Healthy Mouth. Healthy body’ campaign this year reflects the growing number of research studies carried out discussing how bad oral care increases the likelihood of certain types of health problems. One serious health problem would be developing cardiovascular disease. Bacteria from gum disease can enter your blood and travel to the arteries and in time plaque will be able to form and thicken the arteries. This then increases the risk of high blood pressure, a heart attack or a stroke. Respiratory infections in the lungs are also increased due to ingesting and breathing in bacteria from infected teeth and gums for a long period of time. Studies have also shown that people who suffer from diabetes and have gum disease have a harder time controlling their blood sugar levels. There are some things you can do on your own to prevent poor oral hygiene: Brush at least twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste, floss daily, use a fluoride mouthwash and eat less of the food and drink which can damage your teeth. By practicing better dental hygiene, you can not only help protect your teeth from damage and disease but protect your body too.

DENTAL DILEMMAS – Dr Zuber Bagasi from Synergy Dental Clinics helps with advice on dental problems Q. Do you have any tips on how I can treat sensitive teeth? A. Having sensitive teeth can mean a number of things and can range mild discomfort that lasts a few minutes to severe discomfort that can last for a few hours. It’s usually caused when the softer dentine, which is protected by the enamel on our teeth, becomes exposed. This can be caused by a number of reasons – the most common one being regular exposure to cold drinks or foods, and sometimes, hot foods and drinks can also make your teeth feel sensitive. Other causes of sensitive teeth include dental erosion, which is caused by the loss of tooth enamel from eating or drinking too many acidic foods and drinks, as well as a build-up of tartar and plaque around the gums area which can cause the gums to become weak, and even damage the bony support of the tooth. If you’re suffering from sensitive teeth regularly, it’s best to go and speak with your dentist. They will look at your teeth, give you a definitive diagnosis as to what is causing the sensitivity and be able to treat it accordingly. They may apply fluoride gel or a special varnish over the course of multiple appointments to try and build up protection – as it can take more than one appointment for sensitive teeth to settle. If the sensitivity isn’t too severe then your dentist may recommend a toothpaste with a higher concentration of fluoride and advise you to rub it on the affected areas for a few weeks.

Q. I’m off to a couple of festivals soon–any tips on how I can look after my teeth on the go? A. With the excitement that going to a music festival brings, you can be forgiven for not packing the right essentials in order to ensure that you can take the best care of your teeth. You’refilled with the excitement of watching your favourite music acts and gathering with friends to get away for a few days, amongst thousands of like-minded people who enjoy the same interest as you. But it is essential, at a music festival more than anything, to ensure you’re well equipped to look after your teeth and give them the best care. A recent study from the Oral Health Foundation found that 10% of people that attend festivals do not brush their teeth for the duration of the entire event and around 40% do so one time or less per day. With less than 15 percent having already attended a festival, or still planning on making their way to one over the summer, literally hundreds of thousands of revellers are putting their dental health at risk without recognising the consequences that they could bring. One thing to bear in mind is that usually at festivals, it can be really easy to forget about looking after your teeth–but if you’re neglecting your oral health, it could have serious consequences going forward. What you eat and drink at festivals is not really perfect for your teeth –with there being a lot of sugary and acidic foods and drinks being consumed as well as high quantities of alcohol–which means you should make it even more of a priority to look after your teeth. Another danger you should be aware of exposing your mouth too is the combination of smoking and drinking. It is quite easy to be a social smoker in the environment of a festival but in actual fact, you’re increasing your chances of getting gum disease. Therefore, chewing gum afterwards increases the production of saliva in your mouth and helps to neutralise the acids that are present within your mouth, too. Brushing your teeth twice a day– once in the morning and once before bed–will help to keep your teeth in the best possible condition and allow you to have the best possible time, too.

Root canal treatment is a procedure used to treat a tooth when bacteria infect the nerve and blood vessels inside a tooth – which is also known as the pulp. The pulp can become infected the following decay in a tooth extending past the enamel and the dentine into the pulp chamber in the centre of a tooth. This can be from a tooth which has been left untreated for too long or can happen underneath an old filling or crown. If a tooth suffers severe trauma and fractures this can cause an entry point for bacteria and the pulp can get infected even without decay. When the pulp gets infected the main symptoms can be tenderness and pain when biting as well as extreme sensitivity to hot or cold. Antibiotics have a limited capability to treat infections in the pulp chamber leaving two treatment options. Extract the infected tooth or attempt to save it by completing root canal treatment. Root canal treatment has been reported by most studies to have a success rate of 80-90%. During treatment, the pathways that the nerve and blood vessels extend into the teeth, need to be cleaned and sealed to reduce the number of bacteria in the tooth to give your body a chance to heal the infection. Teeth can have one or multiple root canals. A side effect of completing the treatment is weakening the tooth as the canal needs to be enlarged to allow adequate cleaning so these teeth often have crowns placed to give the tooth more strength and to give a better seal on the top of the tooth.

DENTAL DILEMMAS – Dr Zuber Bagasi from Synergy Dental Clinics helps with advice on dental problems Q. During pregnancy do I need to take extra care to look after my teeth? A. The type of lifestyle you live during pregnancy affects your health as well as the health of your unborn child. Of course, with the preparations you need to make during pregnancy, you can be forgiven for not having your dental health as top priority. But it is important to maintain a healthy dental care routine to avoid conditions like pregnancy gingivitis and periodontal disease. Because your teeth are made of minerals similar to your bones, it’s important to take in calcium. Taking in the right amount of calcium will aid the development of strong teeth and bones in your baby. Not only that, but it will also help to keep your bones strong, too. Due to the changes in hormones during pregnancy, you’re more at risk of developing periodontal disease. That’s why it is important for pregnant women to visit their dentist for regular check-ups, so any problems can be caught early. Pregnant women are likely to eat more frequently than normal, sometimes this will involve a lot of sweet, sugary foods. With the additional intake of sugars on a regular basis, the risk of developing cavities increase. Which means you should take that extra bit of care with your teeth – by cleaning in between your teeth regularly. Therefore ensuring that you follow proper nutrition, filled with healthy foods that involve plenty of calcium, protein, vitamin C, vitamin D and vitamin A. I’d also recommend rinsing your mouth with an alcohol-free anti-gingivitis mouthwash, too in order to get rid of any germs.

DENTAL DILEMMAS – Dr Eugene Stanley from Synergy Dental Clinics helps with advice on dental problems Q. I recently went to the dentist and he was saying numbers whilst prodding my gums. Why is that? A. It sounds like you’ve had something that is known as ‘dental charting’ or ‘periodontal charting’. This type of check-up helps your dentist when it comes to evaluating your oral health as well as helping them to determine any treatment plans. Essentially, they examine your mouth and gain important information about your teeth and gums from it. They’ll also make notes from it, so that they have a full record of your dental health. During the process of charting your dentist is measuring the gum tissue around each tooth. Each tooth has six sides that need to be measured which is why you may hear quite a few numbers, between one and seven, being called out. These numbers relate to how deep the pockets of your gums are in millimeters. If you hear numbers between one and three, it’s a sign that your gums are in good health. However, if you bleed during the process, your gums may be in the early stages of developing some serious problems. If you hear numbers that are higher than three, it could be a sign of something worse. Which means you either have early stages of gum disease and you require a professional clean every few months. Or, it could mean that your gum disease is too advanced and needs surgery. Gum disease is a serious issue which can lead to you losing teeth as well as increasing your risks of complication with your heart.

Q. What are dental caries and how can I prevent them? A. Dental caries is also known as tooth decay and cavities. It is one of the most common dental diseases, but also the one that is the easiest to prevent. They are usually formed when you eat certain foods. The bacteria from your teeth break them down to produce acid, which can do serious damage to your teeth. Usually, dental caries can be spotted on two areas of your teeth. One of them is towards the surface of your teeth, where food repeatedly comes in contact with food. The other is between your teeth and it’s on these two areas that bacteria normally aggravate the teeth. If the teeth and the surrounding areas are not looked after properly, the bacteria will digest the sugars and convert them into acids. Once the acids attack the teeth, they can demineralise the tooth enamel and form tiny holes. As the enamel breaks down, the tooth gets weaker and is unable to regenerate the calcium structures of the teeth. There are four ways that dental caries can be treated – fillings, root canal treatment, crowns or extraction. Fillings are usually the most common treatment option for dental caries with most dentists opting for that. Depending on how severe the damage is, your dentist may opt for the alternatives. The best way to prevent dental caries is to just maintain healthy oral hygiene. Brush regularly, use mouthwash and go for a check-up every six months. * Contact Synergy Dental Clinics Bury, email bury@synergydental. org. uk or go to synergydental. org. uk/dentist-in-bury

DENTAL DILEMMAS – Dr Eugene Stanley from Synergy Dental Clinics helps with advice on dental problems Q. How can I get my teeth looking white for when I go on holiday? A. Most people tend not to pay too much attention to the colour of their teeth because they assume that by brushing regularly and having a robust dental hygiene regime in place, their teeth will naturally be white. This isn’t always the case as there are several reasons why your teeth may not be perfectly white – the same way we have different colour hair and skin tones, this also applies to our teeth. Our teeth can also become stained from food and certain drinks such as tea, coffee, red wine and dark fruits. The two most common types being laser whitening and professional bleaching. If you’re looking for instant results, then I recommend speaking your dentist about laser whitening treatments. The procedure can take as little as 30 minutes – they’ll place a rubber shield over your teeth to protect your gums and paint your teeth with a special bleach. After this, they’ll shine a laser on your teeth to activate the peroxide gel that’s in the bleach, which enters your teeth and lightens them from the inside out. Professional bleaching takes slightly longer and involves using a gum shield, specifically moulded for your teeth and applying a whitening product for up to one hour at a time. Your dentist may do the first treatment, leaving you to continue the rest at home. After you’ve completed your treatment, always try to ensure that you are brushing your teeth at least twice a day and reduce the number of sugary foods and drinks you consume.

Q. I keep getting regular mouth ulcers. Is it a sign of something worse? A. Normally, if you have a single mouth ulcer, it has most probably been caused by the damage you have done by biting the inside of your mouth, cheek or tongue, or if you have sharp teeth. Sometimes, they can even be caused by brushing a bit too aggressively or if your dentures don’t fit properly — these types of ulcers are known as traumatic ulcers. If you are getting ulcers quite regularly, you will be suffering from a condition called recurrent aphthous stomatitis, which isn’t infectious but can cause you a lot of pain and discomfort. Usually, you can treat your mouth ulcers yourself. There are numerous protective pastes that you can buy over the counter in pharmacies and also buy a toothbrush with soft bristles to brush your teeth. Other ways you can speed up the healing process are staying away from foods that are spicy, contain salt or are acidic as well as hot foods and drinks until the ulcer has fully healed. The majority of mouth ulcers should heal on their own, but if they keep recurring, then I recommend seeing your dentist as they will be able to advise you on what steps you should take to ensure you can avoid recurrences. If a mouth ulcer lasts longer than three weeks, it can be a sign of mouth cancer and can be caused by smoking, drinking alcohol or infection with the human papillomavirus (HPV), something your dentist or doctor will be able to diagnose and advise treatment options for. * For help with dental issues, contact Synergy Dental Clinics Bury, email bury@synergydental. org. uk

Q. I keep getting regular headaches and pain in my jaw. Do my teeth need to be checked? A. Sometimes, when you have problems, not just in your teeth, but in your gums, this can affect the muscles that operate the jaw or in the joint that connects the jaw. This is known as dental occlusion. If you are suffering from regular headaches, it could be because your jaw isn’t positioned correctly. This means that the muscles that move the jaw are required to work a lot harder and get fatigued — leading to muscle spasms, which can cause regular headaches or migraines, normally first thing in the morning. Other symptoms can be pain behind your eyes, in your neck and your shoulders. Constant pain in your jaw could mean that your temporomandibular joint — which connects your skull to the lower jaw — is unbalanced and needs to be looked at by your dentist. You may wake up in the morning with a stiff jaw or feel tenderness if you have a habit of grinding your teeth or clenching your jaw in your sleep. The jaw pain can become worse if you are feeling a lot of stress, but this may go away. There are ways you can deal with this — by wearing a dental guard while sleeping and even taking part in relaxation therapy to help you control stress and tension. My advice is to go and visit your dentist as they can examine your mouth, assess the symptoms and either try and treat the problem themselves or refer you to a specialist to help deal with the problem for you. * For details about dental issues, contact Synergy Dental Clinics Bolton or Bury, email bury@synergydental. org. uk or go to https://synergydental. org. uk/synergy-dental/dentist-in-bury/

Q. I’m nearly 40 and feel embarrassed by my crooked teeth. Is it too late for braces? A. The majority of people who have ongoing issues with crooked teeth have usually been given the opportunity to have braces when they were younger. There are people who have missed such an opportunity and, as a result, have been left with teeth that they are not happy about. The most effective option is a traditionally fixed metal brace which has brackets and bands that are temporarily stuck to the teeth, held together by a flexible wire. For adults, the idea of traditional metal braces are embarrassing and may look unsightly in front of friends or colleagues. Nowadays, there is an option that is more appealing and practical for adults who are wishing to get straighter teeth in the form of invisible braces. In many cases, this can be easier, quicker and more affordable. Invisible braces consist of clear plastic aligners which are custom made molds designed to fit your teeth, which will gradually straighten them. These aligners are generally made to be worn for two weeks at a time and then replaced with a new one that has been modified to direct your teeth to the next step. In order to see the best results, you should wear the aligners for 23 hours a day. They can be removed during meal times and when you brush — to ensure you can clean in between your teeth. * For more information about dental issues, contact Synergy Dental Clinics Bolton or Bury, email bury@synergydental. org. uk

Q. What should I do if my dental crown breaks or comes out unexpectedly? A. Crowns are quite a common form of dental restoration which is used to preserve the shape and size of the teeth. They strengthen teeth that have been damaged and protect teeth that are likely to fracture. So, when a crown falls out or breaks when you are not expecting it, it can provide a lot of inconveniences. But don’t worry, it isn’t the end of the world. Once it falls out, if the crown is still intact then you may still be able to put it back over the tooth temporarily. Just make sure the inside of the crown is clean and apply some dental adhesive over it, which you can buy from pharmacies. If you have lost the crown or it becomes damaged then this leaves the tooth tissue exposed. Therefore, you can either apply a bit of clove oil with a cotton swab if it feels sensitive or some dental cement directly on to the tooth’s surface. In any case, book yourself in to see your dentist as soon as possible so that it can be fixed. A crown that has fallen out or is lost can cause a lot of pain and have a negative psychological effect as well. If you have the crown, your dentist may be able to fit it back, provided he or she is satisfied that it isn’t damaged or infected. If the crown has been lost or damaged then your dentist will simply fit a temporary crown and call you back in for the permanent fixture.

Q. Is chewing tobacco better for your health than smoking cigarettes? A. Although it may seem like the better option, smokeless tobacco is just as harmful to your oral health as smoking cigarettes. This is because they both contain a wide variety of toxins that have been linked to causing cancer. It’s not really the most enjoyable of conversations I have with my patients, but quitting any tobacco will have a significantly positive impact on your oral health and reduce the risk of getting oral cancer. Chewing tobacco — also known as chew or snuff — can cause severe irritation to the tissue along your gums as it sits right along the gum line. Some chewing tobacco products contain sugars so that they improve the flavour, and while that may help your mouth to produce more saliva, it increases the risk of tooth decay. Some of the effects that smokeless tobacco can have on your oral health are bad breath and yellow teeth. It can also weaken your sense of taste and cause red sores and patches inside your mouth that can turn into cancer and also increases your risk of gum disease. Chewing tobacco and smoking are the biggest causes of different types of oral cancer, affecting your esophagus, throat, tongue, larynx and salivary glands. These are caused by the different types of poisonous toxins and harmful carcinogens. The best way you can prevent risks of getting oral cancer is to stop smoking and chewing tobacco altogether. It may seem hard at first, but it is worth speaking to your dentist or doctor about it. * For more information about dental issues, contact Synergy Dental Clinics Bolton or Bury, email bury@synergydental. org. uk or go to https://synergydental. org. uk/synergy-dental/dentist-in-bury/

Q. How often should I really brush my teeth? A. The earlier you begin getting into the habit of maintaining the welfare of your teeth, the more beneficial it will be for you in the long-term. Most of us want to look good when we smile, and it’s important that all aspects of our oral hygiene are of a high standard. According to a study conducted last year, 40per cent of the population didn’t brush their teeth even once a day. To put that into context, that’s approximately 24 million members of the public. The worst offenders among the results of that survey were those aged from 26 to 34, with only half of them brushing their teeth once a day. As many as 40 precents admitted that they felt too embarrassed to show their teeth in a photograph, and nearly a quarter of them admitted that they were ashamed of their teeth. It doesn’t matter how old you are, your teeth are an important part of your facial make-up and especially today, with the number of photos people are uploading onto social media, looking after your teeth couldn’t be more important. The advice I give to all of my patients is to brush their teeth at least twice a day, as well as aiming to brush their teeth after each meal to stop any damage to your tooth enamel. If you want to take that a step further, then I recommend flossing and it’s important to use a toothpaste with the right concentration of fluoride so that you can keep your teeth and gums in the best possible state. Q. Which alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks are best to stay cool during summer? A. Who loves nothing more than a cold cocktail or two on a hot summer day? Your body loses essential fluids and your blood sugar starts to drop, so it can be easy to get carried away and buy the wrong drinks to quench your thirst and damage your teeth. Whether you’re enjoying a day out at the park, or an afternoon with friends in a beer garden, there are plenty of ways you can reduce the number of sugars you consume, or cut them out altogether. According to studies, some of the more popular alcoholic drinks that people like are cocktails of spirits like gin, vodka and rum, which have no sugar in them, mixed with sugar-heavy juices or soft drinks such as cranberry juice, lemonade or Coke – each glass can contain up to 60per cent of your daily intake. Instead, opting for a beer, a glass of red wine or prosecco could be a better option for you, as they all contain less than three per cent of your daily sugar intake. If you don’t drink alcohol, the usual option for people is an energy drink or a glass of Coke or lemonade – but there’s also high levels of sugar in these, too. Better alternatives are either sparkling or still water, with fresh wedges of lemon or lime or a few mint leaves. If you’re just out and about, try to avoid isotonic sports drinks and opt instead for either bottled mineral water or coconut water – which are packed full of electrolytes and minerals and are sugar-free.

Dr Richard Ho from Synergy Dental Clinics helps with advice on dental problems Q. What is preventative dentistry and how will it benefit my dental health? A. Preventative dentistry is simply a modern way of making sure that you have a healthy mouth. The aim is to help you keep your teeth in the best shape and condition so that you do not need to have much dental treatment. The highest contributing factors to tooth loss are tooth decay and gum disease. That’s why, if you make more of an effort to deal with those issues, your chances of keeping your teeth for life will increase significantly. As long as you have a full or partial set of teeth, your dentist will always try to help you ensure that they stay in the best of conditions. Even with people who have no teeth, there is still some benefit, as certain conditions such as mouth cancer or denture stomatitis can be spotted. That is why it is important for patients to work with their dentist because it can help to prevent the need for extensive treatment such as fillings and extractions. Sometimes, your dentist may advise you to undergo a course of treatment to help ensure your mouth is in good condition – then work on a plan to help you keep on top of it. There are many preventative measures that you can also take in your day-to-day life – by cutting down the number of acidic foods and drinks you consume to avoid erosion of your teeth...

Q. I have heard gum disease can lead to other health problems. Is this true? According to a number of research and studies, gum disease can be dangerous to more than just your teeth. Sticky bacterial plaque that builds up on your teeth and bleeding, inflamed gums have been linked to a host of other health problems. Although the causes have not been established, there are links between gum disease and diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, heart disease and Alzheimer’s. It can’t be said for certain what the link is, but scientific research suggests that bacteria can get into the bloodstream and affect the major organs. Inflammation is likely a common factor because gum disease due to inflammation can increase inflammation throughout your body. If you are diabetic, you are more likely to have gum disease than people who don’t have diabetes. Inflammation may play a part because people with diabetes are more likely to get gum disease and other infections. Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease caused by inflammation and joint pain. People who suffer from this illness are also more likely to have gum disease than those who do not. Certain studies have found that they had more missing teeth, too. A study conducted by the King’s College London and the University of Southampton discovered that gum disease sufferers were 70 per cent more likely to develop Alzheimer’s. They also found it was linked with making dementia worse as well as increasing the decline of people suffering from Alzheimer’s. The good news is that gum disease can be avoided.

Q. How healthy are ‘healthy’ food products such as juices and smoothies? A. Fruit juices and smoothies that are often labelled as ‘healthy’ may not be healthy after all, due to the amount of sugar some of them contain. It’s always a challenge to educate people on how much sugars are hidden in food and drink that are labelled ‘healthy’ – often, they contain high levels of sugar within them. Many people are unaware of this, due to the fact that they are endorsed by famous health professionals and celebrities. Some patients are often surprised when they continually have problems with tooth decay, even though they seem to be following the advice given by their dentists – of brushing twice a day and using the correct toothpaste. There’s high chance this can be because of hidden sugars within their diets, especially in these apparently ‘healthy’ drinks and snacks. As dentists, it’s important for us to provide useful information to our patients, to highlight the dangers that hidden sugars can pose for their oral health as well as their overall health. Sugar causes your teeth to decay because it reacts with bacteria that is present on them, creating acid which attached to the tooth surface. When your teeth start to decay, it’s important to visit the dentist for an assessment which can either lead to the decaying teeth needing to be filled in or taken out altogether. Regularly consuming high levels of sugar can have detrimental effects on your oral and general health. Especially, if it’s being done with the intention of pursuing a healthier lifestyle. Q. What foods can I eat to keep my teeth and gums healthy? A. It might not be the first thing that comes to mind but the difference between having healthy gums and a picture-perfect smile could be your diet. Even if your dental hygiene is of a high standard, not watching what you eat can make it difficult to keep your teeth healthy and up to a good standard. Our teeth are important. That’s why the majority of us like to take such good care of them by brushing them thoroughly twice a day, flossing and using mouthwash. Even though we like to take such good care of our mouths, tooth decay and gum disease seem to be some of the most common diseases affecting many of us. It’s often quite easy to overlook the fact that what foods we eat are important to how good our overall oral health can be. But it doesn’t have to be that way, as there are many types of foods out there that you may not be aware of that not only cause minimal damage to your teeth but can provide a huge improvement to your oral health. Therefore, eating foods that are rich in calcium, vitamin D and vitamin C can help to keep your teeth and gums healthy. Better still, these foods can be found quite easily in the supermarkets. Food items like yoghurt, cheese and low-fat milk are rich in calcium. Fruit and vegetables such as oranges, kiwi, strawberries, broccoli and kale are very good sources of vitamin C whilst fish, cod liver oil and egg yolk are great sources of vitamin D.

Dr Richard Ho from Synergy Dental Clinics helps with advice on dental problems Q. Me and my partner suffer from chronic morning breath. Is it a sign of something worse? A. The infamous ‘morning breath’ can be a real problem for some people but it is nothing worse than plain old bad breath – otherwise known as halitosis. If you think that you are the only one who suffers from morning breath, rest assured that we all suffer from it in some capacity although some of us won’t suffer as badly as others. The biggest trigger of morning breath is dry mouth which is caused as a result of your mouth lacking in saliva – this is completely normal as your mouth naturally dries when you sleep at night – making it a feeding ground for bacteria. There are numerous other reasons for having bad breath in general – poor oral hygiene, infections in your mouth, smoking, chewing tobacco and in some cases, mouth cancer. If you are worried then speak with your dentist or GP. Therefore, it is important to ensure that your oral hygiene routine is robust and consists of brushing first thing in the morning and before you go to sleep at night as well as ensuring your mouth is fresh throughout the day, either by chewing sugarfree gum or using mouthwash whenever you feel your breath is starting to smell. Before you go to sleep at night, try to avoid eating foods like garlic or onions as well as drinking coffee.

Q. I feel very nervous when it’s time to visit my dentist. Can you help? According to NHS statistics, about 25 per cent of us don’t like going to the dentist — it is one of the most common phobias people face. If you are worried that the dentists won’t understand your fears, let me assure that they will. We have seen and heard it all before. Dentists nowadays are a lot more sympathetic about these feelings and are able to offer ways to help you when you have an appointment. One of the methods of relaxing that may be offered to you is through an intravenous sedation (IV). This is given through an injection on your arm or on the back of your hand. Dosage amounts depend on the treatment that is required and how long it takes to complete. With IV sedation you feel drowsy and become oblivious of any treatment you are having but are still able to communicate. IV sedative usually takes quite a while to wear off — your dentist will be able to advise how long it will actually take. After the treatment, it can up to 24 hours for it to clear from your body. If you are scared of needles then your dentist may be able to offer you inhalation sedation — which is the good old gas and air. This is great for helping you to feel relaxed and ease any anxieties. Don’t be afraid to speak with your dentist about sedation options. * For more information about dental issues, contact Synergy Dental Clinics Bolton or Bury, email bury@synergydental. org. uk or go to Synergy Dentist in Bury

Dr Richard Ho from Synergy Dental Clinics helps with advice on dental problems Q. I’ve noticed red and white patches on my tongue that are quite painful. What could it be? A. When the tongue starts to develop smooth, red patches with white lines next to them, this is called ‘geographic tongue’ because it resembles a map. This is quite a common mouth condition that is not infectious and can never become cancerous. It can affect any age group and run in families but is not seen as being a contagious condition. It comes about when the old surface of the tongue starts to replace itself, the top layer does not always come away evenly and therefore leaves a red, sore patch on the tongue. The patches where the skin stays on longer looks white in comparison. Sometimes it is possible for the red patches to become infected with thrush because they are thin and vulnerable, causing them to feel sore. There is nothing that can make the condition worse. However, you may find that when you consume acidic or spicy food and drink that the red patches can become quite painful due to being thin and raw. It would be a good idea to keep a diary of all the foods you eat that make the condition feel sore or uncomfortable so that you can try to avoid consuming them too much.

Q. My wisdom teeth haven’t come through yet, is there something wrong? A. Wisdom teeth erupting tends to differ from person to person. Some people don’t even get their wisdom teeth at all, so it isn’t anything to be too worried about. The technical terms dentists use for wisdom teethare‘thirdmolars’. Humans on average have four wisdom teeth, one for each corner of their mouths, behind the last standing teeth. In some cases, people may never get their wisdom teeth to come through. The term wisdom teeth are given because of the time they erupt, which is between the ages of 17 to 25. That’s because it’s the age that young people start the following wisdom–through higher education or entering the world of work. As already mentioned, some people don’t have wisdom teeth come through. According to studies nearly 35% of people don’t have wisdom teeth and there are a few reasons why people may be missing them. The first reason, plainly and simply, is that your wisdom teeth have already been removed. If they are impacted, it means that they are there but haven’t come through yet. Sometimes, wisdom teeth may never come through if there isn’t enough room for them to come out. At times, not having wisdom teeth canals be related to your genetic make-up. Some studies have found that human evolution may also have an impact, due to the way the human brain has grown over time, meaning that there’s no longer enough space in the head to fit a larger brain as well as the third molars. This is due to the fact we don’t use our third molars to chew food, only our first and second molars. Which means some people are born without wisdom teeth. If you are one of these people lacking wisdom teeth then it’s nothing for you to be too worried about. In fact, it’s quite common to find that people are missing wisdom teeth. It may even be adhered it a trait, going back to your parents and grandparents – who may have had missing wisdom teeth. In fact, it’s probably a good thing that you’ve not got wisdom teeth. They don’t affect your ability to chew foods and you’re not as likely to have problems in the future. On the other hand, someone who has impacted wisdom teeth can be at risk of a lot more pain. With impacted wisdom teeth, it either means that there is not enough space for them to grow, or that they erupt and a different angle, due to the lack of space. Because of this poor positioning, a lot of pain can be caused, as well as infections. Even if the wisdom teeth come out normally, there’s still potential for it to cause problems as they are hard to clean and can become decayed. The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE)advises that wisdom teeth should only be removed if there is a good reason to do so. If the wisdom teeth have untreatable damage to nerves, unrepairable tooth decay, abscesses, infections or pain due to impacted teeth.

Q. What is tooth enamel? Can it be restored if it gets damaged? A. Basically, tooth enamel is the natural outer covering of the crown of a tooth–which is the hardest natural substance in the human body. It is what you see when you see your smile or when someone else smiles at you and is composed of minerals and while it’s quite strong it’s also relatively thin, too–with 1. 5mm being its thickest dimension. The large majority of a natural tooth is composed of dentin, but the enamel is what you see above the gums when you smile. Contrary to what the general population thinks, tooth enamel isn’t solid white but in fact, it’s actually see-through–whichallows the light to pass through it. The combination of the natural colour of the dentin under the enamel, coupled with the translucent composition of the enamel is what gives teeth their light appearance. In actual fact, most teeth are the colour of ivory as opposed to being completely white. Tooth enamel is extremely crucial towards ensuring that your teeth don’t decay–therefore it’s important to do everything possible to prevent your tooth enamel from eroding. It creates a strong barrier that protects the inner layers of your teeth from the harmful effects of acids and plaque–it also protects the sensitive inner layers of your teeth from foods and drinks that are hot or cold. If in the instance that the tooth enamel is destroyed slightly or even completely it cannot be repaired or replaced. This is because of the fact that unlike other parts of the body, tooth enamel does not contain any living cells–therefore it cannot be regenerated, like your bones, for example. The main cause of loss of tooth enamel is acid– it likes to eat away at the enamel, which erodes it over time. This can leave the tooth extremely exposed and vulnerable when it is lacking its main source of protection. Acid is produced in your mouth in a number of ways, with the most common sources coming from the food that we eat. But it isn’t limited to just that either –other reasons why acid is produced in your mouth are; dry mouth, teeth grinding, gastrointestinal tract issues, acidic medicines, low production of saliva and even your genetic make-up. Over recent years, dentists have found that tooth erosion–as a result of acid production in your mouth–can be caused by environmental factors, too. For example, if your mouth produces friction, you are under a lot of stress, or if your teeth are just worn, the acid production in your mouth could increase. How vigorously or frequently you brush your teeth also contributes towards the loss of enamel – if you brush too often or a bit too hard then your teeth will become weaker and more sensitive. Therefore while tooth enamel cannot be restored, it can be protected. Foods, drinks, and fruits that contain a lot of acids are the most damaging to your tooth enamel because when they stick to your teeth and mix with bacteria in your mouth, the lactic acid they produce can damage your enamel–so you should try and avoid these foods as much as you can and if you do eat them, make sure you brush afterward.

Q. How can I get my teeth looking whiter when I go on holiday? A. Most people tend not to pay too much attention to the colour of their teeth because they assume that by brushing regularly and having a robust dental hygiene regime in place, their teeth will naturally be white. This isn’t always the case as there are several reasons why your teeth may not be perfectly white–the same way we have different colour hair and skin tones, this also applies to our teeth. Our teeth can also become stained from food and certain drinks such as tea, coffee, red wine, and dark fruits. The two most common types of whitening are laser whitening and professional bleaching. If you’re looking for instant results, then I recommend speaking your dentist about laser whitening treatments. The procedure can take as little as 30 minutes–they’ll place a rubber shield over your teeth to protect your gums and paint your teeth with a special bleach. After this, they’ll shine a laser on your teeth to activate the peroxide gel that’s in the bleach, which enters your teeth and lightens them from the inside out. Professional bleaching takes slightly longer and involves using a gum shield, specifically molded for your teeth and applying a whitening product for up to one hour at a time. Your dentist may do the first treatment, leaving you to continue the rest at home. After you’ve completed your treatment, always try to ensure that you are brushing your teeth at least twice a day and reduce the number of sugary foods and drinks you consume. Q. Do you have any tips on how I can treat sensitive teeth? A. Having sensitive teeth can mean a number of things and can range from mild discomfort which lasts a few minutes to severe discomfort which can last for a few hours. It’s usually caused when the softer dentine, which is protected by the enamel our teeth, becomes exposed. This can be caused by a number of reasons– the most common one being regular exposure to cold drinks or foods, and sometimes, hot foods and drinks can also make your teeth feel sensitive. Other causes of sensitive teeth include dental erosion, which is caused by the loss of tooth enamel from eating or drinking too many acidic foods and drinks, as well as a build up of tartar and plaque around the gums area which can cause the gums to become weak, and even damage the bony support of the tooth. If you’re suffering from sensitive teeth regularly, it’s best to go and speak with your dentist. They will look at your teeth, give you a definitive diagnosis as to what is causing the sensitivity and be able to treat it accordingly. They may apply fluoride gel or a special varnish over the course of multiple appointments to try and build up protection–a sit can take more than one appointment for sensitive teeth to settle. If the sensitivity isn’t too severe then your dentist may recommend a toothpaste with a higher concentration of fluoride and advise you to rub it on the affected areas for a few weeks.

Root canal treatment is a procedure used to treat tooth when bacteria infect the nerve and blood vessels inside a tooth–which is also known as the pulp. The pulp can become infected following decay in a tooth extending past the enamel and the dentine, into the pulp chamber in the center of a tooth. This can be from a tooth which has been left untreated for too long or can happen underneath an old filling or crown. If a tooth suffers severe trauma and fractures this can cause an entry point for bacteria and the pulp can get infected even without decay. When the pulp gets infected the main symptoms can be tenderness and pain upon biting as well as extreme sensitivity to hot or cold. Antibiotics have a limited capability to treat infections in the pulp chamber leaving two treatment options. Extract the infected tooth or attempt to save it by completing root canal treatment. During root canal treatment the pathways that the nerve and blood vessels extend into the teeth, need to be cleaned and sealed –to reduce the number of bacteria in the tooth to give your body a chance to heal the infection. Teeth can have one or multiple root canals depending on the teeth that require the treatment. The chewing teeth towards the back of your mouth, also known as premolars and back molar teeth usually have multiple roots and each root has one or two root canals. While the teeth towards the front of your mouth– the front incisor and canine teeth–normally have a single root containing one root canal. So, if you have the root canal treatment on the teeth at the back of your mouth, your treatment may take more than one session to be completed, whereas treatment on the teeth at the front are usually completed in one session. In any instances where your root canal treatment takes longer than one session, the dentist carrying out the procedure will apply some medication in the canal that has been cleaned and then seals the tooth with a temporary filling. For the majority of cases, the tissue near the tooth that has become inflamed will heal naturally. A local anesthetic will be given to you in order to minimise the pain, however, you may feel some discomfort similar to that having a filling. A potential side effect of completing the treatment is weakening the tooth as the canal needs to be enlarged to allow adequate cleaning so these teeth often have crowns placed to give the tooth more strength and to give a better seal on the top of the tooth. Root canal treatment has been reported by most studies to have a success rate of 80-90 percent and should last for up to 10 years after the treatment has been completed, provided you take the right amount of care that is required. I can’t stress how important it is to take proper care of your teeth when you’re recovering from root canal treatment. You should try to avoid eating hard foods until the full treatment is complete. Normally, after restoration, your teeth will feel slightly sensitive but there shouldn’t be any pain. You can get painkillers like paracetamol or ibuprofen to help overcome the pain. If you are still feeling pain or notice any swelling then I’d recommend paying a visit to your dentist for a checkup.

Q. Would using e-cigarettes affect my oral health? A. E-cigarettes seem like a fantastic alternative to regular cigarettes – zero tobacco, no known harmful chemicals and they don’t produce smoke smell, fire or ash. An e-cigarette is battery-powered and works by producing an aerosol that you “vape”. E-cigarettes contain nicotine from the tobacco plant – this can cause gum recession and other oral health problems. Nicotine contributes to the development of gingivitis and periodontitis, which can cause bad breath, grinding and inflammation. Nicotine is a vasoconstrictor, meaning it reduces the amount of blood that can flow through your veins. Without sufficient blood-flow, the gums do not get the oxygen and nutrients they need to stay healthy. Long-term chewing of nicotine gum can also cause similar problems. Visit your dentist every three months to monitor your tooth-pocket readings. The chance of gum disease is greater if you’re using nicotine. Regular visits can help prevent tooth loss, bone loss and gum recession. The best and most convenient option here is to eliminate the nicotine habit. The reality is that many consumers feel a false sense of security in e-cigarettes because they claim to have no harmful effects. The idea that these products will pose no threat is, in actual fact, not 100 per cent proven. It should dawn on most people that anything that is not a natural part of living (such as sucking on a cigarette or e-cigarette) is not going to be healthy and perhaps now is the time to be free of that addiction once and for all!

Q. How can I make my smile ready for the next wedding season? A. September is behind us and so the peak of the wedding season for this year. Planning in advance for the next one, however, is a good idea as a bright, confident smile lights up any wedding picture and makes your face look younger and more attractive. The impact this makes on your overall look and perception by others cannot be overestimated. Neglected teeth can add years to your age, making some people hesitate to smile or even avoid group photographs. Your dentist can fix the vast majority of your smile problems, but some procedures take more time than others. The easiest thing is for your dentist to give your teeth a good clean — ideally with the dental sandblaster — replace old, discolored and black fillings and subsequently whiten them all. If your teeth are heavily discolored or have cracks, then veneers or crowns could be necessary to give the desired outcome. While missing teeth can be replaced with removable dentures or fixed bridges, the closest thing to a natural tooth is an implant. And, although implant treatment can give some spectacular results, it takes a few months to plan and perform. Crowded, overlapping front teeth or spaces between them can be nicely aligned with one of the short-term orthodontic procedures. Overall, however, it can take up to nine months from consultation to the appointment to remove appliances so it’s worth acting now. So if you don’t give your smile 10 out of 10, see your dentist and ask what can be done to improve it.

The very best of the Fylde coast's medical professionals were celebrated at The Gazette's Best of Health Awards. Doctors, nurses, carers, dentists, midwives, pharmacists and childcare practitioners were among those rewarded after being nominated for excellence, for going above and beyond their normal duties to look after others. Hosted by Radio Wave's Ged Mills and Hayley Kay, the event at the Imperial Hotel saw awards handed out before a dinner and entertainment. Alison Farron, regional manager for headline sponsor Barches-ter, said: "We're here to celebrate some amazing people who've been nominated because they ensure the people of the Fylde coast get excellent care. Those nominated have proven they've exceeded customer expectations on the level of care they give. "At Barchester we're committed to providing high-quality services and we are very proud to be associated with the Best of Health awards. Winner of the midwife category, Francesca Hall, was nominated for helping a lady through a lengthy labour, long after her shift had finished. The winner paid tribute to 'every one of my colleagues on the unit' and added: "I'd really like to thank my family for getting me to where I am today. " Dentist Zuber Bagasi of Synergy Dental took the award for the first time, and said: "Thank-you to my amazing team for making this happen. It definitely wouldn't have been possible without you. " Doctor of the Year winner Dr Susnerwala said: "Thank you to all my patients over the years. I'm part of a big team of nurses and doctors and administrative staff who work behind the scenes. "I'm not the only one - it's a big team so thanks to all of them. " He paid tribute to secretaries who had worked with him since he started at the Vic and added: ''I'd also like to thank my family for supporting me over all the years. " Peter Mowbray was named Unsung Hero. The off-duty medic used the torch on his mobile phone to help save a security guard's life after he was attacked with a bottle. Dad-of-five Darren Fisher, 41, was smashed over the head outside Sainsbury's in Talbot Road, leaving him with a suspected bleed on the brain. Peter, who works in theatre at Blackpool Victoria Hospital, rushed to his aid and realised the guard's left eye was 'blown' - which indicates he had a serious head injury - so made him sit up to reduce the pressure on his brain to prevent brain damage or even death. He then used the torch light on his mobile phone to shine into Mr Fisher's eyes to make sure he wasn't deteriorating as they waited for an ambulance. The story made the front page of The Gazette. Accepting the award, emotional Peter said: "I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for Darren who I'm glad to say is doing pretty well. Thank-you to my friends and family - and to you all. " Darren, who was in hospital for three days but is now making a good recovery, said: "It's an amazing thing that Peter has done. I'm forever in his debt. " Peter said: 'I'm immensely proud that it all came together in the end. " The Gazette's Best of Health Award winners 2016 Nurse of the Year Award, sponsored by Spire Fylde Coast Hospital Winner: Francesca Hall, Blackpool Victoria Hospital Shortlisted Nominees: Heidi Williams, Marton Medical Practice; Joanne Holt, Gateway Mental Health Services; Amanda Fewtrell, Whitegate Drive Walk-In Centre Carer of the Year Award sponsored by UCLAN Winner: Liam Quinn, Blackpool Carer's Centre Shortlisted nominees: Gary Feeney, Langdales Care Home; Star Bickerstaffe, Joanne Fletcher, Daniel Wilkilson Midwife of the Year Award sponsored by The Gazette Outright Winner: Chantelle McGovem Pharmacist of the Year Award sponsored by Barchester Healthcare Winner: Jabir Bala, Rhodes Pharmacy Shortlisted Nominees: Lytham Road Pharmacy Elderly Welfare Award sponsored by Whitworth Chemists Winner: Susan Forbes, Glenroyd Care Home Shortlisted Nominees: Mandy Banks, Blackpool Victoria Hospital; June Riches, Langdales Care Home; Deena Whittingham, Langdales Care Home Childcare of the Year Award sponsored by Spiral Health Winner: Sally Manning and Kim Barry, Grunty's Day Care Nursery Shortlisted Nominees: Jane McNair, Busy Bees Therapist of the Year Award Winner: Sam Wall, Spire Fylde Coast Hospital Shortlisted Nominees: Richard Baron, Spiral Healthcare Dentist of the Year Award sponsored by Barchester Healthcare Winner: Zuber Bagasi, Synergy Dental Shortlisted Nominees: Howard Hunter, Ivory Dental Care; Sharon Caro, St Annas Dental Practice Doctor of the Year Award sponsored by Synergy Dental Clinic Winner: Dr Susnerwala, Blackpool Victoria Hospital Shortlisted Nominees: Dr Billington, Marton Medical Practice; Dr Rahman, Beechwood Surgery; Dr Au, Queensway Medical Centre Unsung Hero Award sponsored by FCMS and PDS Medical Winner: Peter Mowbray Shortlisted nominees: Lynn Hardman; Mags Hanning and Charlie; Kate Stashkiw The Gazette Special Recognition Award Winner: The Palliative and End of life Team, Blackpool Victoria Hospital

Boss of Synergy Dental Clinics wins award after opening his seventh dental practice A top regional health award has been awarded to a Bolton dentist for the third time. Dr Zuber Bagasi, clinical director of the Synergy Dental Clinics' group, has again scooped the Dentist of the Year title in the Best of Health Awards in Blackpool. These awards are based on votes from patients and Dr Bagasi won after scores of patients nominated him for the title, praising his skills, professionalism and excellent manner. The busy Blackpool Synergy Clinic is in Central Drive. It is another 2016 milestone for Dr Bagasi, who lives in Lostock, as he opened his seventh dental practice earlier in the year in Preston. He added this to two Synergy practices in Bolton - in Blackburn Road and in Higher Swan Lane - one in Bury (in Tenterden Street) and other practices in Ormskirk and Birmingham. He is no stranger to awards. Apart from the Best of Health Awards, Dr Bagasi and his clinics have been shortlisted in the British Dental Association's regional awards several times. He has also won the Highly Commended award in the Bolton and Bury Business Awards. "I am particularly pleased about winning the Best of Health Award because it was something that came from the appreciation of our patients," said Dr Bagasi. ''All our teams try very hard to ensure that our patients receive the very best of care, employing the best possible, latest dental techniques. "

DENTAL DILEMMAS. Dr Paul Sobocinski from Synergy Dental Clinics helps with advice on dental problems. Q. Are braces just for children or can adults have them? A. Braces are no longer just an option for children or teenagers but can be useful at any age. Natural growth and overall health can have an effect on teeth, causing them to move, and many people experience crooked or overcrowded teeth during adulthood. So, for health and cosmetic reasons, the number of adults seeking braces is on the rise. Even celebrities are sporting braces like a new fashion statement. If you have crooked teeth and didn’t have braces as a child, the good news is that it’ s never too late to fix misaligned teeth and improve your smile. You may even be suffering from jaw pain, and braces are the obvious answer to correct your bite. If you are considering dental implants, your teeth need to be straight before treatment begins, so, again, braces may be a necessity. Misaligned teeth can trigger other dental problems like periodontal disease or gum disease; this can occur when food gets trapped between overcrowded teeth and plaque builds up. Overcrowded teeth may also encourage headaches or earaches, and an inadequate bite may lead to gastrointestinal problems if food isn’t chewed properly. Braces have come a long way since their invention. They are more comfortable than their metal predecessors and require less time to fit. Modern braces are also barely noticeable. It’ s worth remembering that the straightening effects of braces can be more remarkable in adult teeth due to the careful maintenance routine that adults tend to follow, giving beautiful healthy teeth to a ripe old age.

Q. Can water help with my dental health? A. Aside from the fact that water is incredibly beneficial to your dental health, recent studies have shown that drinking or even rinsing your mouth with water helps remove up to 60 percent of substances that are left behind and which contribute to bad breath. A glass of water in the morning will help to wash away some of the bacteria in your mouth, but it is definitely not a solution to getting rid of bad breath altogether. If leftover food particles between your teeth and tongue are neglected, they begin to rot and will release an unpleasant smell. To test for bad breath, simply lick the inside of your wrist, wait for it to dry and sniff–if the smell is bad, you can be fairly sure that your breath is, too! The best way to combat bad breath is to make sure you have an effective oral health routine that includes brushing your teeth with a fluoride toothpaste last thing at night and at one other time during the day and making sure you floss daily to get rid of food particles that are left behind in those hard-to-reach places your toothbrush can’t get to and to also scrape your tongue to get rid of bacteria left there. Water is an essential part of your diet and you can gain many oral health benefits from having a glass of water in the mornings. Most areas in the UK have fluoridated water which has been shown to help strengthen tooth enamel.

Q. What is the best way to get my teeth whitened? A. Having white teeth can add something valuable to your appearance. Other people react positively to a bright smile and as a result, your confidence grows. Teeth whitening techniques enhance that effect, but it’ s worth bearing in mind that only a few of them are worth your attention. Wine, tobacco and coffee cause surface stains which can usually be removed with a simple toothbrush and toothpaste. Unfortunately, the deeper layer under the hard enamel can also soak up these chemical agents, and those intrinsic stains are much harder to eradicate. The answer is peroxide bleaching agents, most commonly hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide, with the latter turning into the former almost immediately upon application. Once applied by a dentist, the hydrogen peroxide breaks up the chromogens into smaller molecules that aren’t as coloured, more diffuse. It’ s the quickest way of getting rid of those hard-to-remove stains even if you use products that contain hydrogen peroxide. The bleaching agent used by your dentist contains a higher concentration to improve its effect. Another alternative is laser whitening, which is a relatively short treatment — about 30 to 60 minutes — and very effective. The dentist applies gel to your teeth, directly on the enamel. That whitening agent is designed to react with the surface of the teeth, including its deepest layers. The activation happens with the help of a UV light. This is completely painless and easy to use and the results can last up to three years , depending on additional factors like lifestyle and oral hygiene.

Q. How do I floss correctly? A. You may be an expert in brushing your teeth correctly, but did you know that brushing alone only cleans about 60 per cent of your mouth? Small pieces of food and plaque can get stuck between the teeth and so interdental cleaning is needed to stop the build-up of plaque in order to avoid the bacteria from irritating and infecting your gums. Dental floss is designed to get into those hard to reach areas. However, some people can use them incorrectly and risk damaging their gums. You should cut about 45cm (18inches)of floss and hold the floss taut between your hands. Gently slide the floss between your teeth and floss up and down the sides. When you get to the gum-line, curve the floss into a C-shape against the tooth and gently scrape away from the gum– this will help clean the gumline without damaging it. Repeat this process between every single tooth, including the sides and back of the mouth, starting from one side to the next so that you don’t miss a single tooth. You might find that your gums bleed when you first begin flossing, but if you continue to floss regularly the bleeding should stop as your teeth and gums become healthier. If the bleeding continues after a few days, see your dentist and he or she will check if you are flossing correctly. If you find flossing difficult, some people use a floss holder or interdental brushes. Ask your dentist for advice on other ways of cleaning between your teeth effectively.

- Tags: disease, Gum, gum recession, periodontal, treatment, Dr. Paul Sobocinski, Ask the Expert
Q. HOW can I prevent gum disease? A. Gum disease occurs when the gums become swollen, sore or infected and can bleed when brushing your teeth. It affects more than half of all adults in the UK at least once in their lives and can vary in degrees of seriousness. There are two main types of gum disease: gingivitis and periodontal disease. Gingivitis is the inflammation of the gums where they can be red and swollen and can bleed when you brush your teeth. Periodontal disease is when the tissues supporting the teeth are affected. If this is left untreated, the disease will worsen the effects and could eventually lead to bone loss. This means that teeth are left unsupported and can become loose. Ultimately this will lead to teeth falling out. Gum disease is caused when there is a build-up of bacteria-ridden plaque on the teeth, formed from eating and drinking. If you don’t brush your teeth regularly or properly, you risk the build-up of plaque which will eventually start to irritate your gums. If yo u smoke, this can also make the situation worse – smoking restricts oxygen in the bloodstream and so the infected gums will not heal. By maintaining good oral hygiene you can help prevent gum disease. Brush your teeth twice a day and floss and attend regular dental check-ups so that your dentist or hygienist will be able to clean your teeth thoroughly and remove tartar. If the gum disease is severe, you might need to have further treatments and surgery may be needed to be carried out by a periodontics specialist.

DENTAL DILEMMAS. Dr Paul Sobocinski from Synergy Dental Clinics helps with advice on dental problems. Q. I am unhappy with the way my teeth look. What can I do? A. One way to improve teeth is to consider having veneers which are used to improve the shape, colour and general appearance of your teeth. They are usually made of very thin porcelain material which fits over the tooth surface. They can be made in a particular colour to improve the look of a discoloured tooth or several teeth. Also used to close smaller gaps where braces are unable to or can be fitted to change the appearance of a tooth’ s position. Preparing a veneer usually takes two visits. On the first, a very small amount of the outer enamel surface of a tooth is removed and your dentist will take an impression in order to make the veneer. The colour of your surrounding teeth is matched against a guide to ensure that the veneer will look as natural as possible. On the second visit, you will be shown the veneer and, if you are happy with it, the veneer is bonded permanently to your tooth by a strong adhesive. After it is fitted, the dentist is able to make very minor adjustments but it is recommended that you wait and get used to it first. Veneers can last many years but they can chip and break, just like natural teeth. You should ask your dentist how long each veneer will last and how you can look after them correctly. The cost of veneers can vary in different practices so it is worth consulting your dentist about options and prices before starting treatment.

Q. How can I help maintain my oral health routine? A. It is vitally important to brush your teeth twice a day for two minutes to stop the build-up of bacterial plaque. Almost a quarter of adults in the UK don’t brush twice a day, and studies show that missing a single session can start the process of cavities forming. It’s not just about brushing your teeth, but how you brush your teeth. One of the most common mistakes people make is skimming over areas of the mouth, especially when they’re in a rush–but this will leave plaque behind. Try not to brush too hard as you could damage gums. Use the right tools for the job. There is a range of different toothbrushes out there, but brushes with a small head are generally the best, as you can reach all areas of your mouth easily. The softer the bristles are, the better they are for your gums. We’ve all been there when it comes to not replacing your tooth brush when needed. Once the bristles start losing strength and form, it’s time for them to go! Try to buy multiple brushes, so you can be assured that you’ll always have a spare one. No brush will ever be able to get between the gaps in your teeth and requires the help of floss. Without flossing, you will allow the build-up of plaque along your gum line which could lead to gum disease. Lastly, visit your dentist regularly. Problems can be spotted and dealt with earlier and you will help keep your oral health in check for longer.

You will find that most dentists are happy to provide treatment to those with special needs as everyone should be able to have proper dental care regardless of their situation. Some people would need special care and facilities in order to have this care provided, however, and usually, your doctor or dentist will be able to refer you to a clinic best suited to an individual’s needs if they are unable to provide the adequate amount of care needed. Along with the referral letter, they will also send across any x-rays and hospital letters in order to give the treating dental team an idea of the patient’s dental history. Some dentists would also be able to perform home visits for those individuals with special needs who find it difficult getting to a surgery and some care facilities can provide sedation or general aesthetic. It is important for the dentist to be aware of any medication that the patient is taking and their medical history. The dentist may also ask for their doctor’s name and about any allergies or recent operations they have had – so make sure to make a note of all this information. It is also important to ask the dentist to provide sugar-free medication (if needed) as many patients with disabilities rely on medication to help keep their condition under control. The dentist should also be made aware of any anxieties the patient has so that they can make extra sure that they are doing everything possible to make them feel at ease.

Q. Does the HCV infection affect my oral health? A. There are an estimated 200,000 people in the UK who suffer from the Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) and there has been recent evidence that sufferers are twice as likely to develop mouth cancer. It is important for those sufferers to be extra vigilant in checking for any changes in their mouth. The more people are aware of the associated risks of the disease, the more cases that can be caught early and the more lives will be saved. Early diagnosis is the key. By looking out for major signs and symptoms, everyone can be certain they’re improving their chances. Look for unusual swellings or lumps in not only the mouth but in the head and neck area, too. Also look for any white or red patches, or ulcers in the mouth that don’t heal after three weeks. As well as the risk of mouth cancer, HCV can also be linked to other oral health issues such as tooth decay and gum disease. Saliva helps to fight bacteria in the mouth due to its antibacterial properties and without it there is an increased chance of infection entering the body.

A recent research study shows that regular consumption of sports drinks can be a serious risk to children’s dental health. Around 68% of 12 -14 years olds are found to have been unnecessarily consuming sports drinks that are high in sugar. Leading health charities such as the Oral Health Foundation has stated that there is an obvious lack of public awareness on the harmful effects of food and drink that claims to be “healthy” can have on oral health. A lot of sports drinks often contain hidden sugars, and so you should always be on the lookout for these and try to make healthier, alternative choices such as drinking water or milk. The consumption of sports drinks has become normal for children to have, which it should not be. These types of drinks are specially designed for sporting and fitness professionals in order to aid performance and have no nutritional value for children. Sports drinks should not be seen as any kind of alternative to soft drinks. Every year, 33,000 children on average need to have teeth removed and this is partly due to the lack of oral health education and lack of knowledge on these hidden sugars in the food and drink they are consuming which have been labelled as “healthy”. If you are unsure of food and drink choices for you and your children, speak to your dentist about different and healthier options that will be beneficial for teeth (and overall health). Through education, we can help provide and better and healthier future for children. Contact Synergy Bolton Clinic For a Consultation Have something that needs checking out?

In a recent study, oral piercings have found to be a very popular trend with 43% of people going for them. Out of these, the most popular was tongue and lip piercings, whilst only a small number of people opted for gum piercings. Whilst piercings are seen as a fashionable form of self-expression, not many people realise the kind of long or short-term damage they can have on their mouths. Oral piercings can be prone to chipping and cracking teeth when they come into contact, and some people might have a habit of playing with or biting their piercing – this can be very dangerous and can lead to extensive dental work. Your mouth is a hub of bacteria and is the perfect place for infections to begin, and what better way than with an open wound caused by a new piercing. Infections that are not treated can lead to blood poisoning. Unless does correctly, getting a piercing can cause permanent numbness of your tongue, blood loss, swelling, and in severe cases, the risk of HIV and Hepatitis B. If you are looking at getting an oral piercing, make sure to do your research and use a trustworthy provider in a clean and safe environment. If you do have a piercing, you should keep it as clean as possible by using an antiseptic mouthwash, avoid playing or fiddling with it, and if you play sports – make sure to remove it to avoid causing injury and damage through trauma. Visit your dentist regularly to make sure there are no underlying problems with your piercings.

Q. Can sports drinks be bad for children? A. Recent research study shows that regular consumption of sports drinks can be a serious risk to children’s dental health. Around 68 percent of 12 to 14-year-olds are found to have been unnecessarily consuming sports drinks that are high in sugar. Leading health charities such as the Oral Health Foundation have stated that there is an obvious lack of public awareness on the harmful effects of food and drink that claims to be “healthy” can have on oral health. A lot of sports drinks often contain hidden sugars and so you should always be on the lookout for these and try to make healthier, alternative choices such as drinking water or milk. The consumption of sports drinks has become normal for children to have, which it should not be. These types of drinks are specially designed for sporting and fitness professionals in order to aid performance and have no nutritional value for children. Sports drinks should not be seen as any kind of alternative to soft drinks. Every year, 33,000 children on average need to have teeth removed and this is partly due to the lack of oral health education and lack of knowledge on these hidden sugars in the food and drink they are consuming which have been labeled as “healthy. ”If you are unsure of food and drink choices for you and your children, speak to your dentist about different and healthier options that will be beneficial for teeth (and overall health). Through education, we can help provide a better and healthier future for children.

Cold sores are caused by the ‘Herpes Simplex’ virus and are painful fluid-filled blisters on the lips. Cold sores tend to dry up and form a yellowish crust and usually heals within 5 – 7 days. Cold sores often flare up when people become ill with a cold or the flu, but sometimes they can be brought on by ultraviolet and sunlight and some women find that cold sores develop around the time of their menstrual cycle. Cold sores are infections and can be passed onto someone else is in close contacts, such as kissing or sharing the same straw. When a cold sore is in the “blister” stage, it is important to avoid touching it (that means no squeezing, pinching or pricking! ) because the virus is at its most infectious. This means that the virus can also be passed on to someone else by touching hands and also to your own eyes. There are antiviral creams available from your pharmacist or from your doctor to help aid in easing the pain and helping the healing process along more quickly. If you find that your cold sore has not cleared up after around two weeks, or you are prone to lots of attacks, you should visit your GP. They may be able to prescribe you with antiviral medication to treat the sores and keep them at bay. Tell your dentist about your cold sore, as they may postpone any treatments in order to prevent further irritating the affected area and causing any cracks or bleeding during treatment.

- Tags: chewing, smokless, tabacco, tobacco, Dr. Ali Altaf, Ask the Expert
The short answer? Yes. There are two types of smokeless tobacco – chewing tobacco and snus. Both types are highly addictive and cause serious health problems due to releasing several chemicals and poisons such as carcinogens when used. Mouth cancer is among the most serious health risk that is linked with smokeless tobacco. You are four times more likely to get mouth cancer with continued use of having poisons released in your mouth. Research shows that people who chew smokeless tobacco containing areca nut have a bigger risk of developing cancer in the mouth, throat, stomach and pancreas. While smokeless tobacco can harm your dental health, your overall health is also at risk. Nicotine causes your body to produce more cholesterol, and as a result, you are more likely to develop conditions such as heart disease, strokes and respiratory disease. Smokeless tobacco is just as every bit as harmful as regular cigarettes, if not more as smokeless tobacco can contain twice as much nicotine than the average cigarette. A single can of chewing tobacco can release as much nicotine as 60 cigarettes into your body. It is absolutely vital that you visit your dentist on a regular basis if you are a smoker or use smokeless tobacco in order to keep your health in check. Because of this habit, your check-up will involve a full mouth examination to keep a lookout for any signs such as painless mouth ulcers, white or red patches in the mouth or unusual lumps or swellings.

Have you ever woken yourself up due to your snoring, or have you laid restlessly awake because of your partner’s relentless snoring? Snoring is an extremely common condition and affects around 1 in 4 people in England. When you sleep, your airways relax and narrow, affecting the air pressure in your airways. Snoring is the noise caused by the vibration of the soft palate and tissue in the mouth, throat or nose. Things that can increase the risk of snoring include: obesity, drinking alcohol, smoking, allergic rhinitis, certain sedatives and other medication such as types of anti-depressants. A permanent solution to stopping snoring is not always possible, but you can help your situation by maintaining and healthy diet and weight, sleeping on your side rather than your back, cutting down or quitting smoking, avoiding alcohol before bed, keeping your nasal passages as clear as possible – try antihistamine tablets or a nasal spray if an allergy is causing the blockage. You can also get commercial devices such as nasal strips which help open up your nostrils, throat sprays, or use a mandibular advancement device (MAD) which help reposition your jaw to ease your airflow. Visit your dentist to see if there could be any other reason for your snoring and to try out a mouth guard while you sleep. Visit your GP if your snoring is affecting your sleeping – this could be a sign of a more serious problem such as obstructive sleep apnea causing repeated blocking of the airways throughout the night.

Water is not only a necessity for life, it is also a necessity for your dental health. However, there are millions of people around the world who still don’t have access to clean drinking water or proper sanitation. The 22nd of March is World Water Day and is run by WaterAid, whose mission is to ‘transform the lives of the poorest and most marginalised people by improving access to safe water, sanitation and hygiene’. Due to not having safe drinking water, people put their lives at risk by using dirty water: to wash, cook and clean with. In Britain, we are lucky to have access to clean water and safe sanitation for our daily uses which include brushing your teeth twice a day, every day. Research shows that at least one in three adults has or is suffering from tooth decay, making it one of the most extensive health problems in the UK. You may have heard of fluoride, a naturally occurring mineral that is found in toothpaste and various foods. But did you know that it also occurs naturally in your drinking water, and in some regions, fluoride is even added to the water. But why is this? Fluoride is an important factor in your daily oral health routine whether you notice it or not, and helps prevent tooth decay, a common problem that happens when acids in your mouth dissolve the outer layers of your teeth. Water is precious. Remember to never leave your tap running whilst brushing your teeth, so as not to waste it!

There are many different types of filling material to choose from, based on their availability. Amalgam fillings are silver coloured and have been used in dentistry for around 150 years. They are long lasting and hard wearing for up to 20 years. Though there is mercury present in dental amalgam, because it is combined with other materials, it is not poisonous as its chemical nature is changed. Composite fillings are also quite strong, but not as strong as amalgam, but they benefit from being tooth coloured, and therefore hard to detect. Composite fillings are made from powdered glass quartz, silica or other ceramic particles and are added to a resin base. Glass ionomer and porcelain inlays also benefit from being tooth coloured. Glass ionomer fillings are quite weak and so are only used on baby teeth or non-biting surfaces – they can also release fluoride which can help prevent further decay to the tooth. With the rise of digital technology (called CADCAM), dentists can also design custom fitting porcelain inlays which are hard wearing and long lasting, however, these are quite an expensive option. There is also the option to have gold inlays and onlays, which is, you guessed it – gold coloured! Gold is the hardest wearing and long lasting of all the materials, but again is quite expensive. If you’re looking to get a filling, speak to your dentist and ask about the different types they offer and which one would be best for your individual situation before going ahead with the treatment.

As you get older, your skin will start to lose elasticity. This can result in the skin starting to wrinkle, generally around the neck and the mouth area in the face, which appears like it’s sinking in. A change in appearance is particularly worrying for some people, often resorting to expensive cosmetic surgeries. However, there are other, non-surgical solutions such as dermal fillers and Botox for facial aesthetic treatments that are increasingly becoming more popular as they are less invasive, less time-consuming and less expensive. Botox can be injected into the skin to reduce moderate to severe brow and frown lines between the eyes and will last around 4 – 6 months. Dermal fillers can be injected into lips and crow’s feet lines to give the skin a plumper, fuller look and will generally last around 6 – 12 months. The sinking appearance can also be caused by missing teeth – which means less support for lips. You can replace missing teeth with three options: Dentures: a removable appliance Bridge: the teeth on either side of a gap with support a crown and bridge the gap Dental Implants: an artificial root that looks and feel like real teeth. Many salons and clinics offer such treatments, but you would need to be in the best possible hands if you decide to go ahead with any treatments. Make sure to do plenty of research to make sure you will be treated in a safe and legal place by a qualified professional.

Q. When might I need a crown? A. A crown (or a ‘cap’) is an artificial restoration that is fitted over a prepared tooth making them stronger. Crowns are used to repair broken or weak teeth caused by things such as decay or large fillings. Crowns can also be used to protect a tooth after a root-filling, improving the appearance of a discoloured filling or helping to support a denture or bridge. Crowns are often made with a metal base with porcelain applied in layers around it. You can also get crowns made completely in porcelain, however, they are not as strong as bonded crowns. Modern techniques use all ceramic crowns and contain the strength of a bonded crown but the look of a porcelain crown. Other types can be made of glass or metal-alloys. It takes at least two visits for the treatment. To prepare a tooth for a crown, the dentist will remove a layer of the outer surface of the tooth which will be the same thickness as the crown. The dentist will then take an impression of the newly shaped tooth, the opposite jaw and possibly an impression of your bite. The impression will be given to a dental technician including information of which shade to use to create a crown. You will be given a temporary crown to use while you wait for yours to be created. Your new crown will be fitted and once you and your dentist are happy with it, they will fix it in place using a special dental adhesive or cement. This form a seal in order to hold the crown in place.

Q. What is the best toothpaste to use? A. There are different types of toothpaste available designed for different needs. From toothpaste for sensitive teeth to smokers; your dentist can recommend the best type of toothpaste for you. Most dentists will recommend using a fluoride toothpaste as it has been proven to reduce tooth decay by 40 percent. Your dentist may prescribe you a toothpaste with more fluoride if you have a high risk of tooth decay to offer a higher level of protection for you. If you are worried about staining on your teeth, you can look for whitening toothpaste. But bear in mind, whitening toothpaste will only help restore the natural and original shade of your teeth. If you smoke, you can ask your dentist to recommend a toothpaste that is designed for staining caused by smoking. If you suffer from sensitive teeth, there is toothpaste that can help combat the pain because they contain desensitizing agents. Try rubbing some of the toothpaste on the affected area and leave it on overnight to help ease the pain. If you prefer something natural, there is toothpaste that contains natural ingredients such as mineral salts and plant extracts. Some products are made without testing on animals, and some can be suitable for vegetarians and vegans. However, sometimes natural toothpaste does not contain fluoride. If you are looking for an all-rounder, you can opt for a Total Care toothpaste that contains different ingredients including anti-bacterial agents, ingredients that control plaque and prevent gum disease, fluoride to prevent decay as well as containing whitening and tartar-controlling ingredients.

Q. Are DIY braces dangerous? A. The internet can be a resourceful tool for those looking at DIY projects or every day “hacks”, but it can also be full of dangerous ideas such as medical procedure hacks. Recently, there have been a lot of videos circulating sites such as YouTube on DIY Braces with tips and tricks on teeth straightening at home using household items such as hair bands. To be absolutely clear, these methods are dangerous and should not be attempted because it will not provide you with the end result you are hoping for. These do-it-yourself hacks will end up causing you more harm than good and could lead to tooth loss, severe pain and infections. If one of the teeth you’re attempting to adjust has less bone around the root, it may move at a faster rate than the other tooth and could cause misalignment or even cause more gaps between other teeth. Rubber bands can also have the tendency to slip under the gum, causing inflammation and infection – thereby affecting the overall health of your teeth. You should only see a trained dental professional, such as an orthodontist, who goes through years of special training in order to correctly fit braces, whilst taking into account how each individual tooth will move in order to provide a satisfactory (and safe) end result that you can be proud of. Speak to your dentist about the range of affordable orthodontic options that are available. Don’t risk permanent damage to your teeth in order to achieve the perfect smile.

Eating disorders such as bulimia nervosa, anorexia nervosa and binge eating disorder can affect your dental health as well as your general health. Common dental problems can include enamel erosion, xerostomia (dry mouth) and tooth decay. Individuals diagnosed with bulimia nervosa usually experience the most damage to their teeth due to frequent vomiting. Vomit contains highly erosive acid, which, when it comes into contact with teeth will cause the enamel to wear away. Individuals who suffer from anorexia nervosa receive a lack of nutrients and can suffer dental problems such as osteoporosis (a condition affecting the bones) which can cause bone loss in the jaw and lead to tooth loss. Those suffering from binge eating disorder can develop tooth decay due to the frequent bingeing on sugary food and drink. After vomiting, do not brush your teeth for about an hour as this will mean brushing the acid directly into the tooth surface and causing further damage. Instead rinse your mouth with water or a fluoride mouthwash to combat the effects of the acid wearing away your teeth. After bingeing on sugary food and drink, again try to rinse your mouth with water/fluoride mouthwash and try to wait at least an hour after eating to brush teeth. If you experience any pain or sensitivity, try using a toothpaste designed for sensitive teeth. It is important that you visit your GP if you are experiencing any signs of an eating disorder and to visit your dentist for advice on keeping your teeth as healthy as possible.

A dental abscess is a collection of pus that can form inside the teeth, in the gums, or in the bone that holds the teeth in place. It’s caused by a bacterial infection. It’s important to get help as soon as possible because abscesses don’t go away on their own. They can sometimes spread to other parts of the body and make you ill. Symptoms include: a throbbing pain in the affected tooth or gum that may come on suddenly and gets gradually worse, pain in your ear, jaw and neck, redness and swollen face, a tender, discoloured and/or loose tooth, shiny, red and swollen gums, sensitivity to hot or cold food and drink, bad breath and/or an unpleasant taste in your mouth If the infection spreads, you may also develop a high temperature (fever) and feel generally unwell. In severe cases, you may find it hard to fully open your mouth and have difficulty swallowing or breathing. Depending on the location of the abscess and how severe the infection is, possible treatments include: root canal treatment – a procedure to remove the abscess from the root of an affected tooth before filling and sealing it. Extraction of the affected tooth (this may be necessary if root canal treatment isn’t possible). Incision and drainage – where a small cut is made in the gum to drain the abscess. Dental abscesses are often painful, but aren’t always. Avoid going to your GP as there is not much they can do; instead, see your dentist as soon as possible for an assessment.

More than half of families in the UK own a pet. That’s 8. 5 million families and 58 million pets! This month is National Pet Month and the aim is to ‘make people aware of the mutual benefits of living with pets’ and ‘promote responsible pet ownership’. We may be a dentist for humans, but in the spirit of this month, we thought we would provide advice on how to keep your pet’s oral health in tip-top condition. Brush your pet’s teeth daily. Cats and dogs need to maintain strong and healthy teeth and gums; by not brushing daily, plaque will start to form in the mouth, affecting their teeth and even their breath! No one needs to smell their pet’s bad breath! Use a specially designed toothbrush and toothpaste that can be found in pet stores for your furry friend. You can also buy special dental oral liquid that you can add to their drinking water if they’re not a fan of having their teeth brushed. Provide your pet with chew toys, bones and crunchy treats. These are designed to strengthen your pet’s gums and teeth by getting the saliva flowing, and the chewing of these crunchy items will naturally clean and scrape away any food and soft plaque stuck in their teeth. But don’t take our word for it! Make sure to visit your local vet every 6 – 12 months to check up on your pet’s oral health and to ask for advice on how you can help keep their teeth in check.

The group believes its success has been down to ties in the community. When it comes to achievement the Synergy Dental group and its Bury practice has done much in its short history - and it is thanks to the Bury Times that the whole town gets to know about it. The Tenterden Street surgery opened in 2012 and has become part of an award-winning organisation which takes customer satisfaction very seriously. The successful Bury practice is part of the five-strong Synergy group which includes a surgery in Birmingham, one in Blackpool and two in Bolton - all started by Synergy's clinical director Dr Zuber Bagasi. Dr Bagasi won the Blackpool Dentist of the Year title after 100 patients nominated him in the regional Best of Health Awards. Last year he was highly commended in the Bolton and Bury Business Awards' Business Person of the Year category. Dr Bagasi has recruited many young, innovative and talented staff around him, including Dr Imran Chhadat who is head dentist at the Bury clinic. Dr Chhadat was nominated for Best Young Dentist at the Dentistry Awards in 2014. He believes there are several factors in Synergy's success. "I feel that it's extremely important to be involved with the community as much as possible, especially in a profession that requires you to see a lot of patients regularly for simple things like check- ups," explained Dr Chhadat. "But it's also important to create a good bond with our clients and build up that trust so that they feel confident to come to us with larger treatment issues. " All the awards, nominations, commendations and charity events that the Synergy Bury team has been involved in, however; might have gone largely unnoticed had it not been for the generous coverage of the Bury Times. Dr Bagasi said: "Local newspapers are vital to the success of any business, particularly when that business is starting out in order to be involved with the community with which it is working. We are honoured to be included as part of the 160th aimiversary of the Bury Times. I am so pleased that we have such great support from the BT in chronicling our success over the past couple of years, and I really believed that the range of articles about our business instills a sense of positivity and confidence in the local community. " Synergy recognises the importance of using all kinds of media today - including social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. "But," added Dr Bagasi, "we equaly see that there is still a vitally important place in today's market for print media and are happy to be involved with the BT in a new column called Dental Dilemmas to supplement its already excellent editorial. The Bury Times is a brilliant place for local businesses to be featured across the board, and we are glad to acknowledge both its place in the community and its importance in our town now and in the future.

“It’s about more than just putting in a filling or brightening teeth, it can really make a difference. ” One of the reasons Dr Zuber Bagasi won the Gazette’s Best Of Health Awards Dentist Of The Year title – for the second year running – was his passion for what he does. The dentist, of Synergy Dental, Blackpool, was nominated by scores of patients, who described him as kind, caring, professional and approachable. He was praised for mak-ing a difference to the lives of his patients by always taking time to put them at ease – in particular, with patients who had a fear of dental treatment. Dr Bagasi had also raised money for charity, heading a team of dentists on a fund-raising climb to Ben Nevis, in aid of Bridge2Aid – which provides dental treatment for people in Tanzania. He told The Gazette winning the award, twice, was a boost for the whole team. “It was a great achieve-ment for the team. It really meant a lot coming from the patients themselves. For me, dentistry is a passion. Not for every single patient, of course, but dental treatment can really make a difference to lives. Seeing patients after their treatment, when they feel better, have more confidence and are happier, is very rewarding. I really enjoy coming to work. And I couldn’t do it without the support of my wonderful team and of course, the patients. ” The Gazette's Best Of Health Awards are now in their fifth year – with 11 categories and a glittering ceremony set to take place at The Imperial Hotel in Blackpool, on September 10.

While many people believe that only a high sugar diet will eventually affect your teeth, your salt intake can actually play a big part in your dental health as well as your general health. Your recommended daily amount of salt is 6g, however, a lot of people end up consuming more due to the fact that lots of food these days have hidden salt content. Salt itself will not damage your teeth, however, there can be quite a high sodium content in carbohydrates, especially in processed foods which could have an underlying effect on teeth. Your teeth, just like your bones, are made up of a tissue that depends on calcium to help keep them strong and healthy. Studies have shown that having a sodium-rich diet can actually increase the amount of calcium your body loses through urine – this could lead to problems such as osteoporosis and eventual tooth loss. That’s not to say all salt is bad. Sea salt can be a natural antihistamine against asthma attacks and allergic reactions. Salt also has anti-inflammatory and healing properties, which is why many people prefer to make their own natural mouthwash. A salt mouthwash can be used to soothe and heal mouth sores and help with a sore throat suffering from tonsillitis. However, your salt mouthwash should not be used in place of your normal dental hygiene routine but as a supplement. Always consult your GP regarding your salt intake and speak to your dentist on how salt can be beneficial to your oral hygiene.

The 7th April marks World Health Day which is organised by the World Health Organisation, a section of the United Nations and is a global health awareness campaign that takes place every year. Each World Health Day has a specific theme which is unique to all previous World Health Day themes. This year’s theme is all about diabetes, a condition that causes the body to stop producing insulin and their blood sugar levels rise dangerously. Diabetes affects over 415 million people around the world, with 4 million of them in the UK, and 1 in 10 people are predicted to be affected by it by 2040. There are two types of diabetes – type 1 and type 2. Type 1 is an autoimmune disease and destroys insulin-producing cells. Type 2 arises when the body loses its ability to produce insulin – known as insulin resistance. Unlike type 1, type 2 diabetes is preventable. Diabetes can also affect your oral health. You are three times more likely to develop oral health problems if you are diabetic, compared to those without diabetes. The most common dental problems include gingivitis (gum inflammation), the infection and inflammation of bone and ligaments, tooth decay and fungal infections. In addition to this, people with diabetes often have a harder time tasting the food and can suffer from dry mouth syndrome. If you are suffering from diabetes, make sure to visit your dentist regularly as they will be spot any problems early on and will be able to deal with it quickly.

Dr Zuber Bagasi has grown his dental business from a single surgery in 2007 to six clinics dotted around the country. The Bolton-born clinical director of Synergy Dental Clinics has not only expanded his "empire" but also his reputation as an expert, specialising in dental implantation.

I DIDN'T get braces fitted when I was young. What are my options as an adult? -Mrs N, Kearsley We come across many patients who regret a past decision not to go ahead with braces, or were never given the opportunity. But, it's never too late. Traditional metal braces are still the best option, but they are very costly and not very appealing. Other options include short-term orthodontics with discreet short-term braces. The Inman Aligner, for example, is perfect for correcting the top and bottom front six teeth. It's a removable appliance which uses a push-and-pull mechanism to correct the alignment of teeth. Another method is the Six Months Smile, which straightens teeth in six months using tooth-coloured brackets and wires. It's not visible to the human eye until roughly 2ft away and, in most cases, can straigten teeth earlier than six months. This is a fixed option that is great for getting results without any interference from your lifestyle. Smilelign is a system of invisible, clear, removable aligners. It uses small changes to reach the goal of perfectly aligned teeth and that picture-perfect straight smile. It's easy to get started with this treatment and it all starts with a fitting to ensure that the system fits perfectly. Then the aligner will be changed by small increments once every two to four weeks. Dr Bagasi is an award-winning dentist with clinics in Bolton, Bury, Blackpool, Birmingham and Scotland.

Are your gums red, swollen or tender? Do they bleed when you brush your teeth? Have you ever woken up tasting blood or with blood on the pillow? All of the above are classic signs of gingivitis. Gingivitis is reversible inflammation caused by the accumulation of plaque and food debris around the gingival margin (where the gum and tooth meet). Plaque bacteria in our mouths feeds on sugar from the food that we eat and produce toxins which irritate the gums causing them to bleed. Gingivitis can cause bad breath and if left untreated can lead to periodontal disease which includes - gum recession, pocketing and eventually mobility of the teeth. Preventing gingivitis is easy if you follow a good oral hygiene routine. Brush two times daily, especially before bed with a toothpaste containing fluoride (1350ppm). Fluoride concentration can be found on the reverse of your toothpaste tube. Clean between the teeth with interdental aids such as floss or tepe brushes. The spaces between the teeth are perfect areas for plaque to stick. Have regular check ups with your dentist If plaque is not effectively removed, it can harden and become calculus (calcified plaque) which cannot be removed with brushing alone. If this is the case you should give synergy dental a call to arrange a professional clean and seek advice on an oral hygiene routine that will work for you. TOP TIPS SUMMARY • Effective brushing - Twice a day, two minutes each time. • Flossing - Once a day, dislodges trapped food and bacteria. • Brush the tongue - Clean that bacteria breeding ground. • Mouthwash and chewing gum - They will help but will not do the hard work for you. • Regular dental check-ups - Identify problems and help you maintain good oral health. • Keep hydrated - Plenty of water, and avoid sugary drinks. • Stop smoking - Bad breath, gum disease, oral cancer.

I'm touched someone has thought to nominate me. "I could not do my job without the support of such an excellent team and my family, who are fantastic. "I hope this helps to raise the profile of the eating disorder service and the issue of eating disorders, which can affect anybody of any age. " Highly commended were: Dr Russell Thorpe, of Old Links Surgery, St Annes; Dr AJ Nigam, consultant surgeon in ear, nose and throat at Blackpool Victoria Hospital; Dr Dahyu Mistey, of south Shore Primary Centre.

He also headed a team of dentists on a charity climb to Ben Nevis, which raised £3,000 for charity Bridge2Aid - providing dental treatment for people in Tanzania. One of the nominations from a patient said: "He always does a good job and makes me feel comfortable. He is always so professional, polite and approachable. " Another patient, who was nervous about dental treatment, said: "He takes time to explain everything and make you feel at ease. " Last year, he received more than 100 nominations from patients who told how he went the extra mile, and did all he could to make sure they were well looked after. Dr Bagasi said he was really pleased to receive the award for the second year. He was presented with his award by Elaine Purves, headteacher at Rossall School.

Expert calls in at schools to give vital advice Youngsters at two primary schools have been given special "lessons" in oral health. Children at The Olive Tree Primary School in St Helens Road, Bolton, and at the East Ward Community Primary in Bury were visited by a member of staff from Synergy Dental Clinics as part of World Oral Health Day. Hassan Mushaid, business development manager with the dental care group which has practices in the two towns, gave the children free toothbrushes and toothpastes. He also gave a presentation on both how to brush teeth properly over two minutes, and on the dangers to teeth of sugary drinks. The move was part of a campaign by dentists internationally to heighten awareness of good oral health. Dentist and Synergy clinical director, Dr Zuber Bagasi said: "Parents and children don't realise how long two minutes actually are so we wanted to demonstrate how long two minutes should be, and used a children's music video to brush along to which helped them. We provided the children with new toothbrushes and adult toothpaste to motivate them to brush their teeth. This is to wean them off the children's toothpaste they may be using as it doesn't contain enough fluoride for the North-West where we lack fluoridated water. " Dr Bagasi added that the presentation on sugar was to show how much sugar snacks contain. He said "This was a powerful tool that shocked the children, and even the teachers, especially with- how much sugar is contained in orange juice.

Branch's staff will also skydive for African charity. The sky's the limit for Bolton dentist Dr Mosin Patel this month. Not only does he become head dentist at a new Bolton dental surgery, as part of the Synergy Dental Clinics organisation, but he is also leaping 10,000 feet in a sponsored skydive. The 25 year old will be leading the new practice when it opens in Higher Swan Lane, Great Lever, on march 28th. It will be the second local Synergy practice to be set up by it's Bolton-born clinical director, Dr Zuber Bagasi. Award-winning dentist Dr Bagasi opened his first local clinic in Blackburn Road last year making it the sixth practice he has established around the country. There are already Synergy clinics in Bury, Blackpool, Birmingham and Paisley in Scotland. Dr Bagasi said: "We are really looking forward to this second Bolton clinic as there seems to to be a real need in the Great Lever area. As well as our usual comprehensive services, we will also be offering a full range of cosmetic dental treatments there which have already become very popular with our patients. " First, though, on Sunday March 23rd, Dr Patel will be joining his 26 year old colleague Sophie Henderson, a dental nurse at the Blackpool surgery, will be doing the sponsored skydive in lancaster. They hope to raise £1000 to help the charity Bridge2Aid, which provides dental treatment for patients in Tanzania and other parts of Africa who might otherwise never see a dentist. The Charity lost a major part of it's funding earlier this year and needs to raise £50,000 by the end of March to continue its life-changing work. Synergy is already a strong supporter of Bridge2Aid. Last year. Dr Bagasi headed a group of local dentists on a trip to climb Ben Nevis in Scotland which raised £3000 for the charity's funds. The skydive however, is especially challenging for Dr Patel and Miss Henderson as they are both afraid of heights. Dr Patel added: "We know how important the charity is and we fully support it's work, so we're determined to make this jump.

> Bad breath, also called halitosis, can be embarrassing and in some cases may even cause anxiety.How to treat and prevent it, and when to seek medical advice

- Tags: Bad Breath, Dr. Zuber Bagasi, Ask the Expert
Halitosis, or what we refer to as bad breath, is something many of us worry about. It can be very problematic for suffering individuals and really knocks their confidence. Bad breath can be temporarily masked by chewing gum or mints but how can you stop it coming back time and time again? Here are a few tips to help you beat that bad breath. Firstly you need to know that bad breath (halitosis) is caused by bacteria in the mouth not being brushed/cleaned away effectively over a period of time. This bacteria forms a 'Biofilm' layer anywhere it can cling on to, like grooves and ridges in the tongue surface, under the gums line and even the back of the throat. This biofilm layer not only protects the bacteria, but encourages the growth of more bacteria, which is why simply popping a chewing gum in your mouth or a quick blast of mouthwash now and again will not get rid of any nasty smells. You need to effectively brush twice a day, morning and evening, for at least two minutes each time. Electric toothbrushes are great for aiding efficient brushing, but if you get the technique right a manual toothbrush will be just as good. Make sure you are hitting every surface of the teeth and also angling the tooth brush to make sure you clean that gum line. Gums are just as important as teeth when it comes to good oral hygiene. In addition to this you need to start flossing at least once a day, as this can dislodge any food or bacteria trapped between the teeth or under the gum line which can contribute towards bad breath. As well as brushing the teeth you should take around 30 seconds to brush your tongue. The bacteria which causes bad breath love the grooves in the tongue as it makes a perfect breeding ground for them. You can actually buy a tongue scrapper but I find that a toothbrush does just as well. It can take a bit of getting used to but you will feel the difference in your mouth straight away. Many people use mouthwash as it feels like instant blast of freshness. However, antibacterial mouthwashes will only have any benefit if effective cleaning has taken place beforehand. If you use mouthwash do not rely on it to do all the work for you. The mouthwash is fine to use during the day for 'top ups,' but if you suffer badly from bad breath I would recommend brushing and flossing after every meal as food is often a trigger for bad breath. TOP TIPS SUMMARY • Effective brushing - Twice a day, two minutes each time. • Flossing - Once a day, dislodges trapped food and bacteria. • Brush the tongue - Clean that bacteria breeding ground. • Mouthwash and chewing gum - They will help but will not do the hard work for you. • Regular dental check-ups - identity problems and help you maintain good oral health • Keep hydrated - Plenty of water, and avoid sugary drinks • Stop smoking - bad breath, gum disease, oral cancer.

Q. What is the difference between me cleaning my teeth and the dental hygienist cleaning them for me? A. There is a whole world of difference between the two. To understand the importance of getting your teeth cleaned by a hygienist you have to look at the role of the hygienist. A hygienist is a licensed health professional and oral health educator who has an important role to play in the overall health and welfare of the public. The dental hygienist is an integral part of the dental team, providing direct patient care based on the prevention of disease. The techniques, equipment and materials they use to clean your gums is more thorough than a manual bristle brush. This doesn't mean that you shouldn't use your brush: your manual toothbrush removes the daily plaque build-up but it doesn't clean between your teeth and especially underneath your gums. The hygienist has at her disposal equipment which can remove the most stubborn of hard plaque and tartar between teeth and he or she can also clean deep under the gums, removing food debris and bacteria that has been there for years. By getting underneath the gums, the hygienist can remove the bacteria build-up that causes gum disease and bleeding gums when brushing. This is one of the major reasons why most people lose their teeth as they get older. We recommend you see your hygienist every three months to get a thorough clean and to ensure your gums are healthy. This will reduce the risks of getting gum disease if you follow your hygienist's oral health advice along with your regular daily brushing. In the long-term, seeing the hygienist will contribute to ensuring you keep your natural teeth for as long as possible whilst also gaining valuable knowledge that can be passed on to the next generation.

Group conquer Ben Nevis to help world's poorest A group of dentists has "scaled" the country's highest mountain to raise more than £3,000 to help some of the world's poorest people. The daring dentists took about six hours to climb 4,409 foot Ben Nevis in Scotland. They were being sponsored to help boost funds for the Bridge2Aid charity which has been working tirelessly in Tanzania for the past 10 years to make dental services accessible to poor people in remote areas. The idea for the climb came from Dr Zuber Bagasi, aged 31, from Lostock, the founder of Synergy dental practices in Blackburn Road in Bolton and Tenterden Street in Bury. Dr Bagasi also has clinics in Blackpool, Birmingham and Paisley in Renfrewshire. The group also included Dr Imran Chaddat, a 25-year-old associate dentist at the Bury practice who lives in Bolton, Dr Ramki Ginagunta, aged 33, also from Bolton who is head dentist at the Bury practice and 27-year-old Dr Ai Ling Lim who is head dentist at the Bolton clinic. None of the dentists had ever climbed before but worked with Bolton sports therapist Arshad Hafezi and were accompanied on the climb by an experienced mountaineer. The plucky group had to brave gradually worsening weather to reach the summit. Dr Bagasi said: "As the conditions got below freezing towards the top, the challenge became even more difficult. "We worked extremely well as a team, though, and without that team spirit and motivation I am sure we wouldn't have made it to the top. "

A Blackpool dentist is celebrating further recognition in his profession just weeks after scooping a top local award. Dr Zuber Bagasi, clinical director of the Synergy Dental Clinic in Central Drive , won Blackpool Dentist of the Year after more than 100 local patients nominated him for the title in the Best of Health Awards. They praised his professionalism, excellent manner and high quality of work. Now, 30 year-old Dr Bagasi has also won Highly Commended in the Business Person of the Year category in the Bolton and Bury Business Awards. Dr Bagasi - who has also opened clinics in Birmingham, Bolton, Bury and in Paisley, Scotland over the last few years - was delighted with this second success so soon after the Blackpool title. "I was really honoured to receive the Blackpool award and it is a great reflection on myself and my team, especially as it involved nominations from patients," he said. "Then to take Highly Commended in these Business Awards was doubly satisfying.

For years Lindsay Anderson was unhappy with the shape and shade of her teeth. "Whitening wouldn't necessarily bring my teeth up to the shade I wanted, and wouldn't resolve the structure of my teeth, so I started to think about veneers," she says. Lindsay looked at different UK clinics. I was nervous, so they had to be friendly, approachable and affordable. Two years later, a friend showed me her bright, white veneers and it pushed me to look harder! "" She discovered Synergy Dental Clinic, who have a Blackpool branch. ''This was brilliant. Dr Zuber Bagasi made me at ease before a full examination of my teeth to ensure I was a suitable patient for veneers, and that this was the best option. "I went back to have impressions. a diagnostic wax-up, lo get a good idea of what the end result would be. "Two weeks later I went to have my teeth prepared, ready for the veneers. I was nervous, but the dental team were supportive and assured me I had nothing to worry about. "Dr Bagasi was patient and really helped calm my nerves. A nurse held my hand throughout, and in what felt like no time at all, my temporary veneers were on. I could already see an improvement. "After 10 days, Dr. Bagasi showed me the veneers. They were brilliant - so straight and white! I closed my eyes and opened them to see a brilliant white smile, and can't describe my happiness. "The result is what I wanted for so many years. 'I've become a permanent patient at Synergy and would recommend them to anyone. Dr Bagasi and team were fabulous. I can't thank them enough for my perfect, white smile. "

My name is Shirley Stonehewer and I've been a patient at Synergy Dental Clinic since 2007. After seeing Dr Zuber Bagasi for about a year, I asked his advice about my missing teeth. Dr Bagasi explained the options and after a lot of thought I decided on dental implants. I'm a nervous patient but the Synergy team answered my questions and made me feel relaxed. I had the implant surgery in 2008. The whole treatment process took almost four months, and the team looked after me and kept me informed throughout. It has really improved my quality of life and I feel much more confident. I decided to stay with Synergy and I now enjoy my visits to see Dr Bagasi rather than being a bag of nerves. But at one after-care appointment, Dr Bagasi noticed an abnormality. I was seen by his hospital specialist colleague within 24 hours. I am currently undergoing treatment and have been told that if the lesion hadn't been spotted by Dr Bagasi, I probably wouldn't be here now to tell the story. I'm so happy and grateful that Dr Bagasi and his team were diligent in my routine examination. lf I hadn't received the advice. the problems could rapidly have deteriorated. I feel he has contributed to saving my life. My advice to anyone who hasn't visited a dentist for some time is to get booked in. Even if you're scared or nervous, as I was, the team at Synergy Dental will really put you at ease and do their best to make you feel comfortable.

Precautions Avoid hot food or drinks until the anesthetic wears off. This is important as you cannot feel pain properly and may burn or scald your mouth. Also, be careful not to chew your cheek. This is quite a common problem, which can happen when there is no feeling. If you do rest, try to keep your head higher for the first night using an extra pillow if possible. It is also a good idea to use an old pillowcase, or put a towel on the pillow, in case you bleed a little. Use of mouthwash Do not be tempted to rinse the area for the first 24 hours. It is important to allow the socket to heal, and you must be careful not to damage the blood clot by eating on that side or letting your tongue disturb it. This can allow infection into the socket and affect healing. Is there anything else I should avoid? Avoid alcohol for at least 24 hours, as this can encourage bleeding and delay healing. Eat and drink lukewarm food as normal but avoid chewing on that area of your mouth. When should I brush? It is just as important, if not more so, to keep your mouth clean after an extraction. However, you do need to be careful around the extraction site. What do I do if it bleeds? The first thing to remember is that there may be some slight bleeding for the first day or so. Many people are concerned about the amount of bleeding. This is due to the fact that a small amount of blood is mixed with a larger amount of saliva, which looks more dramatic than it is. If you do notice bleeding, do not rinse out, but apply pressure to the socket. Bite firmly on a folded piece of clean cotton material such as a handkerchief for at least 15 minutes. Make sure this is placed directly over the extraction site and that the pad is replaced if necessary. If the bleeding has not stopped after an hour or two, contact your dentist. Can I smoke? It is important not to do anything which will increase your blood pressure, as this can lead to further bleeding. We recommend that you avoid smoking for as long as you can after an extraction, but this should be at least for the rest of the day. Helping the healing process Different people heal at different speeds after an extraction. It is important to keep your mouth and the extraction site as clean as possible, making sure that the socket is kept clear of all food and debris. Don't rinse for the first 24 hours, and this will help your mouth to start healing. After this time use a salt-water mouthwash, which helps to heal the socket. A teaspoon of salt in a glass of warm water gently rinsed around the socket twice a day can help to clean and heal the area. Keep this up for at least a week or for as long as your dentist tells you. Pain medication There will usually be some tenderness in the area for the first few days, and in , most cases some simple pain relief is enough to ease the discomfort. What you would normally take for a headache should be enough. However, always follow the manufacturer's instructions and if in doubt check with your doctor first. Do not take aspirin, as this will make your mouth bleed. Medicines that I should avoid As we have said, it is important not to use anything containing aspirin as this can cause further bleeding. This happens because aspirin can thin the blood slightly. Asthma sufferers should avoid Ibuprofen-based pain relief. Again check with your chemist or dentist if you are worried or feel you need something stronger. Pain persists Sometimes an infection can get in the socket, which can be very painful. This is where there is little or no blood clot in the tooth socket and the bony socket walls are exposed and become infected. This is called a dry socket and in some cases is worse than the original toothache! In this case, it is important to see your dentist, who may place dressing in the socket and prescribe a course of antibiotics to help relieve the infection. You may also feel the sharp edge of the socket with your tongue and sometimes small pieces of bone may work their way to the surface of the socket. This is perfectly normal.

Suffering from bad breath, also known as halitosis, can be embarrassing and restrictive, causing you to alter your behavior in an attempt to hide your problem. But this needn’t be the case for many sufferers. There are a number of possible causes for bad breath, many of which can be rectified simply without the need for dental treatment. What causes bad breath? Poor oral hygiene – Bacteria on the teeth, tongue and gums can lead to the build up on plaque, an increase in tooth decay or even gum disease. Once this bacteria has combined with saliva it can release an unpleasant gas Strong flavored foods – Consuming strongly flavored foods and drink such as garlic, onions and coffee can lead to strong odors if not dealt with quickly Smoking – Smoking can make your breath smell but it also irritates your gums, which can lead to gum disease and bad breath Medicines – Nitrate-based medicines, some chemotherapy medicine and phenothiazines can cause a bad smell in your breath Medical conditions – Dry mouth is one medical condition that can cause bad breath due to a change in the flow of saliva, which allows bacteria to build up in the mouth. Lung and throat infections, bronchitis, sinusitis, diabetes and gastritis are other common causes. Preventing bad breath By altering your oral hygiene routine you can often prevent bad breath without requiring a visit to your dentist. Teeth brushing is particularly important, and should be conducted twice a day in order to prevent the build up of bacteria. During teeth brushing, it is important that the brush can fit into all the areas of the mouth, while a fluoride toothpaste should be used to kill bacteria already growing on the teeth and gums. It’s important that you purchase a new toothbrush every 3 – 4 months if you’re to prevent bad breath. Cleaning between teeth After you have brushed your teeth you should clean in between using floss or an interdental brush. The goal is to clear the spaces between your teeth of food and debris and prevent the build up of bacteria in places that cannot be reached with a tooth brush. Food and drink Avoiding certain types of food and drink can also prevent bad breath. Sugary and starchy foods are particularly bad, often containing large amounts of acid that react to bacteria and cause decay. Fizzy drinks have a similar affect, reacting with bacteria to cause enamel erosion. Dental treatments is important to seek advices from a dentist if you think you may be suffering from either tooth decay or gum disease and they will suggest suitable procedures or treatments that may cure help you manage your bad breath. These could include root canal treatments, extraction, hygienist visits or fillings.

The removal of a tooth, also known as an extraction, is a procedure conducted by a dentist that will see a whole tooth and its roots completely removed from your mouth. Often a last resort after failed treatment or injury, the removal of a tooth will leave a gap in the teeth that can then be filled by a number of artificial substitutes. Reasons for extraction There are a number of reasons why you may require an extraction, including: Injury – If you have experienced facial impact that’s resulted in a jaw injury or tooth damage then you may require an extraction in order to aid recovery. Lack of space – Wisdom teeth begin growing through from around 17 years onwards, but often there isn’t enough space in the mouth to accommodate them. If this is the case, the new teeth will have to be removed in order to prevent infection. Extraction may also be required to make space before the use of braces. Tooth decay and infection – Some teeth may require extraction following decay or the onset of infection. In both cases, alternative options may be considered beforehand, but removal will be necessary if infection or disease is likely to spread to surrounding teeth. The extraction process Before the treatment begins, your dentist will need to take an x-ray to establish the position of the root to assess the appropriate method of removing the tooth. Many extractions will require the widening of the socket that holds the tooth, separating the tissue and bone that holds the tooth. Once the tooth is loosened, it will then be removed completely. However, if the tooth has deep roots your dentist may instead decide to cut through the gums and removed some of the bone in order to reach the tooth. The procedure will take place under local anaesthetic, which will keep you awake during the treatment while blocking the pain. However, if the tooth will be particularly challenging your dentist may recommend general anaesthetic. Extraction aftercare You may experience some swelling or throbbing for a few days after the extraction but the pain should disappear quickly. After the procedure, your dentist may provide antibiotics or painkillers to help reduce the discomfort. Artificial substitutes After the removal, you may prefer to have the gap filled with an artificial substitute. There are a number of options available, although some may only be appropriate in certain circumstances. Partial dentures provide a removal substitute and can be custom-made to ensure a comfortable fit. However, dentures require maintenance and you may require six months of healing time prior to the fitting. A bridge is a permanent substitute that allows the use of a crown by fixing on the adjacent teeth. This prevents the teeth from leaning into the gap and creates the impression of a full set of teeth. A dental implant is the closest alternative to a natural tooth. During the procedure, an artificial root is inserted into the gum, before a crown is placed on top. The implant then has the same strength and life-span of a natural tooth but an temporary substitute may be required after the insertion of the artificial root if the gum requires time to heal.

Brushing your teeth is important to prevent the build up on plaque on and between your teeth. But brushing alone can only remove 60% of plaque, leaving the remainder free to cause infection and disease. In order to remove as much plaque as possible and prevent infection it’s necessary to floss in between teeth. What is Flossing? Flossing is a technique used to target the plaque caught between teeth. Able to access hard-to-reach places in the mouth, the thin material can be used to pull debris left after eating, so preventing the growth of bacteria. If plaque is left between teeth it can harden into tartar, a hard mineral deposit that requires professional removal to prevent the onset of infection. If the correct technique is used, flossing can be used to prevent a number of potential oral hygiene issues including decay, tooth and root infections, gum disease and bad breath. Although not an alternative to traditional brushing, flossing is a beneficial addition to your routine and will target areas of your mouth that are vulnerable to cavities. The correct technique Using the correct technique is important to gain the full benefit of flossing. First, you must ensure you have the right length; around 18 inches wound around one of your middle fingers on each hand. Using your thumb and forefinger, gently insert the floss in between two teeth, curving the floss into a “C” shape against the side of the tooth. Once the string is in position, gently pull the string down along the edge of the tooth, moving from the gum line down towards the edge. This process should then be repeated for the adjacent tooth and then on all other teeth along the top and bottom of the mouth, ensuring that minimal pressure is used to avoid pushing debris against the gums. It is also important to use this technique behind your back teeth to prevent the build up of bacteria between the tooth and gum. There are some special varieties of floss available for those requiring flossing in between crowns and bridges, which prevent the build up of bacteria without compromising the structure of the artificial tooth. It is possible that you may experience bleeding when you first begin flossing, which is an indicator of disease. If you continue to floss the bleeding should eventually subside. However, it is important to seek advice from your dentist if the bleeding persists or if you require more information. How often should I floss? You should floss in between each of your teeth at least once a day to make sure debris doesn’t build up between your teeth. As part of your daily oral routine, flossing can prevent a number of dental issues caused by a lack of inter dental cleaning.

- Tags: Sensitive Teeth
Living with sensitive teeth can be frustrating and impair your ability to enjoy everyday food and drink. Encompassing anything from a mild twinge to severe pain and discomfort, sensitivity in teeth can be applied to anyone but commonly occurs between the ages of 20 and 40. What causes sensitivity? Tooth sensitivity is caused by exposure of the dentine under your enamel, which is the softer part of your tooth. Dentine is attached to the nerves in your teeth via tiny tubes filled with fluid. By regularly consuming food and drink that is hot, cold or sweet it is possible to change the movement of the fluid, causing the nerve endings to react in response. There are a number of causes for the exposure of dentine including: Tooth Abrasion – A toothbrush that is too hard or used with too much force can abrade the enamel on the tooth, particularly at the thinner areas near the gumline. Once this area is worn away, dentine can be exposed and lead to sensitivity. Tooth Erosion – The excessive consumption of fizzy drinks or acidic food can erode teeth, dissolving enamel and ultimately exposing dentine. Gum Recession – Extreme force during brushing can lead to recession of the gums, exposing the unprotected roots and the lower part of the dentine. Gum Disease – Plaque and tartar build up can slowly wear away the surface of the tooth, causing cavities and gaps. These gaps expose the inner dentine, leading to sensitivity. Cracked Tooth or Filling – A crack in a tooth or filling can run down to the root of the tooth, leaving nerves exposed. Treating sensitivity Your dentist will advise you about the best course of treatment for your sensitivity, but there are a number of common options that they may recommend: • Desensitising toothpaste can help block pain from the nerves after a few uses, but may require regular use • Fluoride can be applied to the sensitive area to strengthen enamel and reduce the pain • Exposed root surfaces may be covered with a sealant, which will prevent pain caused by receding gums • Root canal treatment can be used in cases involving extreme pain. This process involves the removal of the tooth’s soft core, so preventing the dentine from connecting with nerves and instigating pain Preventing sensitive teeth To prevent sensitive teeth from recurring, there are a number of daily rituals that you can follow. Brushing twice daily with a soft brush will prevent many of the causes of sensitive teeth, including receding gums and plaque build up. Soft brushing is also beneficial, preventing the abrasion of the tooth surface and exposure of the dentine. Limiting acidic food and drinks will also prevent the erosion of enamel, as will the use of alkaline foods to counter the acidity.

Tooth brushing is a vital part of your daily dental hygiene routine. By preventing the build-up of plaque, toothbrushing can help you avoid the onset of a number of gum and tooth problems including tooth decay, gum disease, and infection. The benefits of toothbrushing Brushing your teeth removes food debris, bacteria, and plaque from the surface of your teeth and the gaps under the gumline. The build-up of bacteria in these areas can lead to a number of dental problems, which is why it is vital to get your brush into as many gaps and spaces as possible. This removal of debris and bacteria will also affect your breath, which can become filled with bad-smelling gases if bacteria are allowed to build up. How to brush your teeth • Place the head of the toothbrush against the surface of your teeth and lean the bristles at a 45-degree angle against the gum line. Begin moving the brush in small, circular movements on each surface. Make sure each surface receives several brushes before you move on. • Brush the outer surfaces of every tooth on both your upper and lower jaw, ensuring that the bristles remain angled against the gumline • Brush inside the mouth, ensuring that you repeat the motion on each chewing and biting surface • When cleaning the inside surfaces of the front teeth, lean the brush vertically and make small, circular motions with the front part of the brush • Brush your tongue lightly to freshen your breath and remove bacteria Electric or manual? Both electric and manual toothbrushes can achieve the same results provided they are used correctly. Some find it easier to brush with electric toothbrushes, which are also designed to fit into the mouth with ease. However, a manual toothbrush does provide more control and can allow the user to reach further into the mouth without causing injury. Toothpaste There are a number of different types of toothpaste available, most of which contain fluoride. Advocated by the British Dental Health Foundation, fluoride toothpaste helps prevent cavities and control the decay of teeth. It is particularly useful during the development of adult teeth as it strengthens growing enamel and increases protection. It is important that each individual in a household is using the correct amount of fluoride in their toothpaste in order to prevent fluorosis. This is the process of excessive fluoride causing discolouration and flecks in teeth due to an overexposure to fluoride. It is also important to use enough fluoride in order to protect the teeth. The correct amount for each age group is: • A smear of toothpaste containing no less that 1,000ppm (parts per million) of fluoride for children under three • A pea-sized amount of toothpaste containing 1,350-1,500pppm fluoride for children aged three to six • Toothpaste containing at least 1,450ppm fluoride for adults

Your diet can have a significant effect on your dental health, leading to decay and disease if you don’t balance your nutrition. A healthy diet contains food from a number of groups including fruit and vegetables, carbohydrates, protein and dairy. However, some of the foods in these groups should be consumed in moderation if you are to avoid oral health problems. Carbohydrates and dental health There are two main types of carbohydrate, both of which can affect dental health. The first, sugar, is a leading cause of dental decay, which can lead to cavities, fillings or dental extractions. The decay occurs when the sugar reacts with the bacteria in plaque, leading to a breakdown of the enamel. Although it’s not advised to cut sugar out of your diet completely, it is important to limit your intake in order to prevent cavities. Large amount of acid are also present in many sugary foods including fruit, juice and fizzy drinks. Acid can also cause damage to teeth by eroding the surface, thinning the enamel. One way to prevent this is to reduce the amount of time you consume acidic foods to once or twice a day or balance your snacks with alkaline foods such as cheese and carrots. Another method of preventing sugar-related tooth decay is to brush thoroughly twice a day with fluoride toothpaste, although the calcium and phosphate in your saliva will naturally repair your enamel if you leave enough time between sugar-based snacks. The second type of carbohydrate, starches, can also cause tooth decay. Starchy foods, although less acidic that sugars, are more likely to cling to your teeth. This provides bacteria with a larger opportunity to react to the acids, causing damage to enamel. Good foods There are a number of foods that are particularly good for oral health such as orange vegetables, including pumpkins, carrots and sweet potatoes. These contain vitamin A, which aids the building of enamel during tooth development. Celery is also particularly effective at cleansing and stimulating the gums, while helping your mouth generate saliva. Onions contain antibacterial sulphur compounds that kill bacteria in the mouth, preventing decay. Shiitake mushrooms have similar qualities; containing lentinan, the mushrooms prevent bacteria from forming plaque, Although not strictly a food, the chewing of sugar-free gum has also been attributed with positive dental affects due to the fact that it encourages your mouth to produce saliva and break down bacteria. Dental advice summary • Don’t eat sugary or starchy foods more than twice a day • Leave large breaks in between sugary meals to give your saliva the opportunity to break down the acids • Use alkaline foods to counter acidic foods during meals • Avoid sticky starch foods such as crisps • Watch what you drink – fizzy drinks and fruit juices can cause as much damage as sugary foods • Chew sugar-free gum to encourage the production of saliva after eating

- Tags: Wisdom Teeth
Wisdom teeth are the last teeth to appear in the mouth between the age of 17 and 25. Also known as your third molars, they don’t always emerge despite resting in the jaw. The maximum number of teeth an adult can have is 32, but many modern jaws are too small to hold more than 28, leading to the frequent removal of wisdom teeth. Many suffer from pain and discomfort as their wisdom teeth attempt to come through the gums, particularly when they’re coming through at an angle or attempting to fit into a small mouth. But this is not the only reason for removal; in some cases wisdom teeth are removed to protect established teeth from damage as the wisdom teeth grow too close. Caring for wisdom teeth If you are lucky enough to have your wisdom teeth through in a healthy position, it is important to give them the same level of dental care as any other tooth. Although positioned far back in the mouth, wisdom teeth require twice daily brushing and flossing to avoid the build up of bacteria and the onset of gum disease. Removing wisdom teeth Similar to general surgical extraction, the removal of wisdom teeth will begin with an x-ray to establish its position and angle in the gum. If your dentist feels that your tooth may have enough room to grow through without causing problems, they may suggest that extraction is not necessary. If extraction is necessary, however, then you will be given a local anaesthetic before the process begins. This will block the pain present in your gums during the procedure while you remain awake. However, if your dentist thinks your tooth is particularly challenging they may suggest you have the procedure under general anaesthetic. Wisdom teeth extraction is similar to the removal of any other molar, and involves the widening of the tooth socket, separating the tissue and bone that holds the tooth. Once the tooth is loosened, it will then be removed completely. If your tooth has deep roots, however, it may be difficult to extract. If this is the case, your dentist may need to cut through the gums and remove some of your bone in order to remove the tooth. Removal aftercare After your procedure you are advised to rest, and those who have had a local anaesthetic may experience a numbing around the area for several hours. Some swelling and discomfort in and around the extraction area can also be expected for a few days after the procedure. It is possible that your dentist will prescribe antibiotics or mouthwash to reduce the throbbing after the treatment, but if you require further pain relieve seek advice from them at a later date.

Gum disease is the leading dental problem affecting people in the UK, with an estimated 50% of adults suffering from one form at any time. Caused by a build up of plaque, gum disease can lead to swelling and bleeding of the gums, pain, infection and tooth loss if not treated. Plaque Plaque is a sticky, colorless substance containing bacteria that is continuously forming on the surface of your teeth and contains saliva, food and fluids. Without the correct daily dental routine, plaque can form on teeth, trapping stains and causing a number of gum problems. Plaque begins forming on the teeth within four to 12 hours after brushing, making it important to brush twice a day in order to prevent build up. The use of flossing and mouthwash is also encouraged in the fight against plaque as they prevent the build up between teeth. However, if plaque is not removed correctly, it can develop into tartar. Tartar Also known as calculus, tartar is a crusty substance that causes discoloration and traps stains on teeth. Tartar is formed when calcium and phosphate bind to form crystals, which then combines with plaque before hardening. Tartar is a strong substance and so can only be remove by dental professionals, rather than by brushing alone. The substance is capable of forming underneath the gumline and irritates gums, affecting the tooth from the root. Unlike plaque, tartar is a mineral build up and so can be seen when coated on teeth. Commonly, it is yellow or brown in colour. How does tartar cause gum disease? As tartar and plaque builds on your gums, bacteria begins to eat away at your tissue, causing inflammation and bleeding. During this process, bacteria is able to make its way into your gums through gaps caused by plaque, so spreading further down the tooth. This can lead to infection, causing pain and swelling in the gums. As the gums swell and bacteria grows, the gums begin to recede and widen, making teeth loose and even more susceptible to infection. At this stage, it may be necessary to remove the tooth to prevent further spread of the disease. Preventing gum disease The key to preventing gum disease is a good oral hygiene. This involves: • Brushing your teeth – this should be done twice each day just before eating or an hour afterwards. A traditional manual toothbrush is effective, but there are some electric toothbrushes that are favored by dentists and my prove more effective in the removal of plaque • Cleaning between teeth – It is equally as important to clean between your teeth. There are a number of areas that are often missed by a toothbrush but still contain food debris and bacteria, which can cause gum disease if ignored. There are a number of products that can clean between teeth, but commonly flossing interdental brushing is favored, both of which should be used once or twice a day.

- Tags: Mouthwash
Mouthwash can be used as part of your daily dental hygiene routine to prevent the build up of bacteria and the onset of infection. Although not a substitute for brushing, this popular dental wash comes in a variety of brands and types, and each option provides a different benefit. Benefits of mouthwash Depending on the type chosen, mouthwash provides a variety of benefits, including: • The prevention of bad breath and mouth odor • A reduction in bacteria and plaque, even in areas that can’t be reached by conventional toothbrushes • The prevention of tooth decay and cavities through the removal of plaque • The prevention of infection and gum disease through the killing of bacteria • Help with targeting of plaque with a toothbrush Types of mouthwash There are a number of different types of mouthwash, but some may be more suitable for you than others. Alcohol-based mouthwashes can be highly effective, but it is often recommended that they are avoided by children or recovering alcoholics due to the high levels of alcohol. Many people also require sensitive mouthwashes if the stronger wash causes oral irritation, and this can also be useful after a dental procedure. Some mouthwashes are target plaque control and contain ingredients specifically designed to reduce plaque between teeth and prevent infection. These mouthwashes may not be suitable for those wishing to target bad breath. This is also true for fluoride-based mouthwashes, which are specifically designed to target tooth decay. Occasionally mouthwashes, such as Corsodyl, can only be used for a short period of time as they stain teeth and can alter taste perception. If you’re unsure about your chosen mouthwash, seek advice from your dentist. How to use mouthwash If you use mouthwash correctly, you are more likely to see the long-term benefits in your dental health. The first step in using mouthwash is to identify the correct amount and ensure that it’s not exceeded. This can often be achieved by using labelled caps on the bottle, which will help you measure the mouthwash before use. If your cap does not contain measurements, it is also possible to purchase specialist dispensers. It is also important to dilute your mouthwash according to the instructions on the bottle. Although many mouthwashes are sold in the correct concentration, some require dilution before use. If you fail to dilute concentrated mouthwash you may experience irritation in your mouth or cause enamel erosion. During use, mouthwash should be swished vigorously for 30-60 seconds. Take care not to swallow the solution and rinse your mouth with water after use, particularly when using a concentrates wash.

- Tags: X-rays
Dental x-rays enable dentists to visualise diseases and decay in your mouth that cannot be seen with a general oral examination or those that are in the early stages of development. Allowing dentists to see beneath the enamel and gums, x-rays can help identify infections, cavities or disease in the root and tooth below the gumline. Types of x-ray There are a number of interoral x-rays used by dentists, including: • Bite-wing – These show the details of the upper and lower teeth in one chosen area of the mouth, from the crown of the tooth to the level supporting the bone • Periapical – These show the whole tooth from the crown to beyond the end of the root where the tooth is anchored • Occlusal – These are the largest x-rays and show the full development and placement of teeth across the lower and upper jaw How often should you have an x-ray? The frequency with which you have dental x-rays is dependent on your dental history and the current condition of your mouth. If you have a history of dental problems or you’re currently suffering from disease it may be necessary for you to have dental x-rays every six months. However, those with infrequent problems and a good level oral hygiene will only require x-rays every few years at the request of their dentist. Are x-rays harmful? The level of radiation emitted from dental x-rays is extremely low, and in many areas it measures below the level of rotation found naturally in soil and the environment. Here at Synergy, we also use the latest x-ray technology to make sure our patients receive the safest treatment possible. Despite this, synergy dentists will still only use x-rays when medically necessary. The British Dental Association recommended that pregnant women inform their dentist before an x-ray, but there is no research to suggest that the small amounts of radiation emitted are harmful. Who do they belong to? X-rays will become part of your health records and should be kept in your dental file. Your dentist must keep your dental records for at least two years from the date of your last course of treatment. You are entitled to copies of your dental health records, including your x-rays, under the Access to Health Records Act 1990, but you will have to pay for these. If you change dentist, however, your new dentist will have access to your previous dental records free of charge.

A natural mineral, fluoride is found in food and drinking water across the UK. The amount of fluoride present in water varies throughout the country, with some counties and towns experiencing far higher levels than others. What are the benefits of Fluoride? The main benefit of fluoride is its prevention of tooth decay, which can lead to infection and gum disease if not addressed. The mineral disrupts the decay process by changing the structure of developing enamel, making it more resistant to acid, and by reducing the ability of plaque bacteria to produce acid, which is the cause of dental decay. The benefits are particularly obvious within childhood, during which time teeth are still developing. In fact, studies have shown that the use of fluoride during this developmental stage will reduce the size of grooves on the teeth, making it easier to remove plaque later in life. Where can I find it? Fluoride occurs naturally in many foods and across the UK water supply. Research has found that a ratio of 0. 7 to 1. 2 parts of fluoride for every million parts of water (0. 7ppm to 1. 2ppm) will have the best effect on teeth, although other studies dispute this. Some water suppliers add fluoride to water in a process called fluoridation, which has been taking place since the early 20th Century. Since its introduction, many scientists have found evidence suggesting that the process is beneficial, contributing to the reduction of decay in populations. The mineral is also found in a number of toothpastes in varying levels. Often recommended in areas without fluoridated water, fluoride toothpaste has been found to reduce levels of decay and provide extra protection for teeth. Can I give my children extra fluoride? Research has suggested that children under three should use a toothpaste containing a fluorite level of at least 1000ppm, increasing to between 1350ppm and 1500ppm after three years. This should be done under parental supervision, with only a pea-sized amount used until the age of seven. Many studies also show that children in poorer areas can have significantly higher levels of decay than those living in richer areas, where water typically contains higher levels of fluoride. These findings indicate that the addition of the mineral in similar areas may be equally beneficial and reduce the chances of decay. Here at Synergy we can provide gels and mouthwash to both children and adults as a supplement in low fluoridated areas. Often more concentrated that traditional toothpastes, these additional product don’t require daily use. All supplements and toothpastes should be used in the correct dosage to avoid fluorosis, a common side effect of overuse. Fluorosis commonly appears on the surface of teeth as find flecking or white lines, but severe fluorosis can lead to discolouration of the enamel. Is fluoride safe? There is some controversy surrounding the use of additional fluoride. In many parts of the world, including the UK and the US, it is often added to water and food as a means of preventing dental decay in the population. A number of government-issued studies have confirmed this benefit, suggesting that the mineral is a positive additional with regards to dental health. There are a number of critics who believe that fluoride leads to a number of health conditions, although this is disputed. However, the increase in fluorosis in relation to additional fluoride has been noted across many populations.

Food debris left between teeth can lead to a build of bacteria and plaque, ultimately resulting in infection and gum disease if not addressed. Interdental brushes have been designed to fit in those hard to reach areas, preventing the build up of plaque and tartar. What is an interdental brush? An interdental brush is a small spiral shaped brush that is designed to fit in between teeth without causing damage to the gums or enamel. Available in different sizes, the brushes can be used in place of a toothbrush in places that are difficult to reach with conventional brushes, preventing the build up of bacteria and plaque. Interdental brushes are also suitable as a substitute for conventional toothbrushes when used on bridges and crowns; allowing you to take extra care, the brush can clean on and around the artificial tooth without causing damage or missing food debris. Brushes are an effective alternative to flossing, which is also used to removed plaque and debris from between teeth. Less awkward and time consuming, interdental brushing achieves the same end without requiring the measuring or adjusting of floss. How do I use an interdental brush? Your dentist may offer advice on how to use and choose the size of your dental brush. For different sized gaps you may require a number of different brushes, each designed to fit between teeth without causing damage. Once you’ve chosen the correct brush size and removed the cap, gently insert it between your teeth and move the brush backwards and forwards without force. While using your brush, be sure not to put too much pressure on the gums, which may lead to bleeding. If you find it difficult to clean between teeth you may need to choose a smaller size. Ask your dentist for more information if you’d like advice on different brush sizes or guidance on brushing technique. How often should I use it? As with flossing, interdental brushing should be undertaken once a day. This will ensure that all daily food debris is removed from between teeth and prevent the build up of bacteria or plaque. If you experience persistent bleeding or soreness after using the brush, you may be brushing too frequently. However, bleeding and swollen gums can be expected within the first few days as you remove plaque build up. Ask your dentist for more information if you’re unsure or the bleeding persists.

Teeth are an important part of our body, vital for eating the correct food and also useful in communication. Aside from our baby teeth, or milk teeth, we only have one set of teeth to last us a lifetime, so it’s important that we take care of them. Baby teeth Teeth begin to develop as soon as babies are born, but they don’t often begin to come through until around the age of 6 months old. Through a process known as teething, the teeth will begin to grow through the gums until around three years old, when most babies will have a full set of 20 milk teeth. Adult teeth Milk teeth will begin to fall at around five years old, making way for adult teeth. By the age of 12, most of these adult teeth will have grown into place, giving children a set of 28 teeth. A full set of adult teeth contains 32 teeth, but the final four may not grow through until the age of 21, if at all. These final four molars are known as wisdom teeth and commonly require removal due to a lack of space in the modern adult mouth. Different parts of the tooth There are a number of parts contained in each tooth, and all of these parts are made from slightly different substances. The section of the tooth present above the gum line is known as the crown. This section is covered in enamel, which is the hardest substance in the body and provides protection to the sensitive inside of the tooth. Underneath the crown lies dentine, a sensitive part that runs down through most of the tooth. This is in place to protect the most sensitive part, the pulp. Containing the blood supply and nerve endings, the pulp is the substance that keeps the tooth alive and sends messages to the brain during eating or drinking. The pulp also runs into the root, which is the final part of the tooth. Covered with cementum, the root of the tooth is combined with periodontal fibres and connects the tooth to the jawbone to hold it in place. Types of teeth There are four types of teeth inside the mouth, each of which has a different purpose. The first of these are the incisors. Located at the front of your mouth, you have four incisors on the top jaw and four on the bottom. These teeth are used for cutting and chopping food. The second type of teeth are the canines. These are located next to the incisors, with one each side on each jaw, and they are designed to be sharp and pointy. These teeth are used to tear food, such as meat and other tough ingredients. Premolars are also known as bicuspids and they are located next to your canines. There are eight in total, with four on the top jaw and four on the bottom. These teeth are larger that both incisors and canines, and they are designed for crushing and grinding food. Finally, the molars are located in the back of each jaw. There are eight in total, although this is without the wisdom teeth, which make up the final four teeth. Molars are the strongest teeth in your mouth and they work to help you mash food and swallow safely.

A modern method of reducing dental problems, preventative dentistry describes the process of working with your dentist and hygienist to maintain healthy teeth and gums. If approached correctly by the patient, preventative dentistry will help teeth last longer, while avoiding the most common dental problems, including tooth decay and gum disease. Here at Synergy, we recommend a tailored course of preventative dentistry to ensure that each patient receives relevant care and attention. Working with your assigned dentist and hygienist, you can also take part in the planning of the treatment to ensure that you’re happy with your responsibilities with regards to daily dental care. Does preventative dentistry benefit everyone? Preventative dentistry can benefit anyone, whether they are caring for a full set of healthy teeth or fighting to beat gum disease. Even patients who are using dentures can benefit from a tailored plan that will prevent the build up of bacteria in the mouth, reducing the chances of infection and cancer. The process is particularly beneficial for children, providing them with early education into dental care. The process Before you begin discussing an appropriate dental plan, your dentist will assess your teeth and gums. This is your opportunity to inform your dentist of any issues you’ve been having, although any new problems can be worked into the programme at a later date if necessary. Once you have agreed on a plan, the dentist and hygienist can get to work with your chosen treatments. Your hygienist will take the first steps in your preventative plan, scaling and polishing your teeth to remove and plaque or tartar that has built up on and around each tooth. Once complete, your hygienist will show you how to care for your teeth to prevent future build up, discussing the brushing technique, interdental brushing or flossing and the benefits of mouthwash. Each of these techniques is aimed at reducing the build-up of bacteria and to fighting potential dental problems before their onset. Your dentist and hygienist may also discuss your personal habits, which may be contributing to dental problems. This could include your diet, which can increase the amount of acid in your mouth, or personal habits such as smoking and drinking. Finally, your dentist will make sure that all fillings and artificial teeth are in good shape and easy to clean, to aid your daily routine. If any of your fillings need changing, your dentist may discuss a separate appointment during which your replacement can be fitted.

Pregnancy can have an unexpectedly large effect on your dental health. A change in hormones, diet and lifestyle can take their toll on your general and your oral health. Once the baby is born, you also need to consider the dental care of your child, and it is important to seek advice from your dentist so you can provide them with the best dental care possible. Pregnancy During pregnancy your hormones can affect your dental health. Increased tooth decay and gum disease are just two side effects that are commonly seen and should be dealt with before they become a permanent problem, potentially leading to tooth loss. Increased levels of progesterone and oestrogen can also affect the bones and gums that support the teeth, leading to loose teeth and bleeding gums. Is dental treatment safe during pregnancy? Routine treatment is safe during pregnancy, but the department of health recommends that women avoid having amalgam fillings fitted during this time. Some patients also avoid having x-rays during pregnancy, but government guidelines also state that they are safe when the beam is directed away from the womb. Post-pregnancy After the birth of your child it is important that you continue to look after your teeth. However, the dental health and development of your child should now be considered during your daily dental routine. Appearing from around 6 months, your baby’s teeth will continue to grow through until all 20 are baby teeth are present. Also known as the teething stage, this process can be painful and cause a high temperature intermittently throughout. During this time, it is possible to use specialist gel to reduce the pain and discomfort. When should I take my baby to the dentist? It is possible to bring your baby to the dentist during your own routine check up, but babies do not need to visit a dentist until their teeth are beginning to grow through. Breastfeeding and dental health Research conducted by the World Health Organisation suggests that babies breastfeeding past the start of the teething stage can experience tooth decay due to the natural sugars within breast milk. The alternative, bottled milk, is considered an appropriate alternative provided no sugar is added to the drinks. Solid food Your doctor will advise you on the appropriate solid food to feed your baby, but food without sugar will be the best for your child’s dental health. Food and drink containing sugar can cause tooth decay and prevent the appropriate development of enamel in extreme cases. Fluoride supplements could be added to your baby’s diet in order to strengthen enamel and prevent decay, but it is important to seek advice from your dentist beforehand. When should teeth cleaning begin? As soon as your baby begins teething you should begin cleaning their teeth. Age-appropriate cleaning tools are often available to ensure that gums are not damage during the cleaning, but a toothbrush will be essential as more teeth grow through. Fluoride toothpaste is also available for young children and should be used to remove bacteria from teeth twice daily. The effect of thumb-sucking and dummies It is beneficial for babies if thumb-sucking and dummies are prevented throughout the development of teeth and beyond. Both can lead to the changes in the trajectory of growing teeth, leading to a need for braces at a later date.

Affecting between 15% and 20% of the world’s population and an estimated 50% of adults in the UK, gum disease is usually experienced at least once throughout a lifetime. Often causing the swelling or bleeding of the gums, this common dental problem is not always easy to detect but comes in two main forms. Gingivitis, the most common form of gum disease, is commonly caused when gums become irritated by plaque that has built up on your teeth. This plaque can then get underneath the gum line, causing gums to become red, swollen and prone to bleeding during brushing. An early stage of gum disease, gingivitis can be treated and cured if plaque is removed and your gums are given the opportunity to recover. Periodontitis, or periodontal disease, is a more serious form of gum disease that occurs when gingivitis remains untreated. After a period of gingivitis, your gums may begin to pull away from your teeth, leaving small gaps. These gaps provide the perfect space in which bacteria, debris and plaque can build up, while remaining unreachable by a conventional toothbrush. As the gaps grow and become harder to clean, gums and bones may begin to shrink, known as periodontitis. This severe form of gum disease can lead to teeth become loose or the shrinking of gums, which may expose roots. Once the disease has reached this stage is can no longer be cured, but with the correct treatment you can stop the process from developing any further. Causes of gum disease There are a number of common causes including: • Personal habits, such as smoking • Poor oral hygiene • Genetics; some families are more susceptible to the disease than others • Medication, including those that cause dry mouth • Illnesses, such as cancer or HIV • Hormonal changes, such as those occurring during pregnancy and puberty Signs and symptoms Commonly the first symptoms of gingivitis include bleeding gums when you brush your teeth and red or swollen gums throughout the rest of the day. These symptoms can develop into bad breath, wobbly teeth or gum abscesses if left untreated. Signs of more severe gum disease include painful ulcers, a metallic taste in your mouth, and receding gums. Treatment of gum disease The type of treatment required will depend on the severity of the disease. If you have mild gingivitis it may be possible to treat the problem using a structured oral hygiene routine. This may include brushing twice daily, using an antiseptic mouthwash and daily flossing to prevent the build up of plaque. For more developed forms of the disease, a scale and polish session with a hygienist may be necessary to remove up thick plaque or tartar that has formed between the teeth. Periodontal disease may require further non-surgical or surgical treatment in order to prevent its development, although many of the effects may be irreversible. The specialist treatment may include extraction or cleaning within the gums to remove infection and bacteria.

The enamel on our teeth is relatively strong, but if we don’t look after our mouths then tooth decay can occur. Also known as dental decay, this is the process whereby plaque builds up on the teeth leading to tartar and eventually the breakdown of the tooth, leading to gaps and lesions. What causes decay? Decay is caused by plaque, which is formed from bacteria and produces acids that slowly soften the enamel on your teeth. As the acids continue to eat through the tissue, this can lead to small holes or large cavities in your teeth. Aside from the gaps and cavities caused by decay, the process can also lead to infection and gum disease, both of which often have a number of negative symptoms. These symptoms include localised pain or discomfort, bleeding and swollen gums, and loose teeth. You should visit your dentist as soon as you notice any of these signs so you can start treatment immediately. Treatment The treatment required for decay is dependent on its severity. For minor decay it may be possible to have a small filling or inlay introduced into the mouth, which will successfully hide the cavity. For more serious decay, you may require a crown, bridge or even a dental implant to replace a damaged tooth. Before each treatment is undertaken, the area of the mouth affected will be thoroughly cleansed to ensure that decay doesn’t continue. Your dentist will advice you on the suitability of each treatment based on your individual circumstances. It is also possible to treat the early stage of decay by altering your daily oral hygiene routine. This should include brushing twice a day, flossing between teeth, using mouthwash to kill bacteria and using fluoride toothpaste or supplements to protect your enamel. Your diet can also have a large impact on the decay of your teeth and there are a number of tips you should remember when considering your dental health: • Don’t eat sugary or starchy foods more than twice a day, these can lead to a increase in acid levels in your mouth • Leave large breaks in between sugary meals to give your saliva the opportunity to break down the acids, preventing decay • Use alkaline foods to counter acidic foods during meals to prevent the build up of acids • Avoid sticky starch foods such as crisps, which may get stuck in your teeth and boost levels of bacteria in your mouth • Watch what you drink – fizzy drinks and fruit juices can cause as much damage as sugary foods • Chew sugar-free gum to encourage the production of saliva after eating, preventing the build up of plaque

Bonding is the application of a tooth-colored composite resin (plastic) to repair a decayed, chipped, fractured or discolored tooth. Unlike veneers, which are manufactured in a laboratory and require a customized mold to achieve a proper fit, bonding can be done in a single visit. The procedure is called bonding because the material bonds to the tooth. *From £65 per tooth. Can go up to £400 per tooth, depending on the severity of the damage. After the examination, your dentist will give you the exact price.

A dental crown is an artificial cap that’s fitted on a damaged tooth to give a natural appearance and protect the remaining tooth structure. Commonly used on broken or weakened teeth, the finished cap comes in a variety of materials and can be used in any part of the mouth. Porcelain and metal bonded crowns are the most common type due to their strength and reliability. Often used in the molar region, these bonded caps are created with a metal alloy thimble, which is veneered with porcelain to create an accurate finish. Porcelain and gold crowns are the strongest option, created from a gold thimble with a porcelain veneer. The inherent strength of the gold base ensures the finished product is long lasting and ideal for use at the back of the mouth.
