Don't Gamble On The Cost Of Your Dental Treatment This Year!!

Blossomfield Dental Plan.

The Loyalty Scheme That Is Designed

To Give YOU Peace Of Mind!!

 

2011 has started with an air of financial uncertainty and  cuts are being made which are affecting us all. Stress levels are very high and it is at this time you need to look after your general health so that you can sail through this difficult period with a clean bill of health.

Your mouth is the window to the overall health of your body. Early indicators of many diseases are obvious in the mouth and can be detected during routine dental examinations.

There is a growing body of evidence, supported by the British Dental Health Foundation, that there is a systemic link between oral health and overall health. Recent research has linked gum disease to heart disease, heart attacks, strokes, diabetes and in the case of pregnant women, giving birth to underweight babies. The message is that by keeping gum disease under control you can prevent it from developing into more serious general health conditions.

Preventative dentistry is the future. It is no longer a case of trouble shooting pain or advanced decay. Preventative dentistry is about maintaining good oral health for life.

By attending a routine dental examination every six months any early changes in the mouth can be detected and dealt with quickly and easily.

A dental examination is not just a "quick look at the teeth", it is far more thorough than that, it allows John or Marek to;

• Look for evidence of new decay
• Check your soft tissues for oral cancers
• Discuss with you any areas of sensitivity and discomfort
• Assess the stability of existing dental restorations
• Examine for signs of gum disease and gingivitis
• Discuss and advise on your dental hygiene, referring you to the dental hygienist if needed

During the examination you can also ask about any cosmetic treatments that are available to you. It has been proven that we gain a huge amount of confidence and self esteem by having a smile that we feel happy with, it doesn't have to be a perfect "Hollywood Smile", but just small changes can make a difference .Feel free to ask about the range of cosmetic treatments available.

We are well aware that dental treatment can be expensive and therefore can be pushed down the list of priorities but as you can see regular examinations and hygiene visits are extremely important, so we would like to help you maintain this level of care in a cost effective way.
