Gum disease is a chronic disease that tends to catch people off guard. Bleeding is often the first sign of gum disease. It is important to be diligent with your oral hygiene. During our comprehensive examinations, we assess the condition of your gum. Discuss in detail your current oral hygiene and provide you with a tailored oral hygiene techniques and instructions in order to help you achieve the goal you always wanted.
Correct oral hygiene can help maintain gum disease, be it gingivitis or periodontitis; decreases sensitivity; prevent decay as well as minimise bad breath with Victoria Street Dental.
Sensitivity
Sensitivity is a rising problem for many people. Teeth can become sensitive due to loss of tooth structure causing the underlying tooth structure to be exposed (the dentine part of the tooth). This can be the product of incorrect oral hygiene techniques or involuntary clenching or grinding.
Gum disease is also a major cause of teeth sensitivity, as the gum recedes, the dentine will be exposed which in turns causes sensitivity. From our comprehensive exams we provide to every single person, our dentists can identify the cause of the sensitivity. Provide you with the necessary information to help you combat the sensitivity as well as advising you on specific products that you can use for long-term success.
We are here to help you maintain your smile for the rest of your life.
Our Practice
Being a boutique clinic, we pride ourselves in getting to know each patient on a personal basis. For new patients we like to have a longer initial appointment in order to get to know your needs and understand what you want to achieve. We then conduct a thorough check up, not only checking the teeth but all the surrounding structures as well. Dental radiographs that are necessary are then taken to give our dentists view of the underlying structures that the naked eye can’t see. This extra knowledge will help our dentists develop a comprehensive treatment plan that is specifically planed for your needs and we work through each stage together as a team to achieve the result in the end. Giving you the smile you always wanted.
