Dental implants are a popular and highly successful dental procedure that can help restore your teeth and your smile. People often opt for this treatment if they have lost teeth due to gum disease or trauma.

Historically, patients did not have much colour choice when it came to get fillings, as the only available option was silver amalgam fillings. However, over the last few decades a new type of white composite filling has become more popular and offers more variety for patients.

Fillings are used to repair a cavity in your tooth so that you can avoid further damage to the tooth and gums, which can cause decay to spread. The procedure is painless and can usually be conducted in one session with local anaesthetic.

A common habit associated with daily brushing is rinsing your mouth with water as soon as you’ve finished the task. Brushing your teeth usually involves, applying toothpaste, brushing for 2 or more minutes and then using water to help remove the excess toothpaste in your mouth.
