A report has revealed that nearly half of five year olds in Fulham and Hammersmith have tooth decay. The report, which was released by the Children's Oral Health Task Group, showed that 45 percent of five year olds in the borough have decay, a figure which is significantly higher than the London average, which currently stands at 33 percent. Nadeev Pooni, from the Central London NHS Trust, said that it is very important that parents take responsibility for their children's oral health and encourage them to adopt good habits from a very early age.

The Children's Oral Health Taskforce is a new group, which was formed with the aim of identifying and addressing causes of poor oral health. The report made a number of recommendations to try and improve standards of oral health among children, which included campaigning for a consultation on adding fluoride to the water supplies in the area. The most important method of prevention is to ensure regular dental examinations and hygiene treatment. Diet is also crucial and try to avoid sugary snacks and drinks during the day. It is best to keep these treats at mealtimes only. Children of registered parents are seen for an initial consultation free of charge. 

We provide only the best treatment and materials for children. We do not use amalgam metal fillings and have a very strong emphasis on prevention of disease.

We are very pleased to announce a walk in dental hygiene service every Tuesday with immediate effect. There is no need to make a dental appointment, please either walk in or call us to book your dental hygiene appointment. On your visit, an oral health assessment will be carried out by a dentist to ensure all the correct protocols are followed.

Your visit will include a full mouth cleaning and jet air polishing for a sparkling finish! If you have not seen a dental hygienist for a while, have stained, yellow teeth and feel the fur building up please call us today. Regular dental hygiene is one of the most crucial aspects of preventing dental disease and now there is no excuse. Of course, we advise that a full dental examination is carried out and after the assessment we will advise you accordingly.

Walk in dental hygiene every Tuesday, spread the word!

We strongly believe in non invasive techniques to enhance smiles. Long gone are the days when teeth needed to hacked away with destructive techniques to provide a new smile. Modern day dentistry encompasses minimally invasive techniques which require no needles, no drilling and no pain! For example, our case study below wanted to close the gaps between the teeth. They were told that porcelain veneers would be required, which involved removing all the tooth enamel and many thousands of pounds. 

However, our Principal Dentist Dr Nissit Patel advised another solution; composite bonding. This involved no drilling, no needles and was far more affordable. In addition, the maintenance is simple and cost effective. There really are no downsides.
