Along with Align Technology, we are delighted to support Operation Smile UK. Align UK is taking on the challenge of raising  £50,000 to support the work of Operation Smile

Operation Smile revolutionized cleft surgery globally in 1982. With nearly four decades of experience as one of the largest surgical volunteer-based nonprofits, Operation Smile staff, its private-public partnerships and thousands of volunteers have improved the health and dignity of patients with cleft conditions, helping them to better breathe, eat, speak and live lives of greater quality and confidence.

“Every three minutes a child is born with a cleft lip or palate. Cleft is the most common craniofacial abnormality (problems of the skull and face) which babies can be born with.”

We loved Adam’s reaction to seeing his new smile revealed after a period of wearing Fixed braces. Watch the video below.

“That’s just crazy – they don’t even look like my teeth, they’re just so amazing. Thank you so much”

Are you looking to get your teeth straightened?

We have a number of options for teeth straightening for both adults and children – including clear braces and Invisalign. Get in touch to arrange a consultation.

Sara Hurley, Chief Dental officer for England, has recommended that infants should visit the dentist when their first teeth emerge, which can be at around at six months.  These early appointments should be routine pleasant experiences in which the dentist checks the milk teeth are coming through properly as well as giving advice on diet and brushing teeth. The report is part of a drive by the NHS to try and reduce high rates of tooth extractions among pre-school children.

The recommendations have been backed by the British Society of Paediatric Dentistry and NHS England which have launched the ‘Dental Check by One‘ campaign, however, there will be no extra funding made available to pay for the proposed improvements.

The Report findings include:

• A quarter of five-year-olds have tooth decay
• Hurley is asking England’s 22,000 NHS dentists to see an additional four children under the age of two over the next year
• Part of the NHS England and Department of Health campaign will be interventions in 13 local authority areas considered to be of high priority for childhood tooth decay
• Only 3% of babies were taken to the dentist before their first birthday and less than 12% of children attend before their second birthday
• A separate analysis by the Royal College of Surgeons Faculty of Dental Surgery found that 80% of children aged between one and two had not visited an NHS dentist in the past year

Free Child Checkups at WeLoveTeeth

At WeLoveTeeth, we offer free checkups to children aged under 12 when an adult also books an appointment. These appointments will allow your children to get familiar with the surroundings of a dental practice and in our experience, the vast majority of children will not require any treatment at all. These sessions are an opportunity for us to educate and provide advice for parents on brushing, nutrition and oral hygiene as well as providing tactics to help your children brush effectively.

Whether you’re an existing patient and would like to book an appointment or a new patient interested in our services, please get in touch and we would be delighted to hear from you 🙂

WeLoveTeeth has recently invested in the CEREC system which allows us to produce ceramic dental restoration using advanced computer software in a single  visit to the practice. 

CEREC (Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics) is a dental restoration device that allows us to produce ceramic dental restorations using advanced computer software in just one visit to WeLoveTeeth. We can now prepare restorations such as crowns, veneers, onlays, and inlays using different types of ceramic material while you wait.

We know the feeling … You have a hectic week ahead and barely enough time to squeeze in a visit to the dentist. The last thing you want to hear is there are no appointments available. That is why we have invested in a fabulous new treatment room.

It’s not just full of the latest technology like Airflow, Digital X-rays and Laser Dentistry.  The extra space means we can offer more appointment times when you really want them.

WeLoveTeeth is open from early until late, six days (soon to be seven) a week. So why not check your diary and see when you can fit us in?

Jeffry Gubbay, a criminal barrister had never been happy with his smile. He had always avoided orthodontics for a number of reasons including the cost for his parents, time out from studying and his own fears. Fortunately for him, he was lucky enough to chat with an honest friend who recommended him towards Dr Paula Brennan.

Paula carefully put together a treatment plan in three stages. First came Six Month Smiles, the latest way to quickly and safely move teeth with clear braces. This was followed by Cosmetic Bonding, to shape individual teeth and finally Enlighten teeth whitening. Enlighten is the only whitening system in the world to guarantee VITA shade B1 on every case irrespective of the starting shade. Throughout the treatment Jeff was able to eat, drink and crucially speak as well as ever.

People don’t like the sound of snoring or anyone knowing they do. The problem can be more than embarrassing however.

Snoring may be a symptom of sleep apnea. And that is a severe condition requiring immediate treatment.

The good news is that our dentists are able to help determine whether you could be suffering from sleep apnea and offer simple solutions that prevent both the clinical and social problems associated with snoring.

The American Association of Orthodontics recommends all children receive an orthodontic screening by the age of 7. That’s for a very good reason as permanent teeth begin to come in at around 6 or 7 years old.

As the bones in these children are still growing it is an ideal time to evaluate whether orthodontic treatment may be required then or in the future. Even before permanent teeth are visible it is possible to help avoid overcrowding using a palatal expander. Many parents (and their children) prefer this option to removing teeth.

Based in Weybridge, Surrey, WeLoveTeeth offers early orthodontic evaluations for children of all ages, not just teenagers.

That’s the surprising result of a BUPA survey of over 2000 people. Two thirds of respondents considered a good smile to be ‘an important asset’ at work.

And as for management,  54% stated that one of the best motivation techniques was a genuine smile. 42% even thought that people with healthy-looking teeth were more authoritative.

If you don’t like your smile then don’t put up with it any more. After all it could be holding your career back. Give us a call today on 01932 70 1234.

Summer already feels like a distant memory for most parents. The rush is on to get their children settled into another academic year. New schools and colleges, teachers and friends. It’s no surprise that there isn’t much time available for mundane chores like a dental checkup. And it’s made even harder when many dental practices refuse to open at a suitable time for their customers.

WeLoveTeeth takes a very different approach. Open every Saturday (Sunday from 2016) and appointments after the school day has ended.

We also offer outstanding value for money, with a free checkup for any child if their mum or dad has one at the same time.

Starting a new school year is frantic enough already, the last thing anyone needs is extra work finding a dentist to look after their children’s teeth!
