Every dental check-up includes a checklist of these factors which our dentists will ensure have been revised. Whilst going through the list our professionals will ask you about your cleaning routines and oral hygiene so that they can advise further support where needed. Occasionally a hygienist is recommended to help you achieve a deep clean for a healthier glean!

A discussion around your X-rays will follow at the end of your check-up, and the Dentist will go through anything that might be of a concern. Should there be anything that arises, he or she will recommend several options available, and will also advise the best course of treatment using pain-free dentistry. At this point, our friendly reception here at Eastbourne surgery will be able to provide a treatment plan and estimate for you.

However, it might be the case that you don’t need any treatment, in which case we won’t need to see you until another six months’ time for your next check-up. If you need any support within that time our dentists will always be on hand to provide support and advice, no matter the size of your query. Remember we are just a call away!

Nervous Patients And Pain Free Dentistry

Local Anaesthetic

Before any injection, numbing cream will be applied to the gums. The anaesthetic is is warmed to body temperature so that there is no stinging sensation. The numbing process is carried out in stages, where a professional checks to make sure the area is fully numb before moving on to the procedure.

 

The Wand: More Comfort, Less Anxiety

The Wand is the market leader in pain-free dentistry, significantly more comfortable than the syringe and greatly reduces anxiety.
