As the saying goes, prevention is better than cure. Our local dentist in Ashton Dr Ajanthan Anthonypillai is emphasizing regular dental check up for all our patients. Recently it has been extremely difficult to locate an NHS dentist. This is a worrying development. Regular dental check-ups can help catch problems early and prevent more serious issues from developing down the line. 

Additionally some  people put off going to the dentist until they have a problem that requires immediate attention. Dental emergency situations can be extremely painful and cause long term problems for the affected tooth. As usual prevention is the best cure. 

By visiting the dentist regularly, patients can ensure that any issues are caught early, when they are easier and less expensive to treat.

Regular dental check-ups also provide an opportunity for patients to receive a thorough cleaning and polish, many patients are surprised at how much better their teeth look and feel after a regular cleaning.

Schedule a regular check-up today and take the first step towards a healthier smile.
