Growing teeth need extra special care and attention to ensure they remain healthy and cavity free. Teeth first start to appear at around six months old and this is the ideal time to introduce your child to the dentist. Visiting our friendly and five star rated practice in Reading from an early age will help them feel relaxed about coming to see us and will encourage them to develop a positive attitude towards having dental treatment. We teach handy tooth brushing techniques, including how to use dental cleaning tools, and offer diet tips so youngsters are armed with the knowledge to look after their own teeth throughout childhood and beyond. We can also apply fissure sealants and fluoride varnishes to protect young teeth against decay as soon as they start to emerge. As your child gets older, we will continue to keep a close eye on their teeth and address any problems that may need treatment. You can help take care of little teeth at home by encouraging tooth cleaning from the moment your child?s teeth start to appear and supervising brushing until they are old enough to clean their teeth effectively on their own.

Welcome to Rob Pittack Dental Implants.

If you're looking for a highly experienced implant surgeon in the Mill Hill East, North London and surrounding areas, then you have come to the right place. I specialise in single missing tooth replacement, multiple teeth implants, complex whole mouth restorations and implant retained dentures. Quality Dental Care Each patient’s mouth structure and bone density is very individual so an implant treatment must be carefully planned. I keep my patients fully informed about their dental implant procedure and share information about alternative options they may have before they get their beautiful smile restored.

The simple way to straight and even teeth Everyone would like to have straight, evenly spaced teeth, and not simply for aesthetic reasons. Crooked teeth or ones with gaps between them can also be more difficult to keep clean and may also be at greater risk of wear and damage when the bite doesn’t meet correctly. But there is a solution – orthodontics. This is the use of braces to straighten and re-align teeth and is usually carried out on teenage patients, although more and more adults are also choosing to have it done today. Your dentist will be able to let you know if this is a procedure that could be right for you and, if it is, will put together a personalised treatment plan for you. In most cases, the realignment process is a gradual one involving several stages as your teeth are gently eased back into line. If you’re concerned that it will involve wearing an unsightly and uncomfortable series of braces through the process, don’t be. These days advances in orthodontics mean that braces are more discreet and lightweight than ever, and many are even clear making them difficult to spot.
