FAQ's

How do I prevent tooth decay?

Brush your teeth twice a day with fluoride toothpaste and use floss daily to remove plaque and food particles from between the teeth. Regular dental check-ups and cleanings are essential for early detection and the treatment of any dental issues. Limiting your sugar intake can also help.
How do I prevent gum disease?

You can prevent gum disease in the same way you prevent tooth decay; through daily brushing and flossing, alongside regular dental check ups.
What are the symptoms of tooth decay?

One of the most common symptoms is tooth sensitivity, especially to hot or cold temperatures. This sensitivity occurs when the enamel becomes thin and exposes the underlying dentin. Another symptom is toothache, which can range from mild to severe pain. Discoloured teeth or bad breath may also signal that tooth decay is present.
What are the symptoms of gum disease?

Gums that are inflamed or bleeding may indicate that you are suffering from gum disease. Persistent bad breath, gum recession, loose teeth, and changes in your bite can indicate advanced stages of gum disease.
What are the signs of oral cancer that a hygienist looks for?

One of the most common warning signs is the presence of white or red patches on the tongue, gums, or other soft tissues in the mouth. These patches may be accompanied by pain or tenderness. Sores or ulcers that do not heal within 2 weeks may also be cause for concern.
What happens during a a healthy mouth review appointment with the hygienist?

Our hygienist will examine your mouth, checking for any signs of gum disease, cavities, or other oral health issues. You may have a professional cleaning treatment, which will remove any plaque or tartar buildup. If X-rays or other diagnostic tests to identify any underlying issues, these will also be undertaken.

“I hadn’t been to the dentist for a long time and to be honest never really trusted them. I went to Viva Dental after being recommended by a friend. I found all the staff exceptionally friendly and they really put me at ease, I now like going for my 6 month check ups with the dentist and can safely say that they have gained a customer for life!!!”
