Say goodbye to hefty one-off dental outgoings and hello to manageable and accessible dental care. Did we mention discounted treatments outside of our Hygienist and regular check-ups? Sounds good!

At Kingfisher Dental Practice, we understand that scheduling conflicts can occur. Here’s what you can expect if your regular dentist isn’t available:

1. Alternative Appointments: We will offer you the earliest possible appointment with your regular dentist. If this isn’t suitable, we will try to find a time that fits your schedule.
2. Another Experienced Dentist: Our practice has a team of skilled and experienced dentists. If you need immediate attention, we can arrange for you to see another dentist who will have access to your dental records and history to ensure continuity of care.
3. Emergency Care: For urgent dental issues, we will ensure you receive prompt attention, even if it means seeing a different dentist. Your dental health is our top priority.
4. Follow-Up: If you are treated by a different dentist, your regular dentist will be informed of the treatment provided and any necessary follow-up will be arranged.

We aim to make sure you always receive the care you need, when you need it.

Choosing the right toothbrush is essential for maintaining good oral hygiene. Here are a few tips:

1. Soft Bristles: Opt for a toothbrush with soft bristles to avoid damaging your gums and enamel.
2. Size: Choose a toothbrush head size that fits comfortably in your mouth and can easily reach all areas, round heads on electric brushes are the best option.
3. Manual vs Electric: Both can be effective. Electric toothbrushes may provide a more thorough clean with less effort.
4. Comfortable Handle: Ensure the handle is comfortable to hold and easy to manoeuvre.

Regularly replace your toothbrush every 3 months or sooner if the bristles are frayed.

Please call us on 01527 550995 or send an email to info@kingfisherdental.co.uk if you have an inquiry.

When the practice is closed and you need emergency dental assistance, please call NHS 111.
