Benefits of regular visits

A dental examination is not only important for your teeth, but also for the prevention and early detection of serious health issues, like gum disease and oral cancer. When you suffer from dental phobia or anxiety, you will naturally avoid visiting the dentist until you have a problem. Unfortunately, many dental problems only become symptomatic when they are very advanced. By waiting until a tooth breaks or starts to hurt, you will find the procedure required to fix your tooth is very involved and costly. Most dental problems, such as tooth decay and gum disease, can be stopped or managed if the issue is detected and treated in early stages. Periodic dental visits are also critical when it comes to the early detection of oral cancer. If detected in its initial stages, in many cases oral cancer is completely curable.

Parents with dental phobia

As a parent with dental phobia, you can prevent your child from developing a fear of the dentist by not letting your own fear become theirs. Avoid putting fear into your child about visiting the dentist and never use coming to the dentist as a threat. Try your best to make dental visits a routine part of their lives, even if you avoid the dentist yourself. You can help your child avoid invasive dental treatment by practising good hygiene and dietary habits and by taking them to the dentist for routine checkups. If your child does require treatment, remember that modern dentistry has come a long way and restorative treatments are more comfortable than before and are most often completely pain free.

Had my front teeth fixed at Greenland dental, best experience, Dr Catherine was very gentle, did not feel any pain at all. Her assistant Caitlyn was very professional and reassuring. Now I can smile with confidence again!

Chantelle Wardrop

I have just had my first appointment at Greenland Dental. WOW! What a great team. From the reception staff to treating staff, they were all such a pleasure.
Dr Catherine was very thorough, not only working on the tooth I was there to receive treatment on, but identifying some other problematic teeth and providing options for future treatment. I will definitely be returning for future procedures.
