Have people assumed that 2012 has been a bad year? Do you often get asked to cheer up despite feeling happy? Do you fear the camera at events and occasions? If this sounds like scenarios that are all too common then we know there may be something deep rooted that resists you to show how happy you actually are – your teeth.

A New Year often means a new start which is why many people set resolutions to achieve what they want for the next 12 months. But rather than giving up before January ends, why not make your New Year something to smile about with help from our orthodontists. We will help you on your journey to live your life again and show everyone just how happy you are.

Whether you are worried about crooked teeth, gaps or have previously tried braces and given up, we have a variety of methods which are proven to show results. These treatments are available to read about via the orthodontists page on our website and also the previous posts we have written, however we’re more than happy to discuss this with you directly over the phone or face to face.

We don’t believe in tooth extraction as a solution and this is only performed as a last resort, therefore you can rest assured alternative treatments that suit you and your needs are discussed. With so many different options available, we hope to provide you with an experience that is calm, informative and assuring as we know many people become anxious when it comes to dental work.

All of our staff at Nelson Road are specialists in recognising the signs someone is unhappy with their smile and we’re here to set things straight – not just your teeth. Get in touch with us via one the various methods on our website and we’ll be more than happy to support your New Year’s resolution for 2013.

Many people dread this time of year. Not because of the cost of presents or the chore of trying to find a new outfit but because they don’t want to be caught on one of the many cameras that capture what should be a joyous occasion. If this sounds like you, and your smile is getting in the way of you having a good time, then we at Nelson Road Dental are here to help with our experienced orthodontists.

Although there are many children and teenagers that have corrective methods to improve crooked teeth, we understand that some people go into adulthood still feeling conscious of their smile and take the steps to improve this in later years.

We also understand that what often puts many people off is the thought of having metal braces that are not very subtle. Fortunately, advances in the dental industry have meant that there are now alternatives to metal braces which may appeal to a wider market; here are just some of the options available.

Invisalign:

This is a very popular choice for many adults and late teens because Invisalign braces are subtle and don’t require the need for wires or brackets. The other benefit is that these use slight pressure to move your teeth into position, making it a more comfortable way to get your desired look.

Six Month Smile:

Although not suitable for everyone, we undertake a consultation with each patient to see whether they qualify for the six month smile. If this is the case, the method is painless and if started now, you’ll be seeing results by the summer.

Damon Brace:

This brace is the newest addition to the family of conventional braces. Fitted on the outside, the design is sleek creating less friction and showing results in less time than the conventional brace we all know. Suitable for particularly crooked teeth, this is the method if you want quicker results.

We hope this helps you in finding a solution to fixing your smile. We at Nelson Road avoid extractions at any cost so will discuss other options with you so if this a matter you are wishing to discuss, please don’t hesitate to get in touch via the details on our contact us page.

A smile expresses happiness, joy and excitement and a lot of people say that the thing that first attracted them to their partner was their smile; what a wonderful thing a smile is. What happens then when you’re so insecure about smile that you actively try to hide it? Whether your teeth have been discoloured from years of coffee, tea or smoking or your teeth are misaligned, feeling that your smile should be covered up means that you can never fully enjoy social situations and make the most of life. Here at Nelson Road Dental we believe that everyone should have a smile that lights up the room but most importantly, a smile that you’re happy to show to the world and thanks to cosmetic dentistry in Kent that can be a reality sooner than you’d think.

Cosmetic dentistry is a term that encompasses a range of procedures to address a variety of problems which includes teeth whitening, veneers and gum lifts. So what are the benefits of the cosmetic dentistry options you have here at Nelson Road Dental?

Luckily, here at Nelson Road Dental we use the latest in dentistry technology and as a result, you can see impressive changes in no time at all. Our smile strips for example are an efficient, painless and stress-free way to whiten your teeth; simply wear the smile strips, which contain the right amount of whitening gel, for half an hour every day for 14 days and you’ll begin to see results after only 3 days.

We all want a beautiful smile and brilliantly white teeth, but it isn’t always easy to keep out teeth sparkling white ourselves. That’s why many people are turning to teeth whitening services to get that much sought after, perfect smile.

Here at Nelson Road Dental we specialise in teeth whitening, we offer affordable and safe solutions to brighten your smile. One of the services we have to offer is Smilestrips, this is an efficient and painless way of teeth whitening. Smilestrips are whitening gel strips that can be moulded over your teeth. All you need to do is wear the strips for at least 30 minutes a day for at least 14 days, many people see results in as little as 3 days.

Once you have brilliantly white teeth it’s important that you keep them looking great, here are some handy tips to help you maintain that stunning smile:

-    Eat hard fruit and veg like celery, carrots and apples. Eating them helps scrape away plaque which makes teeth look dull
-    Try to avoid drinking tea, coffee, cola and red wine; they are renowned for staining your teeth. You also need to be careful when eating berries like cherries, raspberries and blackberries as these can also affect the colour of your teeth. Make sure you brush your teeth after eating them
-    No Smoking! Smoking is not only harmful to your health but the nicotine can penetrate the enamel and leave brown stains on your teeth that aren’t easy to remove
-    Visit your dentist regularly to keep your smile healthy and white
-    Make sure your toothpaste or your mouthwash contain fluoride which helps prevent decay
-    Don’t scrub your teeth too hard! Make sure your toothbrush has soft bristles – brushing too hard can erode the enamel on your teeth

A smile is one of the most important communication techniques we have as human beings. It can be used as a greeting, an indicator of our mood and a great way to make a good first impression, but when there is something wrong with our teeth it cannot just strip us of this essential tool but also our confidence. At Nelson Road Dental we have a fully qualified and experienced team who are passionate about putting the sparkle back in the nation’s smiles, so if you’re looking for a private dentist in Chatham or the surrounding areas, get in touch.

Cosmetic Dentistry

We understand that invasive dental work isn’t for everybody, and in these cases cosmetic dentistry is a great way of delivering great looking results. From teeth whitening and porcelain veneers to Lumineers and no-prep veneers, the creative flair of our dentistry team can take years off your appearance and help you to feel more like yourself again.

Implant Dentistry

If you’re fed up of not being able to enjoy all of your favourite food or eat out in a restaurant with confidence because of dentures, then implant dentistry is for you. Implants are titanium rods and act as a replacement for the root which then supports a crown to produce a jaw-droppingly natural aesthetic.

Dr Mohsin Uddin is the youngest ever clinician to be accepted onto the FGDP Diploma in Implant Dentistry, so you can rest assured that you are in safe hands. Single, multiple and immediate implants are all available, so give us a call to discuss your options with us further.

Loose dentures, especially your lower dentures, can be a real problem when they’re not properly supported. Your lower dentures experience a lot more movement than your upper dentures as they are required to chew and talk; the lower ridge is also prone to ‘shrinkage’ and food can be trapped underneath your dentures. As a result of this, a lot of people find their dentures uncomfortable and impractical. Fortunately, here at Nelson Road Dental we offer dental implants Rochester, Gillingham, Chatham and other areas that are fitted by Dr. Mohsin Uddin to support your dentures in order to get you back to your usual self.

We realise that a trip to the dentist isn’t on everyone’s list of favourite things to do and we know how important it is for you to be able to trust your dentist. By having your dental implants fitted at Nelson Road Dental, you will be the save hands of Dr. Mohsin Uddin; an exceptionally well trained dentist that holds a FGDP diploma in Implant Dentistry that is recognised by the General Dental Council as the ‘gold standard’ of implant training.

The procedure of fitting your dental implants is carried out under local anaesthetic and is very similar to having a tooth taken out. It is a highly successful procedure with a success rate of 95% and this success rate will only continue to rise as technology and equipment is consistently improving. Our commitment is to providing you with a professional, friendly and quality service to make your trips to the dentist as stress-free as possible so you can get on with enjoying your life instead of worrying about your dentures.

Dental implants can improve your quality of life as you’ll finally feel comfortable enough in your dentures to chew, talk, and smile with complete confidence.

Virtually anyone can have dental implants Gillingham if they require them, and if after a thorough consultation with Nelson Road Dental’s highly qualified expert Dr. Mohsin Uddin they are in fact deemed to be for you, your mouth and the rest of your life will benefit from advantages such as:

A Mouth that is Closely Restored to its Natural State

If you have lost teeth or require them to be replaced by an implant, you will be hoping to regain the mouth you once had, with healthy, strong and fully functioning teeth. Dental implants Rochester are highly advanced in that they even replace the root – offering the closest replication to real teeth available. Allowing for comfortable biting and chewing that looks and feels natural.

A Healthy Facial Structure

Loss of teeth will regularly cause bone resorption which in turn can alter the overall makeup of your facial structure. Dental implants will prevent this from happening and keep it intact – making them essential if for whatever reason you have lost many of your teeth, as the lower one-third of the face can collapse if implants are not used.

Enhanced Oral Hygiene

Other replacement methods require additional cleaning methods which can become a pain and remind you that there is, or has been a problem with your teeth. Dental implants Chatham can be cleaned just like normal teeth, allowing for a more convenient clean.

A Confident Result

Before having the implants, the idea of photo booth hire may have brought on a wave of self-consciousness, but the result which combines many more benefits will add up to a greater quality of life with a confident smile and no need to try and cover up your teeth. Here at Nelson Road Dental, we pride ourselves on offering a service that makes each and every patient feel comfortable, so contact us for a consultation about having dental implants Gillingham to find out all you need to know.
