Sensitive and painful teeth

Sensitivity or pain can be triggered by a number of things, including hot and cold food or drinks, and also has a number of causes.

Sensitivity to cold can be caused by decay, receding gums, or by tooth brush abrasion wearing away your tooth’s hard protective coating of enamel. While special toothpastes or mouthwashes for sensitive teeth may help, you should also visit us as you may need a filling or treatment for gum disease.

Pain and/or sensitivity to hot and cold are usually a sign that your tooth is decayed, or that the nerve within it is irritated. You may need a filling or root canal treatment.

Pain on biting can have a number of causes. An existing filling may need adjusting, or you may have a cracked tooth which needs attention. Alternatively you may have an infection, which could need root canal treatment. Again we would suggest an early visit to the practice.

Dentist (Assim) is a highly skilled dentist who explains procedures in an empathetic manner listening to any concerns. At age 79 I would say that Assim’s skill means the dentistry is the best I’ve experienced. The Dental Nurse was also efficient, kind and quite caring.

Just very professional all round

It was in every detail. From the friendliness at reception, to the minimal wait time, to the knowledge of the dentist and hygienist, even the equipment appeared to be advanced. It was a refreshing experience. I especially appreciated the hygienist nurse checking on me and reminding me to ‘take a deep breath’. I will be bringing my family here from now on.The only negative was the price was much higher - but definitely worth every penny and doesn’t put me off one bit!

The receptionist was very welcoming.My dentist was very thorough explaining the procedure every step of the way. As a nervous patient I was put completely at ease and will have no issues at all about returning for another appointment.

From walking into the practice, I was dealt with a very professional but friendly welcome. I had never met the hygienist before, she made me very relaxed and explained every procedure as she went along.As I am in the middle of a treatment plan and my next appointments were re-confirmed as I was leaving the practice. As a nervous patient all the staff make sure I am put at ease.
