Healthy mouth, healthy body

Covid-19 has highlighted the importance of our health, say Edinburgh dentists

“Healthy mouth, healthy body” is an old saying that has never been more important, explains Edinburgh dentist Chris.

A large proportion of the people who contacted Cherrybank Dental Spa during lockdown with dental emergencies had not visited a dentist for more than a year. We always stress the importance of regular dental health examinations, so that any issues can be spotted early – before they become painful and more difficult to treat.

Dental health and fighting Covid-19

New research published in the British Dental Journal recently by Dr V. Samsoon linked poor oral health and coronavirus. It explained that our mouths include a healthy amount of bacteria, called microbiome, that can normally be exchanged between our mouth and our lungs.

When we have poor oral health, pathogenic bacteria (bad bacteria that cause disease) start to accumulate in our mouths and destroy that healthy balance. These bacteria can also be breathed into our lungs.  

One way these bacteria make us more vulnerable is by increasing our susceptibility to viral infections. Furthermore, when we are not healthy or we are infected by a viral infection they start to proliferate and create what is called a bacteria superinfection. This further compromises our already burdened immune system and in that way creates severe complications like pneumonia or acute respiratory syndrome.

Not seen a dentist for more than 12 months?

We know that it has been difficult to keep on top of regular dental visits over the past few months due to the government’s decision to close dental practices. Cherrybank Dental Spa is delighted to have reopened and we have heavily invested in anti-virus protection, on top of our usual strict decontamination measures.

If you are searching for reassuringly safe dental care, contact us today. We look forward to welcoming you and your family to our dental practice in Edinburgh.

My first filling for 40 years today so I was understandably a little anxious. Rami and Olivia put me at my ease and I was well looked after throughout the procedure. Experienced no pain at all and the job was completed swiftly and superbly. A well spotted early intervention by Rami at my recent regular examination that no doubt will have saved me some pain and perhaps more extensive work in the future. Thank you again!

I can’t thank Rami and the staff at Cherrybank enough for the treatment i received! From the warm welcome I got from the ladies on reception to the professional pain free treatment from Rami. I had multiple silver fillings replaced with composite fillings to make my teeth look more natural again and the results are everything I could have imagined! Thanks rami and Olivia! Great work!

Delighted with my treatment and in particular my dental bridge. Rammy is extremely professional and provides a detailed explanation on what is happening. All treatment pain free and dare I say almost enjoyable!! Thanks also to his dental nurses who are very reassuring and professional.

Rami was incredibly reassuring and helpful, and definitely put me at ease during my visit. He explained the procedure in terms I could understand, and made sure that I was comfortable the whole way through. His assistant Olivia was also very helpful and gentle. All in all, a star team, and I would certainly come back again in the future, thanks so much for your patience and for putting me at ease.

I can not recommend this place enough. The staff are all amazing and so friendly, the help they offer for understanding and comfort just makes the experience all the better.As someone who has never liked the dentist before I can honestly say after today I dont have the same anxieties about booking further appointments or going. Their statement of pain free dentistry is true ... I had multiple drills in my mouth today and the most I felt was a bit of pressure here and there or slight vibrations. They make the appointment all about you, with amazing small added touches like massage pads, head phones and my favourite was the lip balm - such a small thing but who doesn't get dry lips at the dentist!! If you're looking for a new dentist who actually cares about and not just your teeth then give these guys a call.
