Poor dental health risks

Is fear making you neglect your teeth?

Corporate dental insurers Unum Dental carried out some research last year that revealed some interesting facts. According to a survey of more than 2,000 private sector employees, more than a fifth (24%) of British workers say that a fear of feeling pain or discomfort is the reason they avoid the dentist.

Women were found to be more afraid, with over a quarter (27%) declaring that they put off the recommended two dental health examinations a year out of fear of pain, compared to 22% of men.

Poor dental health risks

Poor dental health is linked to heart disease, bacterial lung infections, premature births, diabetes and strokes, meaning regular visits for dental health reviews are vital to maintaining good general health and dental wellbeing.

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 to help put your mind at rest. 

Looking after anxious patients

Please don’t neglect your dental wellbeing because of dental phobia. At Cherrybank Dental Spa we find that even with the most nervous of patients, all they need is time and kindness. Therefore, our principal dentist  Chris, ensures our appointments are calm, unhurried and welcoming.

If you are anxious about your dental or hygiene appointments, try contacting us first for a chat.

We encourage dental phobic patients to pop in, meet our team and have a look around our Edinburgh dental practice before going anywhere near a dental chair. But don’t just take our word for it, here are some testimonials from our patients:

“Cherrybank Dental Spa is amazing. I would recommend this to anyone especially if you’re nervous of going to the dentist.

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.
