Dental Health or Sky Plus Surrey?

Entertainment is fine,but your health is more important.

Cedar Dental is a private dental practice, this means we are often measured by how good we are as value for money or more simply put, by how affordable we are. The idea of regular private dental treatments to keep a mouth healthy is not a priority to some. This can be because it is not felt necessary or that they have access to an NHS service which meets their needs. I would like to speak to the former, dental health is not your priority.

Look after your Teeth and Gums or an X Box?

Many dental problems can be prevented. Even having a sportsguard can prevent many injuries but why do so many people only book a dentist when they are in pain? Could it be that they take their teeth for granted on only realise that something is needed to be done when they lie on the sofa in tears of agony? That could be it. Do they look at their monthly budget and decide to upgrade to the latest game console or new car? 

I appreciate that competing with huge sales and advertising budgets is a tough ask. We are a small business and do not have the funds to run a similar campaign that Sky has for example with their Sky Plus boxes. But the benefits of spending the equivalent to £14 per month on looking after your teeth is of more value to Call of Duty, in my opinion.

Dentistry is not fun.

I admit it. If you have a choice there could be a few things you could be doing that are more fun than a dental appointment. 

But it is crucial to you and your health

The reality is that if you do not look after your teeth you run the risk of tooth decay, gum disease, tooth loss, bad breath, mouth cancer, Heart disease, become increasingly self conscious about your appearance. In other words, forget what you may think about the superficial nature of cosmetic dentistry, think about the long term implications to you and your family's health.

At Cedar Dental in Surrey, we offer membership to people who wish to look after their mouth and to derive the health benefits from good dental health care.It may not be fun, but a clean and healthy mouth feels better and is better for you.

 

Best wishes
