Advice
Teeth need to be properly cared for during the teenage period.
Tooth erosion can result from fizzy, diet and
alcopop drinks.
Proper tooth brushing and flossing technique set the scene for good gum condition
in the future and helps avoid bad breath.

Treatment
A nice smile is important for good social relationships and to give confidence.
Many teenagers need tooth straightening to provide them with a good facial
profile as well as a pleasing smile and so this is a very easy time to wear
braces.
We are fortunate to have 2 consultant orthodontists Dr Robert Evans and Dr
Clare Nightingale.
Wisdom teeth can start to erupt during late teenage years and can be a source
of discomfort and swelling.
We have a surgical specialist to take care of any problems.
