When was the last time you visited our dentist in Aberdeenshire? Here at Oldmeldrum Dental, we understand that day-to-day living can get in the way. However, taking care of your teeth is one of the most important things in life and we’re always available to offer a helping hand. We offer more treatments than you’re probably aware of, so maybe that is why you haven’t stopped by yet! If you aren’t suffering from a nagging toothache that makes it hard for you to do anything else, the likelihood is that you haven’t given us a second thought, but did you know that we can tackle other problems, too? From missing teeth to a misaligned smile, we treat many conditions, our treatments are vast and wide.

In this short article, our dentist in Aberdeenshire will discuss just 4 of the reasons that you should pop into our dental practice, highlighting the varying problems that we can help relieve.

Bad breath

Did you know that consistent bad breath can be a symptom of an extremely serious dental problem? Despite bad breath being extremely common, it can also be a sign that you’re in need of a visit to our dentist in Aberdeenshire! During an appointment with us, we’ll discuss your dental history in depth to see if there are any other problems that we should be concerned about. We’ll then examine your mouth thoroughly to get a clear idea of what we’re dealing with. If you smoke or often consume coffee or foods with a strong odour, then that could just be the problem. We’ll want to make sure, though, as it can be a sign of problems within your throat, nose or infections in your lungs and stomach. If you need tips to improve your dental hygiene, we come well equipped with suggestions and recommedations.

Misaligned teeth

We understand how frustrating it can be when your teeth aren’t completely straight. It might be that you take extremely good care of your teeth and stick to a well thought out dental hygiene schedule, but unfortunately, no amount of flossing will straighten your teeth. We can, though! Have you heard of invisible braces yet? As an adult, this orthodontic treatment can give you straight teeth without the embarrassment that sometimes comes with metal braces. They will straighten your teeth discreetly and over time, meaning you can get the smile of your dreams without disrupting your day-to-day life.

Missing teeth

If you’re missing teeth, it is likely that the way you eat, talk and hold yourself have been impacted. A smile is an extremely important feature, and not feeling happy or confident enough to smile as you please is upsetting! With our dental implant options, you can have new, artificial teeth that look exactly like your real ones and allow you to smile with all the confidence in the world.

Discoloured teeth

Teeth whitening is a simple and straightforward process. If your teeth have become discoloured, our at-home teeth whitening options are convenient and might be exactly what you need. We also offer in-office whitening, which can often be completed in one session, lifting the shade of your teeth until you’re satisified!
