Dentistry
This British Heart Week, we wanted to highlight the importance of your oral health on your whole body.
There is a strong relationship between your oral health and your overall wellness. Gum disease is linked to a wide range of illnesses including heart disease, diabetes, respiratory disease, osteoporosis and rheumatoid arthritis. The University of North Carolina School of Dentistry has found that people with gum disease are twice as likely as others to die from a heart attack and three times as likely to have a stroke.
Gum disease is a chronic inflammatory condition. The mouth is a point of entry for infection. Ongoing inflammation in your mouth allows bacteria to enter your bloodstream and travel to the arteries in the heart.
This doesn’t have to be as scary as it sounds. It can easily be avoided by a good everyday oral hygiene routine.
To make sure that your teeth and gums remain healthy, see your dentist every 6 months for a healthy mouth review and your hygienist regularly, who can give you tips on how to maintain your oral health at home.
Your oral hygiene routine will make sure that your teeth, mouth and gums are as healthy as possible, which in turn will help the rest of your body remains as healthy as possible.
50km… and counting! 🚲💪
Our Clinical Director, Dr Carol Somerville Roberts, has just completed her longest training ride yet — an incredible 50 kilometres — as she prepares for a life-changing charity cycle from the base of Kilimanjaro to the Ngorongoro Crater in February 2026.
Carol is taking on this huge challenge to raise funds for Bridge2Aid, a charity providing vital emergency dental care and training in Tanzania. The money raised will help run an outreach and training programme where eight Dental Therapists will be trained and around 2,000 people will receive essential dental treatment.
For someone who hasn’t been on a bike in years, months of training in all weathers is no small feat — and we couldn’t be more proud of her determination.
If you’d like to support Carol and help make a genuine difference to communities with little or no access to dental care, you can donate here:

Every donation, big or small, will have an immense impact.
Thank you for cheering her on! 💜
You were expecting a big before-and-after reveal, weren’t you? 😁
Here’s the truth: the best way to save money at the dentist is simple — floss! 🦷
A few seconds a day can help prevent costly treatments later.
