Bad teeth

Help, I’ve got bad teeth

People often feel that they have ‘bad teeth’, if this is you, we’ve put together the following information to help you understand a little more about what can be done to help.

Can ‘bad teeth’ be saved?

If you have a tooth that is causing you pain, you may be wondering if your tooth can be saved, or if having it removed is your only option. This will depend on the reason that the tooth is causing you pain. Often the tooth can be saved by your dentist, who may prescribe a filling, root canal treatment, or a course of antibiotics, the treatment will depend on the specific problem that tooth has.

What causes bad teeth in adults?

Cavities, which are as a result of decay or caries in your teeth, are permanently damaged areas of the hard surface of your teeth. These can become tiny openings or holes. These can be caused by a number of factors, including bacteria in your mouth, frequent snacking, sugary drinks and not cleaning your teeth regularly.

How do you fixed decayed teeth?

There are a number of options available to restore fixed teeth, your dentist will advise you which options are most suitable depending on your specific situation. They may suggest a filling, a crown (also known as a cap) or root canal treatment.

If you’ve never visited Evolve before, here’s a little look around.

We know that walking into a new dental practice can feel daunting, particularly if it’s been a while since your last appointment.

We’ve designed Evolve to feel calm, welcoming and a little different from what you might expect from a dental practice.

But the most important part isn’t the building. It’s how you’re made to feel when you’re here.

Come in, make yourself comfortable in our patient lounge and let us look after you.

Gum disease can be surprisingly easy to overlook.

Bleeding when you brush, red or swollen gums, persistent bad breath or gums that seem to be receding are all things worth paying attention to.

The important thing is not to wait until something hurts. Gum disease can develop without causing pain, which is one reason regular dental and hygiene appointments matter.

In this short video, Yasmin explains some of the signs to look out for.

If you’ve noticed a change in your gums, mention it at your next appointment or get in touch with the team.

Ever run your tongue over your teeth and wonder why they suddenly feel rough?

There are a few possible reasons, from plaque build-up to changes in the surface of a tooth.

In this short video, Yasmin explains some of the common causes and when it’s worth mentioning it to your dentist.

Noticing small changes in your mouth is useful. You don’t need to diagnose them yourself, but do tell us if something feels different.
