As a human being, you only get two sets of teeth during your lifetime; one set starts to develop during your first 6 to 12 months and should have completely erupted by 34 months. This first set of teeth will usually last you up to around six years of age and then will gradually start to loosen and need to be removed one by one. Finally, the next set, which is your adult teeth, will gradually grow through, and by the age of 21, all 32 of your teeth should be fully developed. This set will have to last you for the rest of your life. As a progressive dentist in Banbury, we have a preventive dentistry program designed to help you maintain healthy teeth and gums during your lifetime, which starts with your children.

Start young to achieve dental longevity!

Proper oral hygiene can be defined in one simple word ”routine”. You must routinely brush your teeth twice a day and visit our dentist twice a year. Amazingly, we regularly take our car for a service, yet some people do not regularly take care of their teeth.

One of the greatest gifts that you can give your child is not a mobile phone or a computer but education on the proper maintenance of their teeth. If you bring your children to us at Amsel & Wilkins, your community dentist in Banbury, we will help you educate them about the importance of a proper routine oral regime.

Bring your children in with you when you have an appointment; our friendly and capable staff will take care of them while you have your treatment. This way, you will help your children become comfortable with our dental surgery. When the time comes to have their first appointment, your children will be relaxed and calm. We will also play our part in helping them keep their teeth healthy by identifying any problems they may have and any that may manifest later.

Why suffer from dental discomfort

The theory that you only need to visit a dentist when you have a toothache is ridiculous because that may be too late. Tooth decay, bad breath, gum disease and even gum disease can result from poor oral hygiene. You can avoid unnecessary dental pain by simply brushing your teeth at least twice a day and letting us check your teeth and gums at least twice a year. Adhering to a simple oral hygiene regime is probably the simplest way of taking care of one of your body’s most valuable assets.

All dental treatments available for you

As a practising dentist in Banbury for over forty years, we have always kept up to date with the latest equipment, treatments and techniques by attending seminars and training regularly. This allows us to be confident that the treatment we recommend for you is the most suitable at that time. Because we are fully trained in facial anatomy, we can also offer you some pampering treatments. In addition to our full range of dental treatments, we also offer anti-wrinkle and dermal filler procedures. These non-surgical treatments are provided by our qualified practitioners in our safe and sterile treatment rooms.
