Today was a good 'un. This letter, from one of my young adult patients, greeted my return from the Bank holidays. He now lives in London hence the apologetic opening.

For the technically minded, I used a 'Stick-tech" bridge to replace his two upper front teeth damaged  when he was assaulted as a teenager. These are "glued" to the backs of the adjacent teeth.  He knows that he may need dental implants when he is older. It was very nice of the new dentist to be so complementary.

At the end of the day, Chris and I  got hugs from 2 patients. One, a referral from another dentist to remove 4 teeth for orthodontic purposes for her daughter. The referring dentist had tried twice with local anaesthetic injections but had to give up.   With our magic "R.A." and "The Wand®", it all went perfectly today and mum, who watched throughout, just had to give me a hug! She has promised a testimonial too, which will be nice.

The other followed an after-hours interview with a prospective patient in need of some denture rehabilitation. She has opted for "Twighlight Sleep" or intravenous sedation, to overcome her deep anxiety. She hasn't seen a dentist for years, thought Chris was an Angel (well she is really) and I was marvellous. Let's hope we can live up to expectations. We will certainly try. 

If you think that any of the above may apply to you and that we may be able to help, please don't hesitate. Pick up the phone and speak to Chris on 01635 47757
