Prevention is better than a cure

It might sound like a cliché but when it comes to looking after your teeth, prevention really is better than a cure.

As a patient at Shine – a leading dental practice in Mansfield, Nottinghamshire – you will be asked to attend regular check-ups where your dentist will carry out a thorough examination of your teeth and assess the overall health of your mouth.

Regular check-ups play a vital role in enabling us to identify potential risks or problems in the early stages or even before they occur. You are welcome to use your regular check-up as an opportunity to discuss any dental concerns you may have, or to ask for advice.

You will also be invited to attend regular appointments with the hygienist – the frequency of these visits will depend on your individual needs.

Our highly skilled and experienced hygienist will be happy to offer advice about how to best clean your teeth, as well as diet and lifestyle changes that could maximise your oral health.
