🦷 What is the PrimeScan Scanner? ✨🦷

The PrimeScan scanner is a state-of-the-art digital imaging system that allows us to create a highly detailed 3D model of your teeth and gums.

Using a small handheld camera, we simply scan around your mouth to capture thousands of images in seconds. These images are then combined to create an accurate digital representation of your smile, which can be viewed instantly on screen.

PrimeScan can be used for a range of treatments, including:
✔️ Crowns and bridges
✔️ Invisalign and clear aligners
✔️ Veneers
✔️ Dental implants
✔️ Smile makeovers

The technology provides exceptional accuracy, helping us plan treatments with precision and ensuring the best possible fit for your dental restorations.

Digital scanning is transforming modern dentistry, making treatment planning more efficient while giving patients a clear view of their oral health.

Behind the Scenes: Custom Night Guards

Here’s a look at how we create a custom night guard using a precise 3D digital scan ,no messy impressions needed.So, why are night guards important?

Many people grind or clench their teeth at night (often without realising), which can lead to:
😬 Worn or cracked teeth
😬 Jaw pain or headaches
😬 Tooth sensitivity
😬 Tension in the face and neck

A custom night guard acts as a protective barrier while you sleep, helping to:
✨ Prevent damage to your teeth
✨ Reduce strain on your jaw
✨ Improve overall comfort

Because it’s made specifically for your smile, it fits better, feels more comfortable, and works more effectively than over-the-counter options.💬 Not sure if you need one? We can help assess at your next visit.

❄️ Winter & Your Teeth
What to Watch For

Colder weather can be tough on your smile.

You might notice:
🥶 Tooth sensitivity — cold air can trigger discomfort
☕ More staining — hello coffee, tea & red wine
😷 Dry mouth — especially with heaters and illness
🍬 Comfort snacking — more sugar = higher risk of decay

A few simple tips:
✨ Use a sensitivity toothpaste
✨ Stay hydrated
✨ Don’t skip brushing & flossing (even on cold mornings)
✨ Keep up with your check-ups

Your teeth need extra care this time of year too.
