We had a lovely gentleman who came in to us today looking for our help,he had some toothache that had been bothering him for a few days.

He was so delighted with the fabulous service that we had provided him with that he decided he would like to register with our practice as a private patient.He had a full consultation done when he was in this morning & is happy with the quality of our work that he is now going ahead with a full cosmetic treatment plan,which will commence next week,his work ranges from crowns,veneers & an implant in the near future.

We always welcome new patient & are happy to provide with our service!!!

We are delighted

Have been so busy I have had hardly any time to BLOG !

Have had 4 CEREC patients in and 2 laser whitening patients so you can imagine that along with other dentists doing their every day dentistry we are run off our feet !

Hopefully it will be better tomorrow !

Dr Nahida Roy turns 40 this week and doesn’t look a day over 21

She has been at the practice for a good few years now and is a very popular dentist. She does all treatments in the practice including Cerec and the very popular Enlighten tooth Whitening.

She is raising a young family so at present only works 2 days per week which alwayd ensures that she is very busy !

You would not believe that we have booked our Christmas night out !

25 members of staff living it up at the Glasgow Hilton !

Cannot belive that now that the schools are going back in Scotland it really is now the run up to Christmas. People are already starting to enquire about gift vouchers for presents.

Our Ultimate tooth whitening package “Enlighten” seems to be on the top of folks Christmas wish lists. We have had a great response in regards to this package and more patients than ever are opting for this rather than  other whitening systems we have on offer.

The good thing is that once the patient sees the fantastic results the Enlighten produces  they more often than not want to go ahead with other cosmetic treatment.

Veneers are another best seller at Christmas. With our Cerec veneers patients are able to walk out of the surgery on the same day with a whole new smile.

At least we have a few days off after all that hard work to recuperate !

What a day !

We have had a problem with our phone lines this morning and no patients were able to get through – as soon as it was fixed they started to go mad !

As a result we have had 16 new patients registering within half an hour and the majority of them were wanting tooth whitening - it seems Enlighten has really taken off in Glasgow !

Rita had a new patient yesterday looking to have all his old anterior veneers replaced before his Big Day in September. After his initial consultation with Rita where she gave him a full oral health check,she decided it was best to get him into see Heather our Hygienist for a full oral health work out – his teeth were in good working order but his gums were a bit neglected.

Rita and the patient decided that after seeing Heather he was going to start a course of our Ultimate whitening system, Enlighten. This consists of trays being made by Enlighten themselves and them being worn, with whitening gel for 14 nights. On the 15th day or the closest thing to it we would have the patient back into the surgery for an hour course of laser whitening.

When happy with the results of the whitening and when Rita has done some minor fillings in posterior teeth to bring the patient back up to full dental health then the wotk starts on his front veneers.

Patient is very pleased that this work is being carried out and can’t wait to see the results.

Our new dentist John Wright has been kind enough to write us a wee blog to let us know a bit about himself.

Having completed my science doctorate/PhD in 1991, I felt that a career in dentistry would suit a part of my character which places great importance on paying attention to detail, which in turn leads to successful outcomes. After qualifying in dentistry in 1996 with commendation, I have thoroughly enjoyed life as a dentist and worked in the Glasgow area since then, honing my dental skills along the way. I soon came to the conclusion that preventatively orientated dentistry should be paramount, ‘prevention is better than cure’, and as a result promote several options that are not always available on the NHS system. My belief is that everyone should be given a choice of all up to date treatment and reasonable options available. With this approach in mind I have a specialised interest in the use of white/tooth coloured restoratives as these have been shown to preserve and increase tooth lifespan as opposed to standard fillings. They can be used as an alternative to and also prevent the later need for crowns and veneers as sound tooth structure is maintained in all cases. Also in this ever changing world that is more cosmetically aware, I am able to provide veneers/crowns where appropriate and resin restorative build ups together with the use of Botox anti wrinkle treatment for both young and more senior members of the community. In recent years I have attained a qualification in advanced dental acupuncture, a useful tool which can be used to treat general stress, anxiety, dental jaw muscle pain and those individuals with a prominent gag reflex. All preliminary discussions on any matter are most welcome. Thankyou

Yesterday at the practice was hectic ! The amount of new patients coming in is unbelievable at the moment ! Nahida Roy, Jamie Maguire and Rita Ahmad have new folk coming out of their ears !! Being at the reception desk is a task at the minute. What with the amount of Medical Historys and Smile Menus that hav to be handed out, filled in and then scanned into treatment record cards we seem to be unable to catch up with the rest of our work !

Roll on the weekend !!
