Managing NHS Capacity & ICB Guidelines

As you can imagine, we have been inundated with requests for NHS dental care across the region. While our goal is to care for as many patients as possible, we are currently required to follow the clinical allocation and prioritisation framework set by the Integrated Care Board (ICB).

We are continuing to work closely with the ICB to explore every opportunity for additional NHS provision so that we can expand access to as many residents as possible over time.

Current Appointment Prioritisation

In strict accordance with ICB guidelines, available appointments are currently being prioritised for:

• Patients experiencing acute dental pain or urgent dental problems
• Children aged 16 years old or younger

How to Book Urgent & Child appointments

To manage demand fairly and effectively, urgent appointments are released one week in advance. These can be booked online, by calling the practice team, or by visiting us in person.

Using our online booking system is the quickest and most effective way to secure an available slot, please use the ‘New Patient’ button at the top of this page.

If you prefer to speak with our team directly, you can call the practice on 01262 679 027 or visit reception.

Looking Ahead

Cavities—known as ‘dental caries’ in scientific jargon—should not be taken lightly. If a cavity is not addressed promptly, it can wreak havoc on your tooth and infect the sensitive nerves housed within it, potentially leading to the formation of an abscess, a localized infection at the end of the root. When an abscess comes into existence, the only recourse for treatment involves procedures such as a root canal, surgical intervention, or the removal of the affected tooth.

Tooth decay can impact anyone possessing teeth. Nonetheless, certain demographics are more likely to experience cavities. These include: children and teenagers due to elements like eating habits and practices of oral cleanliness; older adults due to aspects such as diminished enamel strength, challenges in brushing, and decreased saliva generation leading to dry mouth; people who consume edibles and beverages that stick to the teeth for extended periods, or those who frequently snack or sip; and individuals with genetic predispositions that render their teeth more prone to deterioration. Cavities can also develop beneath dental restorations like fillings, crowns, and bridges. Hence, it’s vital for everyone to maintain excellent oral hygiene, maintain a good diet, and have regular dental examinations, irrespective of their age or genetic factors. Fillings offer treatment for the following types of cavities:

• Restoring coronal cavities that are usually located on chewing surfaces or between the teeth
• Filling root surface decay that is common after gum recession
• Remedying recurrent decay that can form around existing dental work
• Fillings—especially cosmetic fillings—can be used to treat chipped or cracked teeth. More information on this can be found under composite bonding.

• Restoration of the natural form and structure of the damaged and decayed tooth
• Removal and arrest of infection from the tooth
• Prevention of further decay of the tooth by sealing off spaces where bacteria can enter

When your dentist administers a filling, the process involves first clearing the decayed material from the tooth, sanitising the impacted region, and subsequently filling the now-clean cavity with a suitable filling substance.

A variety of materials can be used to deliver dental restorations, each offering unique benefits and drawbacks:

Gold

These are individually fabricated in a laboratory using gold alloys and then affixed to the tooth. They are generally well-accepted by the gums and can have a lifespan of over two decades. They require multiple visits, however, and can be highly costly to make.

Amalgam

Also called ‘silver’ restorations, these fillings are made of a silver-tin-mercury alloy that is mixed just before placing it in the cavity. Time-honoured for their durability and cost-effectiveness, their dark hue makes them conspicuous, rendering them not suitable for use in highly visible locations.

Composite

Colour-matched to your teeth, these fillings use a material that combines silica-quartz fillers in a resin matrix, and are bonded to teeth using special adhesive systems. Composite restorations are preferred when aesthetics is a priority, but significant material advancements mean they can be used even in the back teeth thanks to the strength of the newer products. They might not be the best choice for extensive restorations as they can chip or degrade over time, and your dentist will discuss these considerations with you if relevant.

Glass Ionomer

Sometimes referred to as ‘cement’ fillings, these are coloured to match the tooth and are composed of silica glass powder.

Ceramic

Also referred to as inlays or onlays, these are custom-made in a laboratory and then adhered to the tooth. They can be colour-matched to the tooth and are resistant to discolouration.

In the event of significant tooth damage from decay or a break, the application of a dental cap, also referred to as a crown, could be advised.

After clearing the decayed material from the tooth—usually under local anaesthesia—your dentist will proceed to place the filling in your tooth. In case of a lab-made filling, an impression is made to record the shape of the tooth, and the filling is cemented in the tooth in a subsequent visit.
