Preventative Dentistry

The best health issues are the ones that never happen. Preventative dentistry is about doing the little things ahead of time so that the big things never trouble you. 

Our advice is always to keep on top of your dental health and hygiene. This is essential for a happy, healthy mouth – and that will help you avoid the dentist as much as possible!

Dental Hygiene

This is the magic bullet of dental health. Our experienced team of dentists and dental hygienists can help you maintain your dental health by keeping everything as it should be. 

We can help resolve plaque build-up, infected gums and bad breath. We can offer scaling, polishing and teeth whitening. And we can also provide specialist treatments for dental implants, bridges, dentures and orthodontics.

In other words, we can ensure your oral health is at its peak – so that your teeth and gums stay healthier for longer.

Children’s Teeth

At Smile More, we believe in starting dental hygiene early. That’s why we encourage our patients to bring their children to the practice from an early age. This is the best way to start great lifelong habits – and ensure long-lasting dental health.

Regular check-ups from a young age will ensure that your children won’t later suffer from untreated dental decay and other potentially difficult problems. We can provide a number of preventative treatments for children. Call us today for more information or to book an appointment at our clinic.

Fresh Breath

Bad breath is a very common problem – and there are many different causes. Not all of them are dental – sinusitis and even diabetes can cause bad breath – but many of them are. And that’s where our dedicated team comes in. 

At Smile More, we can help you battle bad breath with a range of treatments. We will first perform a check-up to find the underlying cause of your particular difficulty. And then we’ll offer dental treatments and hygiene advice tailored specifically to you.

Smoking Cessation

Many studies have shown that smoking and using tobacco products has a detrimental effect on your teeth and gums. Tobacco affects the gum tissue cells, making smokers more prone to getting infections in the form of gum and periodontal diseases. 

We understand that quitting a habit is difficult. That’s why we offer support and advice for smoking cessation. With our help, you can avoid bad breath, stained teeth, jawbone loss, shrinking gums, mouth sores, decreased senses of taste and smell, poor healing of mouth sores and hairy tongue. Sound like a good idea? Give us a call.

Mouth Cancer Screening

Peace of mind can be so important – and so can being forewarned. At Smile More Solihull, we offer mouth cancer screening for our patients so that they can have certainty about their oral health. 

Mouth cancer screening is a short procedure at the dental practice that involves a thorough examination of your whole mouth. It includes the use of a handheld scanning device that is used to examine any lumps or lesions that you might have. It will highlight any risk factors so we can refer you as quickly as possible – or let you leave the practice knowing all is well.
