As well as brushing our teeth twice a day with fluoride toothpaste, we also recommend that our patients from across Liskeard, Tavistock, Bodmin and Plymouth use floss or interdental brushes daily to ensure the spaces between their teeth are spotless.<\/p>\n<p>At The Smile Centre in Liskeard, we are passionate about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.the-smile-centre.com\/dental-hygiene-liskeard.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">prevention<\/a>, which means we aim to prevent problems from starting in the first place and certainly before they become painful and more expensive to treat.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Visiting the dentist annually reduces the risk of tooth decay by 60%<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We encourage our patients to visit us regularly for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.the-smile-centre.com\/new-patients.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">dental <\/a>and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.the-smile-centre.com\/dental-hygiene-liskeard.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">hygiene appointments<\/a> to ensure the best care of their mouth. Regular visits provide an excellent opportunity for you to highlight any problems you may have &#8211; we can\u2019t help save your teeth without your help and commitment.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Don\u2019t ignore bleeding gums<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If your ears started bleeding, you\u2019d be at the doctors in a flash. Bleeding gums are an early warning sign of more than 20 serious medical conditions such as diabetes, arthritis, heart disease, strokes, some cancers, bacterial lung infections and problems with pregnancy. Our Plymouth <a href=\"https:\/\/www.the-smile-centre.com\/dental-team.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">dentists<\/a> are not just saving teeth \u2013 we may be saving lives too.<\/p>\n<p>Bacteria causes tooth decay: this bacteria produces acid that if it is not removed, eats away at the tooth enamel leading to toothache. The best way to avoid getting toothache is to keep your teeth and gums as healthy as possible.<\/p>\n<p>Toothache often starts suddenly. The pain can vary from mild discomfort to excruciating pain felt as severe throbbing in your jaw and ear, which can either come and go or be constant. And compared to the price of a dental health review, it costs far more to return your mouth to its pain-free state \u2013 never mind the risk losing something integral to you that is irreplaceable.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Your convenience<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We all live busy lives and understand that planning regular dental and hygiene visits into our packed diaries can pose problems, which is why we offer <a href=\"https:\/\/www.the-smile-centre.com\/contact-us.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">convenient surgery hours<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Our door is always open to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.the-smile-centre.com\/new-patients.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">new patients<\/a>, so please feel free to pop into our lovely, welcoming practice on Church Street.
