Bracknells Singing Dentist Fed Ex Apologizes

Bracknell dentist gets apology from Fed Ex for losing Elvis' tooth.  A lovely parcel containing unusual tea, coffee and spa products arrived at Appledore today with apologies from Fed Ex.

Dr Teresa invites Appledore Binfield patients to arrive early for their appointments and have the time to enjoy one of these fab tea or coffees while they're available, the spa products home were put in a draw and one of the lucky team took these home for a pamper session.

Fed Ex (in error) took the Elvis tooth for an extra tour round the UK so it was late arriving for our planned Elvis day on 29th May.

Appledore are giving FREE mouth cancer screenings  Raising awareness of mouth cancer and hoping to keep Bracknell residents free from this disfiguring and lethal disease.

Dental Practice recognised yet again by the British Dental Association

Bracknell dentist BDA Good Practice The Appledore Dental Clinic in Binfield, Bracknell has recently been recognised again by the British
Dental Association (BDA) as committed to good practice and has retained its Good Practice Scheme Status. This means that the clinic meets nationally recognised standards in order to provide the best possible care for its patients.

As a member of the BDA Good Practice Scheme, each member of the dental team has signed up to the following commitment:

1.      We involve our patients in all aspects of their care and ensure that their needs and preferences are considered and that they can take informed decisions

2.      We ensure a safe environment by undertaking risk assessments and managing potential hazards within the practice. We follow current guidelines for preventing cross-infection

3.      We recruit team members that are competent to undertake the duties associated with their role and provide training where required. We encourage on-going professional development for all members of our team

4.      We monitor the quality of the service we provide and seek the views of our patients to identify opportunities for improvement

The team at Appledore always work hard to comply with the 120+ requirements of the Scheme. “It is quite a lot of hard work”, said Dr Teresa Day the Clinical Director and Founder, “but everyone finds it worthwhile and we really feel that our service to patients is 2nd to none”.

Patient Steve Catchick says “I highly recommend Appledore as a shining example of excellent dental treatment and service”

Dr Teresa added, “We involve all our patients in their treatment right from the start. We discuss the options available and give them all the information they need to decide which is best for them. They then receive a written outline of the agreed treatment, how many appointments they need and what it will cost. We make sure that there are no surprises”. Patient waiting times are kept to a minimum and every effort is made to make appointments that are convenient to the patient.

Bracknell Dentist Explains About Bacterial Infection Peri- Implantis

Peri-implantitis is an inflammatory disease marked by bacterial infection and the gradual loss of jaw bone supporting dental implants. It’s not yet clear whether the infection causes the bone to recede, or the bone loss exposes the area to bacteria.

Ten years ago, professionals said the condition didn’t exist. But now it is on the rise, as increasing numbers of people have replacement porcelain crowns with titanium roots. 

Half-a-million adults have at least one dental implant, according to the latest Adult Dental Health Survey.  Studies have suggested that one third of patients will be infected. “We’re sitting on a time bomb,” says Dr Stephen Jacobs, a past president of the Association of Dental Implantology and well-respected implant surgeon. “We are going to be seeing more and more cases.”

Dr Teresa - Dental Implants
Bracknell dentist
Dr Teresa Day Clinical Director & Founder of Appledore says ‘This is why at Appledore we recommend regular hygienist visits at least every 4 months to help you look after your dental implants’.
