Patients are often frightened that on their visit to the dentist they will have to sit through uncomfortable or downright painful treatment, especially if they have suffered from bad experiences at the dentist in the past. We promise this will not happen when you visit us. We use excellent anaesthetics and gentle techniques and we believe we have failed if you are not completely comfortable at all times. The most frequent comment people make at the end of their treatment appointment is “if I had known it was that painless I wouldn’t have worried about coming”. I hate not being in control

Mouthwashes which contain high concentrations of chlorhexidine if used for more than a couple of days Superficial stain and marks will be removed but the underlying colour of the crown will be the same. You may need fillings and crowns replaced after whitening as they will look dark by comparison with your newly sparkling white teeth Does it damage the enamel? The duration of effectiveness is dependent on the dose administered and generally lasts up to 4 months. For the first few sessions, the longevity can be shorter – around 3 months. Studies have shown that anti-wrinkle injections are more effective and last longer when given at regular intervals of 3-4 months due to progressive weakening of the muscles treated. With time the amount required becomes less and the interval between injections becomes longer. If at any time, you decide to cease treatment, your muscles will return to normal. Wrinkles return to their previous state, and do not become worse. Does it work on all wrinkles?For anyone who is ready to take that first step, I would happily recommend that they give Nothing but the Tooth a try. As soon as you walk through the door you will find yourself in a very welcoming environment with comfortable seating, current newspapers, and a relaxing ambiance. You will be greeted and offered a drink while you are waiting. So to sum up, if you are looking for a dentist who is gentle, friendly, won’t lecture you, and will definitely not hurt you I can certainly recommend Celia and the staff at Nothing But The Tooth.

If you dislike the sensation of drilling, we can give you frequent ‘breathers’ during your emergency treatment or in some cases, we can use Aquacut air abrasion during a treatment to fill a tooth, as this removes any decay painlessly, without any drilling at all. What happens in an emergency if I am embarrassed about how my teeth look? Most of our patients join the Sparkle Club, as it offers many extra benefits for no extra cost, as well as allowing you to spread the cost of your routine dental care over the year. Fees are paid by direct debit. I knew I didn’t want to have an office job so I decided on a career in dentistry as it would allow me to be in a caring profession whilst developing a wide range of skills. It’s a cliché, but every day is different! I work here on Saturday mornings, and the rest of my week is split between community dental services and the dental hospital. I get to see a wide range of patients such as those who have dental phobias, special needs and are medically compromised. I am also qualified in administering inhalation sedation. All whitening fades over time. It varies from person to person but most people will see a change within a year or so. For this reason we recommend topping up your results once every few weeks. Will my fillings and crowns whiten too? We work with Will Murphy to provide the surgical aspect of implant placement, before Celia or Hassan restore the implant with a crown. Will and Celia have been work colleagues almost since graduation (a long time!) and have worked together for patients needing implants for around 9 years. Will places his implants in one of his two clinics in Birmingham city centre or in Solihull. Once they are completed, you will have your crowns placed at Nothing But The Tooth. Is it expensive?Iqra completed her Intravenous Sedation training in 2018 with NHS Education for Scotland (NES). She understands that dental anxiety can be a significant barrier for many individuals when it comes to receiving the dental care they need and intravenous sedation is a safe and effective method that helps patients relax and feel at ease during their treatment. She continues to attend courses and training to keep up to date with the latest developments and prioritises patient safety and comfort above all else. I adore my profession, and I love taking opportunities for continued lifelong allowing me to refine my expertise and proficiency. I have never had any discomfort during or after my treatment. Although Celia said to raise my hand if I was uncomfortable or if I ever needed a break, I have never had to do this. Treatment has always been carried out to a high standard and the results are perfect. You will probably experience a few days of swelling and discomfort after the surgery. This can be treated using pain killers. Staff knew how to deal with medical emergencies. Appropriate medicines and life-saving equipment were available.
