Our
Practice made it's reputation originally on the basis of the quality of our
Emergency Service. We provided out of Hours Emergency Cover long before other
dentists were obliged to do so.

We should also say that we do not accept all children as patients, we only accept patients who are committed to Life Long Dental Health. We have about 1000 children and periodically as children reach 16 or move out of the City (although many actually still continue as patients). Children are offered their 1st visits for free and we do a pre acceptance screening. We have an Anti Discrimination Policy and acceptance does not depend on whether we see the child's parents, each child is treated on their own merits. We sometimes refuse to take on children as NHS patients and this will be for reasons such as the complexity of their problem and need for specialist care, the patients refusal to co operate or where we feel we do not have the skill required to achieve long term dental fitness. In all these cases we will refer the patient to an appropriate clinic. We use exactly the same materials for our children as we do for our private adult patients, so for example most fillings for children are tooth coloured. We follow the same high standards of Cross Infection Control. We are happy to answer all questions and a written treatment plan/report is given at each check up visit. |
| Dental Examinations at MK Dental Care for children and Teenagers always includes Dental Health Education and usually includes Fluoride treatment as well as advice about Diet and Tooth Cleaning. | ||
 |
We have a dedicated room for Dental Health Education. It has a large double sink and mirrors There are lots of leaflets to read and take away. There is a TV with Video and DVD's. We also sell a full range of toothbrushes and other dental health items. |
 |
| All children treated on the NHS receive an examination as well as x-rays where appropriate | ||
| We then give each child | ||
| A written itemized treatment plan | ||
| Which gives information about | ||
| Current dental health | ||
| Any dental problems (current or anticipated) | ||
| Any Specialist referrals | ||
| Any necessary further treatment required and options/alternatives | ||
| Proposed Orthodontic treatment or referrals | ||
| Suggested date for next check up | ||
| Any Dental Health Advice required including Diet Advice as well as Topical Fluoride Treatment or Fissure Sealants if these are necessary. | ||
|
What do we offer privately? Patients may see the Hygienist, for example, for sealants, fluoride therapy or preventative cleaning etc where this treatment may not be appropriate on the NHS. Patients who want to be seen at a particular time (Saturday or after school) may be seen privately at these times. Children who are not prepared to wait for an appointment may pay privately if they wish to be seen sooner. Children who wish to have check ups more frequently than the NHS NICE intervals may pay privately if they wish to be seen sooner. Children may be seen as NHS patients outside our core NHS times if we see their parents at the same time. The quality of our NHS examination, referrals, explanations etc means that children can have all their necessary dental care on the NHS |
|
Do we need to be seen privately for Children? The main advantages are that you can be seen at a time that may suit you better, you may also be seen sooner, but even more importantly you can have all the preventative and specialist treatment which may not be appropriate under the NHS. An extra hygienist visit costs £25.00 for a simple Scale and Polish. Good oral hygiene and a good diet are the secret. Good Dentistry
is the option when we get the first lot wrong. We also feel that children should Our experience is that generally well looked after children have well looked after mouths, and those with problems are as a result of bad habits and poor diet. Although not always true we have a good idea what children's mouths will be like before they even open their mouths. Tooth decay in our experience is always found in dirty mouths, and the converse is true clean mouths seldom have decay. However we are seeing a lot of teeth being damaged by soft fizzy drinks such as Diet Coke. This is in mouths with seemingly good oral hygiene. We say this because many of us were told that sugar is the key but as lots of parent know it is not the only one. |

For more information about dental Diseases have a look at our information pages on: Dental Decay, Baby Bottle Decay, Toothpaste, Tooth Brushing, Fluoride, Gum Disease, My First Tooth, Plaque. As a practice we believe that we offer good quality care for children. Our Dentist and Hygienist both have children and can understand both the clinical and parental issues. In addition our surgeries have a modern ethos and layout and we are constantly taking on new innovations and techniques. We do not have fancy marketing ploys but offer high quality care instead. In addition to the care we provide we refer most children for specialist consultations re Orthodontic Care. The number of new patients we see where they need Orthodontic Treatment urgently but have never been seen is amazing and often go hand in hand with the frequent changes of dentists at their previous dental practice.Perhaps more than anything patients who come to our practice see the same dentist each time. We have a dedicated Dental Heath Education room where we discuss their dental care. We also use it for explaining dental treatment plan etc. There is a video and sinks which are essential. All oral Hygiene Instruction is free and we have a constant stream of patients coming in for reinforcement lessons. |

Our Milton Keynes Dentist and Dental Practice Achievements and Awards We value continuous professional development and recently one of our nurses passed the NVQ level 3 in Dental Nursing and received a merit award (one of only 42). Also recently two of our nurses, who are already qualified Dental Nurses, were awarded the Dental Radiography certificate from Bristol University, one of them qualified as a dental Radiographer after getting the best mark in their written exam for the Dental Radiography Certificate. In addition we were very proud when two of our team have won major
dental education prizes. One of our nurses was awarded the
We are now a Recognised Dental Practice for Dental Nurse Training, and at the moment have 3 nurses who are with us for part-time work experience every week. Our practice offers the chance to use the latest equipment and work with the most modern materials, and in addition we also have a very close working relationship with the local Dental Specialists. In the last 5 years or so we have had 3 trainee Dental Nurses qualify after doing their work experience with us. We are delighted to welcome a new member of our team. Tina is going to be working with us as an Hygienist. She will be working on Saturday to begin with and will be in addition to Nur, our existing Hygienist. Tina is an experienced hygienist. She commented after her first day how well trained and friendly our team was. She said she was particularly impressed with our emphasis on prevention and the high quality of knowledge of our Nursing staff. Tina also remarked that our prices for tooth brushes etc were in her experience unbeatable. She also said complimented us on our exceptionally high standard of cross infection control. She said normally when an hygienist starts in a new job she has to make a few changes, however she found we already had all the materials she needed to do 1st class hygiene work. We now have 3 qualified Dental Nurses. We believe that this reflects the high importance we attach to training and professional development. |
