Lifestyle and bad habits can cause problems for you and the people around you. At High Brooms Dental Clinic we offer solutions to help ease these issues and provide support to our patients.
The damage that smoking can cause to our heart and lungs is well known. However many smokers do not realise that smoking also causes significant damage to their mouths.
If you would like to know more about the help that is available, for people trying to stop smoking, please go to www.smokefree.nhs.uk. Alternatively if you would like to talk about giving up smoking with one of our clinical team, they will be happy to help you. Referrals can be written by the clinician to your local smoking cessation venue who can guide and support you once you decide to stop smoking.
Snoring and sleep apnea treatment has in recent years been made smaller, simpler and more comfortable. Sleepwell Appliances incorporate the latest technology for the treatment of snoring and sleep apnea. They provide a reversible, non invasive treatment without the use of drugs or moving part machinery of any kind.
A Sleepwell is a custom made oral device, which is worn in the mouth during sleep to reduce snoring and/or sleep apnea. It is a Patent Pending design, which looks similar to two sports mouthguards. These are worn simultaneously, allowing the coloured acrylic bite-ramps to interface and gently position the lower jaw forward. There is a soft inner surface that fits snuggly around the teeth and gums, holding the appliance securely in place.
