First Class Dental Care For All The Family

If you are looking for a family dentist in Burton, we are here to help.

Mike Allen’s Dental Practice has been established in Burton for over thirty years now. During this time, we have seen different generations of the same families come through the door of our Barberry Court premises. Our aim is not simply to focus on single aspects of dentistry, whether general or cosmetic, but to offer the best service possible for all families in the Burton area.

Never too young

You can never start visiting a dentist too early in life. Generally, we recommend that parents bring their child for the first visit at around one year of age, when their milk teeth are coming through. At this stage, it is highly unlikely that they will need any treatment, but an early visit can accustom the child to the smells and sounds of a dental practice.

Parents also often benefit from these appointments as we are able to discuss with them, how best to care for their child’s teeth in the coming years.

Children

From primary school age to leaving school; these are probably the most critical years for a child’s oral health. Hopefully, early dental visits will stand them in good stead and will ensure that they continue with regular dental visits through later years. It is an age though when there is a lot of peer pressure, and combined with many children’s poor dietary habits, also a time when their teeth and gums come under particular threat. Ensuring professional dental care at our Burton practice, whilst, at the same time, educating them about good oral health care, will hopefully see them entering their adult years with healthy teeth and gums.

Adults

As adults, most of us are aware of the importance of good brushing, flossing and regular dental visits. Much work done on patients, as adults, is of the maintenance of their teeth, perhaps restoring damaged ones with dental crowns etc. It is also a time of life when many patients consider cosmetic dentistry to improve the appearance of their smile. One of the most popular of these procedures is teeth whitening which we offer Burton patients using our home whitening kits.

It is also a time when some people, perhaps who avoided dental braces as teens, look at the range of adult orthodontics that we have available, to straighten their teeth.

Later years

Even in our later years, it is important to maintain healthy teeth and gums. Those who have lost teeth though can still benefit from procedures such as dental implants to replace missing teeth, enabling them to both smile confidently and have the ability to eat a wide range of foods, unrestricted by dentures.
