 Scale and polish is where your teeth are professionally cleaned by the hygienist. It involves carefully removing the deposits that build up on the teeth (tartar).

 Braces (orthodontic treatment) straighten or move teeth to improve the appearance of the teeth and how they work.

 Braces can be removable, so you can take them out and clean them, or fixed, so they're stuck to your teeth and you cannot take them out.

 They can be made of metal, plastic or ceramic. Invisible braces are made of a clear plastic.

 Braces are available on the NHS for children and, occasionally, for adults, depending on the clinical need.

 The wisdom teeth grow at the back of your gums and are the last teeth to come through, usually in your late teens or early twenties.

 Most people have 4 wisdom teeth, 1 in each corner.

 Wisdom teeth can sometimes emerge at an angle or get stuck and only emerge partially. Wisdom teeth that grow through in this way are known as impacted.

 If your wisdom teeth are impacted but are not causing any problems, they do not usually need to be removed.

 But sometimes they cause problems and can be removed on the NHS. Your dentist may perform the procedure, or they may refer you to a dentist with a special interest, or to a hospital's oral and maxillofacial unit.

 You'll usually have to pay a charge for wisdom tooth removal. If you're referred to a hospital for NHS treatment, you will not have to pay a charge.

 Your dentist can also refer you for private wisdom teeth treatment.

 Implants are a fixed alternative to removable dentures.

 You can use implants to replace just a single tooth or several teeth.

 To fit an implant, titanium screws are drilled into the jaw bone to support a crown, bridge or denture.

 Replacement parts take time to prepare because they need to fit your mouth and other teeth properly. This means they may not be available on your first visit to the dentist.

 Implants are usually only available privately and are expensive. They're sometimes available on the NHS for patients who cannot wear dentures or whose face and teeth have been damaged, such as people who have had mouth cancer or an accident that's knocked a tooth out.

 More commonly known as false teeth, dentures are fitted in place of natural teeth.

Orthodontics

 A full set is used to replace all your teeth. A partial set is used to replace 1 or more missing teeth.

 Dentures are custom-made using impressions (mouldings) from your gums. They're usually made from metal or plastic.

 They're removable, and you can clean them by soaking them in a cleaning solution.

 Dentures are important if you lose your natural teeth, as losing your teeth makes it difficult to chew your food, which will adversely affect your diet and may cause your facial muscles to sag.

 If the tooth is just chipped, make a non-emergency dental appointment to have it smoothed down and filled or have a crown.

 If the tooth has been knocked out or is badly broken, get advice from 111 online or call 111.

 If it’s an adult (permanent) tooth, try to put the knocked out tooth back into the hole in the gum. Make sure the tooth is clean and you do not touch the root. If it does not go in easily, put it in milk or saliva.

 If it’s a baby tooth, do not put it back in. It could damage the tooth growing underneath.

 Teeth whitening involves bleaching your teeth to make them a lighter colour.

 Teeth whitening cannot make your teeth brilliant white, but it can lighten the existing colour by several shades.

 Standard teeth whitening involves 2 to 3 visits to the dentist, plus sessions at home wearing a mouthguard containing bleaching gel.

 You usually need to wear the mouthguard and bleaching gel for a specified period of time over a few weeks.

 Another procedure called laser whitening or power whitening is done at the dentist's surgery and takes about an hour.

 Teeth whitening is cosmetic and therefore generally only available privately.

 Veneers are new facings for teeth that disguise a discoloured or chipped tooth.

 To fit a veneer, the front of the tooth is drilled away a little.

 An impression is taken, and a thin layer of porcelain is fitted over the front of the tooth (similar to how a false fingernail is applied).

 Veneers are generally only available privately, unless you can show a clinical need for them.

 Permanent teeth can last a lifetime with good care. The risk of tooth decay, gum disease and tooth loss can be reduced with good oral hygiene, a low-sugar and acid diet, use of a mouthguard when playing sport, and regular dental visits.. It is recommended that everyone, including young children, visit the dentist twice a year. Modern techniques mean that dental treatment can be carried out with no, or very little, discomfort.

 When you go for a dental check-up, your dentist should ask questions about your general health and medications. Many health conditions have an effect on your oral health and vice versa. Some medicines can affect your mouth or need to be taken into consideration before dental treatment.

 Your dentist will check each tooth using small instruments, such as a mirror and probe (a fine, pick-like tool). The dentist looks for issues such as tooth decay, gum disease and other conditions.
