Root canal dental clinic Hampstead, north London today? What happens if the dentist detects an abnormality? If the dentist wants to confirm that a lesion is benign or is concerned about a suspicious lesion, a brush biopsy may be suggested. A brush biopsy is a painless test for oral cancer, which does not require an injection or any topical anaesthetic. It is simply a small brush, that the dentist will use to scrape some cells from the suspicious area. These cells are then prepared on a slide and delivered to the testing laboratory. The results are usually received within ten days and will indicate the nature of the lesion. It is a very safe and accurate test.

It is caused by sticky plaque and hard deposits of tartar. It happens when teeth and gums are not kept clean enough. Without regular cleaning the gums will come away from the tooth creating pockets around the teeth where food and plaque can collect. Pockets are difficult to keep clean and gum disease will get worse if no treatment is not carried out. The next stage of the disease will involve loosing the bone that supports the teeth and the teeth will become loose until they will have to be taken out. Severe gum disease can be an inherited factor or an indicator of problems with general health.
Dental veneers are bonded to the top of your teeth, but they can be made to extend further if needed. Think of veneer teeth like fake nails, extending the appearance – and possibly the colour – of your tooth, but also potentially providing additional functionality. If you choose to do this however, bear in mind that porcelain veneers can also wear down or become damaged just like real teeth. If you’re seeking veneers for this, make sure you speak to our dental team in Hampstead about getting a mouth guard following the procedure.
