We understand at Craigentinny that having a healthy\nand clean smile is essential to living the fullest and happiest life you can &#8211;\nand that the revere is often true. Patients with\nteeth which are stained or discoloured can often find their social lives\nlargely impacted and be left with a damaged sense of self-esteem and\nconfidence.&nbsp; Through our scale and polish\nservice, patients can walk out of our practice with a squeaky-clean feeling\nsmile and a renewed confidence. Our friendly and approachable team of\ndental hygienists are also available for general consultations with patients\nabout numerous home remedies and ways they can maintain a healthy smile and\ngood dental hygiene. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Six month smiles<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another service which is widely popular here at\nCraigentinny Dental Care is the installation of discreet dental aligners, which\nare generally favoured by teenagers and young adults over conventional\northodontic methods such as fused metal \u2018train-track\u2019 braces. Treatments such\nas our \u2018Six Month Smiles\u2019 process offer discreet and often removable\nalternative methods of dental realignment which, when worn, are practically\ninvisible. One of the reasons for the success of these methods of discreet\northodontic aligners being favoured over conventional methods is that they are\nnon-invasive and do not affect the user\u2019s outward appearance and as such allows\nthem to undertake essential dental realignment without attracting any unwanted\nattention from peers or colleagues. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Chemical aid<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At <strong>Craigentinny Dental Care<\/strong>, we understand that a trip to the dentist can bring about a large amount of stress and discomfort for many. As such we aim to make the entire process as stress free and calming as possible. However, in instances where patients suffer from higher degrees of dental anxiety we offer <a href=\"https:\/\/www.craigentinny.co.uk\/sedation-dentistry-in-edinburgh\/\">sedation dentistry in Edinburgh<\/a>. This is an intravenous form of sedative which is administered to the patient prior to beginning treatment to calm them and allow the process to be carried out smoothly. Before undertaking <strong>sedation dentistry in Edinburgh<\/strong>, patients must fill out a short medical history form to ensure the process is risk free, as well as discuss the process with a dental practitioner of their choosing. Dental sedation can be massively beneficial to patients who suffer crippling dental anxiety, but still require treatment to maintain a healthy and hearty smile. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here at Craigentinny Dental Care for the past 25 years we\u2019ve been a staple in the local Edinburgh community by providing a bespoke, patient-centred dental experience like no other.
