EXCITING CHANGES AT ASHWATER DENTAL PRACTICE After much thought and consideration we will be merging the
practice with another well-established private dental practice
in Wokingham - smile2o,
only a short distance away at 20 Denton Road. Over the last 13 years Ashwater has always strived to provide
the highest standards for each individual patient, tailoring the
service and care to each of you and providing this within
pleasant and relaxing surroundings. The team at
smile2
o share the same ethos and standard of personal
commitment to each individual patient. We are delighted that the team will be making the move with
you all, ensuring that our patients will continue to receive
their personal attention. Lynne and Lynda have both been
with me since the launch of Ashwater Dental and they will be at
smile2
o to care for you at your next appointment. Lesley
Denning and Ian Cooper will also be at smile2o to provide dental
care to their patients. My patients will benefit from ongoing care with Henriette
Williams, an experienced dentist with a very similar approach to
preventive dentistry as my own. This will ensure that you
will all continue to receive the same level of care and
treatment that I have provided for you in the past. Our new home from 21st April 2008
is 20 Denton Road, Wokingham. We have the same telephone number and e-mail address as
before. We look forward to seeing you at your next appointment in our
new location. Q U I T
Smoking in enclosed public places and workplaces is to be banned from 1st July. Ashwater dental practice recommends giving up smoking as it is one of the main causes of mouth cancer and can make existing gum disease worse. Benefits of giving up include:
For help with giving up smoking, see our website (Tell Me about Giving up Smoking) or contact our Oral Health Advisor, Lynne, for advice and support. Good luck if you try to give up on the 1st July
"WEB SHOP" - helping our community As a dental practice in the heart of the town we like to help our local community in as many ways as possible - our patients are part of that community. Wescott and Westende schools PTA have a web shop so if you order online and access the stores via www.westende.wokingham.sch.uk they get a percentage of the value of your order. It doesn't cost you anything but really helps the local schools. Check out the shops on www.westende.wokingham.sch.uk examples of the stores: Amazon, M & S, Gameplay, John Lewis, Comet, Oddbins, ELC Thank You
How often should I visit the dentist? The interval between dental check-ups is something we have always taken seriously at Ashwater and have discussed with the patient. The National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE) published some guidelines recently on the recall interval between dental examinations. You may have seen the headlines in the papers. We have always treated patients as individuals and given them a recall interval that is suited to THEIR NEEDS. We already knew a 6 month check-up wasn’t appropriate for all our patients! Issues to be considered when deciding on your next appointment Effects of oral hygiene, diet, fluoride use. Risk factors that may affect oral health eg Tobacco Outcomes of previous treatment We look forward to seeing you at your next appointment.
