As such we’ve launched our brand new “My Happy Teeth” campaign – a programme of engagement and education designed to encourage children to take an active interest in their teeth and oral care. Developed by Dr Harriet Purdie of Centre for Dentistry at Camberley, My Happy Teeth encourages children to collect stickers to customise their very own teeth-brushing chart. We also run regular My Happy Teeth interactive sessions in each dental centre to discuss topics including diet and drink, how teeth are made, how to brush and floss, and other interesting aspects of self care. At Centre for Dentistry we believe long-term oral health is vitally important, and campaigns such as My Happy Teeth aren’t just useful for children, but are great for educating adults through their children as well. To learn more about My HappyTeeth, and how we can work with you to make a real difference in local communities, contact Centre for Dentistry today.

ChairSafe economy wipes comply with the newly reclassified EC regulations regarding the disinfection of medical devices, and carry their CE mark with pride! The Alcohol Free disinfectant used with ChairSafe Economy wipes adsorbs and penetrates into the cell wall of bacteria, fungi and the envelope of viruses. It attacks the phospholipid membrane, altering its structure-causing disorganisation and faults. Essential molecules begin to leak out from the cell rapidly reducing its action and destroying them.

Dr Helen Harrison of Granta Dental, Cambridge, says: “For my new practice I decided very early on that I wanted to work with Clark Dental. From my experience working with them on my previous practice refurbishment, I knew they had the skills and expertise to ‘get things done’, and they certainly didn’t let me down. Clark Dental masterminded the installation of equipment in my new practice. They were immensely enthusiastic and used their wealth of experience to help us with our design process. They also took a huge load off me as they sorted out all the engineering issues.” “We were really glad that we brought Clark Dental in at an early stage in the project as they became an integral part of our team. They liaised with David our builder and thrashed through many problems without me having to get involved. They then did all the shifting of the equipment from the old practice as well as the installation of the new equipment. It was all immensely well planned and executed, they delivered what they promised, when they promised – invaluable!” For more information call Clark Dental on 01268 733 146, email info@clarkdental.co.uk or visit www.clarkdental.co.uk SternWeber dental units from Clark Dental With new rental option Clark Dental presents the Stern Weber range of dental units.

GC Europe had the foresight to realise the benefits of such minimal intervention and saw how this could be put into practice.The Company put into place an Mi structure and formed the Mi Advisory Board from eminent European academia. The Minimal Intervention Treatment Plan contains practical recommendations for wide ranging aspects of routine clinical treatment – from precise diagnosis, individual patient measures and the use of personalised recall plans through to preventive, non-invasive remineralisation treatments and atraumatic, minimally invasive filling therapy. zzzzzThe main focus of MI dentistry is on the earliest possible identification of potential caries risk factors and restoration of the mineral balance in the mouth, with an ultimate aim to preserve the physical and biological integrity of any tooth in the long term.The MITP therefore outlines systematic treatment procedures and links them to suitable Mi tools, while presenting ideas of a positive interactive communication between the dental team and the patient.
