This review was long overdue but I had my 2 implants done at NW1 Dental Care in 2019 and im really happy with the results. I was anxious about the treatment but it was all painless and Dr Anima and the reception team were very understanding and kind throughout. Dr Anima is clearly very skilled and does an excellent job, their prices are very reasonable so with all that in mind I don’t hesitate to recommend them. Now I am sending my daughter there for Invisalign. Thank you guys for such an amazing smile !!
Bruxism
Bruxism (Teeth grinding)
Bruxism is a disorder affecting as much as 80% of the population at some point in their lives. Known from a Greek word meaning “gnashing of teeth”, Bruxism covers tooth grinding and jaw-muscle clenching that can cause teeth to break or become worn, cause headaches or even migraines, as well as cause or aggravate Temporormandibular Joint disorder (TMJ). Bruxism can occur with adults and children, but is most common in adults over twenty-five. Many people occasionally suffer from temporary bouts of Bruxism, grinding or clenching their teeth. Up to 70% of grinding occurs as a result of anxiety or stress.Bruxism usually occurs subconsciously when asleep so you may be unaware that you grind but can wake up in the morning with sore cheeks and a headache.How Do My Teeth Move?
Your tooth movements will be meticulously. Smilelign’s technicians scan models of your teeth using cutting edge technology. Each tooth movement is carefully decided using the Smilelign Ortho Studio Planning Software. A 3D animation will be produced that shows the movements your teeth will go through during the course of treatment. This allows you to see how your teeth will look like at the end of your treatment and an opportunity to discuss any specific requirements you may have about how you would like your teeth to look.
How Bruxism can Affect Your Life?
Bruxism sufferers experience short and long term symptoms that often are misdiagnosed for years. Due to the wide range of symptoms and that symptoms often appear and disappear erratically, or may be stress-induced, people with Bruxism may suffer untreated for a long time. Dentists are becoming more aggressively involved in diagnosing Bruxism and educating patients in the symptoms associated with this disorder. Successful treatments are available and can sometimes bring immediate symptom relief.
Short-term Bruxism Symptoms can include:
- Headaches and Migraines
- Facial myalgia (painful or aching jaw & facial muscles)
- Ear ache and Tinnitus
- Stiff neck and shoulders
- Inability to fully open mouth
- Poor Quality Sleep
- Tooth mobility and tooth loss
- Cracked teeth or broken fillings
Long-term Bruxism Symptoms may include:
- Prolonged migraines
- Excessive facial muscle tone
- Temporomandibular Joint Disorder ( TMJ)
- Clicking or popping Jaw joint
Our endodontist Giulia is also qualified to help get to the root of this problem having completed a two year course in TMJ dysfunction. To help relieve your symptoms please call or mail us to book a consultation with us.
Testimonials
Probably the best teeth whitening product in market. This is excellent! I tried so many teeth whitening systems including Zoom, Boutique etc, nothing worked for me, but this one is a miracle! Clinic has very good price for enlighten compared to other clinics in London. Service was amazing and results are absolutely fab !!! I finished the treatment almost 2 years ago, with the simple top up regime I keep my teeth pearl white. Love it and recommended to friends and family!
I joined this dentist specifically to undergo Invisalign treatment which I am now several months in to. I had been scanned for Invisalign elsewhere and not only did it take a matter of weeks to get a consultation in other dentists, I was quoted up to three times the price of NW1 Dental Care who saw me the same day. They also showed me my scans straight away and gave me a simple itemised quote on paper at a very affordable price. I was delighted at how straightforward they made it and signed up straight away.
All staff including the reception staff have been nothing but professional, friendly and accommodating, especially as I have needed to change appointments or have been running late. All of the dental staff I have been seen by were female which is a bonus for me personally (no offense intended to men!)
I was very anxious about dental treatment after many years of not seeing a dentist, and they made me feel comfortable. Any anxieties I had are a distant memory! I have been reassured that issues with my teeth can been fixed with bonding after my Invisalign treatment. Dentistry has come a long way, so I would highly recommend NW1 Dental Care to anyone, especially those who have not been to a dentist for a long time or are anxious about the state of their teeth.
Lastly the clinic is easy to get to, its clean, never packed, and everyone there is friendly and conversational. I never thought I would say this, but going to the dentist now is a pleasant experience!
I have just completed my Invisalign treatment and couldn’t be happier. I work in healthcare myself and everyone here has been professional, friendly and I have felt fully informed throughout my whole treatment. I couldn’t recommend Anima and her colleagues more.
Got enlighten whitening. Very happy about the service and the service
I had Invisalign treatment and whitening and was super impressed by how quickly the whole treatment was. My front teeth had been rotating since I had my braces off as a kid and I was a little hesitant about how long the treatment would take. Expect regular follow ups with the dentist and specialists who are super friendly and welcoming. I’d recommend coming here if you are considering it!
I’ve been a client since 2018 and my experience has been AMAZING. From reception to end of procedure all the staff involved are always extremely friendly and professional. So far I have had Invisalign and whitening with Anima as well as many small treatments and I’ve always been impressed with the quality of service the whole team provides.
Lovely environment and staff! There were some issues with communication that I expressed previously with things taking longer than expected, however, the team went above and beyond to make sure that everything was going on the right track! I’m thankful for their time and effort and excited to see my results for my zoom whitening!
So impressed with the staff and dentists at NW1. They are welcoming, always professional and have done a fantastic job on any treatment I’ve had done. Lidiya is super friendly and accommodating.
I most recently had zoom whitening course and composite bonding treatment, I’m so thrilled with the results I’m going back for more :). I’ve recommended to my friend who will be coming in soon for similar treatment.
First Class practice who helped me with implants. I would highly recommend them. Thank you for help, support and advice. Splendid Service!
