“See you next week for that filling.”
“Looks like it’s going to be a root canal.”
“It feels like you almost live here!”
At Liverpool Smile Studio, much as we appreciate all our patients, we don’t want you to have to spend loads of money with us. Yes, you heard us. Remedial work is expensive and we want you to keep your money for more enjoyable things than fillings, crowns, fixed bridges and root canals.
As your dentist in Liverpool, we want to say other things to you. Things like:
“Great, see you in six months for another check-up.”
“That’s all looks great. Just see the hygienist for a clean and you can be on your way.”
“Goodness me, is it already half a year since you were here?”
That’s what we like to say to our patients. And, it’s easy if you do what we need you to do between check-ups, and that is to follow a regular, disciplined dental care routine. You do also need to come for regular, usually twice-yearly, check-ups.
Why get a check-up?
A check-up with us as your dentist in Liverpool costs £49.85. It may seem like a lot of money in one hit, but spending that twice a year can save a lot of money in the long run. If you don’t come to us for a check-up, we won’t have the chance to spot little problems and get them fixed. You can’t spot such things as gum disease, tooth decay or oral mouth cancer when they are in their early stages because they don’t hurt. It’s only later on that you will be able to feel them, and by then, they will be much harder and more expensive to sort out. Compare the cost of a filling (from £69.80 for amalgam and £76.77 for a white filling) to the cost of a dental implant to replace a lost tooth (from £2250). It’s a very big difference indeed.
We all have better things to do with our money, so, if you want to hang onto yours, avoid too many visits to the dentist in Liverpool, by ensuring you go to the dentist in Liverpool for regular check-ups.
