Trouble getting your children to eat asparagus

This seems more like hypnosis to me, but this report talks of implanting a false, but positive message in your childrens head about food.
I wonder if it will work with brushing teeth or visiting the dentist?

Emily brushes her teeth- quicker download!


Emily has decided to help her dad show other children how to brush their teeth.So we made a quick video of Emily brushing her teeth. Not quite BAFTA material, but she was willing.
Hopefully this video might help parents of similarly young children with their night time brushing. It's certainly a chore in our house, but if your children see Emily brushing, then by the wonders of peer pressure they may too!
Depending on your settings on your computer you may have to 'temporarily enable pop-ups' for the video to play

I am pregnant and have silver fillings, is it true...

COMMENTS
'I am pregnant and have silver fillings, is it true that these cannot be changed?'

RCI
The Department of Health recommend that silver fillings are niether placed or removed during pregancy because bacteria can cross the placenta to the baby. This is precautionary as there is no evidence that a pregnant mother's fillings can affect her baby.
However in the event of a mum-to-be having a dental infection or toothache, we would recommend seeking treatment, as the bacteria present from the infection could be harmful. We would also take emergency x-rays if required. The risk again to the unborn child is low.
It is vital that you inform your dentist if you think that you maybe pregnant. They will avoid taking any x-rays unless you specifically have any problem causing pain.
As with silver fillings the dentist will avoid any non essential treatment such as cosmetic work.

Green X-rays


No these have nothing to do with the Incredible Hulk, these are environmentally friendly x-rays. Digital Radiographs give us instant results and at a lower dose than conventional x-rays. These x-rays involve no chemical processing, which would otherwise require special disposal as it is an environmental hazard. Warlingham Green Dental Clinic is more Green than you might think!
