ʻI only want some information about what can be doneʼ H
ave you ever wanted to ask someone about
teeth but don’t particularly need to see the Dentist? Maybe someone has mentioned implants to you and you would like to see one and would like an explanation of how they work? Maybe a friend has had some teeth whitening done and you would like some information about it without having a dental
examination with the Dentist? Or maybe you just have some questions that you keep
forgetting to ask your Dentist but would like to know the answer. What you need to do is to visit Marie at our practice. Marie has been Dr Tom’s Dental Nurse for 16 years and now has taken on the role of practice co-ordinator. This means that she meets our new patients and lets them know what we do in the practice, what types of treatment are available and what the procedures involve. She stays with you through your first oral health check so that she knows what type of treatment is proposed exclusively for
you and afterwards can discuss with you your particular circumstances. She has models to show you what the differences are
between crowns, bridges and implants so that you are happy with what the treatment means. You can spend as long as it takes with her to make sure you fully understand the treatment. She has her own consultation area away from Dr Donnelly where you can relax and have a cup of coffee, so there are no time constraints and her time is free! You do need to be a patient at South Bar Dental to benefit from her knowledge, however. If you just want some information call us on 01295 262008 and arrange to come in for a free consultation with Marie at a mutually convenient time. If you are contemplating some implants or some other complex treatment she can arrange for you to speak to someone who has had the treatment themselves. They can give you the benefit of their own experience and the change it has made to them having their smile enhanced. We look forward to meeting you soon and helping you to understand different treatments and techniques which can create a lovely smile for you. Dr Tom Donnelly. 41 South Bar, Banbury, OX16 9AE. 01295 262008.

n Get your skin ready for spring T
he cold, harsh weather outside, and dry, heated air inside during the winter months does quite a bit of damage to our skin. Add to that the fact that we don’t get much sun exposure and it is easy to see that our skin needs a little prepping to get it ready for the first warm spring days outside. Get rid of dead skin cells Your first goal should be to get rid of any dead skin cells on your body. This will prepare your skin for the moisturizing that will follow. Use a gentle scrub. it will gently exfoliate your skin. Skip the hot bath Soaking in a hot bath may seem tempting when it’s cold outside, but it can also further dry out your skin. Opt for a quick warm (not hot) shower instead and use a gentle moisturizing cleanser. Pat yourself dry with a soft towel. Don’t forget to replenish your skin using a good moisturizer after each shower. Moisturise To soften the skin and give it that nice, natural glow, use plenty of moisturiser. Use a good, natural moisturiser daily, especially after you get out of the shower. Pay special attention to your hands and face, since they will be more exposed to the elements than the rest of your body. n
