Frequently asked questions
What is the dentist 2 year rule?
The 2 year rule is a legacy NHS guideline that advises adults to have a check-up at least every 2 years, even with no obvious problems. In private practice, we generally aim for a more proactive cadence: 6-monthly check-ups catch small issues earlier and prevent expensive problems later. Our Shipley practice typically recommends every 6 months.
What is the 80/20 rule in dentistry?
In dentistry, the 80/20 rule is the rough observation that about 80% of dental problems come from 20% of your teeth, usually the back molars where plaque is hardest to reach. Looking after that small high-risk group is what keeps the rest of your mouth healthy. Your hygienist and dentist will pay particular attention to those teeth at every visit.
Can a dentist prescribe diazepam?
Yes, a dentist is able to prescribe diazepam to help with dental anxiety, but it’s no longer a routine choice. Modern practice favours IV sedation, which is more controlled, more predictable and delivered by trained professionals on the day. Our Shipley practice offers IV sedation, which is generally a safer and more effective answer for nervous patients than an oral sedative.
How can I fix my teeth if I don't have money?
If cost is the barrier, 0% finance is the most useful tool to know about: it splits the price into monthly payments without adding interest. Plenty of private practices also offer plans starting around £20 to £30 a month for routine care. Our Shipley practice offers 0% finance over 12 months on treatment plans over £500.
Where can I find a good dentist in Shipley?
