Whilst it may be true that some dentists aren\u2019t great at working with children, this is definitely not the case at Aura Dental.<\/p>\n<p>The dentists at our St John\u2019s Wood practice are highly experienced in working with young patients, and will ensure that your little ones feel safe and secure at all times during examinations and treatment.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.auradentallondon.co.uk\/dental-hygiene.html\">Dental hygiene<\/a> advice, such as the importance of brushing your teeth properly, will be delivered in an age-appropriate, fun and educational manner. Our St John\u2019s Wood practice also offers preventative treatment for children, including fluoride varnish and fissure sealant.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Teenagers<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The teenage years are exciting but can also be emotional, with social pressures, exams, and decisions about the future. At our St John\u2019s Wood clinic our dentists will work with teens to ensure their oral health remains in good condition as they move towards adulthood.<\/p>\n<p>Problems such as eating disorders (which affect both boys and girls) can lead to enamel erosion, while exam stress can cause night-time tooth clenching. Early intervention can help in both of these situations, and dentists can play an important role in spotting such conditions early.<\/p>\n<p>Our St John\u2019s Wood clinic also offers a full range of orthodontic treatments, including discreet appliances for self-conscious teens.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pregnant patients<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Large increases in the hormone progesterone during pregnancy can increase your chances of developing gum disease. Enamel erosion can also be a problem for pregnant women because of morning sickness. Our St John\u2019s Wood dentists can help combat these problems.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At Aura Dental in St John\u2019s Wood we have a unique collection of dentists and dental professionals who welcome patients of all ages.
