Top root canal dentist north London? What are the early signs and symptoms of mouth cancer? Cancer can occur in any part of the mouth, on the tongue, lips and in the throat. Sadly, mouth cancer has a very high mortality rate. This is due to late detection. The positive news is that a “precancer” will sometimes form a long time before cancer develops, and if detected early, it can be treated rapidly with an excellent chance of prevention or cure. Some of the early symptoms of mouth cancer include: An ulcer or a sore throat that has persisted longer than three weeks; A white or red patch on the soft tissue, gums, tongue or lining in the mouth; A chronic sore throat or hoarse voice that persists for longer than six weeks; Difficulty in swallowing or a constant feeling that something is caught in the throat; A neck swelling that persists longer than three weeks; Numbness of the tongue or other area of the mouth.

At Dental Perfection we always welcome new patients of all ages. The majority of our new patients are typically recommended by our existing private patients, or by those who have been referred to us by dentists seeking a specialist opinion and/or treatment from Dr Mehran Sanei, our Specialist Prosthodontist. New patients can simply call 020 7431 2710 to speak with our friendly reception team. We will quickly find the most suitable time for you whilst you are on the phone and we can answer any questions or concerns you may have before visiting our state-of-the-art dental practice in Hampstead.

Dental veneers are bonded to the top of your teeth, but they can be made to extend further if needed. Think of veneer teeth like fake nails, extending the appearance – and possibly the colour – of your tooth, but also potentially providing additional functionality. If you choose to do this however, bear in mind that porcelain veneers can also wear down or become damaged just like real teeth. If you’re seeking veneers for this, make sure you speak to our dental team in Hampstead about getting a mouth guard following the procedure.

A comprehensive report and treatment plan will be written out for you clearly detailing clinical and aesthetic problems, treatment solutions and options, treatment appointment sequencing and duration and estimated costs. This ensures you are perfectly satisfied with all aspects of the recommended treatment, and that it meets with all your needs and wishes. There is no obligation to proceed with dental treatments at this stage. Dr Sanei is more than happy for you to take time to read through your report and treatment plan at home before deciding. At Dental Perfection, you can also book a further complimentary visit after your initial examination to ask any questions. Dr Sanei would be delighted to explain his recommendations to you by email, phone or during a second complimentary discussion appointment to make sure you are fully aware of the findings, the benefits of treatment and successful outcomes.
