Smoking Cessation
Many studies have shown that smoking and using tobacco products has a detrimental effect on your teeth and gums. The problem is caused by the fact that tobacco affects the gum tissue cells, making smokers more prone to getting infections in the form of gum and periodontal diseases. Other negative effects of smoking are: bad breath, stained teeth, jawbone loss, shrinking gums, mouth sores, decreased senses of taste and smell, poor healing of mouth sores and hairy tongue.
In addition to this, most people don’t know that smoking is the main cause of mouth cancer, with thousands of people dying every year from mouth cancer brought on by smoking.

Happy Customers
Very friendly and experienced staff. I felt very comfortable and safe at the appointment, as they had lots of measures in place to protect from the spread of covid.
It’s nice to use an independent business as I feel they care more. Eyesmile members of staff always explain what they are doing and why they are doing it to make you feel at ease and feel safe.
From the initial consultation and throughout my treatment they were friendly, relaxed and informative, any concerns were dealt with in a highly professional manner which completely put me at ease, I would wholeheartedly recommend this dental practice to anyone.
