Sometimes, it might be that you feel like your busy schedule allows just enough to work, eat, drink and sleep, let alone taking the time to take care of yourself. But it is important to dedicate some time to your wellbeing, and that includes making sure that you are maintaining good oral health and feel confident with your teeth when you smile.

In our digital age, technology gives us increased flexibility and accessibility for services and products – you can now have a virtual dental appointment at Smilecraft in Stevenage. What is an e-consultation? If you are concerned about your oral health or the way that your teeth look, you don’t necessarily have to drag yourself down to our dental practice. It might be that the dentist makes you feel anxious and you would rather be in an environment that is familiar, like home. This sort of consultation means you can describe why you are unhappy with your smile and what you would like to change about it, either in the online form on our website or by email.

The perks of technology

E-consultation is ideal if you don’t want to make the trip to the dentist just yet. By reviewing your concerns, the dentist can then decide whether or not you need to make an in-person appointment. As great as it would be, thorough examinations of your mouth cannot take place over email or a live feed. What is does do is eliminate your concerns if you simply want to ask a question and save yourself the bother of coming in.

Whatever you concern, it is worth seeking advice from us at Smilecraft. It might be that you are dissatisfied with the appearance of your teeth, and if they are crooked or gappy, we could recommend cosmetic dentistry like invisible braces. Or it could be that you have recently lost a tooth and are considering which route to take. In which case, we might recommend the reliable solution of dental implants, which are serve as natural-functioning replacements.

If you need advice from a dentist but don’t feel as though you need to visit just yet, have a go at our e-consultation and join the digital age.

What is an e-consultation?

The first stage is a simple form which you can fill in on our website. This gives us your contact information as well as a brief description of the way in which you are unhappy with your smile and how you would like to improve it. You can also upload photographs so we can see for ourselves what the issue is. When we have reviewed this initial information, one of our experienced team will be in touch to find out more about you and talk through potential treatment options with you. If you are happy with what we are offering and would like to proceed, then we can book you in for an appointment at our practice.
