Sometimes you just don\u2019t have time to get\nto the dentist, but you have something about your teeth that is beginning to\nworry you. Maybe it feels like a crown or a filling is coming loose.

Wouldn\u2019t it be great if there was a way to\nconsult the dentist here at Smilecraft\nin Stevenage<\/strong> without having to take time off work? Well, there is with the\ne-consultation on our website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The e-consultation is a quick way to find out if you need to come in for further investigation. All you have to do is fill in the form here<\/a>, telling us your name and contact details. Then you upload a selfie of your mouth, making sure that the picture features a clear image of what\u2019s wrong, and then fill in the box describing what the issue is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our principal dentist, Dr Bradley Abrahams\ncan then take a look at the picture and your information and get back to you\nwith a quick idea of what\u2019s going on and whether you need treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who can use the e-consultation?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Any of our patients are welcome to use the\ne-consultation facility. We find it works really well for those who have a long\nway to travel to see us, as well as for those who are very busy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s also a great way for nervous patients\nto make first contact with us. We will get back to you and let you know if you\nneed to come in for treatment, and we can also talk to you about options to\nmake sure that you are able to relax as much as possible when you do come in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Want a smile upgrade?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

E-consultations are also a great way to\nfind out if you would benefit from cosmetic dental treatments. Just send us a\nselfie of your smile, tell us what you\u2019re unhappy about it, and we\u2019ll send back\na few suggestions of ways to improve how your smile looks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t forget, an e-consultation does not\nreplace the face-to-face consultation and you will have to have one before we\nmove onto treatment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
