Start 2026 with healthy family smiles. Dr Rosh shares dental tips, routines, and how Pinner Dental Care supports confident, lifelong oral health.

January 7, 2026
Hello to all our readers, and happy New Year!
As we step into 2026, it's great to be back and once again looking after the smiles of Pinner and the surrounding community. The New Year is the perfect time to reflect, reset, and focus on health and wellbeing, and that includes your teeth. Our aim for the year ahead is simple: to support local families in maintaining healthy, confident smiles through great dental habits, regular care, and a friendly, trusted local dental team you can rely on.
A: January is a natural moment to reset habits, and oral health is often overlooked when making New Year's resolutions. After the indulgences of the festive season, reviewing brushing techniques, flossing routines, and sugar intake can make a real difference to long-term dental health. Establishing consistent routines for children early on helps prevent decay and builds confidence with dental visits. Regular check-ups at the start of the year also allow potential problems to be identified early, keeping smiles healthy and avoiding more complex treatment later.
A: Strong dental health begins with daily habits. Brushing twice a day with fluoride toothpaste, flossing or using interdental brushes, and limiting sugary snacks are essential for all ages.
Parents should supervise young children's brushing to ensure proper technique and timing. Replacing toothbrushes every three months and maintaining a balanced diet also support healthy teeth and gums. Just as important is scheduling routine dental check-ups, which reinforce good habits and ensure professional advice tailored to each family member's needs.
A: Pinner Dental Care is a full-service dental practice dedicated to caring for the whole family under one roof. We offer everything from routine check-ups and preventive care to advanced treatments including dental implants, Invisalign and fixed braces, cosmetic dentistry including veneers, extractions, and complex oral surgery. Our experienced team focuses on gentle, personalised care to ensure patients of all ages feel comfortable and confident. By providing comprehensive dentistry in a welcoming environment, we help families maintain healthy smiles at every stage of life.
