Digital X-rays are the norm here. I sat there, stared at a tiny camera, and before I could yawn, the image of my teeth popped up on a screen. It took less time than microwaving popcorn. The radiographs look like alien landscapes, but the staff narrate like David Attenborough: “And here, we see a slight molar gap… fascinating.”
They even have intraoral cameras that let you see the inside of your own mouth on a monitor. Be warned: it’s like looking at a crime scene involving a cheese sandwich. Still, it’s way cooler than just hearing “you’ve got a bit of plaque.”

You know what the best part is? After a filling, they give you a goodie bag—not with a lollipop (torture!), but with a new toothbrush, floss, and a tiny tube of toothpaste that tastes like birthday cake. I’m not kidding. It’s called “Sprinkle Flavor.”

I later used that toothpaste to brush before a party, and someone asked if I’d been eating frosting. That’s the kind of dental visit we deserve, people. Thurmaston Dental Practice understands that a little sugar-free fun goes a long way.
