        At Practice Test, we know there are some dental conditions that are more common than others, and even with a honed oral health routine you may come up against one or more of them.

          Gum disease is silent, so it’s important to get your Practice Test dentist or hygienist to check for signs regularly. As with any health issue, if caught early it is much easier treat, with better results.

            Fresh breath

            Bad breath can have many causes, but ultimately results in a knock to your self-confidence. It’s important that if you recognise bad breath as an issue, that you speak to your Practice Test dentist.
