Top brushing tips from Dr Ronette 🦷🪥

Brushing twice a day is great, but how you brush matters just as much!

Here are Dr Ronette’s key reminders:
⏱️ Brush for at least 2 minutes each time.
🌀 Be thorough, not aggressive. Gentle brushing protects your enamel and gums.
➡️ Start in one spot and move around the entire arch before switching sides.

Consistency and the right technique go a long way in keeping your smile healthy.

FAQ // How long will it take to see results from teeth whitening? 🤔

The truth is: it depends on your teeth 🦷

Some people see a difference after just one session, while others need 2–3 weeks to notice a visible change.

That’s why we always take a starting shade before treatment, so you can truly see your progress.

✅ Professional whitening gives you the safest and most predictable results.
⚠️ Be cautious of products that promise extreme whitening too fast, they can damage your enamel if not properly formulated.

Thinking about brightening your smile? We’re here to help you do it safely and effectively:

Ramsbottom Dental Care, actually care. They are a great team, really friendly, great at what they... do and the clinic is state of the art, it is beautiful.

Hygienist was top notch. I'm usually left with saw and bleeding gums but they were meticulous and... did it with such precision my teeth were spotless and not an ounce of blood or discomfort.However, Sophie said I needed a £120 custom fit night guard and they made one for me. I felt rushed and spoken to like I was a nuisance. During fitting it was briefly adjusted once and then quickly put in a box and me sent home. After getting a minute to use it I found it rocks to the right when I bite on it as there's very little contact on the left and there are large bits sticking into my tongue on the right. I don't feel comfortable going back for another adjustment as they've shown they have little time and are more concerned about maximizing throughput and profit. Again, I do not feel comfortable going back.Hygienist was great though 👌read more

It looks completely natural, and I’m so happy with the outcome.Kelly Wolfe did a full dental hygiene treatment on my entire set of teeth, and again, the results were incredible. My teeth feel so clean and healthy. Both Sophie and Kelly made me feel well cared for, and it’s clear this practice genuinely puts their patients first.

Dr Goosen who I saw initially is so professional and will do his best to save teeth, I have not finished treatment yet but I will never fear the dentist whilst being a patient at ramsbottom dental care.

Johan has been my Dentist for 10 years, he's an excellent Dentist who takes great pride in his... work. I've just completed having a dental implant with Johan, I knew he would do a great job, but being an anxious patient I had conscious sedation with Dental Sedation Solutions who the surgery have teamed up with. The procedure was brilliant, it was anxiety and stress free. I would highly recommend this surgery for a First Class Dental Experience from the minute you walk through the door.Kristineread more

I have a tremendous amount of trust and confidence in Johan and his team at Ramsbottom Dental Care.... About two years ago a front tooth broke and I have had an implant fitted. It was a masterclass in dental engineering. A 3 dimensional scan is made of the jaw and information transferred to a CAD (Computer Aided design) system. The implant is fitted using a guidance jig and the end result is a perfect match in size, alignment and tooth shade.Johan is very professional and pays a lot of attention to detail. I would not hesitate to recommend him and his team.R C Barkerread more

I had the pleasure of visiting Ramsbottom Dental Care today, and I must say it was a surprisingly... positive experience. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming, and the staff was incredibly friendly.The receptionist was welcoming and the waiting area was really pleasant and comfortable, making the brief wait enjoyable.Sophie, my dentist, and her assistant Shannon were exceptional. They took the time to explain each step of the examination process and Sophie took the time to go over all of my treatments options in great detail which really helped me to decide the best option for me.What also stood out was the modern and well-equipped facility. The use of advanced technology not only made the procedures more efficient but also instilled confidence in the quality of care provided.Overall, my visit to Ramsbottom Dental Care was really positive. I left feeling well taken care of, and I would highly recommend this dental practice to anyone in search of a friendly, professional, and technologically advanced dental experience. Kudos to the entire team for making a routine dental visit such a pleasant one. If only all dentists were like this!read more

This practice is by far the very best I have been to - ever!

The premises are inviting, relaxing, and absolutely spotless. I've instantly gone from a terrified patient to feeling reassured and happy with my treatment plan - in a very short period of time. I just wish we had found them sooner, and have absolutely no hesitation in recommending them (in fact I do so at every opportunity!) Never before has a dentist extracted my teeth without sedation, but Dr Johan did so with the very minimum of discomfort. I have now regained my smile, and could not be happier - thank you!read more
