The team at Landmark Dental are committed to delivering the very best dental care and support to our patients. We believe that this comes in a variety of different forms – from taking the time to listen to your wishes and worries when it comes to your dental health, to ensuring our clinicians stay up to date with the most recent developments in dentistry. Another way we feel we can offer patients the best possible experience is by investing in the latest tools and technology. For example, our state of the art CBCT Scanner allows us to produce detailed 3D images which are incredibly useful for a variety of treatments, including implants, orthodontics and endodontics. We also have an operating microscope, which means we can accurately identify and treat even the smallest problems that arise in the mouth, such as a crack in the tooth. This approach means we can help patients prevent more serious problems that could arise in the future. If you would like to find out more about the technology available at our Hemel Hempstead practice, or to book an appointment, please get in touch with our friendly team. - [Read More]

It’s a good idea to protect yourself from illnesses such as shingles or chickenpox by getting a vaccine and preventing future illness. It’s always a good idea to keep your tetanus shots up to date. Chickenpox vaccinations are crucial in providing effective protection against the varicella-zoster virus, preventing the potentially severe and contagious illness in individuals. Cholera vaccination plays a pivotal role in safeguarding individuals from the severe gastrointestinal infection caused by Vibrio cholera, helping to mitigate the risk of outbreaks and promoting public health. Diphtheria Tetanus/Polio (DTaP) is a combination vaccine designed to protect against three potentially serious infectious diseases, providing immunity against diphtheria, tetanus, and polio. - [Read More]

The history of express health tests is short; the first developments appeared around a hundred years ago. But they became widely known and publicly available only fifty years later. At the same time, the list of such health tests that could be used at home was limited to pregnancy tests, and later became wider. Today I would divide all rapid health diagnostic tests into two large groups: test kits that require professional personnel or equipment; and test systems that are so simple that they practically eliminate the possibility of error. Like all medical devices, rapid health testing kits are subject to oversight and regulation by the FDA. Rapid tests available for at-home use are labeled OTC, or “over the counter”. And according to the rules of CLIA (Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments), such express health test kits are under the CLIA-WAIVED category. This is necessary to know in order to understand the likelihood of error in assessing test results and to purchase the right health test kit. - [Read More]
