We are pleased to announce extended opening times for Alderley Edge. 
The hormonal changes that happen when you are pregnant have a big impact on your body. Although the effects on your teeth and gums might not be the most obvious, they can still be important. You are more likely to develop problems such as swollen or infected gums while you are pregnant. If you do develop an infection, there is a risk that it could spread and affect your unborn baby.
It’s important to keep looking after your teeth when you are pregnant:
Brush twice a day using a fluoride toothpasteIf you use mouthwash, it’s best to choose an alcohol-free brandRinse your mouth if you vomit due to morning sickness as stomach acids can damage your teethTry to avoid eating too much sugarContinue with any dental treatment that you’ve already startedYou should book a dental check up to ensure that there aren’t any issues that could affect you or your baby during pregnancy. You may also want to have your teeth cleaned by a dental hygienist.
Make sure that you tell the dentist you are pregnant so that you can get the right medication if you need treatmentIf you’re visiting an NHS dentist, remember that you are eligible for free care while you are pregnant and for the following year

The sonographer was ready as soon as I arrived, and she was extremely calming, personable and professional. The scan and blood test where efficient without feeling rushed and all very easy. These appointments can feel uneasy and make you feel anxious but I felt reassured and in professional hands the whole time
I saw Kate throughout my first pregnancy and am now doing so again with my second. She is absolutely amazing, she explains everything really clearly, and has answered all sorts of bizarre questions and worries I have had. On top of being clinically excellent she is also just the loveliest person and always a pleasure to see.

We had the harmony test with the Birth Company and had a reassurance scan with sonographer Kirsty McGarry who was absolutely lovely and really put our minds at rest. We had been scared by our NHS dating scan and left feeling like there was something wrong. We explained the situation and was treated very professionally and with good care. Also speedy appointments also as I had phone in the morning and got an appointment by afternoon. So thankful.

Really friendly, efficient service. Great experience overall. Had the Panorama. My appointment was with Kate who was absolutely fantastic. The results came really quickly. Have a comparison with private healthcare elsewhere and must say that The Birth Company was just how I would like to be treated when I pay for medical services - attentively, calmly, friendly, in a pleasant environment that doesn't look like hospital. Top marks!

The Birth Company has been excellent, providing timely scans and blood tests during my IVF treatment abroad. Staff are always friendly and extremely efficient. I would highly recommend coming here.

When I first contacted the Birth Company I spoke to Danielle. She was fantastic. She went above & beyond to put me at easy & make the journey from Kent as stress free as possible. Every staff member that myself and my husband have come into contact with have been approachable, professional and friendly. Kate scanned me the first time and put me completely at easy. Lisa on reception is professional and very approachable. Highly recommended

Donald was so lovely! I was so nervous as I have a bad history and he was super quick and confirmed my baby's heartbeat as quickly as he could. He spent time showing me the baby and the anatomy and it was the best money I have ever spent! The reception girls were lovely too - considering they deal with babies day in day out they were super excited for me! Thank you so much one and all! If only I lived in London and could have all my scans with you!
