A hygienist can help if:
- You have stained teeth.
- You have gum disease.
- You struggle to maintain good dental hygiene.
- You need advice on keeping your teeth and gums healthy.
We have built a dedicated hygiene room to ensure continuity of care and the importance of keeping healthy teeth and gums for life.
While good dental hygiene starts at home, it is also important to combine this with regular visits to the dental hygienist. Our hygienists can professionally clean your teeth above and below the gum line, commonly known as scaling and polishing. Once plaque hardens, it becomes tartar. Tartar can only be removed by a hygienist using specific equipment.
A hygienist can help if:
Our hygienists will provide a thorough cleaning and polish, but much more importantly, the hygienist’s main work is to prevent and treat gum disease.
Our highly skilled and gentle hygienists will show you the best ways to keep your teeth free of plaque. Plaque is a sticky, whitish deposit that forms on your teeth when bacteria mixes with food and saliva. The bacteria in plaque produce chemicals that cause gum disease.
In turn, if untreated, this can lead to bleeding gums, gum shrinkage and, ultimately, tooth loss.
Our mouths are full of bacteria, known as plaque. The build-up of this plaque on our teeth causes inflammation of the gums, known as Gingivitis.
This can lead to tooth loss, which we want to prevent as much as possible!
Our highly skilled, gentle hygienists will provide a full clean and polish and create a tailored treatment plan for your oral health care needs. They will thoroughly examine your gums and structures that support the teeth to help identify, prevent, protect, and, if necessary, treat them for gum disease.
We will ask you about your current at-home dental care routine, diet and lifestyle and provide advice on improvements we can make. And will incorporate both a rigorous at-home oral health care routine as well as in-practice visits.
We generally recommend once or twice a year visits to our Dental Hygienist/Periodontal Specialist, depending on your needs.
We also offer additional Airflow stain removal treatment.
