Hygiene

Regular dental hygiene treatment is important as it helps you keep your oral health in the best possible condition. As well as professionally cleaning your teeth, your hygienist can spot and treat any signs of gum disease and provide tailored advice.

A dental hygienist plays a vital role in keeping your mouth healthy. They are highly qualified and trained in preventing and treating gum disease and tooth decay. During your appointment, they professionally clean your teeth, removing plaque and tartar build-up that regular brushing at home can miss. Your hygienist also gives you bespoke advice and tips for keeping your teeth healthy at home.

The ideal frequency of your visits depends on your personal oral health needs. While a six-month check-up is common for many, your dentist or hygienist will recommend a schedule tailored to you, especially if you’ve had gum disease or have specific concerns.

Absolutely! Dental hygienists play a vital role in educating children about good oral hygiene habits from a young age. They can gently clean children’s teeth and teach them effective brushing and flossing techniques in a fun and engaging way. Early visits can help establish healthy habits for life.
