Why do I need dental hygiene treatment?

Your healthy smile starts with excellent oral health. Our highly trained and skilled dental hygienists are dedicated to helping you keep your teeth and gums in the best condition with expert treatment and bespoke care. We are best placed to look after your oral health, protecting your mouth from harmful gum disease and decay.

Regular hygiene treatment enhances your at-home brushing and flossing routine. Your teeth are professionally cleaned, with plaque deposits removed from even the hard to reach areas to keep your mouth healthy. During every appointment, we also spend time checking for any signs of gum disease, however mild, so we can provide treatment before any issues can get worse.

What does dental hygiene treatment involve?

We’re interested in your oral hygiene routine at home, and how your teeth and gums have been since your last visit. After a warm welcome, we ask you about your oral health and if you have any concerns. We explain the dental hygiene treatment process, if needed, and make sure you are feeling relaxed and comfortable before we begin.

You shouldn’t find dental hygiene treatment painful. We are skilled and experienced in administering professional treatment, and use ultrasonic scalers to minimise any discomfort. You may experience some sensitivity following your hygiene treatment, but this is temporary.
