Preventive
Dental Hygiene Visits for Healthier Gums.
Our hygienist helps you keep your gums healthy and your teeth clean between check-ups. Here is what a hygiene appointment involves, who benefits most and how often to book one.
Overview
Understanding Dental Hygiene
A hygiene appointment focuses on your gums and the surfaces of your teeth. Kirsty gently removes plaque and tartar, checks for signs of gum disease, and polishes away surface staining so your teeth feel smooth and fresh.
Just as important is the chat about your routine. We show you which brushes and interdental cleaners suit your mouth and give you simple habits that protect your gums between visits.
