Not only will our hygienist offer a thorough scale and polish to clean any tartar and staining off teeth, but they will also offer advice and tips on your own oral care routine and how it can be improved. This can include suggesting recommended dental products and dietary advice. Not only can this lead to a whiter cleaner smile and fresher breath but is fundamental in the prevention and treatment and stabilization of gum disease.
A hygienist appointment takes somewhere between 30-45 minutes depending on the type of clean needed. Your hygienist or dentist will discuss this with you at your appointment. Ideally you should see both a dentist for examination and assessment of your teeth and a hygienist for regular oral hygiene maintenance.
