There are some cracking dentists operating around central Leeds right now, but they wouldn’t be able to do such splendid work were it not for back-up, and in most dental surgeries you will find a hygienist lurking in the background, doing incredible work. Hygienists have a different take on your oral health and will do all in their power to promote it and help to prevent problems from arising. This starts by giving you a complete check-up for any signs of gum or periodontal disease and then they will devise a way of stopping it. This begins with deep cleaning below the gum-line to rid your teeth of any infection, but primarily, prevention is the name of the game with hygienists. They can fit you with dental sealants to prevent tooth decay and administer fluoride treatments in order to re-mineralise the enamel of your teeth- remember, prevention is the name of the game here. But a hygienist just doesn’t stop by administering deterrents, they are they perfect people to discuss all things oral with, from the way you brush and clean your teeth, herbal remedies and how to improve your diet for a better immune system. These hygienists should become your new best friends as they are the greatest ally you can find to keep your teeth and gums healthy.
