Many people are aware of the benefits of seeing a dentist on a regular basis, but have you ever thought about booking a session with a dental hygienist? Seeing our incredible dental hygienists can help to keep dental diseases at bay and ensure your pearly whites look lovely and bright.

What do dental hygienists do?

Dental hygienists provide a range of services, which are designed to prevent and treat common dental issues, including bad breath, staining, decay and gum disease. Our hygienists are experts in dental hygiene and they offer advice to help patients remain free of dental disease, as well as providing treatments for those with existing or underlying dental problems.

Some examples of the services provided by our dental hygiene team include:

• fluoride varnish treatment
• fissure sealant treatment
• cleaning treatment, including surface stain removal and scale and polish
• gum disease treatment
• oral health and hygiene advice
• help with quitting smoking
• bad breath treatment and advice

How could I benefit from a trip to the hygienist?

There are many benefits to be enjoyed from seeing a hygienist frequently, including:

• reduced risk of dental diseases, including decay and gum disease
• fresh, clean breath
• bright, radiant, white teeth
• advice about oral hygiene at home

It is now possible to organise appointments directly with a dental hygienist, rather than waiting for a dentist referral; to book a session, don’t hesitate to call!
