Prevention - the services of our hygienist

Our dental hygienist has three main roles;

  • Removing calculus (tartar) from teeth - this is done by a technique called scaling and polishing.
  • Treating gum disease (also known as 'gingivitis' or 'periodontal disease') - this is caused by plaque which is a sticky film of bacteria. If left untreated your gums will start to swell and bleed and will ultimately result in tooth loss. Tooth loss is not through age - it is because of gum disease.
  • Teaching patients good oral hygiene techniques - individually tailored to specific needs.

It is important for your long term oral health to take advantage of the services of our Dental Hygienist - providing healthy teeth and gums for life.
