Hygiene appointments
Regular hygiene appointments are vital for maintaining good oral health.
Dental hygienists play a crucial role in preventing dental issues, educating patients about oral hygiene, and ensuring your smile stays healthy and bright. During a dental hygienist appointment, you can expect a thorough teeth cleaning session to remove plaque, tartar, and stains that cannot be eliminated by regular brushing and flossing alone. This deep cleaning helps prevent gum disease, cavities, and other dental issues, keeping your teeth and gums in optimal condition.
After the cleaning, your hygienist will discuss essential aspects of oral hygiene, including proper brushing and interdental cleaning techniques and they will offer personalised recommendations tailored to your specific needs.
Remember, prevention is always better than cure and investing in these appointments and taking a proactive approach not only contributes to a healthy and beautiful smile, but also ensures your overall well-being as oral health issues have been linked to many general issues such as heart disease, respiratory disease, diabetes, dementia and cancer.
