Our Dental hygienists are an integral part of your dental experience in helping us to provide you with a comprehensive and thorough mouth clean. This assists our dentists in providing a thorough over view of all your oral needs.

Dental professionals recommend 2 visits to the hygienist a year to help with the removal of soft and hard deposits from teeth, while teaching you how to practice good oral hygiene and provide other preventive dental care measures.

Hygienists examine patients' teeth and gums, recording the presence of diseases or abnormalities. They remove calculus, stains and plaque from teeth; perform root planning as a periodontal (gum) therapy and apply cavity-preventive agents such as fluorides and pit and fissure sealants.

While not replacing the need to see your dentist regularly our hygiene team are instrumental in preventing and detecting further gum and teeth concerns therefore minimising the risk  to you and your oral health.
