Our Dental Hygienists are qualified in the prevention and maintenance of oral disease. Each patient’s oral condition is unique and our team assist in developing a personal care plan. Our Hygienists scale and polish patients' teeth and work alongside Periodontists Trisha Whitehead and Puneet Patel, to treat more advanced gum problems.
The Hygienists monitor and care for orthodontic patients, especially adults and oversee the Oral Health Advisors with the development of essential cleaning routines. Our Hygiene Team also apply fissure sealants where necessary and carry out tooth stain removal treatment and tooth whitening.
Although "only" a hygienist visit , it was VERY thorough (but painless) , inspection and cleaning, (and good value) Left a very GOOD CLEAN SENSATION in the mouth.
Our Oral Health Advisor Jo works alongside our Hygienists and is available to offer personally tailored advice on appropriate dental home care and diet. By taking time to understand your individual requirements she can offer realistic, practical, evidence based suggestions to overcome difficulties and ensure that the time you spend at home is maximised, effective and successful.
Whether one-to-one or as a family, baby teeth or long in the tooth, everyone is welcome to feel the benefits in establishing, tweaking and maintaining a daily routine to keep your smile healthy.
We offer this service free of charge to all of our patients because we believe it highlights our commitment to prevention through education and compliments the care from our Clinicians.
