Dental Hygiene
Our hygienists Vanessa and Emily very closely with the dentists to prevent and treat gum disease.
There is a growing body of evidence linking gum disease with heart disease and strokes. It is also the main reason of loss of teeth and we take the treatment of gum disease very seriously.
Your hygienist can
-
Remove calculus (tartar) from teeth by scaling and polishing
-
Remove heavy staining from your teeth
-
Treat gum disease
-
Carry out fresh breath treatments
-
Teach good oral hygiene techniques to maintain healthy gums
Your hygienist is often the best person to advise you on the most suitable dental products for your individual needs.
We stock a full range of oral health products at the practice for your convenience. For smokers we have introduced a jet polishing system which is excellent at removing all the nicotine staining from your teeth.

What is Guided Biofilm Therapy?
GBT is carried out during regular cleanings and uses 'AirFlow' technology which is a combination of warm water, air and soft powder, to remove all bacteria (biofilm) in the mouth that contribute to tooth decay and gum disease.
This innovative new treatment is a very comfortable way to treat gum diseases and is particularly suitable for those patients who struggle with sensitivity when having their teeth cleaned.
