Dental Hygiene

Dental Hygiene

Dental hygiene involves the maintenance of keeping your gums in great shape.

As they are the groundwork in which your teeth exist, they need to stay in great condition so that your teeth can keep performing the functions you need them to. Routine hygiene appointments ensure that this remains the case.

What are hygiene appointments?

Hygiene appointments should be an essential part of your efforts to stay healthy, just like your visits to the dentist.

Our responsibility is to remove plaque from along your gum line so that gum disease is not able to strike and create problems such as gum recession and small pockets between your teeth. Such issues make your teeth vulnerable not only to gum disease but to decay and dental erosion too.

Airflow Polishing – an enhanced clean for your smile

Airflow tooth polishing is a gentle, supplementary clean that you can opt for after a classic scale and polish during your hygiene clean visits. The mixture of water, powder particles and compressed air is applied to your teeth and does an amazing job of getting to the nooks and crannies of your mouth, where plaque and tartar may have settled. We highly recommend Airflow Polishing, particularly for patients who have high-risk factors for gum disease, and who have a significant amount of plaque and tartar along the gum line.
