Coming to see your dentist and hygienist every six months will help keep your mouth as healthy as possible. These routine visits check for issues such as dental decay and gum disease, making sure your smile is problem-free. We offer these examinations through the NHS so you can receive the care you need at an affordable cost.
That’s a large area that, if neglected, can cause poor gum health. Hygiene appointments and regular interdental cleaning will reach all areas.
During an examination, your dentist will be on the look-out for issues such as decay, gum disease, misalignment, soft tissue abnormalities and infection. These check-ups are the most common reason to see a dentist and are essential in keeping your natural smile for as long as possible.
Most people visit a dentist every six months, however, it does depend on your case. Your dentist will inform you when to next book your appointment at the end of the check-up.
Hygiene appointments are crucial in the defence against gum disease. Hygienists are trained in assessing, tracking and treating the condition. During a hygiene appointment, your hygienist will carry out a thorough clean that removes plaque and tartar from your tooth surfaces. This leaves your mouth bacteria-free and your teeth clean and smooth.
Treating gum disease through regular hygiene visits gives your smile the best chance at a long life. If not treated, the condition can progress to a more aggressive stage which can lead to gum recession and tooth loss.
The health of your gums affects your whole smile and that’s why we offer hygiene plans that can help protect your smile from gum disease.
