Dental Hygiene Service
That is why we believe in prevention rather than cure, partnering with you our dental team will ensure your smile is taken care of. Daily preventive care, including proper brushing and flossing, together with regular professional cleanings, will help stop problems before they develop. Preventing problems such as cavities or gum disease that could impair your ability to eat, cause pain and bad breath.
Good oral health also translates to good general health, because what many people may not realise is that poor dental health can have a negative effect on your general health.
Gingivitis

Regular hygiene visits are recommended to prevent the condition from getting worse.
During your visit, our team will teach you the proper flossing technique and oral hygiene protocol for home care that will help prevent gum disease.
Periodontitis
