Dental Hygiene Service

Maintaining good oral hygiene is one of the most important things you can do for your teeth and gums. Healthy teeth not only enable you to look and feel good, but they also make it possible to eat and speak properly.

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
Gingivitis is a condition caused when bacteria surrounds the teeth and enters the gums. The gums can become irritated, inflamed and often bleed.
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
Periodontal Disease is a chronic condition that needs immediate attention.
Through a series of periodontal cleanings, root planing and scaling, this condition can be controlled. Periodontal surgery is only necessary for severe cases.
