Do I Need to See a Hygienist Even If Nothing Hurts?

Yes, oral hygiene appointments are essential even when you’re not in pain. Many issues such as gum disease, plaque build-up, and early decay don’t show noticeable symptoms until a later stage. Regular hygiene visits help prevent future dental problems and maintain a bright, healthy smile.

Our hygienists work alongside our dentists, meaning we can schedule appointments at times that work for you and recommend any follow-up treatment if needed.

What Happens During a Hygiene Appointment?

Professional Teeth Cleaning

Your hygienist will remove plaque and tartar from your teeth, especially around the gumline and hard-to-reach areas.

Ultrasonic or manual tools may be used, followed by a polish to remove stains and smooth the enamel, reducing future build-up.

Tailored Oral Care Guidance

You’ll receive personalised advice on the best brushing and interdental cleaning techniques for your mouth. We may recommend specific products such as TePe brushes to help maintain results between visits.

Review & Next Steps

Your hygienist or therapist will discuss any findings and advise how frequently you should return based on the health of your gums and teeth. If further treatment is needed, we’ll guide you through your options.
