Services - Oral Hygiene
Gum disease is an infection of the tissues surrounding and supporting the teeth. It is a major cause of tooth loss in adults. Because gum disease is usually painless, you may not know you have it. Dental Hygienists/therapists are specialists in all aspects of preventive dentistry. They play an important role in dental health care by helping to prevent gum disease and keep your teeth and gums clean and healthy. Good home care is important if gum disease and tooth decay are not to progress into more serious problems. We advise all our patients to have regular visits with the hygienist who will work with you on specific tailor made oral hygiene regimes for you to follow at home. |
