At Desford Dental Care, we believe in the power of preventive care and dental hygiene forms the bedrock of that care.
What do we mean by dental hygiene?
At Desford Dental Care, our aim is to provide our patients with 360-degree care. This means that we promote dental hygiene as we firmly believe it has a direct effect on our patient’s oral healthcare, and their general wellbeing.
Dental hygiene is no longer simply about keeping the teeth clean, and providing a good polish. Our highly skilled dental hygienists are able to spot the early warning signs of oral health issues such as decay, gum disease, and enamel erosion.
What happens at a dental hygiene appointment?
At a dental hygiene appointment with us here at Desford Dental Care, our hygienists will of course be able to provide you with a deep clean and polish. They’ll also examine your gums and other structures that support the teeth. By doing this, they can help detect and prevent gum disease which in turn can help prevent further health issues, such as heart disease. They can also help develop an at-home dental care regime designed around you and your teeth.
