FAQs

Do i need to see a dental hygienist ? A hygiene visit is one of the more affordable dental treatments available, but many people don’t realise they need to see a hygienist. Hygiene visits in many ways are the most important element of your dental treatment. It helps to prevent dental problems and is mainly carried out to get rid of dental plaque and tartar (calculus) which are the two main causes of caries (tooth decay) and gum disease.

At your oral hygiene appointment, the dentist will clean your teeth, using an ultrasonic scaler or hand scaler to remove the (dental plaque), which is a soft white looking deposit that forms on the surface of teeth. It forms when bacteria and germs combine with food and saliva. The ultrasonic scaler also removes hard calculus build-up (tartar) which is a hardened calcified plaque that sticks firmly to the teeth – this is the material that no matter how hard you try to remove at home from your teeth won’t budge! Each session takes approximately 30 minutes or longer depending on which package is required.

No, teeth cleaning doesn’t damage teeth. In fact, it helps in removing tartar and other particles that might be damaging your teeth.

Yes, teeth cleaning helps in removing stains and brighten your teeth a little bit. However, to get the best whitening result you will need professional teeth whitening procedure if you need to whiten your smile. It’s best to have both cleaning and whitening to get the best results.

Your dentist may recommend that you should visit the hygienist regularly to help prevent any tooth decay or gum disease which is the leading cause of tooth loss in adults. The frequency of visits depends on your clinical needs and also your personal desire to have the teeth scale and polished. Most of our patients normally have routine teeth cleaning visits every three to six months.

Airflow procedure is a hygiene treatment that uses non-abrasive technology to remove persistent stains on your teeth, plaque, and discolouration using a combination of water, compressed air, and fine powder particles. It is used to access all those hard to reach areas that can’t be done using traditional scaling techniques.

It’s always advised to maintain good oral hygiene habits by regularly brushing (using manual or electric toothbrush), flossing and using mouthwash. However, in spite of all these efforts we still cant clean 100% of plaque which hardens over time and this hardened tartar can’t be brushed off and would require you to visit the dental clinic.

Bleeding gums are caused by inadequate plaque removal which contains millions of bacteria. As the plaque hardens it sets into the gaps between the teeth and gums. The gums become inflamed and then prone to bleeding especially when pressure is applied during brushing or flossing.  Bleeding gums are the most common signs of gum disease.

  • Brush daily but equally important that you do it properly for 2 mins holding the toothbrush at 45-degree angle to the gum line and use rotating action
  • Don’t neglect to clean your tongue
  • Use fluoride toothpaste
  • Floss your teeth regularly
  • Don’t go to bed without brushing your teeth
  • Consider using mouthwash
  • Limit sugary and acidic foods
  • Visit your dentist for check-ups and hygiene appointments at least twice a year
  • Stop smoking
  • Avoid eating sticky foods and eat a well-balanced diet
