Oral hygiene

To help create and maintain a beautiful and healthy mouth and smile, brushing twice daily is not always enough. Tooth loss in adults can be caused by periodontal (gum) disease; this is due to bacterial plaque forming on the tooth surface, causing inflammation of the gums. Common signs of gum disease are; swollen and bleeding gums when tooth brushing and flossing.

Working closely with Dr. Greenwall our excellent and friendly team of Oral Hygienists, Diane and Della provide a tailor-made preventative care programme, for each individual patient to help them achieve and maintain a high standard of oral hygiene.

Diane and Della also provide excellent preventive care for children, helping them with tooth brushing, providing topical fluoride when required, dietary advice, and fissure sealants. All this is done in a professional, yet friendly and relaxed way, on a one- to- one basis.
