Regular dental hygiene appointments can help keep your smile happy, healthy, and brighter than ever.

At Newholme Clinic, our highly trained team knows just how important good dental hygiene is. It is the foundation upon which good oral health is based and can mean the difference between a happy, healthy smile and one with tooth decay or gum disease.

FAQs

How often should I have a hygiene appointment?

Most patients use this service every six months or so. We recommend frequent visits in order to prevent the build-up of tartar and plaque, as this can lead to bacteria forming in the mouth, which in turn can cause infection and tooth decay.

What happens during a hygiene appointment?

At your regular dental hygiene appointments, our highly trained hygienists will assess your gum health, checking for any signs of gum disease before performing a thorough, professional clean. After, we’ll be able to help develop a personalised dental hygiene treatment routine based on your own unique needs.

Why is it important to regularly visit the dental hygienist?

With such regular visits, our hygienists will also be able to keep an eye on gum health. If gum disease is found to be present, we may recommend more frequent visits in order to get the gums back in good health through regular monitoring. In advanced cases, your hygienists and our dental team will work together to treat the issue.

What should I be doing at home to help my dental hygiene?

Our hygiene team will be able to design a personalised action plan if needed, but for all our patients, we recommend brushing the teeth twice a day for two minutes with a fluoride toothbrush, flossing regularly, and changing out your toothbrush or toothbrush head every three months.
