Description:
A dental hygienist plays an important role in maintaining healthy teeth and gums. Regular visits to a hygienist help prevent dental problems such as gum disease, plaque buildup, and tooth decay.
At First Dental, our dental hygienist provides professional cleaning and oral hygiene care to keep your mouth healthy and fresh. During your visit, plaque and tartar that cannot be removed through regular brushing are carefully cleaned to protect your teeth and gums.
Routine hygiene appointments also help identify early signs of dental issues before they become more serious. By maintaining regular hygiene visits, you can improve your oral health and keep your smile looking its best.
Treatment:
What happens during a dental exam?
During your appointment, the dental hygienist will carefully examine your teeth and gums to assess your overall oral health. Plaque and tartar buildup will be removed using specialised dental tools, followed by polishing to smooth the tooth surfaces.
The hygienist will also check for early signs of gum disease, tooth decay, or other oral health concerns. If necessary, further treatment may be recommended by the dentist.
You will also receive personalised advice on brushing, flossing, and maintaining good oral hygiene at home to help keep your teeth and gums healthy between visits.
