Looking after your Dental Health
Hygiene care that's second to none
Gum disease affects 80% of adults and more than half of all teenagers. It's the biggest cause of tooth loss and is linked to heart disease, premature births, diabetes, lung disease and strokes. But with the right care and attention, the risks can be controlled.
Healthy teeth for life in Alfreton
We believe our preventive oral hygiene advice is the most important service we provide. Healthy gums promote healthier teeth and without healthy gums, cosmetic or dental treatments to restore your mouth's function are not possible.
During your hygiene appointment we allow plenty of time to undertake a thorough cleaning of your teeth and gums. After a session with our hygiene team you will feel and see a real difference in your teeth.
Our hygiene team will: prevent and manage gum disease; deep clean your teeth and gums; relieve bad breath and bad tastes; provide you with a 'healthy gum score' at each appointment; advise on brushing and flossing techniques; recommend interdental products that are right for your mouth; provide tailored diet, lifestyle and smoking cessation advice; offer special care for people with illnesses such as diabetes and cancer; and carry out whitening and air polishing treatments.
