Exceptional Hygienist Experience September 2024

Why should you visit the dental hygienist?

Your local dental hygiene practice can help you maintain optimal oral health whatever your age and previous dental experience. Dental hygienists work in collaboration with dentists and other members of the dental team, providing patients with comprehensive dental care. They can carry out dental cleaning to remove plaque and tartar buildup, helping to reduce the risk of tooth decay and gum disease.

Dental hygienists are experts in preventative dental care helping to reduce the need for more complex procedures. A private hygienist appointment can provide you with valuable guidance on proper oral hygiene practices. A dental hygienist can also screen for more serious conditions such as oral cancer, allowing for early diagnosis and treatment.

How often should you see a dental hygienist?

For most people, a visit to the dental hygienist to help ensure fresh breath from routine cleaning once every three months is advised. Some people with more specific or complex oral and dental care needs may require more frequent visits for a hygienist deep clean and other treatments.

When you visit the dentist for the first time as a new patient they will draw up a treatment plan that advises on the recommended frequency of hygienist visits.

What treatments do dental hygienists give?

Dental hygienists provide a range of preventive and therapeutic dental and oral health treatments. As well as deep dental cleans, they may also carry out oral cancer screenings, sealant application and X-rays. They also provide personalised advice on oral and dental hygiene to match the patient’s particular needs, as well as advice on oral hygiene practices and recommendations on brushing techniques, flossing and other cleaning methods.

Do dental hygienists work with dentists?

Your dentist and dental hygienist work in collaboration as part of the dental healthcare team. While your hygienists can perform a number of dental and oral procedures independently, they work closely with dentists to provide comprehensive dental care to patients. Dental hygienists specialise in preventive care, helping to reduce the need for further dental treatment.
