A hygiene appointment plays an important role in keeping your teeth and gums healthy. While brushing and flossing at home are essential, there are areas of the mouth that are difficult to clean effectively without professional help.
Regular hygiene visits help remove plaque and tartar, reduce the risk of gum disease and keep your mouth feeling fresh.
At the start of your appointment we will assess the health of your gums.
This may include checking:
Understanding your gum health allows us to tailor your treatment and home care advice.
Plaque forms naturally on teeth throughout the day. If it is not removed regularly it can harden into tartar, which cannot be removed with a toothbrush.
During your hygiene appointment we carefully remove plaque and tartar from the teeth and along the gum line.
This process helps reduce the bacteria that can cause gum disease.
Once the teeth are clean, they are usually polished to remove surface stains and leave the teeth feeling smooth.
This can help improve the appearance of your smile and make it more difficult for plaque to stick to the teeth.
One of the most valuable parts of a hygiene appointment is advice tailored to you.
We may show you:
Small changes to your daily routine can make a significant difference to your oral health.
The ideal frequency of hygiene appointments varies between patients.
Some people benefit from visits every six months, while others may need to attend more frequently depending on their gum health.
We will recommend the most suitable interval for you during your examination.

Brushing your teeth is important… but it’s only part of the story 🦷
In this video, Richard explains why cleaning between your teeth matters too - and the different ways you can do it, including:
✔ Floss
✔ TePe brushes
✔ Water flossers
Your toothbrush can’t always reach the tight spaces between your teeth, which means plaque and food can build up in these areas over time.
Cleaning between your teeth daily can help reduce:
✨ Gum problems
✨ Bad breath
✨ Tooth decay between teeth
Not sure which option is best for you? There’s no one-size-fits-all approach, and our team can help you find what works best for your smile and lifestyle.

Do you wake up with jaw pain, headaches or tension in your face? You could be clenching or grinding your teeth without even realising it.
In this video, Yasmin discusses how neurotoxin injections may help relieve symptoms associated with TMJ problems and teeth grinding.
For some patients, treatment can help to:
✨ Relax overactive jaw muscles
✨ Reduce clenching and grinding
✨ Ease tension and discomfort
✨ Help with headaches linked to jaw strain
Many people grind their teeth during sleep or clench during stressful periods, often without knowing they’re doing it.
If you’ve been experiencing symptoms such as:
• Jaw ache
• Facial tension
• Headaches
• Worn teeth
• Clicking or tightness in the jaw
…it may be worth exploring your options.
