Why see a Hygienist

At Evolve Dentistry, our Dentists work closely with our Hygienist team to provide the most comprehensive care for our patients. Our Hygienists are here to support our patients with the care of their teeth and gums.

Whilst you will need to see your Dentist regularly for your healthy mouth reviews to diagnose any decay or treat complex dental issues, you can see a Dental Hygienist rather than a Dentist for any gum related issues and to help with prevention of dental disease.

What does a Hygienist do?

Hygienists are trained to maintain and treat any level of gum disease or periodontal disease and support you with your oral health care. Over time soft plaque in the mouth can calcify and causes inflammation of the gum, harbouring bacteria. Our Hygienists will remove these hard deposits and making it easier for you to maintain at home.

They can also provide advise on how best to look after your teeth and gums at home. This may include changing your toothbrush or toothbrushing techniques and showing you how to clean in between your teeth with something like floss or an interdental brush.

They can also take impressions, X-rays, arrange tooth whitening with a prescription from a Dentist, fissure seal children’s teeth to protect them and perform oral cancer screening.

At Evolve we can see patients that are not registered with the practice. To book an appointment with one of our Hygienists, call us on 01275 842 550.

If you’ve never visited Evolve before, here’s a little look around.

We know that walking into a new dental practice can feel daunting, particularly if it’s been a while since your last appointment.

We’ve designed Evolve to feel calm, welcoming and a little different from what you might expect from a dental practice.

But the most important part isn’t the building. It’s how you’re made to feel when you’re here.

Come in, make yourself comfortable in our patient lounge and let us look after you.

Gum disease can be surprisingly easy to overlook.

Bleeding when you brush, red or swollen gums, persistent bad breath or gums that seem to be receding are all things worth paying attention to.

The important thing is not to wait until something hurts. Gum disease can develop without causing pain, which is one reason regular dental and hygiene appointments matter.

In this short video, Yasmin explains some of the signs to look out for.

If you’ve noticed a change in your gums, mention it at your next appointment or get in touch with the team.

Ever run your tongue over your teeth and wonder why they suddenly feel rough?

There are a few possible reasons, from plaque build-up to changes in the surface of a tooth.

In this short video, Yasmin explains some of the common causes and when it’s worth mentioning it to your dentist.

Noticing small changes in your mouth is useful. You don’t need to diagnose them yourself, but do tell us if something feels different.
