Dental hygiene treatments are one of the easiest ways to maintain the health of your teeth and gums. By gently scaling and polishing your teeth, a dental hygienist can remove deposits of plaque, which can cause decay, bad breath, staining and bleeding gums and help keep them free from plaque in the future.

At Quayside Dental and Implant Centre we have a full-time, caring and professional hygiene team who provide preventative care focused on treating gum and periodontal disease. With more than 25 years of combined experience across Ireland and the UK, our hygiene team is skilled, enthusiastic and passionate about our patients.

They aim to motivate you to follow their detailed and personalised instructions so you can enjoy a lifetime of happy and healthy teeth.

What To Expect During A Hygiene Visit

During your visit the hygienist will gently scale and polish your teeth, removing plaque buildup, before showing you techniques to reduce any further deposits from developing between visits.

They will also take the time to talk about any dental issues or concerns you may have and will work with you to create your own personalised care routine.

MEET OUR HYGIENE TEAM

Our friendly and welcoming hygiene team are very passionate about educating our patients on the best way to keep their gums and teeth healthy and free of disease. Their enthusiasm is infectious! They understand the importance of building trust and confidence with their patients.

FAQs

The Benefits Of Seeing A Hygienist

HOW WILL THE HYGIENE TEAM HELP ME?

Our supportive and enthusiastic team will create a tailored approach to your oral health and provide a comprehensive plan to battle against periodontal (gum) disease. With their skills and experience, you can achieve optimum oral health through education, cleaning and thorough detox of your mouth.

WHAT HAPPENS IF I DON’T TREAT GUM DISEASE?

Untreated gum disease creates strong acids that destroy fibres attached to your teeth, causing ‘pockets’ which are extremely difficult to clean. These pockets can cause:

● Gum shrinkage
● Tooth loss
● Bleeding, swollen, spongy and painful gums
● Foul tastes and bad breath
● Loss of bone supporting the teeth
● Loose and/or ‘gappy’ splayed front teeth
● Abscesses

WHAT IF I NEED EXTRA TREATMENT?

Our hygiene team will always work within their scope of experience and practice and will only carry out treatments they are trained to do. If they find issues outside their realm of expertise, they will let you know it’s time to see the dentist.
