Prevention

On any list of oral healthcare we will always put prevention at the top. We feel it is vital to educate our patients to have the skills and knowledge to prevent deterioration of their dentition prior to treatment, and to look after their newly restored teeth and gums as effectively as possible. This treatment is usually carried out by one of our hygienists.

Regular visits with a hygienist play a vital role in the prevention of tooth decay, gum disease and bad breath. Hygienists are also very important in motivating younger patients to adopt good habits early in life, which help prevent a lifetime of dental treatment.
