The benefits
Reasons to Visit a Dental Hygienist Regularly
Regular dental hygiene sessions are a great way to be proactive about the health of your gums and teeth. Not only do they offer protection from tartar and plaque, but they also often pick up serious problems before they get the chance to deteriorate.
- Receive a thorough cleaning and inspection
- Reach the parts of your teeth even the best electric toothbrush can’t reach
- Scale and polish treatments remove harmful plaque and tartar deposits
- Avoid gum disease with regular visits
- Avoid bad breath and staining
1 – Healthy Gums and Teeth
Always the result of good everyday hygiene.
2 – Gingivitis
Gums become red and inflamed due to tartar.
3 – Periodontitis
Inflammation eventually causes the gums to separate from the teeth — sparking premature bone loss.
4 – Advanced Periodontitis
As bone loss progresses, teeth become increasingly loose and prone to falling out.
How it works
What to Expect from a Dental Hygienist from Astro Dental
Most dental hygiene appointments begin with an initial assessment — followed by ‘scaling’ to remove significant plaque and tartar accumulations. Your dental hygienist will use scalers and curettes to gently remove deposits, using mirrors to identify areas of concern. After a thorough clean, the hygienist will then shine and polish your teeth to remove superficial staining. If decay is identified, fluoride or antibacterial gel will be applied.
The process
Dealing with Tooth Fissures
Over time, small grooves and crevices can develop on the surface of your teeth. Most common in molars, these fissures can lead to the accumulation of plaque, tartar and bacteria — eventually causing the deterioration of the teeth.
Your dental hygienist in Caerphilly will apply a fissure sealant to fill the grooves in your teeth and prevent decay.
