Why Everyone Needs Regular Dental Hygiene Appointments
Frequent dental hygiene sessions are a proactive approach to maintaining the health of your gums and teeth. Not only do they shield against tartar and plaque, but they also often detect severe issues before they deteriorate.
Our experienced and passionate dental professionals will work hard to deliver ALL the benefits of thorough hygiene practices.

What to Expect from a Dental Hygienist at Bristol Dental Sedation and Implant Clinic
Most dental hygiene appointments begin with an initial assessment, followed by ‘scaling’ to remove significant plaque and tartar accumulations.
Our dental hygienist employs scalers and curettes to gently eliminate deposits, utilising mirrors to pinpoint areas of concern.
After our dental hygienist finishes cleaning your teeth, they’ll shine and polish them to remove superficial staining. If decay is detected, fluoride or antibacterial gel will be applied.
Understanding the Different Stages of Gum Disease
Good dental hygiene can prevent or delay early-onset gum disease. It’s important to spot the tell-tale signs of the condition in order to seek treatment as quickly as possible.
Healthy Gums and Teeth:
Maintained through good daily hygiene.
Gingivitis:
Characterized by red and inflamed gums due to tartar.
Periodontitis:
Inflammation leads to gum separation from teeth, causing premature bone loss.
Advanced Periodontitis:
Ongoing bone loss results in loose teeth prone to falling out.
What Happens if Tooth Fissures Are Discovered?
Over time, small grooves and crevices may develop on tooth surfaces — particularly in molars — leading to the accumulation of plaque, tartar and bacteria, ultimately causing tooth deterioration. Our dental hygienist in Bristol will apply a fissure sealant to fill these grooves and prevent decay.
Protecting Your Teeth through Good Dental Hygiene
Regular visits to our dental hygienists are an excellent way to care for your gums, teeth, and overall dental well-being.
