Frequently Asked Questions About Hygienist Treatments
While daily brushing is essential, it cannot remove hardened plaque (tartar). A hygienist uses specialised tools to clear this stubborn buildup, directly preventing gum recession, cavities, and bad breath (halitosis) that a standard toothbrush simply cannot resolve.
A hygiene clean is not a bleaching treatment, but it will make your teeth appear naturally brighter. By expertly removing tartar deposits and surface stains caused by smoking, tea, or coffee, the true colour of your enamel is instantly revealed.
Routine cleans are typically completely pain-free. If you have sensitive teeth or severe gum inflammation, you might feel mild discomfort. To ensure your comfort, we offer longer appointment times for a gentle approach and can apply a topical anaesthetic cream to numb your gums beforehand.
Yes, you can usually eat and drink straight away. However, if you undergo a prophy jet (airflow) clean for targeted stain removal, you must avoid highly staining items like tea, coffee, red wine, beetroot, and smoking for at least two hours.
Most patients benefit from a professional hygiene visit every six months. If you suffer from bleeding gums, periodontitis, or wear orthodontic braces, your dentist may prescribe more frequent visits (such as every three to four months) to keep aggressive plaque buildup under control.
If your gum treatment requires a series of visits, we can help make it easier to manage financially. Klarna allows you to divide the total cost into three fixed monthly payments, so you can continue your care without interruption.
