Dental Hygienist
At East Mews Dental Care, we have a team of highly skilled and experienced dental hygienists and dental therapists. They are here to look after your oral health, providing patients with routine hygiene visits and helping with periodontal disease.
For patients who have stained teeth (tea, coffee, smoking, red wine all contributes to this) our hygienist can provide a specialist ‘airflow’ scaling which removes stains quickly and easily.
A large proportion of the population suffers unknowingly from gum-related problems because the signs are often painless and individuals are hence unaware that anything is amiss.
Over time, gum illness will typically cause teeth quality to scale back and eventually the loss of the affected teeth. Gum illness is caused by a build of microorganism that stays within the plaque and calculus(tartar) on your teeth. We consider the diagnosis and prevention of gum disease a priority. Healthy gums are the inspiration for all the work we do.
Our highly trained and motivated works closely with our patients to realize the absolute best results possible.
With your co-operation and our expertise, skill, and delicate techniques, we’ll assist you to take care of a healthy mouth and keep your teeth for all times.
Why dental hygiene is important for all
Gum disease is the leading reason for tooth loss. Most adults will have some inflammation in their gums at some point in their lives.
Gum health is so vital to the health of our teeth and there are also links to general health including cardiovascular disease and diabetes.
Professional and friendly dental hygienists
At East Mews, we focus on gum health. Our dentists and dental hygienists work together to create a personalised plan to improve and maintain your gum health.
This is achieved through thorough dental cleaning and giving you the tools, knowledge and motivation on how to look after your gums at home in between visits with the use of interdental cleaning, which is highly important in maintaining healthy gums.
