WHY ARE REGULAR HYGIENE APPOINTMENTS IMPORTANT?
At all of our practices we believe in preventation therefore hygiene appointments are crucial in:
✔ Protecting your whole mouth and supporting long term health
✔ Removing harmful plaque and tartar using professional tools
✔ Preventing Gum Disease which is the #1 cause of tooth loss — but early cleaning and monitoring can stop it in its tracks.
- Research shows regular scaling and polishing significantly improves gum health.¹
✔ Fresher Breath & Brighter Smile
Bad breath and staining often start below the surface — professional cleaning reduces bacteria and surface stains for a confident smile.
✔ Detecting Problems Early
Your hygienist screens for signs of gum disease, infection, and oral cancer — catching issues when they’re easiest to treat.
✔ Supporting Overall Health
Did you know that poor oral hygiene is linked to heart disease, diabetes complications, and respiratory infections?²
Routine hygienist visits help reduce inflammation and bacterial spread that contribute to these systemic issues.
What research says?
📌 A review in the Journal of Clinical Periodontology confirms that regular professional cleaning reduces gingivitis and periodontal inflammation more than brushing alone.¹
📌 Studies published in BMC Oral Health show that hygienist appointments can help reduce risks associated with cardiovascular disease and diabetes.²
Who Should Book a hygienist appointment?
✔ Adults & teens
✔ People with bleeding or sensitive gums
✔ Anyone with bad breath or staining
✔ People managing diabetes or heart health
✔ Anyone who loves their smile!

This is so that patients who are with Jannie or Ajay can have a hygienist appointment at the same visit. But also our lovely Jen has decided to move out of the area. She will be missed by our staff and patients.
We have some highly experienced hygienists who also work at Rose House Dental who will be offering hygienist clinics on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Did you ever wonder why a toothache sometimes turns into a headache?
The answer lies in the trigeminal nerve, one of the largest and most complex nerves in the head. This nerve carries sensory signals from the face, including your teeth, jaw, and gums, straight to the brain. When a tooth is inflamed or infected, it can overstimulate the trigeminal nerve, which may then trigger pain signals that spread to the head, causing a headache.
The solution take painkillers in the first instance if you can and need it and then book yourself an emergency appointment so that we can resolve the dental issue.

Did you know you shouldn’t rinse your mouth after using toothpaste? If your parents taught you to rinse with water ( like mine did) then this means the fluoride in the toothpaste is not given a chance to strengthen your teeth.
Shares with others who rinse not spit!

Remember going abroad to get dental treatment may seem cost effective initially but in the long run are you going back to them if that treatment goes wrong? Our dentists assess on a case by case basis whether they can deal with complications of dental treatment carried out abroad- in most cases we will not be able to treat as the workmanship is so bad.
When considering dental treatment abroad ask yourself these questions:
1. Do they have the right qualifications? Have you checked them out on a dental register?
2. Do they follow clinical standards?
3. Do they use good safe quality materials? Can they guarantee their work?
4. Do they follow good infection control and sterilising methods? We have so many procedures and policies in place to ensure that safety, cleanliness and quality is our main focus.
Can you guarantee that the place you visit abroad is?
Nearly every dentist is seeing the results of dental tourism.
✈️Our surveys show 95% of dentists have examined patients who have travelled abroad for dental treatment.
✈️Of those 86% say they have treated cases that developed complications.
✈️Patients need to understand the risks.
