Seeing a hygienist
Dental Hygienists are specially trained to clean your teeth to a high standard, removing plaque buildup and preventing gum disease.
Seeing a hygienist during your treatment can help support your oral health by keeping plaque buildup at bay and providing a professional cleaning.
What to expect from a hygienist
Hygienists work alongside dentists to provide treatments that prevent plaque buildup, tooth decay and gum disease and they play a key role in your overall dental health.
Appointments with a hygienist usually involve a professional and thorough cleaning of your teeth. Typically called a scale and polish, these appointments are mainly spent removing plaque and tartar buildup on your teeth.
Your hygienists can also advise about correct cleaning methods, products and routines, plus information about diet and preventing tooth decay.
Who can see a hygienist?
As a result of their specialist training, Hygienists can provide professional cleaning, maintenance and advice to patients of all ages including those undergoing orthodontic treatment.
Having a hygienist appointment can be useful for anyone wanting more information on keeping their teeth clean when wearing braces. Your hygienist can introduce you to products such as interdental brushes, floss and different types of toothbrushes and how to use them during your treatment.
At Braces & Faces Orthodontics, we are passionate about patient care and we believe that maintaining simple oral health practices is as important as any other aspect of your treatment.
