Dental hygiene
Good oral hygiene is the first step in ensuring that you have a bright healthy smile… for life. At Green Park Dental we take oral hygiene very seriously and our professional hygienists are happy to offer advice on maintaining a good oral health routine, as well as lifestyle tips that will help keep your teeth and gums healthy.
Your hygiene appointment
We recommend regular visits with one of our expert hygienists for the best preventative care. At your appointment your hygienist will give your teeth and gums a detailed check – looking for any signs of gum disease, such as inflammation, bleeding gums or plaque build up. They will then give your teeth a thorough clean and a scale and polish, to remove all plaque and calculus. They will also be able to offer comprehensive advice on a daily hygiene routine that you can follow at home.
Your daily oral health routine
As part of your daily routine you should brush your teeth morning and night with a fluoride toothpaste, ensuring that you are cleaning all surfaces of your teeth and gently massaging the gum margins, use an interdental aid such as floss or interdental brush to remove plaque from between your teeth and also use a mouthwash to target those hard to reach areas between your teeth. You could also invest in an electric toothbrush. We have toothbrushes, mouthwash and floss all available to buy at the Practice.
Gum disease
Gum disease affects a large percentage of adults in the UK. Preventing gum disease is not only beneficial for the health of your teeth and gums, but gum disease has also been linked to other serious medical conditions such as heart disease and diabetes. Our hygienists can help you to keep your teeth and gums healthy, with regular hygienist appointments, and advice on following a good oral health routine and maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
