Booking appointments is now made easy

We always want dental health care to be accessible to you. When it comes to booking an appointment or consultation session, it's important that you have several options. You may book online or call our friendly team.

What you can expect during a hygienist appointment

We provide dental hygiene appointments with our experienced hygienists at our dental practice in London to thoroughly clean your teeth and gums. We will also give advice on daily routine for dental hygiene. All the appointments for dental hygiene offer the following services:

Dental Examination

We check for the accumulation of plaque, bleeding, and calculus to detect any inflammation.

Scaling & Polishing

We use advanced tools, including the latest air polishing technology, to eliminate all calculus and plaque. This method employs a powerful stream of air, sodium bicarbonate, and water directed at the teeth to clear away debris and polish the surface.

Dental Hygiene Advice

You can keep the visible areas of your mouth clean regularly between dental hygiene visits. This helps prevent long-term issues caused by inadequate dental care.

Our dental hygienists also offer halitosis treatment at our clinic in London, which can be a result of bad dental hygiene.

3 Steps in Getting Teeth Cleaning and Dental Hygiene

Professional teeth cleaning at a dental clinic involves several steps to ensure thorough cleaning and dental health. Here is a step-by-step breakdown of the procedures with Airflow, scaling, and polishing methods:

Dental Hygiene Step Thumbnail
  • Step 1

    Initial Examination

    The hygienist starts with an examination of your entire mouth. This helps check the overall health of your teeth and gums and to detect specific areas that require extra attention during the cleaning process.

  • Step 2

    Removal of Tartar and Plaque

    A) Scaling:

    This method removes plaque and tartar from the surface of your teeth. Using special instruments known as scalers, the hygienist gently scrapes away these deposits, focusing particularly on areas between the teeth and around the gum line where plaque tends to accumulate.

    B) Airflow:

    This process uses a mixture of air, fine powder, and water to efficiently remove stains, plaque, and soft deposits from the teeth. It is very effective in reaching difficult areas and is less abrasive than traditional scaling.

    C) Polishing:

    After scaling, the teeth are polished. The hygienist uses a brush and a toothpaste-like substance to remove any surface stains and smooth the tooth surface. This makes it very difficult for plaque to adhere.

    D) Flossing:

    The hygienist will floss your teeth to remove any plaque and particles that might have been dislodged during the cleaning process. This helps clean the areas between your teeth that are difficult to reach with a toothbrush.

    E) Rinsing:

    After scaling and polishing, you are asked to rinse your mouth to remove any debris from the cleaning process.

  • Step 3

    Final Inspection and Necessary Advice

    The hygienist conducts a final check and gives personalized advice on dental hygiene practices based on the findings at the time of cleaning.

Dental Hygienist Benefits Thumbnail

Benefits of Visiting a Dental Hygienist

Regular visits to a dental hygienist offer several benefits for your oral and overall health:

  • Removal of Plaque and Tartar Even if you brush and floss regularly, plaque and tartar can accumulate in hard-to-reach areas. A dental hygienist, with necessary tools and expertise, can thoroughly clean your teeth, eliminating these substances and preventing tooth cavities as well as gum disease.
  • Prevention of Gum Disease Regular cleanings can prevent the progression of gum disease, which can cause tooth loss and receding gums if not treated in time. Early detection and treatment are crucial in addressing gum disease.
  • Oral Cancer Screening During a dental visit, the hygienist may check for signs of oral cancer. This is vital for early detection and effective treatment.
  • Education on Proper Oral Hygiene Dental hygienists provide personalized advice on brushing, flossing, and other aspects of oral care. This can help you maintain healthy teeth and strong gums.
  • Detect Dental Problems They can help detect early signs of problems such as broken fillings, tooth cavities, and others, allowing for timely treatment before the issues worsen.
  • Brighter Smile Professional cleaning can remove stains from tea, coffee, tobacco, and wine, leading to a brighter and more attractive smile.
  • Fresh Breath Routine cleanings can help combat persistent bad breath by removing tartar, bacteria, and plaque that contribute to it.
  • Overall Health Benefits Good oral health is linked to your overall health. Poor dental hygiene is associated with diabetes, heart disease, stroke, and other health issues. Regular visits to a hygienist can contribute to better overall health.

reviews-star.pngThe Museum Dental Suites team’s availability, warmth, and high-quality care in a very stressful and challenging dental emergency situation was incredible. We were in the city for a short time just days before I had to deliver a presentation at a large conference in Berlin when a crown on a live tooth came loose! Of course, this was on a Saturday evening to boot. In short, the team was able to get us in the next morning, get my crown not just comfortably but securely re-seated for the duration of the trip, literally making it possible to complete our journey safely and happily.

FAQs

While patients with a good record of dental hygiene can usually expect to see the hygienist every 6 months, those who have had dental treatments such as crowns, bridges, implants, fillings, or dentures should plan more routine appointments with the hygienist.

The frequency of your routine dental hygiene appointments should be determined individually and advised after your initial consultation with your dentist. We recommend routine checkups every six months with your dentist and hygienist to ensure you have a healthy mouth and a confident smile.

The duration of a hygienist appointment will vary based on the condition of your teeth and gums. An appointment typically lasts between 50 and 55 minutes. To reduce the time needed for a hygienist appointment, it is advised to book regular check-ups as directed and maintain the highest standards of oral hygiene between appointments. After an initial consultation with us, we will provide detailed advice about your individual case.

A scale and polish should not cause pain. You might feel an some sensitivity sensation, it is definitely possible to use anaesthetic cream or injections if needs be to dull the pain.
