Why is hygiene important?

Keeping your teeth and gums clean is the first and most crucial step toward maintaining lifelong oral health. Regular hygiene appointments not only keep your smile looking fresh and bright, but they also help to prevent gum disease, cavities, and bad breath.

At DNTL Smiles & Wellness, our dedicated hygienists and dentists provide professional cleaning, personalised advice, and early detection of dental issues, ensuring you receive the best possible care.

Preventative care for healthy teeth and gums

We believe that prevention is key to maintaining strong, healthy teeth and gums. Our highly trained hygienists work with patients of all ages to:

  • Remove plaque and tartar to help prevent gum disease and tooth decay.
  • Polish and brighten teeth: For a cleaner, fresher smile.
  • Receive personalised oral hygiene advice to help you refine your brushing and flossing routine.
  • Offer dietary guidance: Advice on foods and drinks that can impact your oral health.
  • Support parents and children: Helping families establish great dental habits from a young age.

Advanced Airflow® tooth polishing

At DNTL Smiles & Wellness, we offer Airflow® tooth polishing, an advanced cleaning method that is:

  • Faster and more effective than traditional polishing.
  • Pain-free – Ideal for sensitive teeth.
  • Perfect for stain removal – Helps remove deep staining from tea, coffee, and smoking.

This gentle yet powerful treatment leaves your teeth feeling smoother, cleaner, and fresher in just one session.

Trusted hygiene care for dental implants

If you have dental implants, maintaining them is essential for long-term success. Our hygienists have undergone specialist training with leading periodontists to provide improved implant maintenance and care.

  • Professional implant cleaning every six months, as recommended by the latest guidelines.
  • Specialist tools and techniques to prevent damage to implant surfaces.
  • Personalised advice on keeping your implants healthy for years to come.

By investing in professional implant hygiene care, you’re protecting your smile and your long-term oral health.

Concerned about your gums? Our skilled periodontists can help

For patients with advanced gum disease (periodontitis), hygiene therapy alone may not be enough. Our skilled periodontist provides professional diagnosis and treatment for gum disease, helping to prevent further damage and tooth loss.
