Regular hygiene appointments play a crucial role in preventing gum disease by addressing potential issues before they escalate. The accumulation of plaque and tartar on teeth can lead to gingivitis, the early stage of gum disease. If a patient already has gum disease our hygienist, will create a bespoke treatment plan and work with the patient to stabilise their gum disease.
By attending regular hygiene appointments, individuals actively engage in preventive care, reducing the risk of more serious dental issues in the future, mitigating the progression of gum disease and promoting overall oral well-being.
