01Professional teeth cleaning
- C002
- M03
The foundation of good oral care. We remove tartar and plaque with ultrasonic instruments, polish away staining from coffee, tea and tobacco, and finish your teeth until they are smooth. New plaque clings far less readily to smooth enamel.
What happens
- Inspection of teeth and gums
- Tartar removal above the gum line
- Polishing away coffee, tea and tobacco staining
- Polishing for a smooth finish
- Fluoride treatment where useful
- Personal brushing advice for at home
02Gum treatment
- T012
- T022
Bleeding gums are not normal — they are inflammation. In a gum treatment we clean below the gum line, where the bacteria that attack the bone around your teeth take hold. We measure pocket depth, treat where it matters and monitor the recovery.
What happens
- Full periodontal examination with pocket measurement
- Deep cleaning below the gum line
- A phased treatment plan matched to severity
- Aftercare and reassessment once healed
- Findings reported back to your dentist
- An extended 80-minute appointment
03Preventive check-up
- C002
- M01
Most cavities and gum problems announce themselves quietly. In a preventive check-up we assess your oral health systematically, map the areas at risk and agree a plan to keep things that way.
What happens
- Systematic assessment of your oral health
- Early detection of decay and gum inflammation
- Tailored risk assessment
- Fluoride treatment where needed
- Advice on diet and habits
- Agreeing the right check-up interval
04Tartar removal
- C002
- M03
Tartar is hardened plaque and brushing will not shift it. We combine ultrasonic instruments with hand scaling, so the areas behind the lower front teeth and between the molars get genuinely clean.
What happens
- Ultrasonic cleaning for heavier deposits
- Hand finishing for precision
- Attention to the inside of the lower front teeth
- Cleaning around crowns, bridges and implants
- A smooth finish to slow its return
- An explanation of where the tartar comes from
05Introduction and advice
- C002
- M01
Not sure which treatment you need, or returning after several years away? This is the right appointment. We take a look, discuss what you have noticed yourself and make a plan. Nothing is treated without your agreement.
What happens
- An introduction with no pressure to treat
- Assessment of your current oral health
- Going through brushing and flossing technique together
- Advice on brushes, pastes and interdental brushes
- Dietary advice where relevant
- A concrete next step — or confirmation that all is well
06Children's dental hygiene
- C002
- M01
- M03
Children who learn early that the hygienist is nothing to fear keep coming back. We work calmly, explain everything in age-appropriate language and involve parents in brushing at home. Getting used to the chair is fine; a first visit does not have to include treatment.
What happens
- A calm, child-friendly approach
- Gentle cleaning of milk and mixed dentition
- Brushing instruction made playful
- Age-appropriate fluoride advice
- Attention to diet and drinking habits
- Practical tips for parents
