Protect your beautiful smile with routine hygiene appointments

Hygiene appointments are needed alongside dental check-ups to ensure the build-up of plaque and tartar gets regularly removed.

Leaving this type of residue to linger on your teeth can put you at great risk of advanced gum disease. In severe cases, tooth loss can occur as a result of gum disease, and it’s far more common than you think. Gum disease is the primary cause of tooth loss in adults across the UK.
