For most patients the Dental Hygienist should be visited every 3 to 6 months.  At The Dental Co. we offer 30 or 40 minute appointments to suit your treatment needs.

During your appointment your teeth will be cleaned professionally using specialist equipment.  In addition to a regular scale and polish, the hygienist can also offer our popular “Air Flow” stain removal treatment. This treatment can remove stubborn stains including those from tea, coffee, smoking and red wine.  

The hygienist will provide you with a personalised plan to ensure you are using the correct cleaning methods and aids, such as floss and interdental brushes. This is effective in minimising plaque build-up in between your appointments. 

The benefits of seeing the hygienist regularly include reduced risk of developing tooth decay therefore minimising your need for dental treatment, reducing the risk of tooth loss and enhancing breath.
