Hygiene and preventive services

These pages cover routine hygiene care and related preventive checks at Thames Street Dental.

Dental Hygiene / Scale and Polish

Professional cleaning and home-care advice to support gum health and reduce plaque build-up.

Airflow Teeth Cleaning

A guided biofilm therapy option that may help with plaque biofilm and surface staining.

Bad Breath

Assessment where odour may be linked to plaque, gum health, dry mouth or other causes.

Decay Detection

Checks that help identify early tooth decay and plan prevention or treatment.

What a hygienist appointment may include

Your clinician will assess plaque and tartar build-up, gum health, staining and areas that are difficult to clean. The appointment can then be adapted to your mouth rather than treated as a one-size-fits-all clean.

Where helpful, we may also discuss interdental cleaning, brushing technique, diet, smoking, dry mouth, restorations, implants or orthodontic appliances.

Helpful for patients with

  • Plaque, tartar or surface staining
  • Bleeding gums or gum inflammation
  • Bad breath concerns
  • Dental implants, bridges, crowns or retainers
  • Upcoming cosmetic, orthodontic or restorative treatment

Dental hygienist FAQs

A scale and polish is one common hygiene treatment. Your appointment may also include gum checks, Airflow discussion, home-care advice and guidance around specific risk areas.

The right interval depends on gum health, plaque build-up, staining, restorations, medical history and how well your home routine is working. We can advise after assessment.

It can be useful to improve plaque control and gum health before wider dental treatment. The dentist or hygienist will advise what is appropriate for your situation.
