HYGIENIST

Our hygienist can clean your teeth and gums as well as offer advice on your daily oral hygiene routine. Routinely having your teeth and gums professionally cleaned can help prevent tooth decay, gum disease and problems such as bad breath. We at Dental Sense strongly believe in prevention and our highly skilled hygienist plays a central role in this.

Periodontal disease can occur at any age and over half of all people over the age of 18 have some form of the disease. Unfortunately, the disease process is usually asymptomatic and painless however can be easily detected during regular dental examinations. The most common type of periodontal disease are gingivitis and periodontitis, for patients with periodontitis (advanced gum disease) a full periodontal exam may be indicated.

Gum disease can cause bad breath, receding gums and loose teeth and is the leading cause of tooth loss.

Using our sophisticated Florida Probe and Imaging Techniques  our hygienists and clinicians can identify and treat all stages of periodontal disease.   By accurately recording and mapping levels of disease we can tailor treatments to your individual needs and subsequently monitor them.

MOUTH CANCER SCREENING

Mouth cancer is a malignant growth which can occur in any part of the mouth, including the tongue, lips and throat. Mouth cancers have a higher proportion of deaths per number of cases than breast cancer, cervical cancer or skin melanoma. The mortality rate is just over 50%, despite treatment, with about 1,700 deaths per year in the UK. This is because of late detection. Visit your dentist at once if you notice any abnormal problems or are not sure. Routine dental checkups will allow for early detection!
