Approximately 75% of teeth are lost through gum disease and the rest through tooth decay, both of which are preventable.
Claire Gazzard our hygienist trained full time for two years at dental school and specialise in the prevention of periodontal (gum) disease. Each dentist screens the patient for periodontal disease and makes them aware of the findings which often involves one or more hygiene appointments.
We also offer hygiene appointments for our younger patients to encourage good oral hygiene habits from an early age at no cost.
