Dental hygiene care focuses on preventing the development of tooth decay, gum disease and tooth surface loss. At Bandlish & Auplish, we take a preventative approach to dentistry, supporting you in maintaining a healthy mouth for life. Our dental hygienist plays a key role in this process, helping you protect your oral health both during and after treatment with your dentist or periodontist.
A hygiene appointment involves much more than just a scale and polish. It includes a full assessment of your gum health, tailored oral hygiene instruction, and proactive advice to reduce risk factors. We work with you to identify early signs of disease and support long-term prevention through education and clinical care.
Regular hygiene visits can significantly reduce the risk of gum disease, tooth decay and long-term dental complications. Gum disease, in particular, can develop slowly and without noticeable symptoms. When left untreated, it can lead to gum recession, pockets between teeth and gums, and eventually tooth loss. Our hygienist helps prevent this through routine deep cleaning and personalised care plans.
Cleaner teeth, fresher breath and reduced inflammation all contribute to a healthier smile. We also use your appointment as an opportunity to screen for early signs of dental disease and discuss lifestyle factors such as diet and smoking, which can influence oral health.
Your hygiene appointment begins with a thorough examination of your teeth and gums. We assess the condition of your mouth, check for signs of disease and review your current hygiene routine. You’ll receive a full professional clean, removing plaque and calculus that brushing and flossing alone cannot reach.
We then develop a personalised plan for at-home care. This includes tailored advice on brushing technique, interdental cleaning, diet and, where appropriate, smoking cessation. At each subsequent visit, we reassess your oral health and make adjustments to your plan as needed. Our goal is to support you in maintaining a stable, healthy smile between appointments.
Our practice integrates dental hygiene closely with general and specialist dentistry to provide a complete care pathway. Whether you are undergoing periodontal treatment with Dr Gita Auplish or simply maintaining your oral health, our hygienist ensures you are supported with detailed, preventive care throughout.
We take the time to personalise each visit so that you leave with not only cleaner teeth but also the confidence and knowledge to care for your smile effectively at home. Patients trust our proactive approach, clinical expertise and long-term focus on preserving natural teeth and gum health.
