Preventative Maintenance
At the Hertfordshire Centre for Dentistry- disease prevention is at the heart of all we do and we believe that this is the most important part of providing comprehensive expert care.
We strongly believe that our patients should be equipped with the tools and knowledge to best maintain their oral health at home to help keep everything healthy and the smiles long lasting. By organising preventative treatments such as hygiene appointments, as well as educating and building healthy habits to use at home, we can prevent issues like gum disease, bad breath, cavities, tartar build up, enamel loss and bone loss.

Frequently Asked Questions
We recommend seeing a hygienist at least every 6 months but your dentist will be able to advise you on the best recall for your oral health
Our hygienists will use a combination of hand scaling and ultrasonic scaling to remove any hardened plaque/tartar along with a polish paste at the end of your treatment. The hygienist will also tailor bespoke oral health advice for you to best look after your teeth and gums at home.
Seeing a hygienist regularly not only makes sure that things are clean, smooth and fresh for you at home, but regular maintenance can also protect against diseases such as gum disease, cavities and enamel or bone loss.
