THE BASICS
What Happens at a Hygiene Appointment?
Your hygienist removes plaque and tartar build-up with an ultrasonic scaler, polishes away surface staining, and checks your gums for any early signs of inflammation or disease — measuring gum pockets where needed.
You’ll also get honest, specific advice on your brushing and flossing technique, because the right routine at home makes a real difference between visits.
Ultrasonic Scale & Polish
Removes plaque and tartar build-up that brushing alone can't reach.
Stain Removal
Lifts surface staining from tea, coffee, red wine, and smoking.
Gum Health Monitoring
Checks for early signs of gum disease before it becomes a bigger problem.

Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Most patients benefit from a hygiene visit every six months, though if you're managing gum disease your dentist may recommend more frequent visits.
Most patients find it comfortable, though areas with a build-up of tartar or inflamed gums can feel slightly sensitive. Let your hygienist know if you're uncomfortable at any point.
Your dentist diagnoses and treats dental problems; your hygienist focuses specifically on cleaning your teeth and gums and preventing gum disease. The two work together as part of your care.
Early gum disease (gingivitis) can often be reversed with good hygiene care and improved home routine. More advanced gum disease (periodontitis) can be managed and controlled, though existing damage isn't always reversible — early treatment matters.
It will remove surface staining and leave your natural teeth looking brighter and cleaner, but it isn't a substitute for professional teeth whitening if you're looking to change the underlying shade.
Yes — let your hygienist know beforehand so they can adjust their approach and recommend products to help with sensitivity.
