Your Dental Hygiene Journey
1. Consultation
The first step on any treatment journey with us at our Wimpole Street dental practice is an in-depth consultation, as it helps us to assess your smile, gives us the opportunity to look over your dental history, and ensures you can discuss your treatment in advance – with absolutely no commitment.
2. Treatment
One of the main parts of your treatment will be a scale and polish, which helps keep your smile bright, breath fresh, and teeth healthy. This professional clean can remove staining and calculus (hard areas of plaque) which brushing alone won’t shift. In turn, this can help prevent problems such as inflammation and gum disease, as well as calculus below the gums, which can loosen the teeth. Finally, it’s a chance to check for evidence of other oral health concerns, including oral cancer, signs of infection, decay and bone loss.
3. Aftercare
Our Marylebone dentists are committed to dental excellence – so in our minds, the treatment doesn’t end when you leave our dental practice. Our dental experts will share tips and techniques on how to care for your smile and signs that problems may be setting in.
