Dental Hygiene
At Spondon, we are champions of preventive care, emphasising a clean mouth to avoid dental issues.
Our Dental Therapists, offer specialised hygiene sessions to help keep your mouth plaque-free.
Why it is important:
- Plaque; a mix of bacteria and food, can accumulate everywhere in the mouth.
- Regular removal prevents tooth decay, gum disease, and other complications. When neglected, plaque hardens into tartar, which attracts even more plaque due to its rough surface.
- Tartar varies in colour and needs professional removal. During your hygiene visits, we use specialised tools to eliminate tartar and polish your teeth.
For frequent hygiene care, join our Hygiene or Perio plans. [Link for more details.
