The importance of regular visits to your dentist and hygienist in Fulham

Visiting the dentist on a regular basis helps make sure that your teeth and gums are clean and healthy. It also helps make sure that any dental issues are detected earlier on so that they can be treated effectively and successfully, before they are able to cause further complications to surrounding teeth and gums. Our dentist also recommends that you visit the hygienist at least twice a year to remove excess plaque and tartar from your teeth to prevent dental complications.

Plaque and tartar are the main cause of an array of dental issues and have a detrimental impact on both the appearance of your smile and the health of your teeth. If you have been avoiding the dentist for a long period of time, either due to dental anxiety or a phobia, then you may have significant levels of plaque and tartar on your teeth and gums which will require a professional scale and polish to remove. You can speak to our dentist about sedation techniques if you are nervous about visiting the hygienist, however once you address your fears you will find that following a visit with our hygienist here your teeth will not only appear cleaner, whiter and brighter, but it will also help promote better oral health at the same time.
