A healthy smile starts with great everyday care, and that’s where our dental hygiene team comes in. At Sandes Avenue Dental Practice, we offer gentle, professional hygiene treatments designed to protect your teeth and gums, prevent future problems, and leave your mouth feeling fresh and clean.
Good dental hygiene is about more than just a cleaner smile. It’s one of the most effective ways to maintain long-term oral health, and we’re here to make it easy.
A scale and polish is a gentle but thorough cleaning treatment that removes plaque, tartar, and surface stains from your teeth, the kind of build-up that daily brushing can’t always reach. It’s an effective way to prevent gum disease and keep your smile looking its best.
During your appointment, our hygienist will use professional tools to remove hardened deposits from around the gum line, followed by a polish to smooth the surface of your teeth. The result? A cleaner, brighter smile and a fresher feeling mouth.
Regular hygiene appointments with our dental hygienist in Kendal are a vital part of long-term oral health. They help reduce the risk of tooth decay, gum problems, and even bad breath, while giving us a chance to spot any signs of concern early.
Healthy gums are the foundation of a strong, lasting smile. We focus on gentle, preventative care to help you avoid gum disease and protect your oral health in the long term.
Routine hygiene appointments allow us to spot any signs of inflammation early and remove the plaque and tartar that brushing alone can’t reach. We’ll also give you personalised advice on brushing technique and flossing so you feel confident looking after your gums at home.
Common signs of gum issues include bleeding when brushing, bad breath, and gum tenderness. If you’ve noticed any of these, don’t worry, we’re here to help with calm, supportive care and treatment tailored to you.
A healthy smile isn’t just about brushing, your daily routines and lifestyle choices play a big part too. For more personalised advice, speak to our friendly dental hygiene team at your next visit.
01
Coffee, tea, and red wine can discolour your teeth over time. Try rinsing with water after drinking, or enjoy them in moderation.
02
Smoking affects your gum health and increases the risk of staining and oral disease. Minimising exposure to smoke will also minimise risk.
03
Frequent sipping on fizzy or sugary drinks can erode enamel. Enjoy them in moderation using a straw, or stick to just water as the best choice to keep your smile clean and hydrated.
04
Plaque builds up throughout the day, brushing before bed is one of the most important habits for dental hygiene and decay prevention.
