As part of our periodontal assessment we’ll ask you how you clean your teeth and discuss with you whether you are doing everything possible, or whether there are any changes we can suggest. We’ll provide detailed training in any changes to the oral hygiene routine that may benefit you.

It takes an extra 5 minutes per day to make these changes to your oral hygiene, but having a thorough oral hygiene routine helps to prevent many dental problems and may also help you to avoid costly treatment in the future. It’s important to remember that without a good oral hygiene routine it is difficult to properly control periodontal disease.
