If you're a new patient, it might be best to book a check-up first
You don’t need to have a check-up to book your hygiene appointment, but if you’re a new patient it’s best to book a check-up first to fully assess your oral health to determine the next best course of action – and how often you’ll need a hygiene visit, for example.
In cases where patients are experiencing significant gum inflammation or gum disease, we may recommend visiting the hygienist every 2-3 months, rather than every 6-12 months.dental hyg
From your initial check-up appointment, our hygienist will review the dentist’s notes and be able to better target your oral health concerns with clear direction. This way, the dentist and the hygienist can work in conjunction to reverse any signs and symptoms of gum disease and decay that we uncover.
