At Feltham Dental Care we understand that oral hygiene is vital for your dental health and your overall wellbeing. Prevention is always better than cure. We recommend regular hygiene treatments to ensure your mouth, teeth and gums remain in great condition.
Bleeding gums and other gum problems are something we take very seriously. Hygiene therapy will reduce the risk of developing several serious medical conditions linked with gum disease. A surprising 90 per cent of us suffer from gum disease at some point in our lives. But with carefully considered dental care, the risks can be mimimised.
Our high quality dental hygiene services will help to keep the mouth free from tooth decay and gum disease, it can also prevent and treat bad breath.
Gingivitis is a mild form of gum disease that causes inflammation and irritation of the gums, typically caused by a buildup of plaque on teeth. If left untreated, it can progress to periodontitis, a more serious form of gum disease that can cause damage to the bones and tissues that support the teeth.
Periodontics is the branch of dentistry that focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of gum disease, including both gingivitis and periodontitis.
Regular professional cleaning, combined with home care will maintain healthy teeth and gums.
Research has shown that good dental hygiene significantly reduces the risk of new cavities and gum disease.
Gum deterioration is also linked to heart disease and there are concerns around poor gum health in heart patients. Regular hygiene is also recommended in pregnant women.
Regular visits to the dental hygienist for scaling and polishing, together with oral hygiene instructions can keep your gums healthy and your mouth feeling fresh. This will reduce or completely resolve the problem of bad breath.
Good diet and lifestyle can also help prevent oral disease.
At Feltham Dental Care, we will polish the teeth after every scaling treatment and this will help brighten the teeth.
We also offer airflow treatment to remove stubborn, heavy staining.
If you have any concerns regarding further staining of the teeth, we will be happy to discuss teeth whitening as an option.
If you are looking for a straighter smile, we offer Invisalign® clear aligners, one of the most advanced orthodontic options and the new way to straighten your teeth.
A dental implant is a long lasting solution to missing teeth, be it one tooth or a whole arch. If implants aren’t for you, we also offer a range of other treatments such as dentures.
Cosmetic dentistry should always aim to produce natural-looking results for patients. Our range of cosmetic treatments can help you with teeth.
