What is Dental Hygiene Treatment?

Gum disease (gingivitis) is a very common problem and symptoms such as inflammed gums, bleeding, sensitivity, receding gums and pain on brushing can all be signs of this. It is the leading cause of tooth loss, which is why at Ruh dental we take a preventative approach to gum disease, as it is very treatable.

However, if gum disease persists over a long period of time and progresses, it can eventually affect the supporting structure of the teeth which can result in pain, infections, wobbly teeth and even tooth loss. This is known as periodontitis, a more severe form of gum disease.

 

At Ruh Dental our focus is on prevention and this is why we believe it is critical to visit the hygienist regularly to assist you in maintaining the health of your gums and prevent gum disease.

 

This is provided through regular maintenance cleaning at least twice a year, oral hygiene instruction and education.

Got my Invisalign and whitening with dr Kunal at the Fleet Street branch and it really has been life changing. He’s given me the confidence to smile and laugh without covering my mouth. Very professional and listens to what i wanted and always exceeded my expectations. Also makes the entire Invisalign journey easy and comfortable as he was always there to answer any questions I had at any time. Highly recommend ruh dental and dr Kunal. It really is the best decision I’ve made. Had so many compliments on my teeth, even by strangers.

I couldn’t be happier with my experience at Rüh Dental. The staff are all really friendly and helpful, and every step of the treatment was clearly explained with no sales pressure at any time. My dentist was amazing and I’m so pleased with the outcome.

frequently asked questions

How can I remove staining from my teeth?

Teeth can stain for a variety of reasons due to the food and drink we consume and other activities such as smoking. This can result in discoloured and yellow looking teeth. During a hygiene visit, our hygienists can remove this staining using specialised instruments which can make your teeth look whiter and provide advice on how to avoid staining on teeth.
