General Cleaning
Dentistry advocates for the principle of prevention. It is recommended to have biannual cleanings and examinations. Not only do they help you quash dental problems before they arise, they leave your gums healthier, and your teeth cleaner and whiter. A professional cleaning removes hard plaque that cannot be removed by brushing and flossing alone. It also involves a fluoride treatment and polish to help protect and soothe your teeth and gums.
At Smile Studio the average hygiene visit lasts about one hour, this enables our doctors check your gum health, the condition of your teeth and fillings, do a thorough cleaning and polishing and offer individualised preventive advice to help you stay healthy.
