Dental hygienists in London

Dental hygienists are professional health care providers who provide a complementary function to that of the dentist.  They are trained to clean and polish patients’ teeth and also offer advice on general oral health such as flossing, diet and brushing.  Some hygienists are also qualified as radiographers and will assist with X-rays in the practice.

Non-invasive procedures such as fluoride coating of teeth and anti-bacterial treatments of the gums maybe carried out by the hygienist.  They are able to remove plaque and tartar and restore the good appearance of your teeth.  These hygienist sessions form an important part of your overall dental care regime and are an inexpensive way to keep your teeth in optimum condition.  Having your teeth professionally cleaned by a hygienist can also maintain the life of crowns, fillings and implants and prevent any minor issues turning into expensive problems.  Ask your Forest & Ray and dentist about our hygienist service.
