Dental Hygiene FAQs
Yes. Trafalgar House Dental Practice welcomes new patients looking for professional dental hygiene care in Truro. Please contact our team and we’ll help you arrange the most appropriate appointment for your needs.
How often you should see a dental hygienist depends on your individual oral health and risk of gum disease. Some patients benefit from more frequent hygiene appointments, while others may need routine visits less often. Your dentist or hygienist can recommend an interval based on the health of your teeth and gums.
Your hygienist will assess your teeth and gums and professionally remove plaque and tartar from areas that can be difficult to clean at home. Your appointment may also include EMS Airflow to remove biofilm and surface staining, along with personalised advice on brushing and interdental cleaning.
EMS Airflow is a professional cleaning system that uses a controlled combination of warm water, air and fine powder to gently remove biofilm, plaque and surface staining. It can be particularly useful for cleaning difficult-to-reach areas and around dental restorations and orthodontic appliances.
EMS Airflow is designed to provide a gentle and comfortable cleaning experience and uses warm water, which can be helpful for patients who experience sensitivity during professional cleaning. Your hygienist can assess your individual needs and adapt your treatment where appropriate.
Yes. Bleeding gums are often associated with inflammation caused by plaque accumulating around the gumline. Professional hygiene care can help remove plaque and tartar, while your hygienist can also advise you on improving your brushing and interdental cleaning at home. Persistent bleeding should be assessed to determine the underlying cause.
Dental hygiene appointments at Trafalgar House Dental Practice start from £108. The treatment recommended will depend on your individual oral health and hygiene needs.
