Protecting Your Oral Health with Professional Care
At Great Northern Road Dental Clinic, our hygienists play an important role in helping patients across Dunstable maintain fresh, healthy smiles. Regular hygiene visits not only keep your teeth looking their best but also reduce the risk of gum disease, tooth decay, and bad breath.
Why Is Dental Hygiene Important?
While brushing and flossing are essential, they can’t remove all plaque and tartar. Professional hygiene care ensures your mouth stays healthy and can prevent problems before they develop.

Dental Hygiene FAQs
1. How often should I see a hygienist?
We usually recommend a visit every 6 months, though some patients may benefit from more frequent appointments.
2. Does a scale and polish hurt?
No, most patients find hygiene treatments comfortable. If your gums are sensitive, we can use numbing gel for extra comfort.
3. Is hygiene treatment available on the NHS?
Routine hygiene appointments are generally private, but if cleaning is clinically necessary for gum disease, it may be available under the NHS.
4. Can hygiene visits really help with bad breath?
Yes. By removing bacteria and plaque build-up, hygiene treatment often improves bad breath significantly.
5. Are children encouraged to see a hygienist?
Yes, hygiene visits are a great way to teach children good oral habits and prevent problems early.
