Preventative Dentistry

For most people, a regular hygiene visit as part of their preventive dentistry program, is only needed every six months. However, because each person is different, we’ll advise you when we should see you next. For example, if we are working together to treat periodontal or gum disease, we may recommend more frequent visits; perhaps every three to four months. Similarly, if other health conditions could be impacting your oral health, a check and clean at shorter intervals can form part of a more comprehensive approach to managing your condition. This is particularly relevant for patients who have undergone chemotherapy or are on medications which may be prescribed for certain medical conditions. We provide the added reassurance of taking an integrated approach to your health. With your permission, we’ll coordinate with your doctor or specialist to ensure your receive the very best care.
