Prevention is the best treatment!
We believe at Chiswick Dental the prevention is the best way to stay healthy. Our dental hygienists give you a bespoke plan to maintain your oral health.
What they do? Hygienists liaise with your dentist to help you prevent periodontal (gum) disease. They remove plaque and tartar from your teeth and will give you the professional advice you personally need to stay dentally fit.
Why is dental hygiene important?
There are a number of reasons why we should maintain the highest levels of oral hygiene. A few serious examples of problems caused by poor oral hygiene are:
- Gum disease
- Plaque build-up
- Unsightly stained teeth
- Bad breath
- Tooth loss
- Cavities
Most of our patients build up a relationship with their hygienist who know what specifically works for them, and what dental products they need to use to stay dentally fit.
They monitor your progress over time and can alert you to any changes in your daily life that could affect your dental health.
EVEN MORE HYGIENE AVAILABLE!
WE HAVE INTRODUCED EVEN MORE HYGIENE SESSIONS SO YOU CAN GET APPOINTMENTS WHEN YOU WANT, FASTER.

I AM A NEW PATIENT AND I ONLY WANT TO SEE THE HYGIENIST. WHAT ARE THE RULES?
Under current Dental legislation, Dental Hygienists have to work under a prescription of a Dentist. It is for this reason, we are not allowed to book appointments with Dental Hygienists only.
New patients have to register and be seen by a Dentist who will formulate a plan of treatment, which is presented to the Hygienist.

I AM AN EXISTING PATIENT AND I WANT TO SEE THE HYGIENIST IN BETWEEN MY CHECKUPS?
As you already have a prescription in your notes, you can make an appointment to see the hygienist directly. Please make an appointment in the usual manner with the hygienist.
I AM ALREADY REGISTERED WITH A DENTIST, BUT WOULD LIKE TO SEE YOUR HYGIENIST ONLY.
This is possible. If your own Dentist is referring you to our Hygienist, a letter of referral and a treatment plan will be required. Our Hygienist will send a report of her care to your dentist at the end of her treatment. The charges are paid to our practice.
