The scale and polish is probably the most common treatment patients receive, it is also without doubt the most important. At Rejuvadent we have hygienists who are dedicated to maintaining your gums in a healthy condition and liaising closely with the dentists who will work on the teeth themselves. Over the last 50 years the importance of preventive care has become more apparent, we are now aware that good oral hygiene advice can make the difference between losing and saving a tooth.

Still more recently a link has been found between gum disease and coronary disease; it appears that the toxins from the bacteria in plaque may directly affect the heart and so the removal of plaque and calculus has become even more important!

Our hygienists can advise you on how and when to brush, what sorts of brush and toothpaste to buy, the use of other cleaning aids, fluoride supplements and diet.
