Dental Hygiene Bursledon, Southampton

Smilemakers is pleased to be able to offer the latest in Dental Hygiene treatments, Guided Biofilm Therapy, or GBT for short. 

GBT is scientifically proven to provide the ultimate in dental cleaning. Through a controlled stream of air, water, and very fine antibacterial powder, our hygienists can remove biofilm, stains, and early tartar from all surfaces like never before. This cleaning is more effective than traditional methods whilst simultaneously being kinder to gums, teeth, implants, and dental restorations.

Should you be one of the few people not suited to GBT, we also offer conventional hygienist appointments with our highly skilled hygiene team.

GBT requires specialist equipment and training and should not be confused with the ‘air polishing’ offered by some dental practices. Using Guided Biofilm Therapy, our hygienists are able to offer a more effective, gentler and more comfortable way to look after your smile. Contact us today to book your GBT appointment

Frequently asked questions about Dental Hygiene

Regular visits to the dental hygienist are an exceptional way to ensure good oral hygiene. For dental treatments like routine cleaning, receiving advice, surface stains, or preventative care to keep your mouth and gums healthy, feel free to book straight in with the dental hygienist.

However, if you’re experiencing issues such as pain or sensitivity, or are in need of more complex care, it may be worth booking in with your dentist first to make sure everything is in order. For more information, get in touch with the practice.

We want our patients to trust our services completely and access stellar care when needed.

That’s why we’ve worked hard to implement transparency at the clinic, with our fees available to see online. Additionally, we have payment plan options to split costs into more manageable chunks each month.

With their extensive knowledge and skills available, visiting the hygienist regularly can offer a multitude of benefits. During the hygiene appointment, it’s an excellent opportunity for your hygienist to spot any early signs of dental problems, such as gum disease or tooth decay, and rectify them before they worsen.

With professional cleanings, you can reduce these risks further while enhancing your oral and overall health. Plus, you can receive essential, personalised advice that’s catered to your individual needs.
