FAQ
Hygienist FAQs
Calculus (tartar) can accumulate on your teeth, which you can't remove at home. This buildup can lead to gum disease. A hygienist uses special tools to clean it off and offers tips to slow down its formation. Regular visits to a hygienist are essential for everyone, including dentists!
No, brushing with a toothbrush and toothpaste physically removes plaque and bacteria, reducing the risk of cavities and gum disease. Mouthwash alone doesn't achieve this.
However, using a fluoride mouthwash after meals can be beneficial as it provides fluoride and neutralizes acids from bacteria and food. Avoid rinsing with water or mouthwash immediately after brushing to retain the fluoride from the toothpaste, which offers topical benefits.
Consuming dark-colored foods and drinks such as tea, coffee, red wine, and curries, as well as smoking, can stain your teeth. It's best to minimize these to maintain a bright smile.
