Why Are Dental Cleanings and Gum Disease Treatments Necessary?
The only way to have your teeth properly cleaned is to visit a professional. Professional dental cleanings get rid of the hard-to-reach plaque and calculus that form on the teeth over time. Plaque is bacteria that sticks to the teeth after you eat or drink something. In most cases, it is kept under control by daily brushing and flossing. If it’s not taken care of through daily dental hygiene practices, then calculus may build up. Calculus damages the enamel of the tooth and can cause extreme tooth decay. A professional is the only one who can properly remove these build-ups with a thorough dental cleaning.
Failure to treat plaque and calculus can lead to gingivitis. This is the earliest stage of gum disease and is characterized by gums that are swollen, bleeding, red, or sensitive during the brushing and flossing process. If left untreated, gingivitis will eventually turn into a more serious form of gum disease that is medically known as periodontal disease. Our clinic offers periodontal treatment that you should pursue immediately if it is determined that you have advanced gum disease.
Can You Give Me Information on Bad Breath Management?
Do you find yourself embarrassed by having chronic bad breath issues?
If so, then you may have an issue called halitosis. Many people in the United Kingdom suffer from this problem. It can be caused by the foods you eat, lack of proper oral hygiene, or severe tooth decay. No matter what the reasons are behind it, our dentists can offer you the cleanings, treatments, and at-home hygiene recommendations you need to rid yourself of your halitosis once and for all.

Can I see a hygienist if I am not registered with you?
Yes, you can still use Pura Dental Care for your hygienic deep clean. You will require a full hygiene prescription from your regular dentist, which can only be prescribed after they have completed a full mouth assessment as per GDC guidelines. The note will be valid for the same duration as the recall, so you will need to renew after this time has passed.
