Great dental practice. Had my teeth cleaned with Emily the hygienist and she used the airflow which reduced the sensitivity so much. Also in the process of starting Invisalign with Jade and she has been so informative and helpful!

Aimee H

An excellent dental practice. Welcoming staff and reassuring Covid precautions complement a very good hygienist and a dentist (Ana) who always makes me feel a valued patient by combining competent treatment with a willingness to discuss any concerns.

Fred Frost

My wife and I have just joined this practice and went to have our first check ups with them. My wife Liz went to see Ana and I saw Tiago they were both excellent. The hygienist Angie cleaned our teeth without the use of that horrible high speed drill. Brilliant.

What to expect during a dental hygiene treatment?

During a dental hygienist treatment at TG’s Dental Suite, our experienced dental hygienist will give your teeth and gums a deep cleaning and scaling to eliminate trapped food and plaque, while also checking for signs of early decay.

Your teeth will also be polished to ensure you leave the appointment with spotless teeth and fresh breath.

Dental check-ups

Life gets busy and it's easy to forget about maintaining your oral health, but regular dental check-ups at our practices in Ashby-de-la-Zouch, Higham Ferrers, Leicester, Earls Barton, and Rugby are important to keep your teeth and gums healthy.

Routine dental check-ups include visual examinations of your teeth, gums and mouth, and an oral cancer screening, allowing us to determine how healthy your teeth are and helping us to detect problems at the earliest signs, to address them before they become more serious.

Your oral health and gum disease

Early tooth decay can be difficult to detect, but it can be identified during a comprehensive examination and X-ray, which is why we recommend regular dental check-ups.

Early detection of gum disease helps prevent damage to your tooth, which makes it easier and less expensive to treat.

Gingivitis is the early stage of gum disease, causing red, swollen, and bleeding gums. When left untreated, gingivitis can lead to periodontitis, a type of infection that causes discomfort and difficulty eating, and lead to tooth loss at an advanced stage. We can replace missing teeth with cosmetic dentistry, but the best treatment is to catch gum disease early and prevent the need for cosmetic dental work.

Great oral health and fresh breath

 Bad breath is a common issue that can be a result of several different health issues.

Most commonly, persistent bad breath is a result of sulphur gases emitted by bacteria coating the teeth, gums, and back of the tongue, but the good news is that regular dental hygiene appointments and consistent brushing and flossing can effectively combat plaque build-up and help you maintain a clean mouth, leading to fresher breath.
