A preventative approach to dental care
At Kibworth Dental, gum health matters as much as your teeth. Gum disease is common and, left untreated, can lead to bleeding, pain, infection and tooth loss, but it's also one of the most preventable conditions in dentistry with the right care.
Your hygienist starts by checking your current oral health and hygiene routine, then gives you clear, practical advice to keep your gums healthy at home. From there, they carry out a full clean and polish, with Airflow stain removal available for a brighter, stain-free finish.
We recommend scaling every 3-6 months, depending on your needs. Prevention is simple, comfortable, and far easier than treating problems later.

A regular clean and polish removes plaque and tartar to keep your gums healthy. AirFlow goes a step further, using a gentle jet of air, water and fine powder to lift stubborn surface stains from tea, coffee, wine and smoking, leaving a noticeably brighter finish.
