Prevention

At Geans Clinic we believe prevention is better than cure and prevention isn’t just about cleanings—it’s about building strong, healthy habits and catching small issues before they become big ones.

Dental prevention is all about taking proactive steps to keep your teeth, gums, and mouth healthy—avoiding problems like tooth decay, gum disease, and dental emergencies before they arise. It’s the foundation of lifelong oral health and one of the most cost-effective ways to care for your smile.

About this treatment

Preventative dental care detects problems early—before they become serious or costly. Preventative treatment will help maintain healthy teeth for life, reduces the need for fillings, root canals, or extractions, prevents gum disease, bad breath, and tooth loss and supports overall health (oral health is linked to heart disease, diabetes, and more).

Our hygienists will recommend regular sessions alongside your regular dental check ups usually every 6 months (or more frequently if advised). This ensures early detection of decay, gum issues, tooth wear, or oral cancer.

At Geans Clinic, our Professional Hygiene Appointments include a detailed charting of your gum health, plaque biofilm levels and bleeding score which will predict your risk of future disease. They will then proceed to remove of plaque and tartar that brushing can’t reach. At Geans Clininc our patient are fortunate to receive state of the art Guided Biofilm Therappy using our Airflow machine which not only polishes to prevent staining and smooth tooth surfaces, but breaks up the sticky biofilm that causes gum disease and implant failure.

Each patient will receive tailored oral hygiene advice and provided with a home care plan based on their needs.

Our hygienist can also administer Fluoride Treatments which strengthen enamel and prevent cavities. This is especially beneficial for children or those at high risk of decay such as patients with dry mouth, or certain medications.

FAQs

What is the best age to start seeing the hygienist at Geans Clinic

We recommend hygienist appointments as a way to deliver prevention for all ages.

In children this helps them develop healthy habits, monitor growth, apply fluoride.

In teens, the hygienist can support through braces and changing diets and oral hygiene habits. This age is also crucial in picking up rare, herediate forms of gum disease which can be aggressive and cause early tooth loss. Our dentists and hygienists will start measuring the gum pockets in teens to pick up signs of this early.

In adults the hygienist helps to maintain gum health, manage stress-related issues like grinding.

In older adults our hygienists help monitor restorations, support the oral cavity from things like dry mouth, and problems caused by some medical conditions. They also help support gum health when dexterity or vision issues can prevent patients in being able to properly care for their own mouths.

How long will treatment take?

Between 30-45 minutes depending on how long the hygienist feels will benefit you on a case by case basis

Patient Testimonials

We as a family have been coming to this dentist since it opened. I cannot stress how professional and caring they all are. I myself am a nervous patient and they put me at ease every single time. My son has unfortunately had to have root canal treatment not something anyone likes to endure but they were so careful, gentle and professional that my son wasn’t worried, scared or in pain (he fell asleep). I love this dentist, and recommend you to everyone. Sabrina is AMAZING, such a lovely person.

Anonymous patient

Thank you Sabrina for not hurting me and making me feel at ease! I’m scared to death of the dentist!

Both my wife and I have been in to see you for a few different treatments and on every single occasion we have left feeling happy and confident with the work you have done. My wife was extremely nervous about having any work done but after having the first consultation with you she came away and immediately felt relaxed about seeing you again to begin the treatments. After the experience we’ve had with you I no longer dread having to book in for a check up!

Will you please pass my thanks to Shrina Nathwani for her wonderful, professional care when I had a tooth extracted… I had been dreading the procedure but Shrina made me feel so relaxed and I must say I felt no discomfort. Shrina and the dental nurse who assisted her are a definite asset to your practice.

Anon 1, October 2018

I had excellent service from Shrina, not even any swelling or bleeding after the extraction last week. It’s just such a relief to have this sorted. Thank you for your prompt action.
