Dental hygiene and preventative care
Hygiene
Looking after your smile starts with a strong foundation. At No.22, our hygienist appointments go beyond a simple clean — they’re an essential part of keeping your mouth healthy, your teeth looking their best, and preventing problems before they start.
Whether you visit regularly or it’s been a while, we’ll make sure your experience is thorough, gentle, and refreshingly personalised.
What Does a Hygienist Do?
At No.22, your hygiene care is in the expert hands of our highly skilled dental therapists, Susie and Jen. They do much more than just clean teeth — they’re here to help you maintain excellent oral health, prevent gum disease, and keep your smile looking its best. Through gentle, thorough cleaning and personalised advice, they’ll support you in caring for your teeth at home and spotting any issues early, before they become more serious. Their friendly, approachable manner ensures every visit feels relaxed, informative, and refreshingly thorough.
You don’t need to see a dentist first — we offer direct access appointments, so you can book in with Susie or Jen whenever you need to.
Why Regular Visits Matter
Seeing a hygienist regularly is one of the most effective ways to protect your long-term oral health. These appointments help prevent gum disease, tooth decay, and even tooth loss — often before you notice any symptoms yourself.
They also play a key role in maintaining the results of cosmetic treatments like whitening or bonding, keeping your smile looking its best. At No.22, we see hygiene as essential, not optional — it’s the foundation of a healthy, confident smile for life.
