At Shirley Dental Practice, oral hygiene treatments are delivered by a dental hygienist in Croydon and Bromley. Your teeth are thoroughly and comfortably cleaned to remove the stain; plaque and calculus build-up, a procedure known as scaling and polishing. Patients with dentures, bridges, dental implants and other orthodontic appliances have special hygiene needs that are professionally and efficiently taken care of.
Our Dental Hygienists also:
Administer fluoride treatments
Take dental impressions
Apply dental sealants
Deep scaling and root planning to treat mild to moderate periodontitis
A key aspect of the dental hygienist’s role is to show you how to look after your teeth and gums so they remain healthy and disease-free. During your first appointment, you will be advised on the best techniques for brushing, flossing, and using interdental brushes.
We recommend regular hygiene appointments to ensure that your mouth stays healthy and clean. For more information about our hygiene treatments in Bromley and Croydon or to book an appointment, call Shirley Dental Practice today.
We are closed from the 24th December 1pm until the 2nd January 2026.
