Hygiene Appointments
Fresh breath & a sparkling smile
Regular dental hygiene visits prevent the build-up of dangerous disease-causing plaque, remove staining so teeth retain their natural lustre and help maintain fresh breath.
Gum disease is the biggest cause of tooth loss and is linked to heart disease, bacterial lung infections, diabetes, premature births, strokes and more. It is a silent but nasty disease impacting around 80% of adults and more than half of all teenagers but with regular care, it can be kept at bay.
Modern dentistry has solutions to restore your teeth’s function and enhance their aesthetic but none of that can be achieved without a healthy foundation of gums, which is why we prioritise and promote our dedicated hygiene service so passionately.
Experienced hygienists
Our exceptional, dedicated hygienists will help you to achieve long term dental health. Following a thorough assessment of your periodontal status we will formulate a customised treatment plan that will result in incremental improvements to the look and health of your teeth and gums,and less frequent visits with your dentist.
Here at Highgate Dental Practice, we help you maintain strong, resilient teeth, free from pain, discomfort and lacklustre appeal. We want you to enjoy the confidence that comes with fresh breath, healthy teeth and an attractive, stylish smile.
Advanced Cleaning Technology
We have combined our passion for prevention with our desire for your smile to look its best by investing in the very best hygiene cleaning technology from Switzerland.
Our Swiss-made EMS technology introduces Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT) that can clean up to 100% of the harmful plaque (biofilm) from your teeth and gums – painlessly! Why is that so important? Because it is the only way to prevent gum disease and tooth decay.

What is Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT)?
- Professional tooth cleaning with GBT is like a wellness spa experience for your smile. Biofilm is almost invisible to the naked eye and can only be totally removed once it is made visible.
- Using disclosing tablets to pinpoint the biofilm on your teeth, our hygienists identify the areas you are missing with your usual brushing technique and show you how to protect your teeth forevermore.
- During your hygiene session we will gently but thoroughly remove the biofilm and hard plaque (calculus) from your teeth and gum pockets using a variety of special cleaning heads, warm water, air and flavoured powder. This is sometimes knows as Airflow®.
