Dental Hygiene Therapist
Do your teeth feel fine, but perhaps they aren’t quite as clean as you’d like or are stained from tea or coffee?
Do you need a helping hand to get between the gaps and make sure there is no plaque build up?
Our Dental Hygiene Therapist at Briercliffe Road can carry out everything a Hygienist can do such as scale and polish, advice to help stop smoking, periodontal treatment (gum treatments) as well as treatments such as teeth whitening (under the prescription of a Dentist), child and adult fillings, temporary fillings or dressing, recement crowns with temporary cement, child extractions as well as Oral Cancer screening.
Dental Hygiene Therapist in Burnley
Our Dental Hygiene Therapist practises Direct access meaning you don’t have to see a Dentist first. Some Hygiene Therapists will only work under the prescription from a Dentist meaning you need to see a Dentist prior to having a hygiene appointment sometimes known as a Scale and Polish. If you are looking to have a Scale and Polish in Burnley give us a call on 01282 415104
Please note: an appointment via direct access to our Dental Hygiene Therapist is not an alternative to seeing the dentist on a regular basis. Rather, it’s a valuable addition.
