Hygiene and Airflow at our Moseley, Barnt Green and Blythe Valley Park practices
Even with excellent brushing, plaque can harden into tartar in places only a professional can reach. Regular hygiene visits are the foundation of a healthy smile.
Airflow uses warm water and a fine powder to lift stubborn stains and plaque from small crevices, often more comfortably than traditional scraping.
Your hygienist checks your gums for early signs of problems and shows you techniques suited to your teeth, along with advice on diet and lifestyle.

Questions we're asked
Hygiene and Airflow FAQs: Birmingham, Solihull and Bromsgrove
How often should I see a dental hygienist?
For most patients with healthy gums, we recommend a visit every 6 months. If you have a history of gum disease, wear braces, or have dental implants, we may suggest a 3-month visit. Your dentist and hygienist will discuss with you what’s best for your teeth and gums.
Can a hygienist whiten my teeth?
While hygiene therapy isn’t a chemical whitening treatment, it can significantly brighten your smile. Techniques like Airflow® are incredibly effective at removing the external stains caused by diet and smoking, revealing the natural, brighter shade of your enamel underneath.
