Let’s prevent problems before they begin
HIGH-TECH TEETH-CLEANING WITH AIR-FLOW
Air-Flow combines air, water and fine powder to ‘pressure-wash’ your teeth gently and effectively. As well as lifting away stains, it’s is a great way to prepare patients for teeth whitening or to maintain the whiteness of your smile long after you’ve invested in a whitening treatment. Your dentist may also recommend Air-Flow cleaning if you’ve had restorations or dental implants – all of which require careful monitoring of oral hygiene. Air-Flow is also great for anyone who wears braces, enabling us to clean more effectively during treatment, and restore your enamel to full health afterwards.

It’s really important that along with a regular check-up with your dentist, you also see the hygienist at Kensington Dental Practice. Why? Because while your dentist will focus on identifying and treating problems as they arise, the hygienist’s role is to prevent those problems from happening in the first place. Your hygienist is trained to help you stay on top of plaque and tartar, which continually forms around your gum line and isn’t always easy to remove through brushing alone. It’s crucial to see the hygienist for a regular, professional deep clean (either a scale and polish or Air-Flow treatment). In addition, the hygienist will provide tailored advice and product recommendations to ensure you are looking after your teeth correctly at home.

I had a long consultation with the dentist, he seemed extremely knowledgeable, I was certainly very impressed by the discussion and treatment plan that was put together. the consultation was lengthy and i didn’t feel rushed at all which was great. The treatment is almost finished and i have been very happy with the process and results. I am certainly glad i have found this dentist. they also have a very good hygienist.
I had a very good experience visiting, very friendly and professional team. During my visit to dentist I was provided with treatment plan and they kindly tried and managed to fit me in to see the hygienist as well as the dentist, I strongly recommend them to everyone.
