At Aurum Dental, our professional dental hygiene services in York focus on keeping your teeth, gums and mouth healthy through thorough preventive care. Using professional cleaning techniques and modern dental equipment, our hygienists help remove plaque, tartar and surface staining that brushing and flossing may not fully eliminate.


Your hygiene appointment begins with an assessment of your teeth and gums. Professional cleaning is then tailored to your needs, with attention given to plaque, tartar, staining and areas requiring additional care. We also provide practical guidance to support your daily oral hygiene routine.
Hygiene fees depend on the type and length of appointment required. More complex periodontal or extended cleaning needs may require additional treatment, which will be discussed clearly.
Some patients experience temporary sensitivity or gum tenderness following cleaning. Avoiding professional hygiene care is an alternative, although this may allow plaque and tartar to accumulate.
FAQs:
Does hygiene treatment hurt? Most patients find treatment manageable, although sensitive areas may require additional care.
How often should I see a hygienist? Recommendations depend on your gum health and individual risk factors.
Can hygiene remove all stains? Professional cleaning can reduce many surface stains, although deeper discolouration may require whitening.
For patients across York, our hygiene care combines professional cleaning with personalised advice to support healthier gums and a cleaner smile.
