Keeping your gums and teeth clean is the first and most important step towards good oral health.

At Alexandra Dental, we offer all patients appointments with our dentists and hygienists who are trained to clean and polish teeth, provide advice and to spot any issues that may need additional intervention.

We believe that preventative treatment helps achieve healthy teeth and gums, and a sparkling smile.

Our hygienists are highly trained in helping patients maintain their oral health. They will work with you to develop a positive oral care routine at home and can advise you on areas such as diet and correct cleaning procedures.

Parents may find it useful to see our hygienist in order to learn how to properly take care of their young children’s teeth.
