Advanced Biological Dental Hygiene Care
Dental hygiene at Mint Dental Hygiene goes far beyond a conventional clean.
Our approach combines advanced periodontal care with a biological, whole-health perspective — focusing on the oral biofilm, gum health and the individual factors that can influence the health and balance of your mouth.
A More Personalised Approach
Every mouth has its own unique environment. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, your care is tailored to your periodontal health, oral biofilm, dental history, lifestyle and individual risk factors.
Your appointment may include:
- Comprehensive periodontal assessment and ongoing gum-health monitoring- Advanced biofilm management above and below the gumline- Phase-contrast microscopy and Advanced Biofilm Mapping, where appropriate, to explore the microorganisms present in your plaque- Minimally invasive ultrasonic debridement to disrupt biofilm and remove calculus while preserving healthy tissues- Air polishing for gentle and effective biofilm and stain removal. - Non-Toxic Polishing Paste: To finish off your new gleaming smile, we use a non-toxic polishing paste that contains no fluoride, flavours, preservatives, or colours. It still removes stains and debris just as well! - Dental implant and peri-implant maintenance - Digital radiographs and clinical imaging, where indicated, to help assess and monitor your oral health- Personalised preventative care, including brushing, interdental cleaning and product recommendations See What's Happening in Your Mouth
We believe understanding your oral health is an important part of improving it.
Clinical photographs, radiographs and, where appropriate, live microscopy can help you see areas of inflammation, biofilm and other changes that may otherwise be difficult to appreciate.
This allows us to move beyond simply cleaning your teeth and focus on helping you understand why problems are occurring and how to prevent them from returning. Oral Health Is Part of Whole-Body Health
The mouth doesn't exist separately from the rest of the body.
Research continues to demonstrate important associations between periodontal inflammation and systemic health, including conditions such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
Our biological approach considers your oral health alongside relevant medical history, medications, lifestyle and other individual factors — with an emphasis on prevention, early intervention and maintaining a healthy, balanced oral environment.
