Do you suffer from sensitive teeth or does your gums bleed quickly? Do you notice that the teeth start to move a little and do you suffer from bad breath? All of these things can indicate poor oral hygiene. 

When we refer you to the dental hygienist, this does not always mean that there are bad teeth. But it is important that the dental hygienist treats your discomforts to prevent worse. Or rather, that together with the dental hygienist you are ahead of diseases thanks to regular maintenance. Preventive oral care, in other words. In these situations, a visit to the dental hygienist is recommended:

• When a certain condition or disease affects the quality of the teeth and gums, or vice versa. Think, for example, of diabetes or cardiovascular diseases;
• When you want to prevent sensitive tooth necks and withdrawn or bleeding (inflamed) gums. Every tooth can have to deal with this;
• When you suffer from cavities;
• When you suffer from bad breath;
