Mosman Dental Hygienist
Hygienists are professionally trained in diagnosing and treating gum problems. Gum disease shows up as red, puffy, bleeding gums (gingivitis) or pain, mobile teeth, halitosis (bad breath), discharge (periodontitis-a more severe form of gum disease).
Sometimes the presence of Periodontitis reflects that a systemic illness is occurring (such as Diabetes Mellitus, White cell disorders, coronary heart disease etc), therefore it is essential to be aware of how healthy your gums are.
Benefits of Seeing a Hygienist Regularly include:
- Prevention of dental disease
- Early identification of disease and timely treatment, which is time and cost efficient for the patient,as problems are addressed while they are small
- Maintenance of teeth and gums at an optimal level of health
- Increasing self esteem and confidence.
We generally recommend seeing a Hygienist every six months, however for some people this can be too much, and for others too little. The hygienist will advise the best course of action for each individual.
Dental Hygienist, Alice Kucera
Hello, I’m Alice.
I am a passionate, gentle and enthusiastic Dental Hygienist. I received my Bachelor of Oral Health with Distinction from the University of Newcastle in 2013. My focus is on preventative dentistry and I work together with the Dentists at Mosman Dental Clinic to deliver comprehensive oral care.
As well as a thorough clean and polish, I provide all my patients with individualised oral hygiene instruction and advice at every appointment so that you can achieve and maintain optimum oral health.
I also provide teeth whitening services using the Opalescence BOOST 40% system which is the strongest product available on the market.
Normally this hour-and-a-half session costs $750 but for the month of October, we are offering it for $600. Please call one of our friendly receptionists to make an appointment on (02) 9969 5765.
