Hygiene Treatments in Bollington.
At Bollington Dental, our skilled team of hygienists and hygiene therapists is here to help you maintain excellent oral health.
For a deeper clean and stain removal, you can add Airflow teeth cleaning to any hygiene appointment for £20.
Hygiene appointment prices
Hygiene appointments cost £60 for 20 minutes or £89 for 30 minutes, with Airflow cleaning and stain removal available as a £20 add-on to either. All prices are on our fees page. Please note we do not offer direct access hygiene: hygiene appointments are for patients under the care of our dentists, and new patients start with an initial examination.
Why hygiene appointments matter
Bleeding gums when you brush are not normal: they are the earliest sign of gum disease, which is the biggest cause of tooth loss in adults, and in its early stages it is completely reversible with professional cleaning and good home care. Regular hygiene visits remove the hardened tartar that brushing cannot, keep your breath fresh, and protect the investment in any dental work you have had done.
What happens at a hygiene appointment?
Your hygienist will assess your gum health, remove plaque and tartar with a professional scale, polish your teeth, and show you the brushing and interdental techniques that make the biggest difference for your particular mouth. Add Airflow and stubborn staining from tea, coffee and red wine goes too.
Regular hygiene appointments are essential – not just for a clean, fresh smile, but for the long-term health of your teeth and gums. During your visits, we gently remove hardened plaque (calculus) from above and below the gumline to prevent inflammation and gum disease. Left untreated, plaque-driven gum inflammation (gingivitis) can progress into more serious conditions such as gum disease (periodontitis), which can lead to tooth loss.
Our team will also provide personalised advice on your home care routine, helping you to clean more effectively between appointments and keep your mouth in its greatest possible condition.

Bothered by tooth staining?
Let your hygienist know – many surface stains caused by coffee, tea, smoking, or certain medications can be removed without the need for whitening treatments, keeping your smile brighter naturally.
Thinking about cosmetic dental treatment?
Healthy gums and teeth are the foundation for any successful aesthetic work. Many restorative materials require a clean and dry environment for optimal bonding, so visiting the hygienist beforehand ensures the greatest long-term results for your treatment.

Fantastic care. My teenage daughter broke her front tooth badly. Within 4 hours of calling, they were able to squeeze in an emergency appointment, and Ellie and the team did the most fantastic cosmetic repair, such that it looked like nothing had happened at all. Really good service, and really appreciated. Thank you.

I hadn’t visited a dentist for many years as I wear dentures. However, I needed some new dentures, and as I live in Bollington, I decided to book at my local surgery. I cannot praise them enough. They were very easy to deal with, and Ellie, the dentist who took care of me, was very helpful and reassuring. I highly recommend the surgery.
