Bad breath can be linked to tartar, gum inflammation, dry mouth or tongue coating. We help identify the likely cause.

Fluoride Treatment
Fluoride can support enamel strength and is especially useful for higher cavity risk, sensitivity or exposed root surfaces.

Start with tartar removal or AirFlow if the main issue is build-up, surface stains or a less fresh feeling.
If your gums bleed or feel swollen
Prioritise inflamed gums treatment and gum disease prevention before the problem becomes more advanced.
If you get cavities or dry mouth
Fluoride, dry-mouth guidance and preventive care can help protect teeth when saliva or enamel support is reduced.

Frequently asked questions about dental hygienist treatments
How often should I see a dental hygienist?
Many patients benefit from one or two visits per year. If you have tartar build-up, bleeding gums, dry mouth, implants, aligners or previous gum disease, a shorter interval may be recommended.
Is a dental hygienist visit the same as a dental exam?
No. A dental hygienist focuses on cleaning, gum health and prevention, while a dentist diagnoses and treats dental disease. The two roles work together when deeper assessment is needed.
Can tartar be removed at home?
Hardened tartar cannot be safely removed with normal brushing. A dental hygienist uses professional instruments to remove deposits without damaging the teeth or gums.
Can a hygienist help with bad breath?
Yes. Bad breath is often linked to plaque, tartar, gum inflammation, tongue coating or dry mouth. The first step is to identify the likely cause and build a practical routine.
Does AirFlow whiten teeth?
AirFlow can remove many surface stains and make teeth look cleaner and brighter, but it does not bleach the tooth shade. If you want a stronger colour change, whitening may be discussed.
Can I book without a referral?
Yes. You can book a dental hygienist visit directly at Gloss & Floss Dental Care® in Södermalm. If we see a need for dentist assessment, we will guide you to the right next step.
Unsure which hygienist treatment fits your situation?
Book an appointment and we will help you prioritise the right first step based on your gums, tartar level, stains, breath, sensitivity, dry mouth and long-term oral health risks.
