Dental hygienist Turku – Professional oral health care

Dent Å's experienced dental hygienists are oral health professionals who help you maintain healthy teeth and gums throughout your life. Regular visits to a dental hygienist effectively prevent dental and gum diseases and save you time and money in the future. At our clinic in the center of Turku, you will receive personal and thorough care in a modern environment.

What does a dental hygienist do?

A dental hygienist is a trained oral health professional who specializes in preventive care and maintaining oral health. Dent Å's dental hygienists work closely with our dentists to provide comprehensive care to each patient.

The dental hygienist will remove tartar and stains that you cannot remove with home care. At the same time, you will receive personal guidance on daily oral hygiene - together we will learn the correct brushing technique and interdental cleaning that is right for your mouth.

Who is a dental hygienist's service suitable for?

Regular dental care is everyone's right and the foundation of good health – just like going to a hairdresser or masseuse, your teeth also need professional care. A healthy mouth affects the well-being of your entire body, and regular visits every 6-12 months will keep your smile in good shape for decades to come.

Dental care is especially important during life transitions, such as during pregnancy, quitting smoking, or when you want to make sure your mouth is healthy before major dental procedures. Children also benefit from early introduction to a dental hygienist – this way dental care feels like a natural part of life.

Why choose a dental hygienist at Dent Å?

We have several experienced dental hygienists. We use modern equipment, such as an ultrasound device for tartar removal, which makes the treatment more pleasant. Our reception has a calm atmosphere, and our staff is used to treating patients who are nervous about dental treatment. Tartar removal can also be done under local anesthesia. In addition, you receive Kela compensation twice a year for dental hygienist treatment without a doctor's referral.

Kärsin aika pahasta kuorsaamisesta. Sain täältä aivan uskomattoman hyvää palvelua ja hoitoa. Kuorsauskiskoilla loppui kuorsaus siihen paikkaan. Nyt saan nukuttua yöt hyvin ja kuorsaus on loppu....

Miellyttävin hammaslääkäri käynti kokemus mitä ikinä on ollut. Rauhallinen , ammattitaitoinen ja melkeinpä terapeuttinen kokemus. Lämmin suositus hammaslääkäri Anna Alankojasta.

Our dental hygienists offer a variety of treatments for your oral well-being.

Tartar removal and maintenance treatment

Regular tartar removal is the foundation of oral health. We remove tartar and plaque with an ultrasonic device and hand instruments. At the same time, we clean the surfaces of the teeth from stains caused by coffee, tea and tobacco. The treatment always includes personal self-care guidance and, if necessary, fluoride treatment. The appropriate treatment interval is individual, usually 3-12 months.

Soda cleaning for a brighter smile

Powder cleaning is an effective way to remove stubborn stains and bacterial plaque. The surfaces of the teeth become smoother and brighter without damaging the enamel. The treatment is ideal as a complement to regular tartar removal a few times a year.

Teeth whitening by a professional

We offer safe teeth whitening in our office. Before whitening, we ensure the health of your teeth and gums and perform the necessary pre-treatments. During the consultation, we will choose the most suitable method for you and give you a realistic estimate of the results.

Massage of the masticatory muscles for tension

Massaging the masseter muscles relieves tension and pain in the jaw, neck and neck-shoulder area. We treat the masseter muscles both inside and outside the mouth. The treatment is especially helpful for those who suffer from teeth grinding and biting. At the same time, we guide you through home care to maintain the treatment results.

Frequently asked questions

The appropriate interval for your visits is individual and depends on your oral health. For most people, 6-12 months is suitable, but for example, people with gingivitis or diabetes benefit from more frequent visits of 3-4 months. Your dental hygienist will recommend the appropriate treatment interval for you at your first visit.

Tartar removal is usually painless, but inflamed gums can be sensitive to the treatment. We use gentle techniques and ultrasound devices to make the treatment more comfortable. If necessary, we can use topical anesthesia or more extensive local anesthesia.

You can book an appointment directly with a dental hygienist without a referral. Our dental hygienist works with our dentists and will refer you to a dentist if something arises during your treatment that requires a dentist's assessment.

Yes, you can receive Kela compensation for oral examinations and preventive care performed by a dental hygienist. You can receive compensation twice during the calendar year without a dentist's referral. With us, Kela compensation is paid directly by showing your Kela card.

Absolutely! It's a good idea for your child to get to know a dental hygienist early on so that dental care feels natural. The dental hygienist will teach your child the correct brushing technique in a playful way and make dental visits a pleasant experience.
