Oral hygiene training

A personal session that makes your daily care actually work.

Oral hygiene training is an individual session with a hygienist or periodontist offering personal care recommendations. The doctor assesses your brushing technique with a plaque indicator, shows problem areas and teaches effective methods - how to use floss, interdental brushes and an irrigator. For patients with braces, implants or gum disease we draw up a separate protocol. Good home hygiene is the foundation: even the best treatment won't last without quality daily care.

When to come

  • Bleeding when brushing.
  • Plaque or tartar returns quickly.
  • You have braces, implants or crowns.
  • After periodontal treatment.
  • You want to master the correct technique.

FAQ

Why is a session better than internet advice?
The doctor sees your specific areas, bite and appliances and tailors the technique to you — generic advice isn't enough.
How often to use floss or brushes?
Usually daily. The doctor will tailor the specifics and brush size for you.
Do I need an irrigator?
It helps with braces, implants and gum disease but doesn't replace floss. We'll advise based on your situation.
How long is the session?
Usually 30–45 minutes — enough to demonstrate and practise everything.
Is it suitable for children?
Yes, hygiene training helps at any age; for children there's a separate playful format.

The right brushing technique saves years of treatment. We'll show your weak spots and teach care that works.
