Reasons Why You Should Always See A Dental Hygienist

Seeing the hygiene team for the removal of hard and soft plaque deposits at the recommended intervals – this will depend on the status of your gum and dental health. Brush your teeth, including the gums twice a day, the evening brush is most important.

Clean between the teeth before your evening brush—Interdental brushes work really well. Change your toothbrush head every 3 months. If your gums bleed, pay special attention to cleaning around that area and bring to the attention of your hygienist.

Smokers are far more at risk of Periodontitis, so quit while you’re ahead!

Disclosing tablets can help you identify plaque that you’ve missed so test yourself regularly at home

1) After your evening cleaning regime, chew the tablet until it turns to liquid, swish this around with your tongue

2) Swill once with water and see what you’ve missed!

Many of our patients visit us for cosmetic treatments. We put great emphasis on the importance of a healthy mouth and achieving this before going ahead with any other treatments. Once firm foundations and a stable environment are established, we have the confidence to provide long lasting dentistry whist minimising the occurrence of preventable disease in the future.

Gum Disease is an infection of the gums. It is caused by plaque, a sticky film that collects on teeth and gums.

When plaque is missed it will cause disease. Red, puffy bleeding gums are all signs of gum disease. Toxins released by bacteria within plaque cause inflammation of the gums.

Gingivitis is a reversible form of gum disease; Periodontitis displays permanent damage.

Both forms can be treated at the practice, but this must be supplemented with gold standard homecare. 

Gingivitis can progress to form Periodontitis, where the gums pull away from the teeth. This results in an infection that destroys the surrounding bone, forming a gap between the gum and tooth surface known as a pocket, where further plaque and tarter will form. As more bone is lost, teeth will become loose, leading to premature tooth loss.

I have been a patient of Richard Halderthay for 20 years. He is a lovely person and also an excellent dentist. Whenever there is something serious to be done to my ever troubling teeth he talks me through the possible downsides but then he always does a fantastic job and I am always really grateful for the outcome and there are no downsides, or pain. The team are great too.

740 Dental were recommended to me by my mother in law. At the time I had 2 badly cracked & broken teeth, extremely sensitive and I thought I would need to have removed or crowned.Richard explained the approach they take to preserving and reconstructing teeth. I now have all of my own teeth, no crowns, no extractions and even better, the sensitivity is gone.Both my children now see Richard & Marzena and they are so relaxed about having their appointments. All round, the best dental experience I have ever had.

A lot of investors are confused and go into deep research, for a trusted and legit platform to trade and invest in. I was also looking for the best not until I read good reviews and recommendations about Mrs MELISSA CRYPTO, With her great skill of trading and mining made a good profit for so many in their trade account. I was amazed how happy many investors wrote good comments about her. I contacted the amazing account manager MELISSA ,and invested with her with believe, and trust just as the way she replied me. I earned a very good profit and made my withdrawal successfully directly to my Bank account and gave back just 20% from my profit of $15,700.I am very much happy to have met with her, and I can now trade my own and earn good profit while sitting at home. I known this is inappropriate but this is my little way of showing gratitude and appreciation to her. If you wish to invest you can contact her viaWhatsApp:+1 (313)831-7140Email melissacrypto253@gmail.com

Well where do I begin. I have Health Anxiety which for some reason ended up spiralling out to the dentist meaning I hadn’t been for 5 odd years. I’d been so keen to go but just too terrified of being told the worst news. So I did some research and found 740 who I read all the reviews (hence writing one myself) as if I hadn’t read any I may still be in the same position.I stumbled up the courage and had a new patient exam I cried a lot with worry and fear before going but from the moment I stepped in the receptionists we’re just lovely.I was assigned Richard as my dentist and he is so very Patient with me. I have had my initial exam and was given my dental plan which I’ve already started. I saw a wonderful hygienist (I can’t remember name as was so nervous) and today I had a root canal which I worked myself up so much for I was shaking! Richard and his dental nurse were incredible they made me feel so at ease and Richard was so gentle I didn’t even feel the numbing injections going in AT ALL (all 3 of them) I couldn’t believe it once it was done! All of that worry.I have an extraction next also and bit worried as it’s just an anxiety I have but I’m so reassured now Richard won’t let anything hurt!If you have dental anxiety get yourself to 740 I’m so so relieved I can now begin my journey to Invisalign and white teeth

I have a phobia of dentists and avoid them unless I'm in serious pain. I've never felt at ease in the chair. I contacted 740 Dental as I saw they could help with nervous patients. As soon as I entered reception, I was put at ease (given an elastic band to fidget with which worked a treat) and then accompanied upstairs to the Dentist. Sharon was perfect! Friendly, explained everything she was doing as she was doing it and gave lots of praise. I felt very comfortable during the examination, and that's never happened to me before. I came back a few weeks later to have a tooth extraction under sedation which was fantastic! Everything explained to me, the anaesthetist was very calming and gentle. The whole experience was fantastic.I feel comfortable going back for check ups and further treatment, and I never thought I'd find a dentist that I would want to visit unless I'm in extreme pain.Thank you to all the staff at 740 Dental! 🥰

740 dental are amazing. I am a nervous patient but now have total trust in my new dentist Sharon She performed emergency root canal going over and above to see me quickly, it was painless and I am so grateful. It’s wonderful when you know you have a dentist you can trust. My teeth will soon be up to scratch again after being left untreated properly by the nhs. Thankyou so much

After being very nervous for quite some time I finally decided to come to back to the dentist and choose 740 dental.Richard is a very nice man and your feelings and nerves was his no.1 priority.After a check up and a clean I was ready to have a root canal After passing out on a previous root canal I was more than impressed with Richard at 740 I did not feel a thing and the whole process was very relaxed and I would recommend this practice especially Richard to anyone .Kyle .

I'm a very nervous patient, it's the numbness that I can't do and I've had some very bad dental treatment over the yrs from certain practises, so I found 740 dental on Google, and I'm so glad, after 2 yrs of waiting to have the back right broken tooth removed and not feeling the other dentists were right for me, I finally went to see Richard at 740, straight away I felt welcome and people were happy the nurses the dentists all had smiles on there faces that's so welcoming compared to other places, had initial assessment and booked to have this tooth removed, few weeks later the day came I was so nervous about the numbing, I was so close to not having it done, richard was so patient with me and let me have some time to relax and think he didn't rush me even saw other patients while I was sorting my head out, finally went back in and we talked about another type of anesthesia that was done at 740, it's injected into the bone and only the tooth that is being removed would be numb nothing else at all no lips nose mouth etc, had this procedure done literally 5mins and the whole tooth was numb and nothing else, went back upstairs to Richard and he removed the tooth in 5mins and I was so happy literally cannot tell you how relieved after so long and so many other dentists giving bad advice, try 740 as I'm sure you won't be disappointed. thank you Richard and team 🙏

Amazing!!!Needed an emergency appointment today. Was feeling guilty calling them in to open the practice on a sunny Sunday.Andrew and Millie were brilliant.Root canal is never an enjoyable experience but I have never felt so cared for in the past.Andrew was patient and highly professional in his approach to my obvious pain, ably supported by Millie. It can't be easy in all that PPE gear.Thank you so much for showing me how nice dentistry should be and showing how comparatively lacking my care has been in the past at previous practices. Also again thank you so much for giving up a few hours of your Sunday to fix my angry roots.

After a lifetime (I am 77years old), of being scared of the dentist and not going unless I really, really had to, I am so pleased that a friend recommended me to 740. I had such a warm welcome from Angela and was put at ease straight away. Everyone is very professional but at the same time there are so many smiles from staff and patients. I have just been back for my second visit and I was actually looking forward to going.I don’t know what it is but you seem to be sprinkled with ‘happy dust” as you walk in. I and looking forward to having my smile back in three weeks time.

This morning I have had two fillings and a crown, I must admit I wasn't particularly looking forward to my visit to the dentist, who does? However with modern technology and super professionalism from my dentist ( Dr.A Prynne) I can honestly say that it was a totally painless experience and to be able to have the whole treatment carried out in one visit was very convenient too.Very pleased with result.As always very attentive and very recommendable.

I have been waiting for a tooth to be removed since March 2019. My dentist have been really bad and not giving me any idea how long. I was in agony so i contacted 740 dental at 8:30. They agreed to see me at 10:40, just had to have my X-rays sent over due to being pregnant. The receptionist was so friendly and so supportive she went above and beyond to sort this out. I was seen by Halderthay and he was amazing, made me feel at ease and was so reassuring throughout. The care and support I have had from here I would definitely recommend. I am now pain free. Thank you x

740 Dental is quite a way from where we live but i never want to change dentists. We go regularly for hygienist and checkups and all the staff are always exceptionally kind, patient and helpful. Today i needed a procedure done and was very anxious after a past trauma many years ago, elsewhere. James and the team were just lovely and he did a great job! Thank you all.

Highly recommended!!Since having a previous very bad experience at another dental practice, I have been extremely anxious about going somewhere and finding someone who can help me have the smile I want...Let me start With Debbie the receptionist. Wow! Thank god Debbie answered the phone to me. I must have called between 20-30 dental practices and not one of them compares to Debbie's customer service!Soo welcoming, patient, kind and very experienced!Although the practice is just over an hours drive from me it is so so worth it! And even if I moved another hour away I'd still make the journey to them! Someone give this lady a payrise! I must have called Debbie up another 3 times before I decided to go with 740 Dental, Debbie didn't get fed up once. So I cannot thank you enough for making me feel so welcome, it means I'm able to move forward with my treatment.I've recieved care from Sharon halderthay & James coupe and couldn't be happier. Clearly experienced and very thorough.Sharon is so lovely, I've recieved root canal that didn't hurt at all. It was actually the most comfortable, relaxing dental treatment I've ever recieved!James Coupe has also been very patient with my needs and demands of what I'd like and very quick to Respond and sort my treatment. I look forward to the future at 740 Dental. Thank You 😊

I’m so lucky to have finally found my perfect dentist! After years of being afraid and always trying to find someone I feel comfortable with, I’m never leaving 740! Angela has completely changed the way I feel about going to the dentist, I’ve gone from having panic attacks to only clenching my hands together - which I think is pretty normal! She has been so supportive, understanding and caring throughout my journey so far and I actually look forward to each visit. I’ve needed a lot of work with my teeth but after receiving the right information on how to look after them, I’m hoping no more fillings anytime soon! Thank you so so much to Angela, Xenia, Carly, and the lovely lady greeting me from the minute I walk in to the receptionists booking my next appointment. You are all brilliant and well done for all you do!

I honestly could not reccomend 740 Dental highly enough. I am a really anxious patient as I've had horrible experiences in the past, which ended with me not going to the dentist for 10 years! Last year I decided to face my fears and came here, and I am so glad that I did. I got sedation for a filling last year, and today have just had a filling with no sedation, which I never thought I'd be able to do! It was a GREAT experience with absolutely no pain at all. Previously I used to break down crying in a filling! Richard, who I went to, really took the time to listen to my fears, and with loads of patience helped me through the process. If you really hate and fear the dentist, please please book an appointment here and you WILL be able to get over them. The cost is a lot more than NHS, but honestly - it is seriously worth every penny in my opinion. Their reception staff are also super lovely too! Thank you 740, I am so grateful.

For various reasons I hadn't visited a dentist for many years but pain eventually took me to 740 Dental and in particular to Sharon, Ella & Carly. I was shown nothing but care, kindness and understanding by them all. After several completely painless appointments I can now smile confidently again thanks to their brilliant professionalism. I cannot recommend them highly enough and the safety procedures, due to the pandemic, made visits totally safe.

I visited the practice today to register as a new patient & having previously used the direct access service for hygienist visits at 740 I always found the staff so friendly and welcoming.At my visit today I saw Richard who I was personally recommended to along with his nurse Emma and I was instantly put at ease and made to feel very welcome.After my examination Richard explained everything to me and answered any questions and I felt the examination was very thorough and I loved the camera that showed up on the screen of pictures of my teeth-rather cool!I then went on to see the hygienist Carly and had a clean and then the air flow polisher which is something every person should experience- again Carly was very informative, friendly and I’d highly recommend seeing her.

I have been in agony with toothache for 3 weeks I am petrified of the dentist I saw Sharon a 740 dentist this morning and I can not rate them enough , she was so lovely she is the only person that has ever been able to remove a tooth with out sedation so that makes her a very special lady as I’m a nightmare, If anyone suffers from anxiety of going to the dentist then this is the place you need to go all staff seemed very friendly and make you relaxed

I can't say how happy I am to recommend 740 Dental. After over 10 years of dentistry abroad, recent experiences brought me back to the UK and to the best Dental Surgery. They are technologically advanced with pain free anesthesia and outstanding design and production of crowns. The staff from the Reception Staff to medical staff are both professional and kind. My Surgeons Sharon and Andrew are by far the most genuinely lovely and caring people who treat everyone with respect and involve you in decisions. I cant recommend this surgery enough. I found it by chance and it was the best find i have ever made .

I hadn’t been to the dentist in years due to being terrified! It took me a long time to find a dentist I felt comfortable with. As soon as I had my first appointment with Angela I felt so at ease and couldn’t wait to start my treatment. It’s been a long road lots of fillings and root canal but I couldn’t be happier and can’t thank Angela and 740 enough for how they have helped me get my teeth back to how they should be!

** UPDATE**I went to 740 Dental after reading the wonderful reviews online and initially my contact was to enquire about Invisalign. Unfortunately I had some serious underlying issues and I went through some fairly traumatic times as I had to lose some teeth. No matter how old you are it is scary but I am writing this review at the end of my treatment but not at the end of my time with 740. My teeth are now straight. My gums are healthy. My confidence is such that I now have a new job and my dream of being a personal trainer is on the horizon too. James and Lisa have held my hand throughout ...All decisions made along the way were discussed with empathy and I never felt rushed, only supported. I actually looked forward to going and feeling the warm welcome and familiarity from all the staff.. This, I feel, is what makes 740 unique. Thank you Millie, James, Lisa and all the girls for everything. Have a fabulous Christmas. See you next year. Much love x

I've always been terrified of going to the dentist, and still am, but feel a lot more comfortable after visiting 740dental. I've seen Andrew twice and both times I've been blown away by his kindness, patience and gentle approach. Andrew came to greet me personally in the waiting room before taking me through to his surgery. During my appointment he explained every single thing before going ahead, even asked my permission before the various steps, and reminded me often that I am in control and we can stop anytime I feel the need. I'm eternally grateful to Andrew and also his nurse Becky for their patient and gentle approach. X

I got in for an emergency dentist appointment being an unregistered patient on the same day. It was the most pleasant experience I could have dreamt of for a dentist. My dentist (Richard) and dental nurse (Emma) put me completely at ease. Professional yet easy to get on with just like chatting with a friend. Cannot praise them enough 🙌 Oh and best of all I'm now pain free! Thank you!

No more hiding behind my lips! I faced my fear and can now finally smile without a care in the world! I hadn’t been to the dentist in over 10 years due to having such bad experiences as a child. All the reception team made me feel so welcome as soon as I walked through the door and within the first minute of meeting Angela she made me feel so at ease and all the nervous feeling and anxiety I felt just disappeared! Angela was absolutely lovely and made sure I was ok at all times. You’ve changed my life and given me so much confidence! I can’t thank Angela and Steph enough they were just amazing! I cried happy tears for the first time and not scared tears ☺️ I would 100% recommended 740 dental practice to anyone!! X

I visited 740 Dental for the first time today and was extremely impressed with the check up and care I received from James along with his Dental Nurse Lisa. They both were very friendly and made me feel at ease having gone to the Dentist with a gum problem that I had never experienced before. The surroundings were very calming and James explained every step of the check up, answered all my queries and concerns and put my mind at rest. I left my appointment satisfied with clarity and aftercare. It is clear that James and Lisa are a great duo who work very professionally together. I’d like to say a big thank you and that I would absolutely recommend James and Lisa at 740 along with the Receptionists who were warm and welcoming.

Our 5 year old had to have his tooth taken out, after horrendous experience we had in different dental practice, it was difficult for us to trust again. We have researched internet and we are so glad that we found you. Richard saw our little man, he was very good with him and gentle, quickly put us at ease and resorted the confidence. We can not thank you enough for today. We are forever grateful. Everyone is so nice there, from the moment you step inside you just feel that they care and will look after you well.

A very good customer experience, having used this dentist for many years, I had my first major treatment recently and was looked after very well and have had a successful result.

What's important to many people who visit a dentist is the reassurance they're in safe and competent hands. Without a shadow of a doubt, the guys at 740 Dental exceed in those qualities alongside professionalism and friendliness from everyone you interact with. I have every confidence in Richard (my dentist) and Kate (my hygiene therapist) who give me excellent advice and first class treatment each and every time I visit.

Considering I had spent so much time deliberating over the idea of getting Invisalign, the results were a lot more instantaneous than I had originally thought. My dentist was friendly and all the staff gave me a cordial welcoming. My only wish is that I had done it sooner! Thank you so much.

It was my first visit after moving into this area. I was taken aback at the professionalism and friendliness shown by all of the staff. Andrew made me feel completely at ease and informed me every step of the way regarding my procedure. I am so happy that I have found a new dentist I can trust. Lynne S.

So delighted with every aspect of my time with 740 Dental - all the staff are so friendly, helpful and make 'visiting the dentist' a pleasurable experience rather than a chore. I underwent the Invisalign treatment and from my initial meeting to my final appointment I can not fault the service. I was consulted at every step, listened to, nothing was ever too much trouble and wow! the final results! I am DELIGHTED with my new straight teeth, no longer disappointed when I see myself in photographs, and I tell pretty much everyone I meet about 740 Dental & Invisalign! I can't thank the team enough!

I want to say a massive thank you to Mr Andrew Prynne for fixing up my molars. I had a five year gap where I didn’t go to the dentist, ( personal reasons were there.) Dr Prynne had to do miracles to get me back to where I was, and now after 4 crowns, I feel fantastic. I was amazed at how today’s technology and of course Dr Prynne’s know how, has made my crowns feel and look like they were totally my own, perfect. I can now eat properly again. Apart from me being truly ecstatic about my teeth, ( & that’s no understatement,) my treatment while having it done was surprisingly pain free, I say surprisingly as I expected to even feel the little needle at beginning, but not even that. I chilled and actually enjoyed it. I felt like I’d been to a pamper day. I can’t thank Dr Prynne enough, not only is he a wonderful kind conscientious dentist, who knows his job with precision, but he’s also a smashing person and you couldn’t help feel at ease with him & his lovely assistant. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

From start to finish (9 months) I have received excellent care from Andrew and the team. I have been well informed all the through the process and feel I have worked in collaboration with them to work towards my perfect � smile ���� . Andrew has been very responsive if I have needed to ask him a question or advice re the healing process, I could not have been looked after better. I have loved his enthusiasm for his job and appreciated his professionalism. I would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone. Thank you 740.

From the first point of contact at 740 dental with my treatment coordinator Milly, who I feel went above and beyond to answer my endless questions and made me feel very comfortable with the treatment options and the options being within my budget, to then having the communication with the dentist Andrew, we discussed the options in a free consultation and he took x-rays and photographs of the area in my mouth so that I could have as much knowledge on the procedures as possible, what a lovely team. I believe that your smile is a huge confidence booster, and knowing that I’ll be in safe hands is a huge relief, which means I’ll have the smile I want for my wedding day. Couldn’t recommend them more! Very happy patient!

I have had a challenging year health wise made easier by the excellent care and advice of Andrew Prynne and Ruth the hygienist. I have been a patient at the practice since the very beginning and would never go anywhere else. I have moved home several times over the years but have always considered it worth the journey for the friendly excellent care this practice provides. Anyone considering joining a new practice need look no further.

Calm atmosphere. Modern furnishings and professional service from all the staff. James is my dentist and he is always smiling and chatty. Everyone is welcoming. We've been at this practice since it was NHS and I was a baby ( im now 23) and we wouldn't go anywhere else. I'd much rather pay for a very good service than go cheaper and may not get the amount of attention these guys give to their clients. Always leave feeling well looked after.I've had a few fillings and the staff make sure that I feel calm and relaxed at all times (I hate needles) and also had 6 teeth out for braces nearly 10 years ago and was very happy with everything. Would recommend to anyone who wants to be well taken care of and feel like they are cared about. Who likes the dentist though hey.. 😉

I've been attending this dental surgery with my three sons for over 20 years and have always received excellent service. Sharon Halderthay, our dentist and Ruth, our hygienist are always highly professional and very friendly. Last year I had a brace fitted by Angela O'Reagan who was also lovely and professional. Would highly recommend this practice!!

Over the weekend, while visiting from London, my daughter had an accident which resulted in a broken front tooth. Naturally she was upset and very anxious, but the team at 740 Dental came to her rescue on Sunday morning. The tooth was repaired in no time and my daughter returned to London with her usual sunny smile and full of confidence again. Huge thanks to Andrew Prynne and Head Nurse Kate for saving the day. We can't thank you enough 🙂

I had three Dental Implants involving substantial bone grafts. Dr James Coupe is highly competent and thorough and I would without question recommend him for all dentistry work. Dr Coupe also takes a holistic approach in order to provide you with the best treatment. He did 3 root canal fillings in one tooth at the back of my mouth with ease and totally painless and absolutely the result is a successful outcome. You will get top class treatment at this Practice from Dr Coupe.

I am a extremely nervous patient, but having my teeth looked after by 740 Dental, I feel reassured that I am getting the best treatment and looked after very well by my dentist Mr Coupe and his dental nurse assistant. The Hygenist Ruth that I see always puts me at ease and is very patient with me having my teeth cleaned. Thankyou to the whole team at 740 Dental.

Angela O'Regan is fabulous. Long story short I first started to use them on an emergency call out on a bank holiday weekend Saturday. Brilliant after care. Prices reasonable for the area. Appointments tend to always be on time.First time since I had no choice (still a child) that I book and go to the dentist on a regular basis.Best thing is they always give you options on treatment so don't just push the most expensive option and will always tell you if it would not be best for you.

Angela O'Regan is a truly wonderful dentist. She is also always so kind and understanding. I truly do not know where I would be without her. Ruth is my dental hygienist. She too is excellent and always so helpful in every way. They are both amazing and I am always so grateful to both of them.

If it weren't for Andrew Prynne and the amazing team at 740 Dental I don't know if I'd have ever regained any trust in the dental profession. More importantly, our children are happy and confident to attend their appointments and take on board all the advice offered to them. On the rare occasion that treatment is required we always feel fully informed and I know that their comfort with any procedures is of upmost importance to the whole team. I really can't praise them enough.
