Managing NHS Capacity & ICB Guidelines

As you can imagine, we have been inundated with requests for NHS dental care across the region. While our goal is to care for as many patients as possible, we are currently required to follow the clinical allocation and prioritisation framework set by the Integrated Care Board (ICB).

We are continuing to work closely with the ICB to explore every opportunity for additional NHS provision so that we can expand access to as many residents as possible over time.

Current Appointment Prioritisation

In strict accordance with ICB guidelines, available appointments are currently being prioritised for:

• Patients experiencing acute dental pain or urgent dental problems
• Children aged 16 years old or younger

How to Book Urgent & Child appointments

To manage demand fairly and effectively, urgent appointments are released one week in advance. These can be booked online, by calling the practice team, or by visiting us in person.

Using our online booking system is the quickest and most effective way to secure an available slot, please use the ‘New Patient’ button at the top of this page.

If you prefer to speak with our team directly, you can call the practice on 01262 679 027 or visit reception.

Looking Ahead

Over-the-counter oral health products, such as mouthwash, can support your oral hygiene routine, but they should not be seen as a replacement for professional care. These products are best used following advice from your dentist, dental therapist or dental hygienist.

Here are some indications that you may need a hygiene visit:

• Cleaning visible plaque or tartar build-up on the teeth that cannot be removed with regular toothbrushing
• Treating bleeding gums
• Treating swollen and tender gums
• Helping to manage bad breath

Loose teeth, gaps developing between the teeth, or teeth changing position can be signs of advanced gum disease. In these cases, you may need more advanced periodontal treatment as well as regular hygiene care.

Smokers are at a significantly higher risk of gum disease and may not notice bleeding when brushing until the condition has progressed. Gum disease can also run in families, so people with a family history of gum disease should be particularly vigilant. Some medications, medical conditions such as diabetes, and hormonal changes during pregnancy can also increase the risk of gum problems or make existing gum disease worse.

You will usually need one appointment to have your teeth professionally cleaned by your hygienist. However, depending on the amount of plaque or tartar build-up and the severity of any gum disease, further appointments may be recommended.

Some advantages of maintaining a regular dental hygiene schedule are:

• A cleaner, brighter smile
• Fresher breath
• Healthier gums that are less likely to bleed
• Long-term support for your teeth and gums

The post Advantages of dental hygiene and air polishing appeared first on Genix Healthcare.

As gum disease progresses, the gums can begin to pull away from the teeth, creating small spaces known as periodontal pockets. These pockets can make it harder to clean plaque effectively with a toothbrush, allowing bacteria to collect deeper below the gumline. Over time, plaque that is not removed can harden into tartar, also known as calculus. Tartar attaches firmly to the tooth surface and cannot be removed with normal toothbrushing. If left untreated, this can contribute to further gum infection, loss of gum attachment and loss of supporting bone around the teeth.

Traditionally, scaling involved the use of specially designed hand instruments to remove tartar from the tooth surface. Modern dental hygiene treatment may also involve sonic or ultrasonic instruments, which use gentle vibrations and a water stream to help remove tartar and debris from the teeth.

Air polishing uses a controlled stream of air, water and specially formulated powder to help remove plaque, surface staining and debris from the tooth surface. This can leave the teeth feeling cleaner, smoother and fresher, while supporting your overall gum health.

No sensitivity during scaling? Really?

Some patients may feel concerned about sensitivity during a hygiene appointment, particularly if they have receding gums, exposed root surfaces or existing tooth sensitivity. At Genix, we use advanced ultrasonic scaling technology designed to clean the teeth and gumline gently and effectively. This allows your hygienist to remove plaque and tartar while helping to keep discomfort to a minimum.

Hygiene appointments are often part of ongoing preventive dental care, rather than a one-off treatment. By making these appointments as comfortable and reassuring as possible, we aim to help patients maintain high standards of oral hygiene over the long term and feel more confident about attending regular visits.

What Are the Benefits of Air Polishing?

Air polishing uses a controlled mixture of air, water and fine powder to clean the teeth. It is gentle on the tooth enamel and exposed root surfaces, helping to remove plaque, biofilm and surface staining without damaging the tooth surface.

As air polishing does not use heat or heavy pressure, many patients find it more comfortable than some traditional polishing methods. It can also help clean hard-to-reach areas, including around the gumline and, where appropriate, within periodontal pockets, supporting more effective biofilm removal.

Air polishing can be particularly useful for removing surface stains caused by smoking, tobacco use, red wine, black coffee, tea or long-term use of chlorhexidine mouthwash. This can help your teeth feel cleaner, smoother and fresher after treatment.

Your dentist or hygienist may also recommend air polishing before teeth whitening, as removing surface stains and plaque can help prepare the teeth for whitening treatment.
