Dental Hygienist in Stockholm – Professional Oral Health at Swedish Dental
At Swedish Dental, we offer gentle and effective treatments that help you maintain good oral health – whether you come for a regular cleaning or have symptoms such as bleeding gums and bad breath.
Our dental hygienists offer annual basic dental examinations, which include 4 X-ray images. If necessary, they also remove tartar and polish your teeth.
During each visit, you will also receive instruction in dental and oral care if the dental hygienists deem it necessary. Our dental hygienists are also incredibly skilled at teeth whitening, which, with our method, contributes to long-term white teeth.
What does a dental hygienist do?
A dental hygienist works preventively and treats early signs of gum problems (gingivitis) and tooth loss (periodontitis).
The purpose is to keep your teeth and gums healthy through professional cleaning and advice.
Treatment by a dental hygienist in Stockholm may include
- Examination of the gums
- Removal of tartar and plaque
- Polishing of the teeth
- Cleaning below the gumline if necessary
- Advice on toothbrushing technique, mouthwash, and interdental cleaning
- Tobacco cessation if needed
What we do is a risk assessment of your need to see a dental hygienist to avoid complications. If you have artificial replacements in the form of implants and dental bridges in your mouth, it can be difficult to clean effectively, especially as you get older. A visit to our fantastic dental hygienists will help you maintain a clean, fresh, and healthy mouth.
Studies show that the connection between tooth loss and cardiovascular diseases is more intertwined than we previously knew. Studies show that people who are missing about 10 or more teeth have a greater risk of developing cardiovascular diseases, and that tooth loss is 1.5-2 times more common for patients with cardiovascular diseases.

Who should see a dental hygienist?
Everyone! Children, adults, and the elderly can all benefit from dental hygienist visits. But it is especially important if you:
- Have bleeding or swollen gums
- Smoke or use snus
- Have tartar or discoloration
- Have bad breath
- Have previously had periodontitis (tooth loss)
- Wear braces, implants, or bridges
How often should one visit a dental hygienist?
We recommend that you visit a dental hygienist at least once a year, or more often if you have risk factors such as smoking, tartar, or previous tooth loss.
