Gums and Cleaning


Healthy teeth start with healthy gums.
Whether you’re looking to maintain a clean, fresh mouth or you’ve noticed symptoms like bleeding gums or bad breath, caring for your gums is an essential part of long-term oral health.

At Triangle Dental, our approach focuses on both prevention and early treatment—helping you stay healthy and addressing any problems before they progress.

How to look after your teeth and gums at home

Most people brush their teeth every day—but not always effectively.

In this video, Dr Jon Cowie shares the key steps to keep your teeth and gums healthy—covering brushing technique, toothpaste, and simple habits that help prevent tooth decay and gum disease.

Professional support for your gum health

Even with good brushing at home, there are areas that are difficult to clean fully. Over time, plaque can build up and affect the health of your gums.

Professional care helps to remove this build-up and support long-term oral health.

Your gums: prevention and treatment

Everyone’s needs are slightly different. Some patients attend for routine maintenance, while others may need more focused care for their gum health.
