About Elite

A genuine smile comes from the heart, but a healthy smile needs good dental care.

You may be wondering

What exactly is a Dental Hygienist?

Dental hygienists are professional, highly trained dental practitioners who focus on preventive oral health, focusing on techniques that ensure oral tissues and teeth are maintained and remain healthy to prevent dental diseases, especially common chronic diseases such as gingivitis and active periodontitis (gum disease).

Dental hygienists focus on disease prevention, through clinical intervention and education. This is fundamental to the management of oral health. The provision of dental health education, including dietary advice and smoking cessation, and clinic procedures such as root debridement (gum disease treatment and support) also assists patients to manage existing conditions such as periodontal disease, cardiovascular disease, oral cancers, diabetes, and respiratory disease.

(The National Law requires the same level of professional responsibility from dental hygienists as it does from dentists, dental specialists, and dental prosthetists in that all practitioners must be registered with AHPRA and have their own professional indemnity insurance and radiation licences)
