Is hygiene treatment painful?

16 January 2026

We get asked this question a lot and initially if you have a bit of gum disease going on and we need to get that sorted then it probably is going to be a bit uncomfortable but once that problem is solved and we’ve got rid of all the inflammation in your mouth and you’ve got a good home care regime at home, with toothbrushing and interdental brushes then subsequent appointments with the hygienist shouldn’t be painful.

I had two wisdom teeth removed under sedation and the whole experience was exceptional from start to finish. Right from reception, the team were welcoming, reassuring and professional, which immediately helped put me at ease.My surgical team, Colin, Faith, and Ellie were excellent. They were calm, caring, and highly skilled throughout. You have a real sense that you are being treated by expert clinicians.The procedure itself was painless and the sedation made the whole experience feel very manageable and relaxed.The practice is immaculate, modern, and beautifully maintained, with a calm and premium feel throughout. The facilities and surroundings are absolutely first-class, creating an environment that feels refined, reassuring, and exceptionally well cared for. Everything about the setting reflects the calibre of clinical care they provide.The aftercare was also outstanding which included; post-op instructions, pain-relief medication and emergency contact support if it was to be required.I would highly recommend The Campbell Clinic.

I am a patient at the Campbell Clinic and my most recent experience was for a follow up appointment and assessment. As always the service I got was exemplary, professional, empathetic and ongoing care already considered and fully explained to me. I was fortunate to have the expertise of Colin Campbell himself supported by Anna for this appointment, however every member of the team over the last circa 6 months has been exceptional.

I highly recommend the dental practice. Everyone I came into contact with was professional and very welcoming. The whole team go above and beyond to put you at ease. Special mention to Dom who was responsible for my dental implant and did an amazing job, really kind, patient and he explained thoroughly what to expect.

I've been a patient since early 2025. With the expert help of Beatrice and Shaun I've had implants and bridgework carried out. Throughout the whole process their focus was ensuring that their work was of a high standard and that I was happy and comfortable at every step. The same can be said about the whole team at the clinic.

After going to my own private dentist and being in severe pain every day for four months and two appointments including xrays they still couldn't find a problem with my tooth so at the third attempt they told me I couldn't get an appointment at my private dentist for another 5 weeks. I was in so much pain I wasn't sure what to do and after spending 4 months eating pain killers just to sleep or get me through the day I was recommended I try the Campbell clinic. I first saw Matt Smart who told me I needed root canal treatment so I was booked in the next day with Nilesh Dayaram for root canal treatment. He talked me through the whole process and was so professional and calm. I never felt a thing from start to finish. From that moment of walking in and giving me root canal treatment I've been pain free.I am so thankful for the amazing treatment I was given by all the staff at the Campbell clinic. Amazing friendly staff and a spotless clean surgery. I left pain free and super happy. Would definitely recommend. Thank you so much

Brilliant dental clinic all round. The reception staff are exceptional. Sharon has been looking after us brilliantly for years. Megan the hygienist the most thorough I have ever been to with lots of great home care tips. And Matt the dentist kind and reassuringly professional. Thank you all as ever.

He explained all the treatment options and the processes very clearly.I now have a dental plan that I am incredibly happy with.Thank you Dom and I look forward to the next steps.

I saw Dominic this morning to expose my implants. It was a good experience, no waiting, no pain and I now have shiny healing caps. Impressions taken for one and a the other will be taken in 2 weeks. All good so far. I would recommend Dominic to anyone, gentle, reassuring and above all he listens to me.

I had two implants placed this morning and the whole process was absolutely pain-free. I was so well looked after by Alex, Vicky and Beth. They made sure I was comfortable and informed throughout. From the moment I walked through the door of the Campbell Clinic I was greeted with smiling faces and kindness from everyone. I was thoroughly looked after, thank you all!

It is likely no one will ever say that they loved having dental treatment, although my filling with Shaun today was so good that it was almost enjoyable!He informed me of his actions throughout which I found very reassuring and he and nurse Miah were both kind and compassionate. Thank you both so much.

I was first introduced to the Campbell Clinic Ethos around 2018. My wife need help with a the remains of the roots of a tooth. Going with her, as support, cemented my view of how much “love” went into their work!! I subsequently switched Dentists to the CC. I subsequently had £35k’s worth of work on my mouth which has been the best ever “investment” of my life. I have never felt so reassured by any other organisation, in my life. The CC is the exact model of how the future of healthcare should be. I have never felt so involved in my own treatment !!! Thank you CC.

Fantastic experience at the Campbell clinic today, as always. From the moment I arrived, the reception staff were excellent, they always make me a coffee and are super friendly. Never thought I’d say “I'm happy to go to the dentist” Alex has changed my view on dentists, he’s the best.

Had a fantastic experience at the Campbell clinic. I was offered a drink on arrival which eased a twenty minute delay. But once treatment started, what would happen next and how it might affect me was fully explained to me. The team working on my implant couldn’t be more supportive. I was expecting the experience to be painful but I hardly felt anything. I was given a package with pain killers and cooling packs to help with any swelling but I’ve not had much swelling. I’m very pleased with the treatment I received and I hope the following stages go as smoothly as my Campbell Clinic visit.

I was recently referred to The Campbell Clinic by my NHS dentist for some specialist treatment. I am not a great patient and definitely feel anxious. Nilesh completed my treatment, he was calming and reassuring. Very pleased with the outcome.

Today I had the pleasure of visiting the Campbell Clinic for an initial consultation to discuss teeth restoration options with who I can only say were an Incredible team. I was greeted by Ely a Clinical Nurse who started the consultation talking me through the process and taking detailed photographs of my teeth. It was then time to meet the Dental Surgeon Dominic Smithers who got to know me and my history before carrying out a through examination and discussing potential options available to address my current dental issues. This guy really knows his stuff instilling me with great confidence that they're are options available to me my needs. Before leaving the clinic i met back up with Ely who took a full scan of my mouth and it current state of play to allow the team to deliver me a fully detailed dental plan. Many thanks to the whole team 🙌

The level of care and professionalism is phenomenal. Friendly helpful reception staff, incredible patient interaction from my dentist(s) and nurses. My implant treatment has been explained carefully at every step and I’ve always felt comfortable and informed. Best practice I’ve ever been to.

Never thought I’d say this… but I actually enjoy going to the dentist!Meg (hygienist) was great today and Shaun’s brilliant too. I think they actually care about my teeth more than me! That much so I’ve upgraded to the higher plan and added my son on too,Thanks for going a great job,Ross

Always 5 star treatment from The Campbell Clinic. I’ve been a patient since 2016 after needing emergency implant surgery. They have always made what was quite a traumatic process for me feel so calm, professional and have put me at ease. I’ve recently been back to have more work and it has been the same great experience. Special thanks to Andy Legg who is so passionate and professional in this field, thoroughly recommend.

Welcoming, friendly and assuring professionalism from everyone I encountered in the practice. The expertise under this roof is simply incredible, words could not possibly do them justice. I would highly recommend for anyone, of any age, requiring any dental treatment.

Amazing clinic, experienced, top class clinicians, nurses and supporting staff. The facilites are superb, organisation on the high level, purpose built clinic is breath-taking. As a candidate on an implant course I used their facilities to do the surgeries on two occasions and can confidently say this is one of the best clinics I have seen in my 20 years as a dentist in the UK. Prospective and current patients may be reassured they are in the very skilled and capable hands of this top notch team. Best wishes.

Just had the best hygienist experience! I was told this would be amazing by someone else, so expectation was high. Megan, hygienist and dental nurse Anna were great. Lots of helpful information, and a super shine clean. Best ever! Thank you. Can’t wait to come back in Spring.

Very welcoming in reception…with offers of a drink. Saw Vicky who I talked previously to on the telephone who discussed various treatment options with very confident knowledge and was very friendly and put me at instant ease. Then was seen by Dom the dentist who again put me at ease which was welcomed by me who had not long had a bad experience…the dental assistant Ellie then took me for a scan…and again was lovely. I cannot fault anything about today’s experience. It was evident that the whole practice works as a team with good communication. Many thanks!

I would like to express my sincere thanks to Mr Nilesh Dayaram and his assistant for saving my complicated tooth and looking after me so well in an informed, professional and pain free manner. I felt safe while the procedure was carried out. And to have the time to ask questions before and after the procedure was reassuring. I fully recommend Campbell Clinic.

A superb service. My tooth extraction was quick and painless and far less traumatic than I had anticipated. Beatriz Sanchez is a highly skilled professional who also has the ability to make patients feel at ease. Since the extraction, pain has been minimal and I have not had to use any pain relief at all.

I had an appointment this evening with the dental hygienist. On arrival I was greeted warmly by Janice who made me feel welcome and relaxed. Megan the hygienist saw to me promptly and I was shown to the treatment room where I was introduced to her assistant Anna.My teeth needed a lot of work doing and I was extremely impressed with the professionalism and the manner everything was handled. I was in treatment for a whole hour and not once did I feel any discomfort which was testament to Megan’s experienced and masterful dexterous hands and Anna’s cohesive assist!I would highly recommend anyone seeking dental work to try The Campbell Clinic. I’m glad I chose to come here and as a repeat customer I’m confident that I’m getting the best care for my teeth here and will continue to do see in future.

I am very happy with the treatment I have received at the Campbell Clinic by all staff. To date I have had root canal treatment on a bottom molar and later, the tooth prepared for a crown to be fitted. Nilesh (my dentist) has been extremely professional, kind and friendly. He has explained all the steps of my treatment very clearly and I have total confidence in him.

The Campbell Clinic are an extremely professional dental practice that provide the very best treatment and customer care. I would like to, in particular, thank Shaun Sellars for all his hard work, care and brilliance in addition to Jess and Megan Knowles for theirs. A special mention also to Sharon and Daniella as well. I would highly recommend this business having been a customer for nearly a decade.
