MIDHS, where your patients can access non surgical periodontal therapy direct, under your prescription.

An innovation by Maggie Jackson a dedicated Dental Hygienist to help
more Dentists, Hygienists and their patients control periodontal diseases.

After many years working in a specialist referral practice it was a natural progression, when legislation allowed, for Maggie Jackson to open a hygienist only practice to accept direct referrals from Dentists. The intention is to be a kind of ‘SWAT’ team to offer periodontal treatment to the patient under any referring Dentist’s control and prescription.

Together with other like-minded hygienists MIDHS (Maggie Jackson Independent Dental Hygiene Service) have the confidence and a rather ‘golden touch’ born from experience to treat many patients who are prone to suffer permanent damage to the supporting gum and bone tissues around their teeth identified as destructive periodontal disease. MIDHS will have a number of sites that will be developing, initially in the North West, as referral treatment centres for patients with overt gum disease, complaints or symptoms of gum recession, plaque, calculus deposits, complaining of bleeding from the gums.

We are, we believe, the first unique hygienist referral practices in the UK for Dentists, Hygienists and their patients with gum problems and where Dentists can refer and prescribe the treatment of patients with persistent periodontal symptoms. In addition to working in a more usual role focusing on preventative care or cosmetic scaling and polishing of teeth the team will undertake a more therapeutic function giving patients and Dentists a choice of local treatment centres that will concentrate on treatment of periodontal problems and the maintenance of disease prone patients. We will also be offering verifiable CPD for others wishing to advance their skills and confidence in periodontal treatment methods.
