Dental Hygiene

Good dental hygiene begins at home with an effective brushing and flossing regimen, but semi-annual hygiene cleanings are also important.

Your teeth are cleaned to remove built-up plaque and tartar from above and below the gumline for clean, healthy teeth and fresh breath. After that, your teeth are polished, so they look and feel great. Polishing also smooths tooth surfaces, so plaque is less likely to accumulate. Your teeth will be flossed, and children will be offered a topical fluoride treatment.

During your hygiene treatment and dental exam, we use cutting-edge technology to help diagnose any dental issues that might exist. Early detection of tooth decay, gum disease, and mouth cancer is one of the best ways to ensure the ease and success of dental treatments.

With routine hygiene cleanings and dental exams, you take an important step toward a lifetime of healthy smiles.

When you visit our dental practice, we will review your dental habits with you and offer advice or recommend additional steps you can take to improve your oral health, especially if you wear braces or have a dental restoration that may require using interdental brushes or a waterpik.
