Hygiene

Understanding that each person’s teeth and dental health are different, we tailor appointments with our patient’s needs and comfort in mind ­– ensuring quality and gentle care.

• Routine Cleanings for Healthy Mouths: Regular dental cleanings are crucial for maintaining healthy teeth and gums. Our skilled dental hygienists perform thorough cleanings to remove plaque, bacterial biofilm, tartar buildup, and surface stains that brushing and flossing alone cannot reach. By scheduling biannual cleanings, you can prevent tooth decay, gum disease, and other oral health issues, ensuring your smile stays bright and your mouth feels fresh.
  
  
• Periodontal Cleanings and Services: For patients requiring more intensive care, we offer specialized periodontal cleanings. These cleanings, also known as periodontal therapy, deep cleanings, or scaling and root planing are essential for treating gum disease (periodontitis). Our experienced hygienists meticulously remove plaque and calculus from below the gumline to promote gum reattachment and prevent further progression of the disease. Periodontal cleanings are tailored to address specific gum health needs, ensuring a thorough and effective treatment.
