WHAT IS DENTAL HYGIENE

Dental hygienists primarily focus on preventive oral care, such as teeth cleaning, education, and maintaining oral health. Dentists, on the other hand, are trained to diagnose, treat, and manage various dental conditions, including performing complex procedures.

One of our main goals at Dental Hygiene Express is to ensure that every visit is as comfortable and pleasant as possible for each patient. For this reason we offer a variety of desensitizers to best suit your needs: topical anaesthetic, local anaesthetic, needle-free anaesthetic (Oraqix), MI Paste, and Duraflor. Most importantly we will work with you and your comfort level.

Dental hygienists are trained to detect signs of dental problems, but they cannot diagnose dental conditions. If any issues are identified during your appointment, the hygienist may refer you to a dentist for further evaluation and treatment.

Nope – It’s all included in your regular fee structure (we follow the ADA Low Fee Guide). The best part is you can actually save money AND time by not having to travel to a clinic!

Yes! Our hygienist team is especially good at working with children, and those with hesitations about going to get their teeth cleaned.
