Dental hygiene refers to the practice of maintaining oral health and preventing dental problems through various procedures such as teeth cleaning, gum care, and oral health education.

 

Dental hygiene is vital for maintaining overall oral health. Regular dental hygiene services help prevent dental issues like cavities, gum disease, and bad breath, and can contribute to better overall health.

During a dental hygiene appointment, the hygienist will perform a thorough examination of your teeth and gums, remove plaque and tartar, polish your teeth, and provide oral hygiene instructions tailored to your needs.

 

At our clinic if we come across any findings that require any treatment we will let you know and refer you back to your dentist for treatment. If you do not have one we can recommend one.

The Dental Hygiene Client’s Bill of Rights, introduced by the Canadian Dental Hygienists Association, is now available to the public. This document outlines the rights of individuals when receiving dental hygiene care and provides insights into what can be expected from dental hygienists. Familiarizing yourself with these rights empowers you to make informed decisions regarding your oral health and well-being.
Bill of Rights

It is generally recommended to visit a dental hygienist at least once every six months. However, the frequency may vary based on your specific oral health needs, as determined by your dentist or dental hygienist.

 

Our clinic can provide you with take home whitening kits – just ask!
