The foundation of sound dental care is routine cleaning and maintenance. However, your routine hygiene visits are not only for cleaning.
These visits include a thorough examination and include an oral cancer screening, gum disease and decay evaluation as well as restorative evaluation. Your hygienist is a highly trained professional educated in the latest technologies and dental treatments available.
Your oral health and hygiene can also affect your overall health. Poor oral health resulting in high levels of oral bacteria has been linked to heart disease, stroke, diabetes and other serious medical conditions.
