Dental Hygiene Appointment:

First step:

If you book an appointment with our dental experts, the first appointment is a screening appointment. The hygienist will review your medical history, and inquire about your current medical conditions. Personal and social history is also reviewed that includes a history of smoking or alcohol consumption, that can impact your oral health and hygiene routine.

The dental hygienist will then examine your teeth, gums, and tongue to assess your oral health. They will spot any issues with your teeth that need treatment such as cavities, and issues with your gums.

Second step:

After a thorough examination, the hygienist will do dental charting and clean your teeth with our high-tech tools. They will remove Plaque which is a substance formed by bacteria.  It is very important to clean the plaque because it slowly eats away our teeth leading to cavities along with gum infection.
