Dental Hygiene Appointments in East Vancouver
A healthy mouth requires routine care to maintain the health of your teeth and gums. We recommend booking a visit with your dental hygienist for a professional cleaning at least once a year to keep your mouth clean and tartar free.
Why Do You Need a Professional Teeth Cleaning?
When food particles become trapped between the teeth and gums, they form plaque, a sticky substance commonly found on teeth. Over time, the plaque hardens into tartar and then stubborn calculus, which is difficult to remove with regular brushing. The bacteria in the tartar can weaken the gum, causing gum disease, a serious condition that can affect oral health.
What to Expect at Your Dental Hygiene Appointment
Your dental hygienist will use special tools to remove tartar that has built up around the gumline. They will also polish your teeth and provide oral care tips by pointing out areas with heavy build-up so you can address these areas more thoroughly when brushing.
