Top Dental Hygiene Tips for Home Care
Maintaining excellent oral health starts at home. Follow these simple yet effective tips to keep your teeth and gums healthy between dental visits.
1. Brush Twice Daily: Brush for 2 minutes using a soft toothbrush. Avoid brushing too hard to prevent gum recession and sensitivity. Replace your toothbrush every 3–6 months.
2. Floss Daily: Clean between your teeth to remove plaque and prevent cavities.
3. Rinse with Mouthwash: Use an antibacterial rinse like Listerine to improve gum health and reduce harmful bacteria.
4. Limit Sugary Foods and Drinks: Reduce exposure to sugars and acidic foods, which can weaken enamel and increase the risk of cavities.
What to Expect at Your Hygiene Appointment
During your visit, our hygienists will:
- Clean your teeth above and below the gumline using advanced ultrasonic tools and hand scalers.
- Perform a periodontal assessment to check for signs of gum disease or bone loss.
- Assess gum recession, tooth mobility, and gingivitis.
- Polish your teeth to remove stains and strengthen enamel.
- Offer optional fluoride treatments to prevent cavities.
- Conduct extra-oral and intra-oral exams to ensure overall oral health.
- Take x-rays if needed for a comprehensive evaluation.
Your dentist will also perform a thorough exam and answer any questions you may have.
What’s New in Dental Hygiene?
Modern advancements in dental hygiene allow us to provide the most effective care. Our ultrasonic scaling tools gently vibrate tartar away, offering a more comfortable and efficient cleaning experience. This technology, combined with traditional hand scaling, ensures your teeth are thoroughly cleaned and protected.
Why Regular Hygiene Appointments Matter
Dental hygiene is more than just cleaning your teeth—it’s an essential part of maintaining overall health. Plaque begins forming minutes after brushing, and if left undisturbed, it can harden into tartar, which can only be removed by a professional. Regular cleanings help prevent gum disease, cavities, and other oral health issues.
Our hygienists provide personalized care based on your unique needs, whether you visit every 3, 6, or 12 months. Let us help you maintain a healthy smile for life.
