What To Expect When You Visit Your Hygienist

When you come to see us, we will most likely give you a scale and polish. This is a professional dental cleaning that helps remove tartar from around the gum line. It's a quick and painless procedure, but it's critical in preventing gingivitis (gum sensitivity) and gum disease, which can lead to tooth loss if left untreated. We recommend that patients have a scale and polish every three months to ensure that teeth remain clean, healthy, and tartar-free.
