Periodontal Maintenance
Expert oral care after treatment - keeping your teeth and gums healthy
Once your treatment is completed, our experienced hygienists will ensure your oral health is maintained with thorough cleanings and home oral care education.
Gum disease is persistent and can return easily after treatment if follow-up oral care is not adequate. It requires the continuous removal of bacteria that accumulate on the teeth to prevent the further development of plaque and calculus, which cause gum disease.
The doctor will tailor the frequency of your cleaning appointments to your individual needs. He will provide our hygienists with any special instructions needed to ensure your care addresses all concerns.
Gentle, thorough cleanings
Our excellent hygienists have over 25 years of experience in providing comfortable and thorough cleanings. They use ultrasonic scalers and hand instruments to remove plaque and calculus from your teeth thoroughly.
After the bacterial plaque is removed and the tooth surfaces are smoothed, a dental jet-spray device called a prophy jet is used for final cleaning and polishing. The prophy jet shoots a high-pressure sodium bicarbonate stream that removes stains from coffee, smoking, and other hard-to-clean elements that cannot be removed with other instruments.
Home oral care education
Our hygienists utilize educational videos and other materials to teach you effective oral care practices, enabling you to maintain healthy teeth and gums.
They will also recommend the home oral care tools you need to maintain healthy teeth and gums, and train you on how to brush and floss properly for optimal results.
