Dental Hygiene

Proper dental hygiene is the most important foundation to maintaining a healthy mouth. Our team of incredible dental hygienists work hard to make sure your teeth are maintained in the best possible condition. They remove plaque (sticky film on teeth that contains bacteria) and calculus (hardened plaque) off of your teeth, which decreases the risk of forming a cavity and/or gum and bone disease.
