At Holford Partners Curaden, you can get the best quality dental hygiene treatments with our highly skilled dental hygienists. Using new and improved techniques we can help you improve your quality of life and feel confident in your smile.
A dental hygienist is usually the one performing the cleaning process.
But before starting any treatment, the hygienist will begin with a basic inspection of your teeth and gums to assess the level of staining and plaque build-up.
The dental hygienist will use a small mirror to closely inspect your teeth and gums for any signs of gum problems and other concerns.
Some underlying issues such as caries or cavities can not always be identified by the hygienist which is why you should attend regular check-ups with your dentist alongside your hygiene clean.
Using a small mirror for guidance, the routine dental hygienist uses a scaler tool to get rid of tartar and plaque around and under your gum line. They also clean between your teeth.
You can expect to hear scraping, which is expected in most clinics when it comes to scaling. At Holford Partners Curaden, we use an ultrasonic scaler that uses water and gentle vibrations. Hand scaling is also used to remove tougher deposits of tartar and plaque.
If you have a significant amount of tartar in your mouth, the more time your hygienist will need for scaling.
While brushing and flossing stop plaque from building up, sometimes it can be easy to miss spots, and the plaque hardens into tartar. You cannot remove tartar on your own, and you need a hygienist to do it for you with the scaler.
After scaling, your mouth is 99% entirely rid of tartar. So, the next step is brushing your teeth with a high-powered polishing brush.
You can expect a noise during this step, but it is entirely safe and painless. So, there is nothing to worry about.
This step does a deep clean, removing any tartar left from the previous step.
The hygienist will use a toothpaste that has a gritty consistency, but with the familiar toothpaste flavor and smell, you know. But you should know that this kind of toothpaste is only safe to use in the hands of a professional.
You might damage your enamel if you do it yourself.
At Holford Partners Curaden, our procedures are more comfortable, and you can expect to not feel any discomforts.
For that extra clean feeling we provide complimentary airflow polishing which uses a high-powered combination of compressed air, fine powder and water to deep clean your teeth and rid them of stains and dental plaque.
Airflow polish will remove stains removed from the surface of your teeth as well as between teeth. Polishing does not harm the tooth enamel and can be used on dental implants without the risk damage.
You can expect to be left with a super-smooth feeling that will certainly make you want to smile after.
Your regular flossing will never beat an expert flossing session with the hygienist. An expert can effectively get deep between your teeth.
Next, the hygienist will let you rinse your mouth with a fluoride mouthwash to eliminate any debris. At Holford Partners Curaden, we have a more specialized rinse, more of that later in the service description.
Finally, if necessary you may be prescribed by your dentitst to receive a fluoride treatment before leaving. This treatment can protect your teeth against cavities for several months.
Often, a hygienist can offer you flavour options so you can pick a preference. After you have made a choice, the hygienist will place the fluoride treatment into a mouthpiece that is made to fit over your teeth.
The fluoride solution is often a foamy gel but is sometimes a sticky paste. And you will have to leave the treatment on your teeth for a minute.
Aside from the gel, the hygienist will apply a fluoride varnish on your teeth using a brush. The varnish hardens when it comes in contact with saliva.
After the entire session, you are free to eat. And, you can come back for another session after six months or less.
CLEAN AND BEAUTIFUL TEETH
Clean teeth are always a social empowerment for anyone, and when you are self conscious about how clean your teeth are and scared that you may have bad breath, you will lose your confidence. So, get your teeth cleaned.
EXCELLENT ORAL HEALTH
Regular professional hygiene cleans by an accredited expert hygienist will significantly help you maintain your oral health. Along with excellent habits, exercise, and diet, you will have healthy teeth and overall wellness.
DISEASE PREVENTION
Professional cleaning removes plaque that builds up in your teeth, and it also eliminates tartar (hardened plaque) effectively. These are made up of bacteria that can cause severe diseases. Mitigate problems with dental hygiene cleans.
