Adult teeth are meant to last a lifetime. To keep them in the best condition, it’s crucial to keep up on your dental hygiene. Brush your teeth twice a day, floss daily, replace your toothbrush (or electric brush head) every 3-4 months, and eat a nutrient-rich diet. Regular dental visits help keep your teeth thoroughly clean and catch any potential oral health problems early. Preventive care is always less costly (and painful) than treating a problem after it has progressed.
Keeping your mouth healthy is also an essential part of an overall healthcare plan. Our hygienists, working together with Dr. Skladany, provide the best oral health care, expertise, and dental health diagnoses possible to our patients.
Our dental hygienists offer three key services to our patients:
Preventive Services – promoting and maintaining good oral health
Educational Services – helping patients develop knowledge and behaviors that promote better oral health and understand the importance of practicing these behaviors
Therapeutic Services – providing treatments meant to curb or even halt disease and maintain healthy tissues in the mouth
