At Deerfoot Dental Centre, our four hygienists keep you at ease during your dental visit to ensure a pleasant experience.
At Deerfoot Dental Centre, our four hygienists keep you at ease during your dental visit to ensure a pleasant experience. Our hygienists can assist with:
- Scaling and root-planing: remove built-up plaque and calculus that has accumulated on your teeth. This also smooths out the surface to reduce future build up between visits.
- Tooth polishing: reduce the appearance of stains from food and drinks like coffee, wine, and tobacco with a mild abrasive.
- Fluoride and desensitizing: fluoride strengthens the teeth enamel to reduce the wear and sensitivity of the teeth. Desensitizing treatments come with a tooth varnish to further protect the teeth.
- Whitening: we provide custom trays and gel to give you a brighter smile and remove tooth stains. Whitening will not affect the colour of existing crowns and bridgework. Contact our office regarding our whitening procedure.
- Oral hygiene instruction: our hygienists are knowledgeable about proper oral health and can provide you with proper instructions and advice on the maintenance of your teeth.
- X-ray procedures: to see decay not visible to the naked eye or to see underlying conditions of the jawbone, an x-ray may be needed.
- Children’s introduction: Our team provides a gentle and fun introduction to oral health for your child’s first visit. This is the beginning to ensure your child sees the dentist as a positive and healthy experience for future visits.
