PREVENTIVE DENTISTRY

The oral hygiene visit is a unique and individual experience to promote your oral health, which will influence your general health system, and also in your daily life.
Patients with systemic diseases as diabetes can notice changes in their periodontal health, which on the other hand influences on heart diseases. Therefore, a correct health and clinical history plus the diagnosis will promote a general healthier life. 
At this appointment, the scaling and root planning, if necessary, will be carried out, generally accompanied by complementary diagnosis exams. 
Also it will be performed a clinical periodontal evaluation with probing and evaluated any signs of dental caries, pigmentation or fracture. 
During the appointment, the small stains and the calculus will be removed and the teeth polished, reducing the number of harmful bacteria leaving you with clean fresh sparkling teeth. 
We recommend visiting the hygienist every 6 months, for most patients.
