Preventive Dental Hygiene in Montreal
Oral Examinations
Regular oral exams, ideally twice a year, allow your dentist to identify any dental health issues.
Your dentist will assess the health of your teeth, gums, and jaw. The exams may also include X-rays.
Oral Health Care at Home
To maintain a healthy smile between dental visits, make sure to brush your teeth twice a day for two minutes each time and floss at least once a day.
Dental Hygiene Cleaning
The dental hygienist will perform a thorough cleaning of your teeth and gums.
The hygienist will remove tartar and plaque buildup and polish the surfaces of your teeth. Several types of progressively finer polishing pastes will be applied using a small rotating brush. To finish, the hygienist will floss your teeth.
Fluoride Treatment
If you or your child are at high risk for cavities, your dentist may also recommend a fluoride treatment. Fluoride is a natural mineral that can help rebuild the minerals in tooth enamel to prevent or reverse decay.
