Dental Hygiene in Regina
Gentle, Preventive Care For A Cleaner, Healthier Smile
Routine hygiene visits help prevent problems before they start — and support a lifetime of healthy teeth and gums.
Dental hygiene is about more than just clean teeth. These appointments help protect your gums, prevent cavities, and give us a clear picture of your overall oral health. Our hygienists work with patients of all ages, focusing on education, comfort, and prevention every step of the way.
Even if you brush and floss regularly, there are areas in the mouth that are difficult to clean at home. Over time, plaque hardens into tartar — and only a professional cleaning can remove it. Hygiene visits are a critical part of maintaining your oral and overall health.
What To Expect
A hygiene appointment may include:
Scaling to remove plaque and tartar from the teeth and below the gumline
Polishing to remove surface stains
Flossing and fluoride treatment, if recommended
An updated review of your medical and dental history
Oral cancer screening and gum health assessment
Personalized hygiene tips for home care
Our team takes the time to explain what we’re doing and why, so you always feel informed and supported. If you’ve experienced sensitivity, bleeding gums, or other concerns, we’ll make sure those are addressed gently and thoroughly.
Benefits Of Regular Cleanings
Preventive hygiene care helps:
Reduce your risk of gum disease and tooth loss
Prevent plaque buildup that can lead to decay
Identify early signs of trouble before they become complex
Keep your breath fresher and your mouth feeling clean
Contribute to overall health by lowering inflammation in the body
Staying consistent with your hygiene appointments also makes future visits more comfortable — and often shorter.
Frequency & Personalization
Most patients benefit from a cleaning every six months, though some may need more frequent visits based on their gum health or other risk factors. We’ll recommend a schedule that’s right for you and explain why it matters.
We also tailor our approach for children, older adults, and patients with anxiety or medical conditions. Our goal is to make each visit as stress-free and effective as possible.
