Periodontal Care is an Important Part of Your Overall Health.

At High River Dental Centre, our Dental Hygiene Team provides Periodontal Care, because we believe that caring for your gums is one of the most crucial areas of dentistry. We take the time required to educate you about your dental & oral health to help you maintain healthy teeth and gums between appointments. During your appointment for Periodontal Care, we encourage you to ask us questions about your oral health — our dedicated team is always here to answer your questions.

Regular Dental Hygiene Appointments for Optimum Oral Health

When you visit High River Dental for your Periodontal Care, our team will clean your teeth above the gum line using a technique called scaling; and below the gum-line, with a technique known as root planing. We also use both traditional hand scalers and our ultrasonic scaling tools to remove calculus from your teeth.

How Often Should I Have a Dental Hygiene Visit?

The frequency of your Periodontal Care will depend on several factors. Teeth are susceptible to the accumulation of plaque and calculus, crowded teeth, or people with gum disease, will require more frequent visits and this may not match the frequency for the other members of your family. We evaluate each patient on an individual basis to determine the dental hygiene schedule that will meet your specific needs the best. The majority of the patients who visit High River Dental for their dental hygiene appointments come every 6 months, but some people may benefit from coming in every 3-4 months.
