Keep Your Smile Healthy—Before Problems Start

Regular professional cleanings and preventive care help you avoid cavities, gum disease, and costly treatments—so your smile stays strong for life.

✔ Prevent plaque, cavities & gum disease
✔ Early detection of dental issues
✔ Personalized care for long-term oral health

Why Regular Oral Hygiene Matters

Good oral hygiene isn’t just about a bright smile—it’s the foundation of your overall health.
Even with daily brushing and flossing, plaque and tartar can build up in areas that are hard to reach. Over time, this can lead to cavities, gum disease, and bad breath.
At Eglinton Oak Dental, our professional hygiene treatments are designed to go beyond what you can do at home—keeping your teeth and gums clean, healthy, and protected.

What’s Included in Your Hygiene Appointment

Comprehensive Oral Examination

We begin with a detailed assessment of your oral health, including:
  • Review of your medical and dental history
  • Checking for cavities, gum inflammation, and plaque buildup
  • Oral cancer screening for early detection

This helps us identify any concerns early—before they become bigger problems.

Professional Teeth Cleaning

Our hygienists perform a thorough cleaning to remove buildup and restore freshness:
  • Scaling to remove plaque and tartar above and below the gumline
  • Polishing to smooth and brighten your teeth
  • Flossing to clean between teeth and remove debris

This process helps prevent decay and keeps your smile feeling clean and refreshed.

Fluoride Treatment & Sealants

To further protect your teeth:
  • Fluoride treatments strengthen enamel and reduce cavity risk
  • Sealants may be recommended for back teeth to protect against decay

These preventive steps are especially helpful for patients prone to cavities.
