It is well documented and accepted within the healthcare community that there is a link between oral health and the health of the body. Periodontal (gum) disease is one of the most common human diseases.
Gum disease is often silent, meaning symptoms do not present themselves until you have already entered an advanced stage of the disease. It is essential to pay attention to the warning signs:
This serious infection that can go unnoticed as you will not feel it until it is too late. If left untreated, the bacteria that cause gum disease may travel through the bloodstream increasing the chance of heart disease, stroke, respiratory diseases and pregnancy complications.
Dental Hygiene, or Teeth Cleaning, is all about keeping your teeth and gums healthy. When you come in for a teeth cleaning at our dental office in Stony Plain, we remove plaque and tartar that may cause gum disease and cavities down the road if they’re not taken care of. Regular dental hygiene helps prevent these issues, keep your gums healthy, and make sure your teeth stay strong and look great. At North Stony Dental, we focus on thorough cleanings and also teach you how to take care of your teeth at home, so your smile stays fresh between visits.
At North Stony Dental, we ensure your hygiene appointment in Stony Plain is not just about cleaning your teeth, but an educational and comprehensive dental care experience. Each step of your visit at our dental office focuses on thorough care and patient comfort.
The Canadian Dental Association recommends that children have their first dental visit within six months of the eruption of their first tooth or by their first birthday. During these first visit, your child will have the opportunity to meet and feel comfortable around all of our staff including our dental hygienists. These early appointments are crucial for ensuring proper oral health and development.
For adults, it’s typically recommended to see a dental hygienist for cleaning and check-ups every six months to a year to prevent dental issues and maintain optimal oral hygiene.
