Why is it important to work with a dental hygienist?
The dentist’s job is to help in treating patients when concerns arise. The dental hygienist’s role is to educate patients on how to care for their smiles and to provide cleanings and dental x-rays that Dr. Ava Khodakhast further evaluates. Our hygienists can answer questions about your oral health and then pass this information to the dentist during the evaluation to ensure any issues you might have are cleared up and addressed during your appointment. Our hygienists are skilled and trained to clean the teeth and gums, providing deep cleaning and even periodontal cleanings if needed. They are the first point of contact when you visit the dentist’s chair and can guide you through your appointment every step of the way!
How do I develop a proper oral hygiene routine?
Our hygienists can also answer your questions regarding home care of the teeth and gums. Brushing, flossing, using suggested mouthwash, and visiting the dentist regularly can ensure a healthier smile.
Where can I turn for preventative and routine dental care?
Whether you need to learn more about improving your oral hygiene routine or seek help for a problem such as a toothache, relief is a phone call away!
