Oral Hygiene is the specialty that monitors the health of your mouth throughout your life.
Through periodic evaluations and preventive care, it is possible to monitor the evolution of oral health, control risk factors, and act before small problems turn into more complex treatments.
More than just a maintenance appointment, oral hygiene plays an essential role in preserving your teeth, gums, and all treatments performed, helping to ensure long-lasting results and a healthy mouth for many years to come.

What is the difference between brushing at home and an Oral Hygiene appointment at the clinic?
Daily brushing and flossing eliminate soft plaque. However, mineral residues from saliva cause this plaque to harden over time, turning into tartar. Tartar adheres strongly to the enamel and can only be safely removed at the clinic, using the dental hygienist's ultrasound equipment.
Can teeth scaling (cleaning at the dentist) wear down or scratch the tooth enamel?
I have very sensitive teeth. Will the oral hygiene appointment cause pain?
If I get a dental scaling, will my teeth get whiter?
