Like all of our staff members, our assistants place a high value on your health by maintaining strict levels of infection control in our office. Our Dental Hygienists are all experienced in the detection and treatment of periodontal (gum) disease and provide the highest level of care. At each visit measurements are made to determine the health of the bone and gum tissue surrounding the teeth. They also provide oral hygiene instruction so that you can maintain a healthy mouth. At each visit with the hygienist they also do an oral cancer screening. On your first visit you will meet our Front Office Staff. In addition to greeting you they are all knowledgeable regarding the benefits of the various insurance plans and in most cases they can answer most of your questions regarding your insurance plan.
