To prevent oral cancer

Oral cancer is a deadly disease that can kill someone if not detected at the early stages(As per American Oral Cancer foundation every hour one death everyday).
The key is early detection of any abnormal lesion .Our office assesses the signs and symptoms followed by oral and head and neck exam performed by the Dentist or Dental hygienist at the Hygiene appointments to help detect the disease at the early stage and make the referrals

To prevent gum disease

Gum disease is a type of infection that if not treated at early stages can cause a permanent gum problem which is called periodontitis which can lead to the tooth loss .
Instructions given by the dental hygienist for at home oral cares such as brushing at least twice a day,flossing daily and using mouth wash when required accompanied by regular professional dental cleaning can prevent progression of a simple gum inflammation to a difficult to cure advance gum disease.
