Our hygienist, Diana, works very closely with the dentists in order to help our patients prevent and reduce periodontal problems including gum disease and tooth decay. This forms a very important part of patient care as gum disease is the main cause for loss of adult teeth.

Regular visits to our hygienist will help keep your teeth looking clean and breath smelling fresh.
