During a hygiene appointment, our dental hygienist will gently clean your teeth, polish away surface stains, and check for early signs of oral health issues. Fluoride or sealants may be applied for added protection. You’ll also receive expert advice on maintaining a healthy routine at home. At Viva Dental, every hygiene visit is designed to keep your smile strong, fresh, and confident.
After your professional cleaning, avoid consuming foods or drinks that can stain—such as coffee or wine—for a few hours. Your gums may feel slightly sensitive, so brush gently and use a soft-bristled toothbrush. Continue daily flossing to prevent plaque buildup and drink plenty of water to keep your mouth clean. Maintain your next checkup every six months for best oral health.
1. How often should I see a dental hygienist?
Every six months is recommended for preventive cleanings and oral health maintenance.
2. Is a dental cleaning painful?
No. Cleanings are gentle, and any mild sensitivity is temporary and normal.
3. Why do my gums bleed during cleaning?
Bleeding may indicate gum inflammation or plaque buildup; regular cleanings help prevent this.
4. What can I do to maintain results at home?
Brush twice daily, floss regularly, and use an antibacterial mouthwash to keep your teeth clean.
5. Do I need X-rays during my cleaning visit?
Not always, but your dentist may recommend them once a year to check for hidden issues.
