SW Calgary Dental Hygiene & Cleanings

Prevention-Focused Dental Hygiene & Cleanings in SW Calgary

At Dr. Korol Dental, we believe that excellent oral health begins with prevention. Our dental hygiene and cleaning appointments are designed to help you maintain healthy teeth and gums for life. Even with consistent daily brushing and flossing, plaque and tartar can build up in hard-to-reach areas, which is why professional hygiene visits are such an important part of long-term oral health.

Routine hygiene care not only keeps your smile looking and feeling its best but also plays a key role in preventing gum disease, cavities, and other oral health concerns. Our goal is to support your oral and overall wellness through thoughtful, prevention-focused care.

What to Expect at Your Dental Cleaning Appointment

When you visit Dr. Korol Dental for a hygiene and cleaning appointment, our friendly and skilled team will provide personalized care at every step. We begin by reviewing your medical and dental history so we are aware of any changes that could affect your oral health.

Your appointment will include a thorough examination of your teeth and gums to check for decay, gum disease, or other issues that may need attention. Next, we will perform a comprehensive cleaning using specialized instruments to remove plaque and tartar buildup, especially in hard-to-reach areas where brushing and flossing alone may not be enough. This process, known as scaling, is essential for preventing more serious problems in the future.

After scaling, we polish your teeth to leave them feeling smooth and refreshed. For added protection, we may also recommend fluoride treatment or remineralising solutions to strengthen your enamel and reduce the risk of cavities.

How Often Should You Schedule a Cleaning?

Every patient’s oral health needs are unique, which is why we will customize your hygiene schedule to best support your smile. For many patients, a cleaning every six months is recommended. Others may benefit from visits every three to four months, particularly if there is a history of gum disease, heavy tartar buildup, or staining.

The right frequency for you depends on several factors, including:

• Daily oral care habits
• Medical conditions
• Lifestyle choices such as smoking or teeth grinding
• Genetics and family history

Supporting Your Oral Health and Overall Health

At Dr. Korol Dental, our goal is to help you maintain healthy teeth and gums in a welcoming and professional environment. Regular dental hygiene visits not only protect your oral health, they also support your overall wellness by helping to prevent more complex dental concerns in the future.
