Dental Hygiene Cleanings for Adults
How Often Should I Have a Dental Hygiene Cleaning?
Most adults should have a regular dental hygiene cleaning and check up every 3-6 months. At Richmond Hill Dental Hygiene we recommend that adults who have a greater risk for oral diseases should see a dental hygienist every 3-4 months. Tobacco and alcohol use, diabetes, gum disease and poor hygiene are some factors that Mary Skrijelj, RDH will take into consideration when deciding how often you should check in for a dental hygiene cleaning.
Individuals who have demonstrated a history of good oral hygiene health can come at 6-month intervals. Mary Skrijeli, a dental hygienist with over 17 years of experience does not recommend waiting longer than 6-months because your oral health may be placed at risk. When any dental problems arise, they are best treated early with preventative dental treatment. If necessary, you may be referred to a local dentist or dental specialist for additional treatment.
