Hygiene by Waldorf Dentist Dr. Bradley J Olson

"Recent studies have indicated an important link between good oral health and overall physical well being. Our team philosophy of comprehensive dentistry means helping our patients to achieve a healthy smile and then to keep it by means of excellent hygiene care, both here in our office and at home." Waldorf Dentist Dr. Bradley Olson

The initial hygiene appointment is a get-to-know-you visit. It's very important that we understand your needs and goals first, and then we will be able to custom tailor a treatment plan; specific to you. Excellent oral care is the foundation of a healthy, beautiful smile and having a good relationship with your hygienist is vital. Our hygienists are appreciated by our patients for their compassionate care, gentle approach to treatment and clear communication skills. They are here to help you!

Our comprehensive dentistry treatment will begin with a complete examination including all areas of oral health:

• Oral cancer screening
• Gum evaluation
• Dental evaluation
• Bite evaluation
• Joint evaluation

Our aim is to be as thorough as possible and not miss anything that would compromise your oral health.

For thorough but gentle cleaning we use the new state-of-the-art Cavitron machine. This is a cleaning instrument that uses oscillating sound waves to gently remove tartar build-up from teeth both above and below the gumline. This kind of deep cleaning can usually be done without any comfort medication, but for our more sensitive patients we use very effective topical gels to keep them pain free throughout any procedure. Your comfort is very important to us!

A beautiful, healthy smile not only makes you look good, it contributes to the most precious gift you have; good health! Our hygiene team is here to show you how to protect that precious gift.
