Preventive Care

Your First Visit

Your first exam in our office includes a visual examination of your teeth, gums, and tongue. This is followed by periodontal probing, diagnosis of any problems, and a discussion of treatment options. We will take a full set of x-rays to check and monitor conditions that cannot be seen during the visual exam. Please note that BC legislation requires you to have had an oral examination by a dentist within 365 days of your cleaning by a hygienist.

Periodontal Services

Periodontal (gum) disease can strike without symptoms and progress without your knowledge. Left untreated, gum disease can destroy the supporting bones in your mouth and negatively impact your overall health. We check the condition of your gums and provide education about maintaining good periodontal health.

Routine Dental Cleaning

Patients should come in for a dental cleaning every six months or as recommended by Dr. Henn or Dr. Andrews. During the cleaning, one of our hygienists will remove tartar and plaque from your teeth and educate you on how to maintain your oral health between visits.

Fluoride Treatments

The benefits of fluoride are widely known. It is the most effective agent available to help prevent tooth decay. We recommend fluoride treatments for our patients. Ask us about it at your visit.
