Oral hygiene

We focus on oral hygiene to promote and maintain healthy teeth and gums.

At Joanne Lan Dentistry, we take the oral health of all our patients seriously. Our goal is to preserve your natural teeth by preventing the onset, progress, and recurrence of dental diseases and conditions.

No matter how meticulous you are with your oral hygiene, tartar and plaque can still build up on teeth. Tartar is an extremely hard substance that can only be removed by a dentist. A thorough oral check will also help pick up any oral issues such as cavities and gum diseases.

Visit your dentist regularly

Aside from visiting your dentist for a cleaning twice a year, you should also consult your dentist about conditions in your mouth and any ways in which your medical/health conditions affect your teeth or oral health. For example, you may be experiencing pain in teeth or gums, or sensitive teeth, or bleeding gums. We can diagnose and treat these issues before they become worse.

Why you should take care of your oral hygiene

Here are some reasons that good oral hygiene is important:

Oral pain (tender, bleeding gums), infections and missing teeth can affect your ability to talk, eat and feel confident. Being unable to eat can impact your nutrition, not to mention your enjoyment of food.

Research shows there is a strong link between poor dental health and chronic diseases such as diabetes, heart disease and stroke.

Taking care of your oral hygiene will help prevent issues such as cavities and gum disease.
