Sometimes additional treatments are required to maintain optimum oral health. At Fresh Dental, our array of hygiene services includes:

Fluoride treatment: Professional-strength fluoride is applied to the surfaces of teeth, making them stronger and protecting them against tooth decay.
Periodontal treatment: This treatment prevents the progression of periodontal disease and returns teeth and gums to a healthy state.
Professional Teeth Cleanings: Having your teeth cleaned regularly helps prevent gingivitis, tooth decay, and loss of enamel from teeth.
Tooth Decay Prevention: Successful preventive care requires good oral hygiene practices at home and routine visits to the dentist.

Regardless of your needs, you can be assured that all of our hygiene services are performed by highly trained and experienced dental hygienists who are dedicated to supporting and preserving your continued oral health.

A review of your dental and medical history
An oral cancer screening
An evaluation of your overall oral health
X-rays to detect decay
Removal of stains, plaque, and tartar
A fluoride application
Sealants
Polishing of all teeth
At-home oral health education and instruction

I am so thankful to Dr. Johal and her professional staff. She was able to care for me knowing that financially I would take a long time to come through and when other dentists would not want to bother, since I had just been through chemo treatment. Thank you so much Dr. Joti!
