Hygiene & Diet Coaching

Hygiene and diet coaching pairs a thorough dental cleaning with practical guidance on the everyday habits that shape your oral health. Beyond removing plaque and tartar, this visit is a chance to talk through brushing technique, flossing, and how foods and drinks in your daily routine affect your teeth and gums over time.

What the Visit Covers

Cleaning & Assessment — Plaque and tartar are removed and your gum tissue is checked for early signs of irritation or disease.
Diet Discussion — We review common contributors to decay and gum inflammation, such as frequent sugar or acid exposure, and talk through simple, realistic adjustments.
Home Care Guidance — Brushing and flossing technique is reviewed so daily care supports what happens in the chair.

Tools That Support the Conversation

Intraoral Camera — Lets you see the same areas of concern we're discussing, right on the exam room screen.
Caries Detection Laser — Fluorescence detection can flag decay in its earliest stages, which often ties directly into diet-related habits.
Prophy-Jet Polisher — A gentle air-and-powder polish lifts surface stain and plaque without heavy paste.

Who This Is For

Patients often seek out hygiene and diet coaching after noticing new sensitivity, staining, or gum tenderness, or simply as part of a regular cleaning visit when they want more specific, personalized guidance on daily care.
