Building solid relationships with our clients, Bridge Dental and Implant Clinic supports every individual’s oral maintenance at home.
Our guidance will help you establish a fabulous at-home oral hygiene routine, but this alone will not ensure a healthy mouth. This is why regular hygiene reservations are included in all Bridge Dental and Implant Clinic memberships.
These regular dental hygiene visits will enhance your routine. We will use specialist tools and instruments to ensure your teeth are as clean as possible. We’ll be able to see and reach places you can’t at home, and catch any dental issues early.

Regular hygiene check-ups can help ensure your oral health is maintained and prevent infections and diseases.
Hygiene treatments are a preventative method that keeps your smile happy and healthy. If regular check-ups are avoided, it could potentially lead to undiscovered infections, diseases, or even undetected mouth cancer.
The best way to avoid dental problems and maintain good oral hygiene is to go to your dentist regularly.
Typically, people brush and floss their teeth twice a day, which tackles the cleanliness and appearance of their teeth when they look in the mirror.
However, what you cannot see in the mirror requires the recommended twice-a-year hygienist visits to sustain your dental health and keep your whole mouth healthy.
Depending on the level of oral hygiene, we recommend scheduling a check-up at Bridge Dental & Implant Clinic every 3 to 6 months.
This way, we can always keep an eye on your oral health and use preventative care to eliminate diseases or infections.
Oral hygiene check-ups are just as crucial for implants as they are for teeth.
Bacteria can accumulate around the implants, potentially leading to infections and threatening the success of the rehabilitation.
– Smoking:
Smokers are more likely to develop gum disease at an earlier age. Research has found that smoking cigarettes more than doubled the rate of tooth loss for individuals and increased the chances of becoming completely toothless by 4 times.
– Lack of sleep:
It has been proven that sleep deprivation is the second leading cause (after smoking) of gum-related health issues. Individuals who experience 6 hours or less of restful sleep are more susceptible to gum disease, as pockets form between the gums and teeth, as well as bone destruction.
– Pregnancy:
A common yet often overlooked symptom of pregnancy is the softening of the gums. This makes oral hygiene even more important than usual, as soft gums can be more susceptible to infection and plaque build-up. Infected and bleeding gums could result in damage to your teeth, so it’s recommended that pregnant women have regular dental check-ups to ensure any dental issues are dealt with as soon as possible.
