Prevention and hygiene
Cleaning, periodontal assessment and personalized advice based on your risk.
Prevention remains the foundation of lasting oral health. Rather than waiting for problems to appear, we assess risk factors, adjust habits and plan recall visits tailored to each patient. Every hygiene appointment begins with a periodontal assessment, followed by scaling adapted to the deposits present. At-home hygiene advice is concrete and tailored to your dentition.

A cleaning does not replace rigorous daily hygiene. Certain conditions require more advanced periodontal treatment.
When a situation goes beyond what can be treated at the studio, we coordinate referral to an appropriate specialist. Certain treatments may require specialized expertise or interdisciplinary care — in those cases, we favour a clear, documented and coordinated referral.
Follow-up and care
Mild sensitivity is possible for 24 to 48 hours. Normal brushing and flossing can resume the same day.
Frequently asked questions
How often should I come in for a cleaning?
Every 4 to 12 months depending on your individual risk — we determine the frequency together.
Does scaling damage the enamel?
No. The instruments are designed to remove tartar without damaging healthy structures.
My gums bleed — is that normal?
No, it is usually a sign of inflammation. A periodontal assessment is recommended.
