Preventive Care

A healthy mouth leads to a healthy body

Preventive Care

At the Fort Frances Dental Centre and Emo Dental Clinic, we recognize the importance of good oral hygiene. Routine check-ups and cleanings are essential in keeping a healthy mouth. We have over seven registered dental hygienists on staff who are eager to help you reach your oral health goals.

Preventive dental treatment varies from patient to patient. Together, you and your hygienist will determine a treatment plan specific to your needs and desires. Typically, your preventive treatment will involve a cleaning, which is the removal of plaque and calculus buildup from your teeth. Plaque and calculus contain bacteria which can cause gum disease and tooth decay.
