The Dental Hygiene Team is a dedicated independent dental hygiene clinic situated at 25 Burgess Dr, Grimsby, ON L3M 2Z1, Canada. They can be reached by phone at (905) 321-2912 or through their website, dentalhygieneteam.ca. Operating as an independent hygiene practice, they leverage the allowance in Ontario since 2007 for dental hygienists to provide services independently of a dentist, thereby increasing accessibility to dental and
oral health care.
The team prides itself on offering individualized
dental care delivered by experienced dental professionals with over two decades of collective experience. Their core philosophy revolves around a holistic approach to oral health, prioritizing disease prevention and therapeutic interventions tailored to each patient's unique needs. Services typically offered by dental hygiene practices, and likely by Dental Hygiene Team, include professional teeth cleanings (scaling and polishing to remove plaque and tartar), fluoride treatments to strengthen enamel and prevent cavities, and the application of
Dental sealants to protect molars from decay. They also provide comprehensive oral health screenings, checking for issues like gum inflammation and early signs of oral cancer, and may take dental X-rays to aid in diagnosis. A significant aspect of their service is patient education, where hygienists demonstrate proper brushing and flossing techniques and offer personalized advice on maintaining optimal oral hygiene at home. They are committed to working collaboratively with patients to establish effective oral health plans.
While the "Team" in their name might suggest a larger group, the practice operates under the independent hygiene model, focusing on direct patient care for preventive and therapeutic dental hygiene. This allows for a more personalized and focused approach to maintaining and improving oral health.
