The Role of Hygienists and Dental Assistants
At Spokane Family Dental, our hygienists and dental assistants are crucial in your teeth cleaning visit. Here’s what they do to ensure your mouth stays healthy:
Understanding the Cleaning Process
Scaling and Polishing: Our hygienists meticulously use advanced tools to remove plaque and tartar, even from hard-to-reach areas. This step is vital for preventing gum disease and cavities. Polishing follows scaling to remove surface stains and smooth the enamel, helping to prevent further plaque accumulation. Discover more about our cleaning process on our General Dentistry page.

Preventive Treatments: Our team doesn’t stop at cleaning; they also apply fluoride treatments and sealants when necessary to safeguard your teeth against decay and strengthen enamel, offering lasting protection for your oral health.
The Dentist's Comprehensive Examination
Ensuring Overall Oral Health
Following a thorough cleaning, one of our dentists will examine your mouth for any signs of oral health issues, such as cavities or gum disease. This examination is crucial for identifying and addressing any concerns early on.
Diagnostic Services: Our state-of-the-art dental technology allows us to conduct comprehensive diagnostics, including X-rays, to uncover hidden problems and ensure every aspect of your oral health is monitored.
