Maintaining your smile starts with expert hygiene care.



Why Choose a Prosthodontic & Periodontic Clinic for Dental Hygiene?


At Vivid Specialized Dentistry, our hygiene services go beyond a basic cleaning. Because our practice specializes in prosthodontics and periodontics, our hygiene team—including Sam, our experienced dental hygienist—brings advanced care to patients with implants, crowns, bridges and dentures. This means we focus not only on ordinary plaque removal, but on preserving the function and longevity of complex dental work.


The Role of Dental Hygiene for Implants, Crowns & Restorations



When you have restorative dental work—such as implants or bridgework—your hygiene needs are specific. Sam explains that dental implants, unlike natural teeth, cannot develop cavities, but they can suffer from peri-implantitis if plaque and bacteria accumulate around them. Proper oral hygiene—including daily brushing, flossing, using a Waterpik™, and professional cleanings every 3–4 months—is essential to protect your investment and support long-term oral health.


Sam’s Expert Tips: What You Should Expect


  • Thorough assessments of gums, implants and restorations at each hygiene visit

  • Personalized cleaning plans that address the unique needs of implants and prostheses

  • Education on how to maintain your hygiene at home for natural and restored teeth alike

  • Guidance on how hygiene supports your overall health (since gum disease is linked to systemic conditions like cardiovascular disease and diabetes)
