Preventive Dental Hygiene Care

Healthy habits start early 💜

Creating positive dental experiences is about more than just clean teeth...it’s about helping children feel comfortable, confident, and supported while learning healthy habits that last a lifetime.

Gentle, preventive care can help build strong smiles and positive associations with dental visits from an early age ✨

A softer approach to dental care ✨

I know that for a lot of people, dental visits aren’t something they look forward to — and that’s exactly why I’ve created a space that feels different.

At Preventive Dental Hygiene Care, everything is designed to be calm, gentle, and never rushed. I take the time to really get to know my patients, understand their needs, and make sure they feel comfortable every step of the way.
My goal is simple — to help you feel at ease and confident in your oral health, without the stress.

Flossing can feel tricky — but the right technique changes everything. ✨

Many people avoid flossing because it feels awkward, uncomfortable, or they’re not sure they’re doing it properly. The truth is, once you learn the right technique, flossing becomes quicker, easier, and far more effective.

Flossing helps remove plaque and food particles from places your toothbrush can’t reach, helping to support healthier gums, fresher breath, and a cleaner smile.

If flossing has ever felt frustrating, you’re not alone — sometimes a few simple adjustments make all the difference.

Need guidance? I’d be happy to help show you the easiest way to floss and make your routine feel simple and effective.

Amazing!

After years of advocacy on behalf of Ontario’s registered dental hygienists, the ODHA’s board and staff are EXTREMELY excited to share the government’s announcement (https://odha.on.ca/y6AS) which is moving forward with the next phase in making scope expansion for registered dental hygienists a reality.

The government has officially directed the College of Dental Hygienists of Ontario (CDHO) to begin the work required to support the expansion of scope of practice, including enabling registered dental hygienists to:
- Prescribe radiographs;
- be a Radiation Protection Officer; and
- prescribe and administer local anesthesia by injection in the orofacial complex.

Today’s announcement has come about through the combined initiative of ODHA and CDHO.

We thank Minister Sylvia Jones for her leadership on this initiative and look forward to continuing to work collaboratively with the government and the CDHO to enable RDHs to practise more thoroughly within their scope of practice and provide important preventive oral care services to more Ontarians.

ODHA is the voice of the profession in Ontario, and we advocate for you to practise to your full scope of practice and expertise.

We are here for you!

✨ A Fresh New Look for Preventive Dental Hygiene Care ✨

I’m so excited to officially share my new logo and brand redesign. This wasn’t just about creating a new look — it was about designing something that truly reflects who I am, how I care for my patients, and the welcoming experience I hope every person feels when they visit. 💜💚

I didn’t want to lose the meaning and personality of the original logo. The first design was an important part of my journey, so many of those thoughtful elements were carried into this refreshed version — simply reimagined in a more modern, polished way.
Every detail has meaning:

🦷 The Tooth represents dental hygiene, oral health, and helping you care for your smile.
🌿 The Natural Elements reflect my gentle, holistic-focused approach and calm environment.
💜 The Heart symbolizes compassion, kindness, and the personal care I give each patient.
👩‍⚕️ The Character was created to feel warm, friendly, and approachable — because I want patients to feel comfortable and at ease.
✨ The Colours were chosen to feel calming, fresh, and uplifting.
The word Care means so much to me, because it is the foundation of everything I do.

Thank you for supporting this exciting new chapter. I’m so grateful to continue caring for this wonderful community. 💜

✨ Today’s the day… it’s finally here ✨�A fresh new look for Preventive Dental Hygiene Care 💜💚
This is something I’ve been thinking about for a few years now — and I may have even asked some of you your thoughts along the way! After 15 years of working independently, it felt like the right time for a refresh.
I wanted it to feel warm, welcoming, and still reflect the “me” you’ve come to know.

Same care… just a new look 🤍
I’m so excited to share this with you!

Same warm welcome. Same friendly face.
Just something new to smile about. 😊
The countdown is on… May 1st

We carry the products you need to help with dry mouth and protect the mouth and teeth against its effects. Call today for a free consultation and learn how to prevent issues associated with low saliva flow.

Dry mouth, also called xerostomia, results from reduced or no saliva and can affect the health of teeth and gums as well as the enjoyment and digestion of food. Left untreated, dry mouth increases the risk of tooth decay and gum disease.
