A healthy, appealing smile starts with a clean mouth. October is National Dental Hygiene Month, where we honor our hard-working, dedicated dental hygienists and the care they provide to protect your smile! Their goal is simple: helping you achieve greater oral health by helping you keep away cavities and gum disease. 🦷👻🎃
To honor our two hygienists, Maggie & Marsha, here at Dr. McCormick's office we asked them what made them want to become a hygienist & what is one piece of advice they would give their patients in order to help obtain a clean mouth!
Maggie: " I decided to become a hygienist because I really enjoy the family-oriented schedule, being able to form long lasting relationships with my patients, and help them maintain good oral health. My advice is keep up with regular hygiene appointments to ensure a happy, healthy mouth."
Marsha: "My interest was piqued while working at a dental laboratory. My goal was to educate patients to prevent tooth loss from experience I obtained from the lab. My advice is visit your dental office regularly for preventative care with hygienists to catch problems before they get worse."
