What our patients say about us!
Periodontal Dental Care Calgary
At Expressions DentalTM Clinic, our general dentists are dedicated to delivering you oral health services like periodontal treatment in Calgary NW and looking after your overall dental hygiene. If you have active periodontal disease, the typical routines of home care, such as teeth brushing and daily dental hygiene- may not be sufficient enough, as those methods generally focus on areas of the tooth, which are above the gum-line and slightly below. You may need periodontal treatment in such case.
However with root planning procedures and regular scaling, our dental hygienists can remove the build-up of plaque, bacterial toxins, and tartar from tooth surfaces below the gum line, which are the areas that general home care practices are unable to reach.

“For the life of your smile!”
In addition to your periodontal cleaning and evaluation, your appointment with our general dentists will usually include:
- Examination of diagnostic X-rays that are necessary for detection of decay, cysts, tumors, and bone loss. X-rays as well help identify tooth root positions.
- Examination for tooth decay, we check all tooth surfaces for cavities.
- We examine existing restorations to check current crowns, fillings and many more.
- Oral cancer screening: we check neck, cheek tissues, lips, face, throat, tongue, and gums to find if there are any signs of oral cancer.
- We give necessary recommendations regarding oral hygiene like the use of special periodontal brushes, electric toothbrushes, rinses, fluorides, etc.
- We do teeth polishing of the patients to remove plaque and stain, which is not otherwise removed during tooth brushing and scaling.
