 Hello everybody, Andrew and my SP here with Dental L. So let's talk about why is it never too late to see a dental hygienist? And I say a dental hygienist and not a dentist because I do have my own practice. So I own a Dental L mobile hygiene. So I actually come to your home to clean your teeth, teeth whitening. I do exams, everything. So I actually come to your home. Children, adults, seniors, it doesn't matter. I see anybody. So why is it not too late ever? And I say it's because I've been seeing a lot of patients lately that have called me, they have sent me a message and they've said, oh, it's been like 13 years since I've been to a dentist, can you help me? Yes, absolutely you guys, it's never too late. Even if you think your teeth are horrible, they're probably not. Even if they are horrible, it doesn't matter. This is what I love to do. So I help your mouth be in the healthiest state possible. I do see a lot of patients where they think that that's not possible. They think even if it's just been a couple of years, yes, that's a long time, but still it doesn't matter. Even if it's been a couple of years, I have patients that say, I don't think you can help me. My mouth is horrible. I am sorry, but I want to get on the right track. It's never too late. If it's been two years and might take a couple hours to do a teeth cleaning, even if you don't want it all done in one appointment, I could come back to do it, but it doesn't matter you guys. It is so important to get the mouth healthy because if the mouth isn't healthy, you're not as healthy as you could be. Even if you think your teeth are horrible, I can make things look amazing. Trust me, even if you have so much stain, you don't know what to do with it, I can take that stain off and your teeth will look amazing. I have patients say all the time, oh my goodness, thank you so much for helping me. My mouth wasn't such bad shape, but now it just looks so much better and it's just so much healthier for you guys. So it's never too late. If it's been 20 years, two years, 10 years, 30 years, if you've never been to a dentist, it doesn't matter. You always have to start somewhere, even if it's as simple as me saying to you, okay, things actually look pretty good, but we need to do a good cleaning. It's going to take about two hours. Do you wanna do it all today or do half today, half the next time? Even if I say there's a lot of stain, it's going to take also a couple hours, I suggest using a new toothpaste, maybe because some people have low pH in their mouth where even if you have a mouthful of cavities, it could be because you are using the wrong toothpaste. Some people need a neutral toothpaste to help to neutralize everything inside the mouth. So then that way that cavity's bacteria doesn't have a chance to actually start in the first place. So that's just it. Even if you think you're doing everything you possibly can, if you're using a toothbrush every day, twice a day, if you're using a water pick once a day because you say I don't really like to use the floss, so I use the water pick, that's okay. If you're using the mouthwash every night but you still get cavities, you're probably using the wrong toothpaste for your mouth. So I can actually tell what type of toothpaste you need to use. Even if you go to the dentist and you typically have five cavities every single time, I can probably help you. So the next time you see them or me, you will not get any cavities because it depends. On the pH in your mouth, you might not even be using the right toothbrush. You might not be using it the right way. So I can help you guys with everything. So I have been a dental hygienist for almost 15 years now, you guys. Plus I do hold a specialty certificate in dental hygiene. So that actually allows me to do a lot more than your typical dental hygienist can do. So I am so much more than just cleaning the teeth. I can actually diagnose a lot of things that your dental hygienist might not be able to do. But if you're seeing a dentist now that is perfect, you guys, that is okay. You can still see them and you would see me for the teeth cleanings overall. If I feel you have a large cavity that I can't take care of. So I can actually take care of small cavities that do not need needles, do not need the high-speed handpiece, but they have to be tiny. So as a dental hygienist with a specialty certificate, I can actually take care of small cavities. Big ones though, I do have to refer you back to your dentist because they might have to take that out with the high-speed handpiece. If it's touching the nerve, you might need a root canal. But that's another story for another day. But I can actually do a lot of things where you might not need to see your dentist every six months. You can see them every year, but kind of save money that way because I can do the teeth cleaning, everything else. But I would still say to see them once a year, just for a dental exam because they can see things that I can't see necessarily. But I can catch things before they get a lot worse to needing a root canal. So it's never too late even. I've had a lot of patients that say, wow, I thought my teeth were so much worse. You have given me hope. Thank you. So if you're nervous to see a dentist, you don't have to see a dentist right away. See me and I can give you an honest opinion and see how things look. Plus, I do have a little digital camera to actually take pictures. So not x-rays, but I can take pictures inside your mouth too. And that is an amazing tool to just kind of show you what your teeth look like. And I can teach you guys about like plaque, charter, pH, cavities, the whole works. And if you guys don't know, I tutor dental hygiene and dental assisting students also. So I do teach. So I am all about dental. I've been teaching for about 15 years too. So I am all about dental, ask me anything. I will probably know the answer, okay? I'm quite the dental nerd. So let me know you guys, if you have questions, need help anytime, send me a message anytime, day or night, doesn't matter. So thank you guys so much for watching. I hope this helped you and I'll see you in the next one.
