Preventive Dental Hygiene Care, Smithville

09/06/2026

I understand that walking into a new dental office can be a little intimidating, so I want you to know what you can expect when you come to see me. 💜

Your first visit is really about getting to know you … your oral health, your home care routine, any concerns you have, the dental care and treatment you’ve received so far, and anything that may be recommended moving forward.

By understanding the whole picture, I can recommend the products, techniques and in-office treatments that are best suited to you. Together, we can work to prevent or manage periodontal disease, cavities and tooth breakdown, and intervene early when I see areas of concern.

During your cleaning and treatment, I’ll explain what I’m seeing and help you understand what it means for your oral health. We’ll complete any preventive treatments you may need, and I’ll show you simple things you can do at home that actually work for you, your lifestyle and the goals you’ve set.

And please come with questions!
I want you to understand your oral health and feel comfortable and confident in the care you’re receiving.

My goal isn’t just to clean your teeth and send you on your way. It’s to help prevent problems before they start and give you the tools to keep your smile healthy between visits. 🌿💜

I look forward to welcoming you!

We brush our teeth every day... but sometimes it’s the smallest adjustments that make the biggest difference. 💜

The toothbrush you use, how you hold it, where you focus and even what you eat right before or after brushing, can all play a part in keeping your teeth and gums healthy.

That’s why I love talking about home care with my clients. It’s not about being perfect... it’s about finding simple things that work for you and help you get the most out of what you’re already doing.

If you’re looking for a new manual or electric toothbrush, I recommend and carry extremely soft-bristled Swiss-made Curaprox brushes at both of my locations. 🪥 https://curaprox.ca/en/toothbrushes/manual-toothbrushes

Hi, I’m Amy!

I’m a Registered Dental Hygienist who believes dental care should be personal. My goal isn’t just to clean your teeth…it’s to help you understand your oral health, prevent future problems, and make every visit as comfortable as possible.

I love getting to know my my patients, celebrating the wins in oral health, and helping people feel confident about their smiles.

The graphic shares a few fun facts about me, but the most important thing I’d like you to know is this:

I genuinely care about the people who trust me with their smiles.

Thank you for visiting my page! Whether you’re already a patient or simply following along, I’m happy you’re part of this community. 🤍

Most people think a dental hygiene appointment is just a cleaning.
To me, it’s so much more than that.
I want to know why you keep getting cavities. Why your gums are bleeding. Why your mouth feels dry. Why your teeth are shifting. Why your current routine isn’t giving you the results you want.
There isn’t one routine or one product that’s right for everyone. Your oral health is influenced by your habits, your medications, your health, your lifestyle—and every mouth tells a different story.
That’s why I take the time to listen, ask questions, and help you understand what’s really going on. Together, we’ll create a plan that’s realistic for you, so you can prevent problems before they become painful, time-consuming, or expensive.
Because prevention isn’t just about cleaning teeth.
It’s about finding the why.
🤍 If you’re ready for a different kind of dental appointment, I’d love to meet you.

When was the last time you changed your toothbrush? 🪥

If you can’t remember, it might be time for a new one!

Toothbrushes should be changed about every 3 months, or sooner if you have been ill, or the bristles are starting to look worn. Using a worn out brush with bent bristles can even lead to increased gum recession.

Such a simple little thing, but an important part of taking care of your smile. 💜

Be honest… are you due for a new one?

A little construction update! 🚧

Due to the ongoing construction on Hwy 20, our Smithville location will be temporarily closed, with plans to reopen on July 22.
I’ll still be checking voicemails and emails throughout the next couple of weeks, so please don’t hesitate to reach out if you need me.

We appreciate your patience as improvements are made in our community, and look forward to welcoming you back soon! 💜

🦷 Let’s talk whitening!
There are so many whitening products on the market today—from whitening toothpastes and strips to professional treatments. But not all whitening options deliver the same results, and some can leave teeth feeling sensitive.

I’m curious...

👇 What have you tried for whitening?
• Whitening toothpaste?
• Whitening strips?
• Professional whitening?
• Something else?

Did you notice a difference? Would you use it again?

Professional whitening can often provide faster, more noticeable results because it uses stronger whitening ingredients and is customized to your smile. But everyone’s teeth and goals are different!

Let’s help each other out by sharing experiences in the comments. ⬇️

💜 If you’ve been thinking about whitening your smile and aren’t sure which option is right for you, feel free to ask questions below or send me a message.

💧 Dry mouth may seem like a small problem, but it can have a big impact on your oral health.

Many people don't realize that saliva is one of your mouth's natural defenses. It helps protect your teeth, rinse away bacteria, and keep your mouth healthy and comfortable.

When saliva levels decrease, deposits can build up more easily, putting you at a greater risk for cavities, and gum disease. There is an increase in tooth wear, breakage, bad breath, irritated tissues, and there may be trouble with speaking and eating.

If dry mouth is affecting your daily life, let's talk about it. Sometimes a few small changes can make a big difference. 💜
