We’re Celebrating National Dental Hygiene Month!

October 15, 2021

October isn’t just for fall or Halloween, at least not for our team! We also love celebrating National Dental Hygiene Month all month long. We are especially grateful for our hygienists risking their health this year and last to keep our patients healthy! We hear gratitude from our patients every single day about how their hygienists have helped them improve their oral health and the appearance of their smiles.

Here’s what one patient said:

“I also got my teeth cleaned by the dental hygienist, and my teeth were literally glowing. She too worked very meticulously and was very informative. I left with a very happy smile! :)”

If you haven’t been to the dentist in a while, you can get an idea of what our hygienists do during your appointment in this ADA video.

Leaving patients with happy, healthy, shining smiles is exactly what our hygiene team loves to do! To get a clean smile , request an appointment at Total Dental Care of South Carolina in Columbia during National Dental Hygiene Month. Call 803-272-4162 or fill out our online form today. If you’re a new patient, we welcome you with open arms!
