About
SAN LUIS OBISPO'S FIRST PURELY DENTAL HYGIENE PRACTICE
Excitingly, changes to California law have established a unique niche within the dental profession, giving hygienists the ability to provide optimal oral health care while working independently of dentists in a more relaxed, individualized and quieter environment. The Registered Dental Hygienist in Alternative Practice (RDHAP) was created as an independent dental hygiene practitioner with a key goal of increasing dental care access for underserved communities.The independence of RDHAPs as providers allow them the freedom and flexibility to reach out to patients in new and creative ways, providing new consumer choices for preventative treatment and services.
Pure Dental Hygiene is a patient centered approach to dental wellness. An environment dedicated to preventative care will enable the hygienist to thoroughly assess and treat oral health conditions through the provision of therapeutic, educational and preventative procedures to promote wellness. The “Pure“ concept uses some of the latest dental technologies that increase comfort while incorporating spa-like elements to make your experience more enjoyable. As part of this mission, “Pure” will endeavor to develop a partnering trust with patients to help them maintain a healthy smile for a lifetime!

Preventative Oral Hygiene Care:
Includes oral cancer screening, prophylaxis and polishing.
Non-surgical Periodontal Therapy:
American Academy of Periodontology treatment guidelines stress that periodontal health should be achieved in the least invasive and most cost-effective manner. This is often accomplished through non-surgical periodontal treatment.
Pit & Fissure Sealants:
Dental sealants are a highly effective preventive measure that can be used to protect the teeth in the back part of the mouth from tooth decay. The process involves applying a thin plastic coating to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth and allowing it to bond into the depressions and grooves of the teeth to form a protective shield over the enamel.
Customized Take Home Teeth Whitening:
Everyone loves a bright, white smile! Customized take home whitening appliances are definitely a great option for those who would like to use prescription strength whitening gel but would like to monitor their progress in the comfort of their own home.
Low Dose Digital Radiography:
Digital Radiography is the latest technology used to take dental x-rays. This technique uses an electronic sensor (instead of x-ray film) that captures and stores the digital image on a computer. Digital x-rays reduce radiation 80-90% compared to traditional dental x-rays.
Oral Health Assessment:
Great oral health is an essential part of a healthy lifestyle. Good oral care is important in maintaining healthy teeth, gums and tongue.
Oral Cancer Screening:
Screening patients for oral cancer every year helps us detect oral cancer as early as possible. Early detection of oral cancer facilitates early and aggressive treatment and can lead to better outcomes and survival rates.
Mobile Dental Hygiene Services:
An easy and effective way of providing dental hygiene services to those who cannot travel to receive treatment. This provides a dental office experience in the comfortable surroundings of the patients home or care facility. Additional Services Dental Hygiene Services
