National Dental Hygienist Week | Truly Grateful

National Dental Hygienist Week gives us a special opportunity to pause and recognize a group of professionals who are absolutely essential to the care we provide—our remarkable dental hygienists.

At LADD Dental Group, we simply couldn’t do what we do without them.

When most people think of a dental hygienist, they think of cleanings—but their impact goes so much deeper.

Our hygienists are educators, advocates, early-detection experts, and trusted partners in our patients’ overall health. They are often the first to notice changes in oral health, helping catch concerns early and guiding patients toward the right treatment at the right time.

For many patients, their relationship with dentistry is shaped by their hygienist. Whether it’s easing anxiety, building trust, or simply creating a comfortable and welcoming environment, our hygienists play a huge role in making every visit a positive one.

At LADD Dental Group, we are incredibly proud of the level of clinical excellence our hygienists bring every single day. They are committed to continuing education, staying on the leading edge of technology, and delivering the highest standard of preventive care.

From utilizing advanced tools like Overjet AI to providing personalized hygiene plans, they are constantly elevating what great dentistry looks like.

Thank you for your dedication to your patients.
Thank you for your teamwork and leadership.
Thank you for the energy, positivity, and professionalism you bring each day.

You are the backbone of preventive care and a driving force behind our mission to provide the gold standard in group dentistry.

This week—and every week—we celebrate you.

Dental Work | Importance of Routine Dental Care | Preventative Dental Care

Importance of Routine Dental Care  When I was in my 30s and a dentist told me I needed a few crowns , I decided to skip the expensive devices because of my meager paycheck. Besides, my teeth weren't hurting. Years later, I am paying the price in pain and costlier dental work . One of the damaged teeth that needed a crown distorted my bite, making a minor jaw-joint problem even worse. Unfortunately I'm far from alone. The price of dental care is steep for many people financially, physically and even socially, according to Marko Vujicic, chief economist and vice president of the Health Policy Institute at the American Dental Association. Vujicic said that the  majority of emergency room dental visits  were for infections that could be handled in a dentist's office.
