Specializing in Nursing Homes and Home Care Visits
Ontario residents now have the option of dental hygiene care by a Registered Dental Hygienist and not see a dentist, if they so choose. Legislation on September 2007, passed for Registered Dental Hygienists to become self-initiating and work independently from a dentist. Registered Dental Hygienists are able to provide dental hygiene care in their own private practice setting or through portable mobile units. Dental Hygiene is a regulated health profession governed by the C.D.H.O (College of Dental Hygienists of Ontario) and for many years, dental hygienists have been the primary providers for preventative oral care.
CMS Dental Hygiene Services brings quality dental hygiene care to residents of long-term care facilities, retirement homes and shut-ins and residents of community group homes. This service is to provide for ones who are unable to get to a dental office for preventative oral care.
Since 2009, the focus for CMS Dental Hygiene Services is to provide quality, personal dental hygiene care while improving the oral health of our seniors. Spring 2008, Cheryl McGrail Sinclair received the seal to self-initiate (without a dentist order) for dental hygiene care. Cheryl has been practicing dental hygiene since 1998.
Many seniors are retaining their natural dentition these days and preventative care is important to maintain the integrity of the oral cavity and the overall health of our bodies.
Many seniors or medically-compromised individuals have slipped through the cracks of the healthcare system and have no access to dental care. It may often be difficult at times for family members or friends to arrange transportation or take a day off work in order to accommodate the need of dental care. CMS Dental Hygiene Services uses portable dental equipment that can be easily set-up and dismantled right alongside the bed or the comfort of the lazy boy. Considering the health of the seniors and the susceptibility of diseases, infection control is universal.
CMS Dental Hygiene Services believes that providing this service in-home is a great way to meet the oral health needs of our loved ones. The environment is relaxed and comfortable within the long-term care facility, or client's home. No stress of travel time or extra cost incurred for travel and wait periods.
“Dental Hygienists are health professionals whose primary concern is the prevention of oral disease.”
