What’s the difference between your office and a dental office?

As a dental hygienist, Glenna primarily focuses on preventive oral health at her independent practice. Dental hygienists are licensed professionals skilled in tasks such as cleaning (scaling) teeth, performing oral health assessments, applying fluoride, and educating patients on proper oral hygiene techniques.
At our clinic, while we do not have a dentist on-site, we prioritize the overall dental health of our clients. You can still see your dentist and for clients who do not have a dentist, we provide referrals to trusted local dental offices. This referral network allows us to help ensure that all aspects of our clients' dental care needs are met, maintaining a high standard of oral health care.

How do you ensure a comfortable and positive experience for your patients?

To guarantee a comfortable and positive experience for patients, Glenna is the sole dental professional attending to you throughout your entire visit. This approach not only ensures consistent quality of care but also enables Glenna to gain a deeper understanding of your specific oral health needs and preferences.
​
Additionally, our boutique environment offers a more relaxed and intimate setting, where each appointment is allocated ample time. This approach means there's no rush during your visit, allowing for thorough discussion and treatment without feeling hurried. It’s particularly beneficial for patients who prefer to take things slowly, providing space for conversation and detailed explanations. This patient-centered care creates a more personalized and reassuring dental experience.

Where are your offices located?

The Dental Armour home office is conveniently located in Orleans, offering a welcoming environment for all our clients. On a case by case basis, we provide mobile visits upon phone consultation. This service is available to accommodate homebound clients, ensuring that everyone has access to  comprehensive care and support.

Do you still provide mouth guards?

Yes, Glenna still provides athletic mouthguards as part of the services at Dental Armour.​
