Suzanne Ohrt is a dental hygienist specializing in the prevention of oral diseases, professional dental hygiene treatments and the long-term maintenance of healthy teeth and gums. She holds a bachelor’s degree in biology and psychology from the University of New Brunswick in Canada and subsequently earned her dental hygiene diploma from John Abbott College, also in Canada. This multidisciplinary educational background allows her to combine a strong scientific understanding of oral health with an attentive approach to patients’ individual needs and behaviors. Drawing on her expertise, she provides personalized preventive dental care and helps patients develop effective oral hygiene habits to maintain healthy smiles over the long term.
With a particular focus on preventing and managing gum disease, Suzanne Ohrt supports patients in maintaining good periodontal health. She provides care for individuals affected by periodontal conditions, including periodontitis, an inflammatory disease that can damage the structures supporting the teeth and eventually lead to tooth mobility or tooth loss. Her approach is based on careful oral hygiene assessments and preventive treatments tailored to each patient’s needs. Trained in Guided Biofilm Therapy® (GBT) by EMS Dental, she uses this modern preventive dental care protocol to effectively remove bacterial biofilm and dental deposits during professional hygiene treatments. This approach helps protect teeth and gums while prioritizing patient comfort and supporting long-term oral health.
Thanks to her background in biology and psychology, Suzanne Ohrt places particular importance on the human side of dental hygiene. She believes that effective preventive care depends not only on the quality of treatment but also on attentive listening, patient education and understanding individual habits. She takes the time to explain proper toothbrushing techniques, interdental cleaning methods and everyday practices that help reduce plaque buildup and prevent gum disease. Her compassionate and personalized approach aims to reassure patients, answer their questions and encourage them to take an active role in maintaining their oral health. She prioritizes practical, accessible advice tailored to each person’s needs to promote lasting improvements in dental hygiene.
Driven by a commitment to helping patients maintain healthy teeth and gums, Suzanne Ohrt combines her scientific knowledge, expertise in dental hygiene and training in Guided Biofilm Therapy® with attentive, individualized care. She places great importance on cavity prevention, periodontal health monitoring and supporting patients experiencing gum problems. Her professional approach is centered on prevention, trust, precise dental hygiene treatments and the promotion of effective daily oral care habits. Her priority is to help every patient better understand their oral health, reduce the risk of dental complications and maintain long-term comfort and a healthy, harmonious smile.
