PROFESSIONAL TOOTH CLEANING (ORAL HYGIENE)
Oral hygiene is an integral element of our culture, which began to take shape in ancient times, with the use of tufts of grass and sticks for brushing teeth, which are still popular with some nationalities, and has reached a significant development in our time.
Deposits are called plaque and calculus, which result from improper oral care. They deliver not only aesthetic discomfort. If they are not removed in time, there is a risk of developing caries and periodontitis, and, accordingly, losing teeth later.
Even the most thorough cleaning of teeth at home does not guarantee the removal of dental plaque in hard-to-reach places. Complete disposal of tartar and microbial plaque in the oral cavity is provided only by professional oral hygiene using special equipment.
Our clinic conducts professional hygiene using ultrasonic scalers, Airflow air-abrasive system and hand tools. The latter is most often recommended.
Professional teeth cleaning is carried out in 2 stages:
-
removal of tartar with a mechanical instrument or by means of ultrasound;
-
removal of surface plaque, which is formed when enamel is often exposed to dyes - coffee, tea, nicotine, etc.
Ultrasonic teeth cleaning: a crushing blow to tartar
The ultrasonic method is one of the most effective methods. A harmless procedure will get rid of soft plaque, tartar, pigmentation from tea, coffee, cigarettes, coloring food without mechanical intervention. It relies on vibrational effects that occur on the entire surface of the tooth. This is a completely safe option that does not take much time. Using this method, the dentist will be able to get rid of even the hardest deposits, while not damaging the enamel layer.
After ultrasonic cleaning of the teeth, the tooth enamel is polished in order to eliminate irregularities in which bacteria can accumulate.
As a result of brushing your teeth with ultrasound, you get a triple effect:
-
complete removal of tartar;
-
prevention of inflammation of the gums;
-
improving the appearance of teeth.
Air Flow teeth cleaning: gentle plaque removal
The method of sandblasting removal of deposits - Air Flow - is gaining more and more popularity. It is often prescribed in addition to ultrasound. In this case, a special aerosol is supplied under pressure to the places in need of additional treatment.
