Air Polishing: Reveal your brightest smile
Air polishing is a modern dental technique that offers a superior method for teeth cleaning and stain removal, surpassing traditional practices in both effectiveness and patient comfort. This innovative procedure utilises a fine stream of air, water, and specialised powder particles, to gently yet thoroughly remove plaque, biofilm, and superficial stains from the tooth surface, even in hard-to-reach areas.
One of the primary benefits of air polishing lies in its exceptional efficiency in stain removal. It effectively tackles discoloration caused by coffee, tea, red wine, and tobacco, revealing a brighter, more natural smile. Unlike conventional scaling, which can sometimes feel abrasive, air polishing is remarkably gentle. The non-contact nature of the spray minimises the risk of scratching tooth enamel, making it an ideal option for individuals with sensitive teeth or those who find traditional cleaning uncomfortable.
The micro-fine particles can navigate the intricate surfaces of the teeth, ensuring a comprehensive clean that promotes overall oral health. Beyond the aesthetic improvements, the thorough removal of plaque and biofilm significantly reduces the risk of cavities. By disrupting the bacterial colonies that contribute to these issues, air polishing contributes to a healthier oral microbiome. The quick and less invasive nature of the procedure also means shorter appointment times and a more pleasant experience for the patient, encouraging regular dental visits and proactive oral hygiene.
