Dental hygiene and prevention is a set of professional procedures that remove plaque and tartar, keep the enamel and gums healthy and prevent dental disease.
Professional dental hygiene complements your daily home care and cleans the areas an ordinary toothbrush cannot reach properly. Regular cleaning at the dentist lowers the risk of tartar, gum inflammation and decay.
During the procedure the doctor assesses your teeth and gums, chooses the best cleaning method and explains what to pay attention to in your case.
The doctor checks for plaque, tartar and signs of inflammation, to choose the right scope of cleaning.
With ultrasound we remove the hard deposits that home care cannot take off.
We use AirFlow (air polishing with fine powder and water) or ProphyMate (a similar air-polishing device) to remove the stains left by coffee, tea and smoking.
The enamel surface becomes smoother, so plaque builds up more slowly after the procedure.
The doctor explains how to keep the result and when to repeat the cleaning.

We choose it by the condition of your enamel, deposits and gums, not by a universal scheme.
During hygiene the doctor checks the gums and notices problems early.
We work carefully, without damaging the enamel or sensitive areas.
The scope and intensity of cleaning depend on your situation.
Regular hygiene lowers the risk of decay, gingivitis (gum inflammation) and periodontitis (deeper gum disease).
The doctor advises on home care and does not push extra procedures.
