Air Polishing

A spray of air and sodium bicarbonate and a water jet meet to quickly remove plaque and stains without pain. Plaque, soft deposits and discolorations disappear quickly and painlessly - even from interproximal areas. 
Ideal for... Tartar and stain removal. Air polishing prophylaxis means beautiful...smooth...white teeth. 
Also useful for...preparing the tooth surface for prosthetic and orthodontic appliances ... cleaning tooth surfaces prior to fluoride treatment... cleaning diseased areas for improved diagnosis

Plaque is the beginning of periodontal disease. Dental deposits and discoloration put dental health at risk. The air polishing cleans and polishes the surfaces of the teeth better than ever. Right afterwards, you'll be surprised at how smooth your teeth feel, and you'll be delighted by their bright, light appearance.

For prosthetics and preventive dentistry, air polishing removes superficial contamination and smear layer to guarantee that composites, porcelain inlays, dental crowns, dental bridges and laminate veneers bond properly and are long - lasting. When an air polishing is used, the teeth resume their natural color, helping you match shades exactly. In addition, you can clean telescopic units perfectly with an air polishing.

For orthodontics, use it for cleaning fixed bands and brackets. The air polishing can also be used for preparing the tooth surface for bonding brackets and removing bracket adhesive.

When fluoridating teeth, here too, you can use an air polishing for cleaning the teeth thoroughly to improve fluoride uptake.

For pedodontics, because milk teeth function as spacers, they should be retained as long as possible. That's why the occlusal surface of children's molars are often sealed. An air polishing treatment prior to applying sealants helps remove anaerobic bacteria reducing the likelihood of caries forming under the sealant.

For aesthetic dentistry, an air polishing treatment prior to bleaching improves results by eliminating the "bleach blocking" smear layer.

For implants, the air polishing pre-cleans implants prior to cementing the prosthesis.
