Achieving a healthy and radiant smile is a goal shared by many. While traditional dental hygiene practices play a crucial role, advancements in dental technology offer even more effective and comfortable solutions. Waterer Dental Care in Leek is proud to introduce Airflow teeth cleaning, a cutting-edge treatment designed to gently yet powerfully remove stains and leave your smile feeling fresh and revitalised. If you’re looking for a modern approach to maintaining optimal oral hygiene and enhancing the brightness of your smile, Airflow treatment could be the perfect solution for you.
Airflow is also particularly recommended for patients with dental implants. The machine has a specialised tip that can be attached so gentle, comfortable debridement of the implant surface can be performed. It’s also the best hygiene clean for patients with fixed orthodontic retainers, which are notorious for tartar accumulation.
Airflow teeth cleaning is a state-of-the-art dental hygiene procedure that utilises the innovative power of air, water, and a fine powder to meticulously clean your teeth. This advanced system works by combining these three elements in a controlled stream, which is then directed at the tooth surface to effectively eliminate plaque, stains, and even the stubborn layer of bacteria known as biofilm. Unlike traditional cleaning methods that often rely on direct contact with metal instruments and abrasive pastes, Airflow offers a more non-invasive approach. The fine powder, often composed of sodium bicarbonate, glycine, or erythritol, acts as a gentle yet effective cleaning agent, polishing the teeth to a smooth finish. Many Airflow systems also feature the use of warmed water, enhancing patient comfort during the process. This combination ensures a thorough clean that is both kind to your teeth and highly effective at removing unwanted deposits.
Airflow teeth cleaning offers a multitude of benefits that can significantly improve both the health and appearance of your smile:
While both Airflow and the traditional scale and polish are effective methods for maintaining oral hygiene, they utilise different techniques and offer distinct advantages. Here’s a comparison:
| Feature | Airflow teeth cleaning | Traditional scale and polish |
|---|---|---|
| Method | Uses air, water, and fine powder spray | Uses manual scraping tools and abrasive polishing paste |
| Comfort | Generally more comfortable and less invasive | May cause discomfort, especially for sensitive teeth and gums |
| Stain Removal | Highly effective at removing surface stains | Effective for surface stains but may be more abrasive |
| Reach | Can reach deeper into periodontal pockets and tight spaces | May not reach as effectively into deeper or hard-to-access areas |
| Speed | Often faster treatment time | Treatment time can vary depending on buildup |
While traditional scaling remains a valuable method for removing hard tartar buildup, Airflow excels in biofilm and stain removal and is a gentler approach overall.
Airflow teeth cleaning is a versatile treatment suitable for a wide range of individuals, including:
When you choose Airflow treatment at Waterer Dental Care, you can expect a comfortable and efficient experience. Our skilled hygienist will begin with a thorough assessment of your teeth and gums. The Airflow treatment itself involves the gentle application of a controlled stream of warm water, compressed air, and fine powder onto the surfaces of your teeth. This process effectively removes biofilm, stains, and soft calculus from both above and below the gum line, typically reaching up to 4mm in depth. For deeper periodontal pockets, specialised nozzles can be used to ensure a comprehensive clean. Finally, a check will be performed to ensure all deposits have been removed.
It’s important to understand that while Airflow treatment is incredibly effective at removing stains, it is primarily a stain removal and cleaning procedure rather than a traditional teeth whitening treatment. Teeth whitening treatments typically involve chemical processes that alter the base shade of your teeth. Airflow, on the other hand, focuses on removing external stains caused by various factors, effectively restoring your teeth to their natural brightness. In fact, having an Airflow treatment prior to undergoing teeth whitening can be highly beneficial, as it removes surface stains and plaque that could interfere with the whitening process, leading to more even and effective results.
