Professional preventative dentistry available at our Dental Clinic:
- Regular check-ups performed at least once a year by a dentist or dental hygienist
allow them to asses oral hygiene and spot problems with teeth, gums and mucosa. A
dentist or dental hygienist can show you how to look after your teeth so they remain
healthy. You will be advised on the best brushing technique and given tips on choosing
toothpaste and toothbrush depending on your age and needs.
- Scaling, that is plaque removal, by means of ultrasounds doesn’t harm your enamel.
Plaque contains numerous bacteria responsible for, among others, bad breath, and poor
dental hygiene makes it build up even faster. Every professional scaling treatment
ends up with polishing your teeth and gives you the feeling of smooth and clean teeth.
- Sandblasting for teeth is a treatment which depends on removing soft plaque and stains
caused by coffee, tea and smoking. A sandblaster throws a properly aligned flow of water,
air and sodium bicarbonate directly towards the tooth surface. The frequency of the
treatment depends on patient’s individual needs.
- Fluoride applications depend on painting fluoride varnish, gel or foam onto the surface of teeth.
Both children and adults can be provided with this treatment since it strengthens the teeth and
makes them less prone to decay. It is used mainly to prevent decay and with sensitive teeth.
- Fissure sealants are dental treatment depending on filling pits and fissures with special
materials. These pits and fissures are areas where, because of the teeth shape, food sticks
and they are hard to clean, therefore bacteria can easily grow there and cause decay. Fissure
sealants are used in children and typically they are placed up to 3 months after the tooth
comes through.
