PROPHYLAXIS

Professional cleaning

We provide specialised services for children, adults, pregnant women and the elderly to preserve tooth aesthetics and health. Prophylaxis, or professional cleaning, is a preventive measure against diseases such as caries or periodontitis.

Prophylaxis

There are very specific steps to dental prophylaxis: we use ultrasound to thoroughly and gently remove tartar, bacterial plaque and tough discolouration on and particularly between teeth. Areas such as grooves and pits in the teeth are then cleaned with a powder/water jet instrument. We then polish and harden the entire dental substance with fluoride varnish. To prevent halitosis, for example, the tongue is also an important part of the cleaning.
