One of the best ways of avoiding dental treatment is to regularly book hygiene sessions. It can also help you avoid bleeding gums and bad breath.

Even if you brush your teeth really well it is possible that plaque and calculus build up. Keeping your gums healthy not only protects teeth it can help you live longer!

Periodontal (gum) disease is now recognised as contributing to heart disease and diabetes.

Staining of your teeth is just the most visible sign that they need a clean. Millions of bacteria remain lurking in your mouth and are completely invisible.

At Ham Dental Practice  we offer an amazing system called Airflow. It painlessly blows away bacteria and stain, leaving teeth clean, gums healthy and your breath fresh. It’s the innovative new way to enjoy dental hygiene.

Airflow is an elective treatment that can be added to your routine scale and polish. It compromises a mix of compresssed air, powder and water.

 

Why Our Patients love Airflow Polishing for a Deeper Clean

Removes almost 100% of stains

The routine scale and polish is an effective means of removing stains, but Airflow goes one step further. If you have tenacious stains in your mouth, or a significant amount of plaque or tartar, we strongly recommend opting for Airflow.

Comfortable and sensitivity-free

Airflow applies very little pressure on your teeth and is suitable for patients with sensitive teeth.

Enhances teeth whitening treatment

Airflow can remove surface stains before you start a course of teeth whitening, maximising the results.

Instantly healthier-looking teeth

Plaque and tartar aren’t a great look for your smile. Airflow will leave your teeth looking stain-free, giving you the peace of mind and confidence that your teeth look and feel healthier.

Fresher breath

Plaque and tartar can release an unpleasant odour in your mouth, leaving you with chronic bad breath. Lingering food particles can exacerbate this. Airflow will remove all trace of the odour-causing substances in your mouth, which can help to improve your confidence and your in-person rapport with others.

Examination

We will examine your teeth for signs of gum disease and ask you if you have any symptoms such as bleeding gums.

Treatment

The Hygienist or dentist  will begin by using the scaling equipment to remove stains and finish off by applying the Airflow to take away the remaining stains left behind in between your teeth and in the hard-to-reach areas of your gum line.

Aftercare

• Attend for routine gum line cleaning when advised to by your hygienist.
• Attend dentist check-ups to have the condition on your gums checked over.
• Quit smoking to reduce the toxins in the body that negatively influence the development of gum disease
• Maintain a healthy diet that is not high in sugar.
