Airflow® Tooth Polishing

Get the most out of your hygienist visits by opting for Airflow® tooth polishing, which can enhance a scale and polish, to give you a brighter and healthier smile.

What is Airflow® Tooth Polishing?

Here at Earley Dental Practice, we love the Airflow® system and what it can achieve for patients. This meticulous treatment tracks down the lingering bacteria that sits in hard-to-reach areas of the mouth, and can also be used on restorations like bridges and dental implants. It works very quickly and is suitable for patients with sensitive teeth.

Why might I need to have Airflow® Tooth Polishing?

You may benefit from Airflow® if you:

• Have overcrowded teeth that are tricky to brush and floss.
• Are currently undergoing braces treatment, as plaque and bacteria are prone to sticking to braces.
• Frequently consume teeth-staining food and drink and wish to reverse the effects of surface staining.

Whilst Air Airflow® tooth polishing isn’t a whitening treatment so it won’t change the fundamental shade of your teeth, it can improve the appearance of stains which can tarnish the overall aesthetic of your teeth.

What can I expect during the Airflow® Tooth Polishing process?

A combination of fine powder particles, compressed air and a jet of water is applied to your teeth, which removes the biofilm that develops when plaque becomes populated by bacteria. We highly recommend regular Airflow® polishing alongside a scale and polish, as it will bolster the effects and reduce the possibility of gum disease developing.

What makes Airflow® Tooth Polishing great?

• It’s efficient, removing almost all the lingering plaque in your mouth.
• It can improve the appearance of stains.
• It’s 3 times faster than a scale and polish.
• No metal scraping tools are used.
• Results in fresher breath.
• Renders gum disease is less likely.
