Air Polishing Teeth in Bromley
For sparkling smiles and fresh breath!
Air Polishing of Teeth—an Overview
You brush twice daily, floss, and use mouthwash religiously. Yet, your dentist recommends teeth cleanings once in a while. You know it’s essential—but the scraping, poking, and post-cleaning sensitivity? Not so much. Air polishing teeth in Bromley is a cutting-edge modern dental technique that will make your smile brighter and healthier without the discomfort of standard teeth cleaning methods. Painless teeth cleaning is now possible—using dental tools that don’t touch your teeth at all!
What Is Air Polishing?
Air polishing is an innovative dental technique that thoroughly cleans teeth without contacting the tooth surface or gums. It is essentially a jet of air mixed with a slurry of water and air-polishing powder used to remove plaque, tartar, deposits, and stains from the tooth and gum, leaving your mouth thoroughly cleaned and polished.
How Does Air Polishing Work?
This is how air polishing works:
The air polish jet: A high-energy jet combines air, water, and a specialist cleaning powder to create a forceful jet stream of air that softly but effectively removes stubborn stains and debris from the teeth.
The powder: A fine, minimally abrasive powder—available in pleasant fragrances such as lemon—is specifically created for cleaning. Common air-polishing powders include sodium bicarbonate, osspray calcium, sodium phosphosilicate, and erythritol.
Who Can Get Air Polishing of Teeth?
If you have any of the following conditions, airflow jet teeth polishing will help:
- Smokers and those who drink excessive tea/coffee daily: Teeth stains in these cases reappear often, demanding repeated teeth cleanings. Air polish teeth cleaning may be a better and healthier option.
- Sensitive Teeth: Suitable for people who feel discomfort and pain and are concerned about typical cleaning procedures.
- Orthodontic treatments with fixed braces: Air polishing is ideal for cleaning teeth with braces and wires on.
