Professional Teeth Cleaning

29 August 2024

A smile is often the first thing people notice, making clean, beautiful teeth essential. Professional teeth cleaning removes soft, pigmented, and dense plaque from tooth surfaces using advanced equipment, making it one of the most effective methods for preventing oral diseases. This process restores the natural color of the teeth. Maintaining oral hygiene and professional cleaning are crucial for preventing gum diseases. However, improper cleaning by an unqualified practitioner can damage the mouth's soft tissues or tooth enamel. Therefore, choosing an experienced specialist is vital.

"Blits Dental - Kakhaber Kharebas Dental Clinic" offers a comprehensive range of professional cleaning procedures to ensure oral tissue health. These procedures include using an ultrasound machine, the Air-Flow system, and polishing with special pastes.

Professional cleaning is typically performed in two stages:

  1. Tartar Removal: Using mechanical tools and / or ultrasound to remove tartar.
  2. Surface Plaque Removal: Eliminating superficial stains from substances like coffee, tea, and nicotine.

Recommended Frequency:

  • Every 6 months for general maintenance of teeth and gum health.
  • Every 4-5 months during orthodontic treatment with braces.

Ultrasonic Teeth Cleaning

Ultrasonic devices effectively remove hard plaques and tartar, both above and below the gumline, which are key contributors to gum disease. This method is safe, painless, and does not damage tissues.

Professional Teeth Cleaning with the Air-Flow System

The Air-Flow device is a popular choice for gentle plaque removal. It effectively removes soft plaques and food stains from teeth, including those caused by tea, coffee, and smoking. The cleaning powder used is non-abrasive, containing ingredients like sodium bicarbonate, calcium, or glycine. Under pressure, the powder and water create a jet that safely removes plaque without harming the teeth, leaving them shiny, clean, and beautiful for an extended period.
