Dental hygiene & professional teeth cleaning

The best treatment is the one that never becomes necessary. Our professional teeth cleaning goes far beyond daily brushing - gentle and thorough.

Why professional teeth cleaning?

Even with careful oral hygiene, deposits remain in niches and interdental spaces. Professional teeth cleaning removes plaque, tartar and stains from coffee, tea or nicotine - effectively preventing caries, gum inflammation and periodontitis.

How your treatment proceeds

  1. Examination of teeth, gums and implants
  2. Disclosing where needed: plaque is made visible - you can see for yourself where your toothbrush does not reach
  3. Airflow: biofilm and stains are removed with warm water and a fine powder, including between the teeth and in gum pockets
  4. Piezon: any remaining tartar is removed precisely and gently with ultrasound
  5. Check-up and fluoridation to protect the enamel
  6. Personal tips for home care and your next appointment based on your individual risk

The whole treatment mostly takes 30 to 60 minutes and is usually painless. With Airflow technology we remove deposits particularly gently and thoroughly.

How often is a cleaning advisable?

As a rule, we recommend a professional teeth cleaning every six months. If your risk is elevated - for instance with periodontitis, implants or during pregnancy - a shorter interval can make sense. Many German health insurers contribute to the cost.
