Fresher breath, cleaner teeth, fewer problems. Prevent tooth decay, inflammation and periodontal disease with regular dental hygiene.
Dental hygiene is the key to healthy teeth without cavities and gum inflammation. Our experienced dental hygienist will professionally remove tartar, pigments and plaque from the surface of your teeth, which cannot be removed by regular cleaning and which could cause complications in the future. The treatment is gentle, precise and accompanied by an explanation of the correct brushing technique.
The dental hygienist will first check the condition of your teeth, gums, and the presence of plaque or tartar. The examination may use a probe or measure the depth of your gum pockets.
Using ultrasound and hand instruments, he gently removes hard tartar above and below the gum line. This step is key in preventing gingivitis and periodontitis.
A gentle stream of water, air, and powder removes surface pigmentation from coffee, tea, or smoking from your teeth. Your teeth will be left smooth and brighter after the procedure.
The teeth are then polished with a special paste to reduce the ability of plaque to form in the future and a fluoride gel or varnish is applied to strengthen the enamel, which helps protect the teeth from decay.
Finally, the dental hygienist will explain how to properly brush your teeth, use dental floss or interdental brushes, and recommend suitable tools based on your teeth.
Having a dental hygiene check-up at least once every six months helps to effectively prevent tooth decay, periodontal disease, and bad breath. It also increases the effectiveness of teeth whitening and extends the life of fillings or dental crowns.
Dental hygiene is a professional teeth cleaning that removes tartar, plaque, and pigmentation, while preventing tooth decay, gingivitis, and periodontal disease. It is an important part of prevention that regular home cleaning cannot fully replace.
Even with consistent home cleaning, tartar builds up over time, especially in hard-to-reach areas. It is the main cause of gingivitis, bleeding, bad breath, and bone loss in periodontal disease.
It is generally recommended to have a dental cleaning at least every 6 months. If you have braces, implants, a tendency to bleeding gums, or advanced periodontal disease, your hygienist may recommend more frequent check-ups, e.g. every 3-4 months.
Most patients perceive dental hygiene as slightly unpleasant, but not painful.

Yes. Sandblasting removes surface pigmentation caused by drinking coffee, tea, colored drinks, wine, or smoking.
No. Dental hygiene does not chemically whiten teeth, but it does clean them and remove stains, making them appear optically brighter. Whitening is a separate aesthetic procedure and is recommended only after completing dental hygiene.
After sandblasting and fluoridation, it is recommended not to eat or drink for 60 minutes so that the fluorides and protective agents have time to take effect.
Yes. It is even recommended because gum inflammation (pregnancy gingivitis) is more common during pregnancy, which can threaten the health of both mother and baby.
