Professional oral hygiene<\/h1>
\n

<\/span><\/span><\/h1><\/header>

<\/p>\n

One of the most important objectives of dental care is to preserve oral health. Nowadays, dentistry is simply unthinkable without the prevention of oral diseases. This procedure consists of an oral examination, removal of tartar with an ultrasonic scaler, removal of tartar with hand instruments, polishing with air abrasion (baking soda blowing) and polishing with polishing paste.<\/p>\n

Why is it necessary?<\/span><\/span><\/h3><\/header>
<\/div>
<\/p>\n

There are indeed a number of very important medical reasons why going to the dentist should become a good and healthy new habit for you. Thorough regular dental care - brushing your teeth at least twice a day with a toothbrush and toothpaste, using mouthwash, a toothbrush and dental floss to clean your gums - particularly reduces the likelihood of dental disease. However, in today's fast-paced world, we don't always have enough time to look after our teeth so thoroughly.<\/p>\n

Without professional oral hygiene for a long time, the soft plaque that builds up in everyone's mouth and the tartar that forms in the teeth cause inflammation of the gums, which can lead to serious gum diseases such as periodontitis. Periodontitis leads to the dissolution of the bone in which the teeth are anchored, which can even lead to tooth loss. Professional oral hygiene is a preventive measure against tooth decay, diseases of the oral mucosa and periodontal disease. An unhealthy oral cavity is open to infections and has a negative impact on the overall functioning of the body - heart, lungs, kidneys, joints and the foetus during pregnancy.<\/p>\n

Is this procedure painful?<\/span><\/span><\/h3><\/header>
<\/div>
<\/p>\n

Oral hygiene is usually a painless procedure, but local anaesthesia can always be used if the patient has sensitive teeth.<\/p>\n

For a few days after the procedure, your teeth may be slightly sensitive and your gums irritated.<\/p>\n

How often should I have professional oral hygiene?<\/span><\/span><\/h3><\/header>
<\/div>
<\/p>\n

It is recommended to see an oral hygienist a couple of times a year. This depends on the quality of each patient's oral hygiene and the intensity of plaque and tartar build-up. There are some people who need this procedure even less frequently than every year. In exceptional cases, where the patient suffers from systemic diseases, periodontal disease, smokes heavily, wears braces or has a genetic predisposition to increased plaque accumulation, it is advisable to undergo a professional oral hygiene procedure every 3-4 months. It is important to realise that regular care helps to avoid serious dental problems and saves time and money. Regular visits to an oral hygienist should become a habit for those who value their health and want to avoid cavities and periodontal disease, as dental and gum diseases have a negative impact not only on oral health, but also on our quality of life.<\/p>\n
