Prevention and hygiene

Prevention and oral hygiene are an extremely important part of dental treatment. With the right healthy habits, you can maintain the good condition and appearance of your teeth. If you approach hygiene and prevention properly, you won’t need complicated dental treatment in the future. Of course, dental check-ups are very important, but by maintaining proper hygiene habits you will have a better chance of keeping your teeth fully healthy for the rest of your life.

How do you take care of your teeth and the entire oral cavity yourself? Actions to prevent tooth loss and tooth decay are, first of all:

• regular dental visits – depending on the doctor’s recommendations or your own preferences;
• regular brushing of teeth – 2-3 times a day for at least 2 minutes;
• brushing teeth with fluoride toothpaste at night;
• brushing teeth with a sweeping motion;
• rinsing the mouth with antibacterial mouthwash;
• flossing teeth regularly;
• observing good eating habits – limiting the intake of sweets and salty snacks and drinking sodas through a straw.

Proper prevention and hygiene, when it comes to teeth, as well as the entire oral cavity, can work wonders. However, when traditional methods fail, sometimes specialized help is needed. When, despite regular brushing and flossing, your teeth still don’t look their finest – we come to help. We offer a hygienization package, which includes scaling and sandblasting.

The first stage, which is where we really start the full hygienization, is scaling. This is a method of removing tartar, which can deposit in various places – where the use of a traditional toothbrush and floss does not work. It is most often found in the spaces between teeth. The second method of effective hygienization is sandblasting. This is a method of removing plaque deposits that appear as a result of drinking coffee too often or smoking cigarettes. At our clinic, we will restore the natural appearance of your teeth so you can enjoy your smile again.

In addition to prophylactic procedures such as scaling and sandblasting (allowing the removal of dental deposits and plaque) or fluoridation (which involves coating teeth with fluoride preparations, which significantly strengthens the enamel and helps inhibit carious processes), the doctor/hygienist conducts a thorough oral hygiene instruction tailored to the patient’s needs and preferences, helping him/her learn the best brushing techniques for him/her, the proper use of dental floss, and advising him/her on the selection of additional accessories and oral hygiene products.
