Difference between a standard dental hygienist
appointment and airflow?

Within both appointments, the hygienist will assess the oral health of your mouth, checking gum health and carrying out oral health screening. However, a standard dental hygienist appointment incorporates the traditional methods of scaling with an ultrasonic scaler or hand scalers or the blended technique of both.

The airflow dental hygiene treatment, uses the new innovative technology of a different machine to blast fine flavoured powders, jets of water and pressurised air to give you the ultimate clean, getting to places even you didn’t think you could. It comes in different flavours, of your choice, to create a totally different hygienist experience. 

Why should you visit the dental hygienist?

It doesn’t matter how meticulous you are about brushing and flossing your teeth, it is still possible to miss areas that need cleaning, especially if you have an overcrowded mouth or find it hard to reach all of your tooth surfaces. 

Even with a top of the range electric toothbrush, your dental hygienist will have special industry-designed tools and equipment that allow them to perform a more thorough clean than you can manage by yourself at home. 

Because dental hygienists are specially trained in the latest oral hygiene techniques they are able to effectively treat and manage your gum disease from a very early stage to help prevent it from developing into periodontal disease.

Standard cleaning & polishing

Standard hygienist appointments for those who prefer the traditional method, this can be carried out by using hand instruments, an ultrasonic scaler or the blended technique of both. Followed by a conventional polish using coarse paste to remove any staining from the teeth.

We discuss any oral health concerns with you. A thorough examination is carried out to check the health of the mouth, soft tissues, and gums. We then proceed to clean the teeth and gums and polish the teeth to remove staining and brighten your smile. Your hygienist will then tailor some oral-health instruction to your needs, including demonstrating how to floss and use interdental brushes correctly. Our typical recall periods for dental hygienist treatment is either: 3 monthly, 4 monthly, 6 monthly or annually - Depending on lifestyle and diet.

Respected and experienced cosmetic dentists

Dental hygiene is at the heart of Wisdom Dental, we believe in prevention over cure. Regular hygiene appointments will keep teeth healthy and prevent costly treatments in the future.

Remove stains for an instant brighter smile.

Airflow dental treatment

This contact-free treatment allows our dental hygienists to remove surface staining, plaque and tartar without the need for scraping. A jet of water, pressurised air and flavoured fine particles gently remove surface staining from all those hard-to-reach areas. Airflow treatment is also suitable for veneers, bridges, dental implants and composite bonding.

Will it hurt?

Airflow is a painless, fast and non-invasive method of cleaning. Teeth are cleaned in a much less abrasive manner, which leads to a more comfortable experience.

Why airflow?

The powerful jet polishes all the surfaces of a tooth, removing plaque, discolouration and soft deposits. This enhanced cleaning procedure helps to clean the spots that brushing can miss. It is far more effective and efficient than traditional scale and polishing.
