Because prevention is easier than cure, we discuss what dental prophylaxis means: a set of steps that prevent the occurrence of dental caries and periodontal diseaseIn addition, these procedures help stop the progression and avoid complications, if these diseases have already occurred.
Prophylaxis can start at home, through primary prevention: proper brushing of teeth, use of a suitable toothpaste and toothbrush, along with mouthwash and dental floss. Home scaling or using baking soda to remove tartar are not recommended and do not have the effect that you can enjoy at dental office, by using advanced devices.

The oral hygiene and prophylaxis package includes: complete ultrasonic scaling, professional brushing, sanitization, fluoridation and dental sealing. The benefits of these procedures are numerous:

Ultrasonic scaling removes tartar deposits entirely and does not cause tooth damage or sensitivity after the procedure.
Professional brushing is done with special toothpastes and removes dental plaque from scaling, as well as any stains and discolorations on the teeth.
Sanitization complements the first two and involves blowing a strong jet of water, air and baking soda to penetrate the interdental and subgingival spaces.
The last step of the session is fluoridation, in which we apply protective gels with fluoride or milk proteins to strengthen tooth enamel and protect your teeth.
Dental sealants prevent cavities.
