Mouth hygiene and teeth whitening
Elimination of supragingival, subgingival, mineralized and non-mineralized dental plaque, dental calculus removal. Surface polishing of teeth, fillings and prostheses. Evaluation of personal oral hygiene habits, application of various therapeutic agents (e.g. GC MI Paste plus).
What are the benefits of Professional Oral Hygiene (POH)?
Professional oral hygiene prevents dental caries, mucosal and periodontal diseases (e.g. gingivitis, periodontitis), early tooth loss. All of this can be avoided if Professional Oral Hygiene is performed regularly. Main etiological factor for periodontal diseases is soft and mineralized plaque buildup. Dental plaque accumulates above gums, subgingivally, in the occlusional grooves, surface defects, under faulty filling edges, sides or prostheses.
It was found that, without regular teeth brushing or with no brushing at all, gum inflammation (gingivitis) occurs in a period of 10 – 20 days. If Professional Oral Hygiene procedure is performed, symptoms of gingivitis disappear in 1 – 8 days. If soft plaque remains on teeth for a period of 1 – 14 days, it becomes mineralized. Calcium and phosphate salts influence mineralization process by entering plaque structure from saliva and hardening plaque or even forming calculus.
