Oral wellness programme
The health of your teeth and gum depends on two factors: on the one hand, on the regular purposeful dental hygiene that you carry out yourself on a daily basis and, on the other hand, on the professional cleaning of your teeth performed by us.
Why? The number one cause of dental diseases is plaque. The film alone does not cause diseases right from the start, but in the course of time it may develop detrimental effects by turning into dental plaques. These persistently cling to the surface of the teeth and gradually, like a wedge, advance between the tooth surface and the gumline.
If the plaque then becomes filled with bacteria, the process of destruction is already pre-programmed. The tooth surface is damaged and caries cavities occur. Small pockets are formed at the margin of the gingiva, which then become inflamed. This is when periodontitis starts.
Besides the trouble caused by this dental disease, the yellowish or brownish film just does not look very nice and deprives your teeth of their shining whiteness.
Besides the extensive advice we give you on your personal oral hygiene, our oral wellness programme also comprises the intensive professional cleaning of your teeth. Studies have shown that such a cleaning procedures is advisable every six months for healthy teeth and every three months for teeth afflicted with periodontal disease. Upon request, we can also make arrangements at shorter intervals to polish your teeth and give them back a smooth surface and their white shine after we have removed the stains resulting from tea, coffee and smoking.
