The bacterial plaque plays a decisive role in the development of oral diseases such as caries, inflammation of the gums or periodontitis. The metabolism of the bacteria breaks down food components into acids. This causes a decalcification of the dental hard substance and an inflammation of the gums, often coupled with unpleasant bad breath.
We therefore recommend to have a professional tooth cleaning carried out at least twice a year. This way you can optimally prevent the aforementioned diseases of the teeth, the tooth bed and the gums.
Studies have shown that regular prophylaxis can prevent 70 to 80 % of all dental diseases!
Systemic dental prophylaxis pursues these objectives:
- Removal of the firmly adhesive plaque
- Remineralisation of the dental hard substance for lasting dental health
- Increasing the resistance of the enamel to acids
- Inhibition of the metabolism of bacteria in the plaque
- Reduction of the risk of tooth loss
- Reducing the risk of developing caries or periodontitis
- Avoidance or prevention of bad breath
- Optical whitening of the teeth
