Prophylaxis
What is Prophylaxis?
Prophylaxis embraces all precautionary measures to prevent diseases such as caries and periodontosis. The goal is to keep the oral cavity broadly free from plaque and tartar by appropriate hygiene.
Effective prevention is always individual and depends on your personal nutrition, your dental care habits and your general state of health. The necessary information and data can be drawn from interviews and gained from the study of the oral cavity and saliva tests.
Our team will gladly advise you and develop a prophylactic program individually tailored to your situation. The success will be visible and well-kept teeth remain healthy and beautiful – for a lifetime!
Prophylactic Measures:
- Visualize plaque by plaque-tinting rinsing
- Development of a dental care routine meeting your personal needs
- Professional tooth cleaning (all tooth surfaces are scaled and polished thoroughly)
- Fissure sealing (a protective varnish is applied on the grooves and furrows chewing surface)
- Fluoridation (coating for induration of dental enamel and reducing germs in the oral cavity)
