Dental Hygienist

Why take an appointment with a hygienist?

It is essential to visit the hygienist twice a year in order to maintain the brilliance of your smile and perfect oral health.

Comfort, aesthetics and prevention

Removal of stains, whiteness and increased shine through polishing are among the main aesthetic results of the treatment. It also provides a pleasant feeling of cleanliness, fresher breath and improved sense of taste.

Our hygienists use airflow and the new guided biofilm therapy protocol!

A must for a healthy, glowing smile, professional dental cleaning with AirFlow removes harmful plaque from teeth and gums. 

Bacteria in the dental biofilm damage the teeth and their supporting tissues: gums and bone. But that's not all, these bacteria, which enter the body through the oral cavity, can also have interrelationships with many diseases.

This protocol called GUIDED BIOFILM THERAPY combines professional dental cleaning with oral hygiene at home: the best way to keep harmful biofilm under control.

The treatment at the practice is similar to a wellness cure. The treatment is painless and does not damage the teeth. GBT is a modern protocol that changes the rules of the game and is no longer comparable with the old methods of prophylaxis.

Dental biofilm is treacherous.
It is invisible, odourless, undetectable.

And yet it is the main cause of tooth deterioration (caries), gum disease (gingivitis, periodontitis) and even tooth loss.

The halitosis test for a breath that always stays fresh

The medical term “halitosis” typically means an unpleasant odor of the mouth and breath. This is not inevitable, since in 79% of cases this phenomenon originates in the mouth, and only in 21% of cases from the digestive tract or lungs.

Bad breath can be a real social handicap and it remains a taboo subject. Many people use drops, gums or lozenges that claim to freshen the breath. But although these products may temporarily mask the problem, they do not provide a permanent solution.

To combat this annoyance effectively, our hygienists use a device which, in a matter of seconds, measures and digitally displays the level of volatile sulphides (VSCs) released by bacteria on a scale of 1 to 6. They then provide the necessary care and professional advice to eradicate halitosis..
