Preventative Teeth Cleaning

What is EMS Airflow Guided Biofilm Therapy?


EMS Airflow Guided Biofilm Therapy is an advanced dental cleaning procedure that uses a combination of air, water, and fine powder to remove dental plaque (biofilm) and stains from teeth and gums. This treatment is designed to be more comfortable and effective than traditional cleaning methods, promoting better oral health and hygiene.

Benefits of AIRFLOW® Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT):

  • Efficient Plaque Removal: The AIRFLOW® treatment offers the unique advantage of rapidly and effectively eliminating heavy plaque build-up, outperforming traditional scaling and polishing methods.


  • Customised Comfort: AIRFLOW® guarantees a pain-free experience, reducing common dental anxieties. For those with sensitive teeth, adjustable water temperatures ensure maximum comfort during the procedure.

Benefits of PMTC Cleaning


  • Prevention of Dental Issues: PMTC cleanings remove plaque and tartar, preventing the development of cavities, gum disease, and other dental problems. Early detection and treatment during cleanings can also help address issues before they worsen.


  • Improved Gum Health: Scaling during PMTC cleanings removes bacteria and calculus from below the gumline, promoting healthy gums. Healthy gums are essential for strong teeth and can prevent complications like periodontal disease.


  • Fresh Breath: Removing plaque and tartar eliminates breeding grounds for bacteria, leading to fresher breath and improved oral hygiene.


  • Stain Removal: Polishing during PMTC cleanings effectively removes surface stains, leaving your teeth visibly cleaner and brighter. This process enhances your smile's aesthetic appeal.


  • Oral Cancer Detection: During cleanings, dental professionals often conduct oral cancer screenings, enabling early detection and timely intervention if any abnormalities are found.


  • Preservation of Tooth Structure: Regular PMTC cleanings help preserve your natural teeth by preventing decay and gum disease. Preserving your natural teeth is essential for oral function and appearance.


  • Overall Health Benefits: Good oral health is linked to overall health. Regular cleanings can reduce the risk of systemic diseases related to poor oral hygiene, including heart disease and diabetes.


  • Personalised Oral Care: Dental hygienists can offer tailored advice on oral hygiene practices and products, helping you maintain your dental health between visits.


  • Positive Dental Experience: Routine cleanings promote a positive dental experience, making future dental visits more comfortable and stress-free.
