What is Professional Dental Hygiene (PZR)?
Professional dental cleaning – abbreviated PZR or dental hygiene – is far more than a thorough clean. It removes dental plaque, tartar and biofilm from areas that cannot be reached with a toothbrush alone. Regular PZR protects against cavities and periodontitis, maintains healthy gums and contributes to general health: inflammation in the mouth is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes and rheumatism. With one dental hygiene session per half-year you invest in your dental health – and prevent costly follow-up treatments.
Our Methods of Professional Dental Cleaning
Depending on findings and individual needs we use the appropriate method – often in combination for optimal results.
Airflow (Powder Jet Technique)
Using a targeted mix of water, air and fine powder, stains, plaque and biofilm are gently removed from tooth and gum surfaces – including hard-to-reach areas and gum pockets. Particularly gentle on enamel and gums.
- Gentle & effective – even for sensitive teeth
- Removes coffee, tea & nicotine stains
- Suitable for implants & braces
- Body-temperature water jet – comfortable & gentle
Ultrasonic Cleaning
Hard tartar deposits are gently broken up and detached with high-frequency ultrasonic vibrations – even below the gum margin. Ultrasonic cleaning reaches areas that are difficult to access with hand instruments.
- Removes even heavily calcified tartar
- Cleaning below the gum margin
- Gentle & low-pain
- Ideal as a complement to Airflow treatment
Polishing & Fluoridation
After cleaning, tooth surfaces are polished with a special paste – this makes it harder for new deposits to adhere and protects against sensitivities. The final fluoridation strengthens tooth enamel and protects against cavities.
- Smooth surfaces – less new deposit formation
- Protection of sensitive exposed root surfaces
- Fluoride gel strengthens tooth enamel
- Fresh, clean sensation in the mouth
