What Is Dental Prophylaxis?

Dental prophylaxis involves preventative procedures that thoroughly clean a patient’s teeth and gums. The aim is to reduce the risk of gum disease and tooth loss. This dental treatment begins with a comprehensive examination of the teeth before cleaning and polishing. The primary benefit of dental prophylaxis procedures is that not only do they prevent dental issues, but they can also act as a routine method of deep teeth cleaning. This ensures high levels of gum health and oral hygiene, as well as reducing plaque and staining.

What Are The Benefits Of Dental Prophylaxis?

One of the major benefits of dental prophylaxis is its ability to eliminate the bacteria that cause bad breath and increase the potential for gum disease and tooth loss. Not only does it leave the patient’s mouth feeling clean and fresh, but it also has lots of preventative benefits in the long run! By using dental prophylaxis as a method of maintaining good oral health and hygiene, this procedure can ensure that patients see fewer gum and teeth-related issues over time. It also allows for the effective removal of plaque buildup both above and below the gum line, helping to prevent periodontal disease and gingivitis.

What Are Prophylaxis Cups?

One fundamental piece of equipment that is essential to this treatment is prophylaxis cups, which are used for the polishing and brightening of dental surfaces and cement. Designed to be attached to handpieces, they offer accuracy and precision while also allowing for easy replacement. Prophylaxis cups make contact with the dental surface and are moved by dental professionals in specific motions to clean and polish. They help to remove plaque and discolouration and are often used alongside prophylaxis dental pastes to achieve optimal results.
