The oral cavity hygiene procedure, which is performed by specially trained specialists in the area, is one of the basic pre-conditions for the preservation of the health of your teeth and oral cavity. Only certified dental hygienists will take care of professional hygiene of your oral cavity at our clinic. Our dental hygienist will additionally perform a superficial examination of your oral cavity and provide recommendations on the required therapy.

Professional dental hygiene is a must, because the removal of plaque and soft deposits is impossible by cleaning the teeth in home setting, and the bacteria living in these deposits may cause deterioration of the teeth, gingival inflammation, periodontitis and bad breath.

WHAT IS A TOOTH APPLICATION AND A TOOTHSTONE AND WHY IS IT HARMFUL

Tooth caries, gum inflammation, or gingivitis, and inflammation, or periodontitis, of tissues around the tooth are infectious diseases, the main triggers of which are the microbes in the abundance and the denture of the tooth.
Tooth application is a Community of different microorganisms on the teeth.
You can’t brush your tooth with saliva or water. This can only be done mechanically, partly naturally, by eating solid food or using a toothbrush and dental floss, as well as high pressure oral irrigators. Toothpaste and mouthwash, on the other hand, help rid you of the bacteria that cause circumvention.

For its part, the toothstone has already hardened (mineralised) the soft and hard tooth application, which is made up of micro-organisms, dead tissue, saliva minerals and food residues. There are many different disease-causing micro-organisms living in the denture, which cannot be completely eliminated by daily oral hygiene products.
Excrete the gum and undergum sword, the most harmful of which is the undergum sword. It can only be cleaned during a professional dental hygiene procedure.
For the most part, you can’t see or feel the undergum sword with your tongue. It builds independently of the quality of daily oral hygiene, and its build-up is mainly due to the specificities of the gum fluid composition, the diseases that have been affected and the medications used.
Undergum denture is one of the main causes of periodontitis. This disease cannot be cured, but can be successfully contained by regular visits to a periodontologist. If this disease is not treated, there is a high risk of losing your teeth.

Thus, the soft and hard tooth application, as well as the denture, has not been cleaned regularly:

  • causes gum inflammation, pink swollen and bleeding gums
  • causes dental caries, especially in surfaces between teeth, if they are not regularly brushed with dental floss, as well as in the area adjacent to the gums, if, while
  • respecting the bleeding gums, the cleaning of the teeth is very superficial, in the biting surfaces of the teeth where natural grooves and dimples are located;
  • causes periodontitis, an inflammation of bone tissue around the teeth and deeper soft tissue, resulting in the formation of gum pockets and the movement of teeth;
    produces an unpleasant smell of mouth;
  • acts as a reservoir for microorganisms and, by long-term irritation and weakening of oral immunity, can cause diseases of the oral mucous membrane, most commonly chronic candidiasis, or milk fungus. Microorganisms can pass through inflamed gum tissue into the bloodstream and, if immunity is not stable enough to deal with it, also end up in internal organs and vascular walls with the potential to cause illnesses.

A professional dental hygiene procedure at least once a year, combined with proper daily oral care, significantly reduces the risks of infection mentioned above.

HOW ORAL HYGIENE PROCEDURE IS GOING

The dental hygiene procedure starts with an examination of your oral cavity, during which the overall condition of oral health is assessed. Advice from a dentist may be recommended, if necessary, following a hygiene procedure.
Once tested, you will be questioned about eating and drinking habits, smoking, taking various medications, the regularity of dental care and the means used for it.
In the light of the information obtained, the hygienist will instruct you, within the scope of his or her competence, to take the necessary action to improve the condition of the oral cavity.
The hygienist will visually and virtually explain the correct dental care technique using a jaw model and disposable toothbrush, and give you the opportunity to try it yourself.
If your consent is obtained, a hygienist using a special dye will mark the existing tooth plaster and allow you to clear the labelled plaster using the correct cleaning technique. This will show you visually and practically how proper dental cleaning technique affects your dental and oral health status.

After the above operations, if necessary, the hygienist will initiate your oral hygiene procedure:

  • the ultrasonic apparatus will clean the application and the denture;
  • the hand tool will clean the remaining and undergum application and the denture;
  • a soda jet will clean the remaining application and the teeth-staining pigment;
  • the teeth will be “dulled” with a special polishing brush and paste, thus clearing the remaining staining pigment of the teeth;
  • additionally, dental spacing will be cleaned with dental floss;
  • after the procedure, preparations containing fluorine may be applied to your teeth, which will strengthen the enamel of your teeth. If your teeth become sensitive during the hygiene procedure and you want to reduce the sensitivity, a special substance called hydroxylapatitis may be applied to your teeth;
  • at the end of the procedure, the oral cavity will be rinsed with special means and the face will be cleaned with a perfumed and warm wet wipe prepared in a special machine, giving you a pleasant and relaxing feeling after the procedure.

HOW THE BABY'S DENTAL HYGIENE PROCEDURE IS GOING

If the baby is small, you should note that there is a good chance that the hygiene procedure will not be possible for the first time. Under no circumstances should the child be forcibly forced to do so. This can lead to a situation where the baby will completely refuse to go to the clinic.
Let our clinic specialists do their bit to gradually persuade the small patient to try the new and unfamiliar thing through talking, cartoon showing and other calm and gentle methods.
After the baby agrees to perform the procedure, the correct dental care technique will be discussed with you initially.
It will be practically demonstrated how to clean your teeth properly, as well as if your baby and you agree, a special substance will colour the soft application, which the baby with the disposable brush will be able to clean by performing proper teeth brushing movements.
The soft and hard tooth applicator, as well as the denture, if any, will then be cleared with the hand tool.
Then, with a special polishing brush and paste, the teeth will be “polished” by brushing off the remaining teeth-staining pigment and soft lining.
In conclusion, a fluorinated gel will be applied to your teeth, which will strengthen your baby’s tooth enamel.
For bravery and patience, a little white will surely be given, which the baby himself can choose from a special toy box.
If necessary, your hygienist may advise you to cover your teeth biting surface with silant, thus protecting it from damage.

To learn how to clean your teeth properly at home too, a hygienist can give special health-friendly pills to your home, which you need to keep in your mouth before brushing your teeth to dye the tooth lining, which you then need to clean with a toothbrush.

WHEN A BABY NEEDS TO GO TO A DENTAL HYGIENIST FOR THE FIRST TIME

A baby should start visiting a dental hygienist at two-and-a-half to three-year-olds, i.e. when a full bit of milk has formed.
By this age, the baby’s dental condition should be monitored prophylactically by a child dentist, while the teeth should be nurtured by parents. You can read more about nursing your baby’s teeth here.
Our clinic specialists recommend taking children with them to their parents’ dental hygiene procedures from a young age. Thus, the child will become accustomed to the clinical environment and learn from your experience that such a procedure is routine and should not be feared.
