Hygiene Treatment

‍Treatment overview‍

Professional dental cleaning, also known as soft tissue maintenance, is essential for maintaining optimal oral health. While brushing and flossing at home are crucial, they can’t completely eliminate biofilm (plaque) build-up in hard-to-reach areas. Over time, biofilm hardens into calculus, which requires professional care to remove. At Dental Holistix, we use advanced tools and techniques to keep your teeth clean and your gums healthy.

How soft tissue maintenance works‍

Hygiene treatment involves a deep clean of your teeth and gums to remove biofilm, calculus, and stains. Our dental hygienists begin by assessing your teeth and gums for signs of gum disease or other conditions. A vegetable dye is then applied to highlight areas of biofilm build-up, and using cutting-edge tools like EMS Airflow, we gently remove deposits to restore your teeth to a clean, healthy state.
