Important Benefits of the EMS Airflow® System
General Dentistry
Airflow® is the only technology that removes biofilm from inaccessible areas such as deep pits and fissures, interdental spaces, misaligned areas, below crown margins, around peri-implant sulcus, recessions and orthodontic appliances efficiently and in a minimally invasive way.
Orthodontics
Provides 100% accessibility around orthodontic brackets without the need to remove wires, ligatures or elastics. It efficiently removes all biofilm without damaging or altering the surface of the bracket, preserving the full bond strength. Plus Powder is also comfortable on the gingiva and soft tissue, increasing patient comfort.
Implantology
Implants require require additional care when compared to natural teeth to ensure their long term success and Airflow® allows for the efficient and safe approach to regular implant maintenance. The Airflow® system is minimally invasive with no risk of scratching implant surfaces, abutments or prosthesis.
Only EMS Airflow® is Minimally Abrasive
Tooth enamel surface before cleaning
The enamel prisms of the natural tooth enamel are easily recognisable. Remnants of bacteria killed off with sodium hypochlorite are visible.
Tooth enamel after polishing with low-abrasive paste
The vital enamel prisms have been polished away and the paste has caused scratches. Biofilm has been spread into natural crevices. Overall abrasive pastes cause a loss of valuable enamel which over time can lead to hypersensitivity. No improvement of the dental surface.
Tooth enamel after cleaning with Airflow PLUS powder
The biofilm has been completely removed. The surface is clean down to the pores. No abrasion. The enamel prisms remain intact and the surface is perfectly smooth. The tongue no longer feels any roughness and thee is no need for polishing with abrasive pastes. This preserves your enamel.
Why are regular check-ups important?
Dental problems typically don’t happen overnight, short of breaking a tooth! But dental problems can certainly progress over the course of several months to the point where more drastic and costly intervention is required. This is why it is recommend to get a check up every 6 months, so any issues can be identified and addressed before expensive and drastic action is required.
Think of it as servicing your car. To prevent long term issues, it is important to have it serviced regularly, even if it’s running perfectly well and not giving you any issues. The same is for teeth. Just because they feel fine and healthy does not mean that all is well and good.
For particularly nervous patients, or depending on personal preferences, sedation aids are available.
