Healthy teeth for a lifetime—that is our shared goal. A professional dental cleaning is more than just a cosmetic procedure. It is the most effective way to prevent the two most common dental diseases: tooth decay and periodontitis.
Tooth decay and periodontitis are considered the number one widespread disease; approximately 95 percent of the population is affected by them at some point in their lives. Much of the damage to teeth and gums develops gradually, long before it causes any symptoms. This is exactly where dental hygiene comes in: It removes what daily home care cannot, detects problems early, and at the same time reduces the burden on the immune system. At our practice in Kilchberg, an experienced dental hygienist will guide you through the process, from cleaning to your personalized preventive care plan.
Why Professional Cleaning Is Important
Bacterial plaque, tartar, and stains cannot be completely removed through home care alone. If left untreated, they can cause gum inflammation, which can progress to periodontitis. Professional cleaning interrupts this process, thereby not only protecting the teeth but also reducing the strain on the immune system.
Your Visit to Our Practice, Our Dental Spa
Each session combines a thorough cleansing with a personalized consultation. We tailor the process to your needs in an atmosphere where you feel comfortable.
This combination of treatments removes plaque and bacteria, which are responsible for tooth decay and gum disease. This reduces the risk of inflammation, and many people also find that their bad breath is significantly reduced afterward.
