Prophylaxis Center (Oral Hygiene)

The causes for caries and gum inflammations are well known: bacteria in the plaque which damage teeth and gums. This damage can be prevented or at least severely reduced through preventive measures. The aim is to keep teeth and gums healthy over the long term.

Professional teeth cleaning includes advice on the individual risk and oral hygiene at home, plaque removal, teeth polishing (implants) as well as fluoridation. This dental prophylaxis is individually adjusted. Since our specialists are very well trained, the treatment always conforms to the highest scientific standards.

Our professionally trained prophylaxis team will advise you on how you can best care for your teeth at home and which measures, from toothpaste to floss, are best suited to your needs.

Certain eating habits can be damaging to your teeth. This does not just mean sweets, an acid diet is also often dangerous for your teeth. We will personally discuss with you if you are at risk and how you can counteract this.

Braces often prevent the teeth from getting cleaned correctly and plaque being removed completely. A regular professional dental cleaning is therefore especially important for people who wear braces.

You will also be advised on how to best clean your teeth, despite the braces.

People with dental implants also need special oral hygiene. At the Prophylaxis Center the implant-supported crowns, bridges and prostheses are thoroughly cleaned with special instruments, in order to prevent inflammations from arising around the implants. These patients will also be advised on which cleaning methods to use for their implant-supported restorations.
