Healthy teeth and gums are indispensable for maintaining good oral health. However when we talk about healthy mouth, we generally focus on teeth conditions and forget about another important dental structures, the gums that hold the teeth.
Lack of proper dental care can lead to infection of the gums, eventually resulting in bone damage and loss of tooth. It is important to keep your gum healthy for teeth that last a lifetime.

Scaling & Polishing
Calculus or tartar, is a crusty deposit on the teeth. It can cause discoloration of the teeth as well as gum disease. It creates a strong bond that can only be removed by a dental professional.
Why is it important to remove dental calculus buildup?
Calculus can contribute to tooth decay, bad breath and serious forms of gum disease. Regular removal of these deposits may reduce gingivitis and prevent progression to periodontitis and eventually tooth loss.
Painless EMS AirFlow Air Polisher
Airflow Prophylaxis is the latest EMS innovation for the ” Guided Biofilm Therapy”: A unique solution for caries, gum disease prevention and maintenance.
It removes biofilm, stains and young calculus from natural teeth, restorations and implants. It is comfortable, painless and can be used safely on all soft tissues.
Root Planing
When bacterial plaque and calculus deposit around and under the gums, tissues that support the teeth may be affected and periodontal disease develop causing deeper pockets to form.
Root planing involves detailed scaling of the root surface to smooth out rough areas, eliminating plaque and biofilm development and to remove any subgingival bacteria. Smooth root surfaces keep bacteria, plaque and tartar from re-adhering underneath the gum line, allowing your gums to heal and reattach themselves more firmly.
Gingivoplasty & Gingivectomy- Gum Reshaping
Commonly known as gum contouring, gingival sculpting, or gum reshaping, it is a cosmetic dental procedure that reshapes the gum-line. The treatment can be use to treat conditions like gingivitis or to improve your smile by changing the look and shape of your gums.
