The benefits of ultrasonic dental cleaning Ultrasonic dental cleaning is to remove calculus, smoke stains and tea stains on the teeth through the high-frequency oscillation of ultrasonic waves, which can prevent bleeding gums or loose teeth, and help treat oral diseases such as periodontitis. , and the damage to the tooth surface is very small, the cleaning time is also very short, the treatment is convenient, the effect is obvious, and it will not harm the oral health. The process of ultrasonic scaling is:
1. Gargle with mouthwash to reduce oral pollution.
2. Use ultrasonic scaling machine to clean teeth.
3. Scale the deep periodontal area.
4. Use sandblasting for accumulated pigments. Advantages of Ultrasonic Scaling Ultrasonic scaling is the most advanced cleaning technology at present. The principle of ultrasonic tooth scaling is to use a special sandblasting tooth powder to remove plaque and pigment by spraying the sandblasting head to the tooth surface. It is suitable for cleaning dental plaque and pigment spots in the interdental spaces that are not easily reached by ultrasonic scalers. The cleaning efficiency of tooth surface pigments is also much higher than other ultrasonic scalers. Through the principle of ultrasonic scaling, we know that it has the characteristics of high efficiency, high quality, time-saving and labor-saving. Under the correct operation, the damage to the tooth surface is extremely small.
It also causes less damage to the surface of the teeth than manual brushing. Only under a magnifying glass can the very fine lines left on the tooth surface be seen. If there are loose teeth and sensitive teeth, you may feel sore and uncomfortable during scaling, but you don’t have to worry about it at all. Some people worry that cleaning teeth will harm the teeth. In fact, going to a regular dental hospital or dental department to wash your teeth will not cause any damage to your teeth, but will be of great benefit to strong teeth and oral health.
There is an interface between dental calculus and its attached teeth. When ultrasonic vibration is transmitted to the teeth through the handpiece, the calculus will vibrate and fall off, which is not harmful to the teeth. The sodium salt used in sandblasting is much less hard than enamel, so repeated sandblasting will not cause damage to the enamel. However, improper operation can cause tooth damage and cause unnecessary pain.
Some people feel that the gap between the teeth is larger than before after cleaning their teeth. This is because they have more calculus. Before the treatment, they could not feel the gap between the teeth, because the swollen gums and calculus filled the gap between the teeth. When the calculus was removed, the swelling of the gums subsided. , the original gap between the teeth is exposed, and it is definitely not because the gap between the teeth is enlarged due to scaling.
Some people have obvious allergies to their teeth after scaling their teeth. This is because the existing tartar before scaling is attached to the junction between the neck of the tooth and the gum, which blocks and eases the hot and sour sweetness. allergy symptoms. Therefore, within a short period of time after scaling, you should pay attention to avoid eating too cold, too acid and other irritating foods.
Usually, people with good oral hygiene habits need to be thoroughly cleaned about once a year, and those with poor oral hygiene need to clean their teeth in half a year; people with periodontal disease, in the stage of uncontrolled periodontal disease, wash their teeth every three months. Tooth once can help control the condition. None of this is absolute and it is best to consult your dentist. Here, I need to advise all tooth lovers not to go to the small clinics on the street without strict disinfection management to wash their teeth, so as not to lose the big because of the small.
