Prevention and oral hygiene are the foundation of a healthy dentition
Regular prevention of dental and gum disease is the foundation not only of long-term dental health, but also of easy social communication (fresh breath facilitates understanding). Proper and regular oral care preserves natural enamel, prevents tooth decay, prevents gum inflammation, and helps avoid bad breath. It is important to understand that truly effective prevention of oral diseases necessarily includes two components:
- thorough home hygiene (brushing your teeth twice a day using dental floss and an irrigator)
- visits for preventive checkups and visits to a professional hygienist at least once every six months
The therapists and hygienists at Club 32, a family dental clinic in the Holosiivskyi district of Kyiv, are true masters of dental prevention. Read the reviews; they speak for themselves. What's more, you can pay for these services in installments and without any extra charges.
How the dental and oral disease prevention procedure works
1) Examination and assessment of the condition of the oral cavity.
At our dental clinic, the professional hygiene procedure always begins with a thorough examination, during which the hygienist determines the amount of soft plaque and hard deposits (tartar) and selects the cleaning protocol that is right for you.
2) Removal of hard deposits (tartar).
Tartar is removed with an ultrasonic scaler: the device gently breaks down mineralized deposits above and below the gum line. This is a key step, as tartar is the most common cause of gingivitis and periodontitis.
3) Removal of soft plaque and pigmentation (Air Flow).
Next, cleaning is performed using the Air Flow method—with a directed stream of water, air, and a special powder. It effectively removes plaque and external staining from coffee, tea, wine, and tobacco, especially in the interdental spaces.
4) Teeth polishing.
At this stage, the dentist polishes the teeth cleaned of deposits with pastes and brushes/rubber cups. Polishing makes the enamel smoother, reduces plaque reattachment, and improves the appearance of the smile.
5) Fluoridation or remineralization (as indicated).
At the end of the cleaning, the hygienist covers the teeth with fluoride varnish or a remineralizing compound to strengthen the enamel and reduce sensitivity.
6) Recommendations for home care.
The hygienist selects individual products: a toothbrush, toothpaste, dental floss, or an irrigator, and explains the optimal cleaning technique.
We strongly recommend visiting the hygienist at least twice a year, and more often if there are special indications or braces, as prescribed by a doctor.
Key points in the prevention of dental disease
Prevention and dental hygiene mostly consist of simple but regular actions.
Follow our advice. Together with regular visits to the dental hygienist, they will ensure the long-term health of your oral cavity:
- Brush your teeth twice a day for at least two minutes, paying attention to the gum line, chewing surfaces, and hard-to-reach areas
- Be sure to use dental floss or interdental brushes and an irrigator: it is in the spaces between teeth that hidden caries and inflammation most often develop. An irrigator is useful for crowded teeth, orthodontic appliances, or implants
- It is important to choose the right toothbrush and toothpaste: if you have sensitive enamel, you need soft abrasives, and if you are prone to inflammation, you need products with anti-inflammatory ingredients
- Diet control is also part of prevention: frequent snacks and sweet drinks maintain an acidic environment that weakens the enamel
- Be sure to change your toothbrush four times a year and every time after you have had a cold or infectious disease
- Follow your hygienist's advice on brushing technique, as effective hygiene depends not only on the frequency of brushing at home, but also on the correct technique
In essence, this is modern preventive dentistry, focused on preventing causes rather than treating consequences.
