Oral hygiene

Oral hygiene is aimed at diagnosis, prevention and treatment of oral diseases.

Good hygiene is a factor that is crucial in preventing the majority of diseases that affect oral health. It is characterized by the correct removal of food residues and bacterial plaque, which, if not regularly cleaned, will lead to the appearance of tartar, caries and periodontal diseases.

To prevent such diseases, visits to the dentist should be regular (at least every 6 months) and should be followed by daily care recommended by a doctor. This care includes proper brushing (at least twice a day), flossing (at least once a day, preferably in the evening) and the use of mouthwash.

If you suffer from symptoms such as persistent bleeding or gum pain when brushing, bad breath and sensitivity, it is imperative to see a dentist.

Maintenance of performed treatments

Regular visits for oral hygiene are of great importance for maintaining oral health and the longevity of the treatment carried out at MEGADENT. During these visits, we assess the condition of all placed implants, crowns, bridges, fixed prostheses over natural teeth or implants, as well as restorations and endodontic treatments, so that early diagnosis of any complication is achieved. All preventive and therapeutic procedures carried out during these examinations contribute to the longevity of these treatments.

Ultrasonic cleaning

A treatment that consists of removing the bacterial plaque and calculus from the tooth surfaces using an ultrasound device. The goal is to eliminate the factors responsible for the majority of gum and tooth problems.

Fluorine prophylaxis

A procedure used to prevent tooth decay and reduce tooth sensitivity. A gel that contains fluoride ions is applied. This chemical compound remineralizes and strengthens tooth enamel.

Silanization

A sealant is a coating on the tooth that seals deep areas on the tooth surface. This coating is based on a photopolymerizable plastic enriched with Fluorine or Calcium, which are emitted gradually. It is placed on the chewing surface of the molars.
