Dental prophylaxis & dental hygiene in the heart of Lucerne
Wellness for your teeth and gums
The term dental prophylaxis originally comes from the Greek and was synonymous with prevention and measures to maintain health. Well-maintained and healthy teeth and the prevention of new dental diseases, such as inflammation of the teeth, gums and periodontium, are our primary goal. Because preserving your own teeth is always better than any dental prosthesis.
We also refer to prophylaxis as medical dental cleaning because it goes far beyond what can be achieved with dental care at home.
Regular professional teeth cleaning at least every six months is the most effective scientifically proven protection to maintain healthy and beautiful teeth for a lifetime and prevent bad breath. In the long term, this will save you toothache, time and money.
At your dental health center in Lucerne, we are happy to take the time to advise you on the subject of nutrition and your individual dental treatment and prophylaxis. Through targeted oral hygiene motivation and instruction, as well as regular semi-annual professional dental hygiene, we can preserve your most beautiful jewelry - natural and beautiful teeth - in the long term. With our efficient recall program, we work with you to determine your individual check-up intervals.
Good to know
How to keep your teeth healthy
Our individual prophylaxis is a preventive program specially tailored to our patients, with which diseases of the teeth (caries), the gums (gingivitis = an acute or chronic inflammation of the gums) and the periodontium (periodontitis = bone inflammation with bone loss) can be optimally prevented. It lays the foundation for your long-term dental health, as 70-80% of all dental diseases can be avoided through regular prophylaxis.
Scientific studies have shown that inflammatory diseases in the oral cavity can increase the risk of certain general diseases.
Did you know that inadequate oral hygiene increases the risk of respiratory diseases, heart attacks, strokes, premature birth and low birth weight? Diabetes, a weakened immune system and smoking increase the risk of tooth decay and inflammation of the gums.
Regular individual dental check-ups are important
This involves a:
- Assessment of your teeth
- Vitality control
- Brief periodontal examination
- Inspection of your oral cavity
- Assessment of the jaw relationship and determination of temporomandibular joint dysfunction (CMD = craniomandibular dysfunction)
Preventive measures are important
Individual, professional dental cleaning (PZR) reduces the risk of tooth loss. Unfortunately, dental care at home alone does not prevent the development of caries and periodontitis. Professional dental hygiene is more effective. It covers the following areas:
- Gentle removal of soft, hard and discolored plaque
Inhibition of bacterial metabolism in the plaque - Remineralization of the tooth structure through fluoridation
- Increasing the enamel's resistance to acids by polishing the tooth surfaces with special pastes and polishing cups. Plaque no longer sticks.
- Individual oral hygiene instruction - and motivation
However, it is the reliable cooperation between you and us that leads to healthy, beautiful teeth in the long term!
