Assess: Create a personalized treatment plan.

Disclose: A disclosing solution is applied to the teeth, staining bacterial biofilm making it a visible guide for the hygienist and patient to see where the plaque is accumulating.
​
Airflow®: Using a combination of warm water, air, and erythritol powder to safely remove biofilm, bacteria, stain and plaque from hard and soft surfaces in the mouth.
​
Piezon®: Next, we use an ultrasonic instrument with warm water to remove hard deposits from above and below the gum line.
​
Refining: In some cases, traditional dental instruments may be used to remove any remaining hard deposits.
