Airflow Tooth Polishing
Airflow polishing is a revolutionary dental technique that uses a mixture of air, water, and specially formulated powders to effectively remove stubborn stains caused by curries, red wine, tea, coffee, and smoking. It transforms the way we think about oral care, offering a brighter, healthier smile with minimal discomfort.
After plaque or tartar is removed by scaling, a pressurised air jet with special polishing powder is used in a controlled stream to remove stains from teeth, including deep fissures. Before treatment, your teeth are assessed for tartar deposits; if present, scaling is performed first to ensure the best possible results.

Biofilm is a complex community of microorganisms (plaque) that forms on teeth. Removing it is critical because:
- It prevents tooth decay by stopping acid production.
- It reduces the risk of gum disease and inflammation.
- It freshens breath by removing bacteria.
- It prevents the formation of hard calculus (tartar).
- It may reduce risks of systemic health issues like heart disease.
