Professional Dental Cleaning: Essential Preventive Care
Even with excellent daily oral hygiene, plaque and tartar can accumulate in hard-to-reach areas. Our prophylaxis assistants at Clinique Dentaire en Dorigny in Chavannes-près-Renens use the latest Swiss dental technology to provide gentle yet thorough professional cleaning, preventing cavities and gum disease.
Why Professional Cleaning is Essential
Even with impeccable brushing technique, certain areas of your mouth remain difficult to access. Our prophylaxis assistants intervene with their expertise and specialized tools to remove deposits that regular brushing cannot eliminate.
What Professional Cleaning Eliminates
🦠 Dental Plaque
This bacterial film forms continuously on teeth. Without professional intervention, it causes gum inflammation within 2 weeks.
🪨 Stubborn Tartar
Once formed, tartar cannot be eliminated by brushing. Only professional scaling can remove it, especially in interdental areas.
☕ Surface Stains
Coffee, tea and certain foods leave traces that only professional cleaning can effectively remove.
Concrete Benefits for Your Health
- Cavity prevention by eliminating bacterial plaque
- Protection against gingivitis and gum disease
- Long-lasting fresh breath
- Long-term savings by preventing costly treatments
- Brighter, cleaner smile
