Frequently Asked Questions
What is Airflow Hygiene? Airflow is an advanced cleaning system that uses a gentle yet powerful stream of air, warm water, and fine powder to clean your teeth. It is the gold standard for removing stubborn stains from coffee, tea, and tobacco, reaching into areas that traditional scaling simply cannot. For our patients in Haywards Heath, it offers a "sparkle clean" that leaves teeth feeling incredibly smooth.
Is it suitable for sensitive teeth? Absolutely. Traditional hygiene treatments can sometimes be uncomfortable for those with sensitivity. Airflow is a "no-contact" technology that uses warm water, making it a pain-free experience. It is the perfect choice for anyone who usually finds hygiene appointments a challenge.
Why is professional hygiene essential for dental implants? If you have dental implants, professional maintenance is the key to their longevity. Airflow is the safest and most effective way to clean around implants. It removes harmful bacteria without scratching the titanium surfaces, helping to prevent gum infections and ensuring your implants stay secure.
Will Airflow affect my composite bonding or veneers? Not at all. In fact, it is the best way to maintain them. Airflow effectively removes surface stains from composite bonding and porcelain veneers without the abrasive scraping of traditional tools, helping your cosmetic work stay looking new for longer.
How often should I book an appointment? For most of our Sussex patients, we recommend a visit every 6 months. However, if you are prone to gum disease or have a complex smile makeover, we may suggest more frequent "sparkle cleans" to maintain your oral health.
