How can we help?
Air Polishing
Air polishing is a gentle, modern approach to professional teeth cleaning offered at Holistic Studio Dental Hygiene. It uses a controlled stream of air, water, and fine powder to remove plaque, surface stains, and debris without the pressure or abrasion of traditional methods. This technique leaves your teeth feeling smooth, refreshed, and naturally bright while prioritizing comfort and enamel protection.
What Is Air Polishing?
Air polishing cleans and brightens teeth using a fine powder, commonly sodium bicarbonate or glycine, combined with air and water. It effectively lifts stains caused by coffee, tea, wine, and tobacco while also reducing biofilm, a soft layer of bacteria that contributes to gum disease and decay. Because it is minimally abrasive, it is safe for sensitive teeth, restorations, braces, veneers, crowns, and dental implants.
Air Polishing vs Traditional Polishing
Traditional polishing typically uses a rubber cup and polishing paste to smooth the teeth after a cleaning. While effective, it can feel abrasive for some patients. Air polishing achieves similar or improved results with significantly less friction, making it a preferred option for those who experience sensitivity or discomfort with conventional polishing techniques.
