At the Smile More Dental Clinics, we recommend visiting our hygienist every 6 months to remove plaque buildup and reinforce good cleaning habits. For patients wearing braces, we advise them to schedule their hygiene appointments more frequently to keep their teeth in great health during their treatment.
Your dentist will add a tooth-colored resin to your teeth to enhance their appearance. This material is carefully contoured into the desired shape, hardened, and polished.
Air Flow Therapy
Air flow is an effective prophylactic therapy using a machine that cleans and polishes teeth using a mix of water, fine powder particles and compressed air. With air flow, our hygienist is able to easily and efficiently remove plaque and stain even on the most hard-to-reach and delicate areas. Unlike traditional cleaning methods, air flow is less abrasive, and it provides a more comfortable experience for patients.
