Hygiene Services

Keep your smile healthy and bright

Why are Hygiene Visits Important?

At Lake Road Dental we believe that prevention is better than cure and gum health is so important yet often overlooked.

Our team of gentle and caring hygienists help patients to take care of their smile by offering tailored oral health advice and professional cleaning.

We offer a range of hygiene services to keep your teeth sparking and gums healthy, including EMS Airflow.

Regular hygiene visits have not only been shown to reduce the need and cost of general dental treatments but good oral hygiene has a positive impact on general health too.

Introducing EMS Airflow

We are excited to announce we now offer EMS Airflow.

EMS Airflow is a next-generation cleaning technique that combines air, warm water, and a fine powder to dislodge plaque and surface stains.

Airflow works by directing a controlled jet to clean even the most difficult-to-reach spots — all without touching the teeth directly.

This advanced system is a core part of Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT), a preventative treatment method focused on removing biofilm (plaque) gently and precisely to help maintain strong gums and prevent decay.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF AIRFLOW?

It is comfortable and Non-Invasive

EMS Airflow uses a warm, fine mist to remove plaque and staining without direct contact with the tooth. It is ideal for patients with sensitivity, making it a comfortable experience.

Effective Plaque and Stain removal

EMS Airflow is incredible at stain removal, especially discolouration caused by food and drink or tobacco. Airflow effectively lifts stubborn stains, leaving your teeth noticeably cleaner and brighter, eliminating the need for traditional polishing.

Gentle on Braces, Implants, and Crowns

Airflow is beneficial to patients with orthodontic appliances or restorative work. The treatment gently cleans thoroughly without causing damage to delicate surfaces.

Preventing gum Disease and other health Issues

By targeting and thoroughly removing bacteria below the gum line, EMS Airflow helps prevent conditions like gum disease and tooth decay and reducing the risk of associated health problems.

Ideal for Children

Airflow treatment is also safe and effective to use on milk teeth. It is comfortable, noise free and has a pleasant taste.
