There are many kinds of tooth cleaning.
Manual tooth cleaning
It means that doctors use manual physical strength and dental cleaning instruments to clean teeth. This is the most primitive method of tooth cleaning, with low efficiency and cleaning effect 1.
Although it sounds that this method of tooth washing is backward in productivity and low in cost performance for dentists and dentists, it has not been eliminated because it is more suitable for washing children's teeth.
Ultrasonic tooth cleaning
Ultrasonic scaling refers to the use of ultrasonic scaling equipment to remove plaque and tartar from gums, thus delaying the deposition of plaque.
Through the high-frequency oscillation of ultrasonic, the damage to the tooth surface is very small, the cleaning time is also very short, the operation is convenient, the effect is obvious, no anesthetic is needed, no side effects are caused, and oral health is not damaged.
At present, the most common routine tooth cleaning refers to ultrasonic basic tooth cleaning. For people who have no special needs such as periodontitis or whitening, ultrasonic basic tooth cleaning 1-2 times a year can effectively prevent dental calculus and periodontitis.
Blast cleaning
Sand blasting cleaning is an additional step on the basis of ordinary cleaning, and teeth are further cleaned by special salt sand and high-pressure water.
The effect of removing pigment by sandblasting is more obvious, and it is more suitable for patients who often like smoking, drinking tea, drinking alcohol and drinking coffee. This leads to soft dirt or slight coloring on their teeth. Patients with less pigmentation on their teeth may not need sandblasting, but only need ultrasonic cleaning.
Health care tooth cleaning
In addition to the above cleaning, sometimes cleaning may be accompanied by some other dental care or treatment.
For example, periodontal cleaning, drug therapy, tooth fluoride coating, pit and fissure sealing, tooth whitening, periodontal health care and even tooth implantation. All these situations need to cooperate with the operation of tooth cleaning, and to a certain extent, there is a concept of health and cleanliness.
Painless tooth cleaning
Painless tooth cleaning means that there is an analgesic instrument in the process of tooth cleaning, which can be adjusted to alleviate the pain of patients in tooth cleaning.
Use a special tooth cleaning head. Its principle is that when the cleaning tip works, the cleaning tip is equivalent to an electrode with micro-electricity. Through the excessive polarization of fine nerve fibers, the electrical signals are stimulated to play an analgesic role. Therefore, in the process of tooth washing, there will be no toothache and less bleeding. This is suitable for dental patients with dentin hypersensitivity and easy bleeding.
