Professional oral hygiene is a quick, effective, and painless preventive procedure that helps maintain healthy teeth and a beautiful smile. It protects against tooth decay and periodontitis. Regular hygiene sessions — recommended every six months — help prevent various oral diseases and allow early detection of potential problems. Timely treatment makes dental care easier, saving both your health and your finances.
At Lyso – Dentapolis clinic, oral hygiene is performed using the advanced Air-Flow technology.
This innovative method combines air, water, and fine soda powder to gently and thoroughly remove plaque and stains. The procedure is completely painless, leaving your mouth feeling exceptionally clean and refreshed.
Professional oral hygiene is the most reliable way to prevent tooth and gum diseases.
Plaque and the bacteria within it are the main causes of cavities and periodontitis — this procedure removes even the deposits that are difficult to reach with regular brushing.
Regular hygiene allows early detection of dental problems.
During the procedure, the hygienist examines your teeth, evaluates their condition, and recommends treatment if necessary.
If plaque remains for too long, it hardens into tartar, which irritates the gums, looks unattractive, and may eventually lead to tooth loss.
Routine hygiene helps prevent these complications.
For patients with sensitive teeth or more severe oral conditions, the procedure can be performed with anesthesia to ensure full comfort.
After the session, the hygienist provides recommendations on how to properly care for your teeth at home.
A professional oral hygiene procedure usually takes 30–60 minutes, depending on the condition of the patient’s mouth.
It consists of several consecutive stages:
The hygienist examines the teeth and gums, determines the amount of plaque, and, if necessary, provides recommendations for further treatment.
Using an ultrasonic scaler, hand instruments, and the Air-Flow method, both hard and soft deposits are thoroughly removed from tooth surfaces and periodontal pockets.
Tooth surfaces are polished with special brushes, discs, and polishing paste to make them smooth and less prone to plaque buildup.
At the end of the procedure, the hygienist offers advice on products and daily-care methods to help maintain long-lasting results.
Professional oral hygiene is not only a preventive procedure — it’s an investment in your long-term oral health.
The price depends on the chosen treatment type and individual situation.
Professional oral hygiene is usually recommended every 6 months.
However, depending on the rate of tartar buildup and your individual oral health, your hygienist may suggest a different frequency.
Yes. Even with regular brushing, plaque and tartar can build up in hard-to-reach areas that only a professional cleaning can remove.
No, the procedure is painless. You may feel slight vibration or pressure, but no discomfort. For sensitive patients, local anesthesia can be used.
Absolutely. Regular hygiene helps prevent cavities and teaches children proper oral care habits from an early age.
Usually between 30 and 60 minutes, depending on the amount of plaque and the overall condition of your teeth and gums.
It’s recommended to avoid eating and drinking (especially coffee, tea, or wine) for at least 1–2 hours after the procedure to maintain the best results
Tartar develops when soft plaque hardens due to minerals in saliva. Brushing alone can’t remove hardened deposits — that’s why professional cleaning is important.
If you notice bleeding gums, bad breath, sensitivity, or visible tartar buildup — schedule a hygiene visit as soon as possible.
Our goal is to provide friendly and caring dental care, offering general, aesthetic, and specialized services of the highest quality.
