Enjoy your new sparkling stain-free smile!
Airflow® treatment is a very simple and successful way to professionally clean, polish and remove surface staining from your teeth. It uses a spray jet of compressed air, water and bicarbonate to target stains caused by tea, coffee, red wine, smoking and other dark coloured foods and drinks and gently remove them. The Airflow® system enables even hard to reach areas to be accessed and treated for an overall healthier and brighter smile.
It is often used prior to teeth whitening treatment to remove all surface stains before the whitening lightens the tooth colour. Together, these treatments give the best improvement in tooth colour and shade.
Initially, we examine your teeth and assess the starting level of staining. We may take photographs so we can compare with your results.
The Airflow® procedure takes around 30 minutes in total, and is completely pain free, with no anaesthetic required at all. We clean your teeth with the focused jet of air, water and bicarbonate and polish them so they sparkle beautifully.
After just one short visit, you will not be able to help smiling as you show off your stunningly brighter, healthier teeth. Your results are immediately visible.
The longevity of your results depends a lot on your diet and lifestyle, as if you enjoy a lot of tea, coffee, other dark drinks or foods, or are a smoker, your staining will likely return more quickly. Many patients choose to repeat the treatment regularly to maintain their brighter smile.
No but is often used in conjunction with teeth whitening, which is able to whiten beyond surface stains. If your teeth are very stained or discoloured, whitening may be needed in addition to the Airflow® treatment.
Airflow® treatment is completely pain-free, and many patients find it is much more comfortable than conventional hygiene treatment. We don’t need to use any local anaesthetic and the treatment needs no downtime afterwards whatsoever.
