AIR-FLOW® Therapy is a type of air polishing treatment that removes harmful biofilm from above and below the gumline to improve your oral health and help you achieve a more beautiful smile. This air polishing technique uses a mixture of water, compressed air and fine glycine powder particles to thoroughly clean your teeth. By using glycine particles instead of traditional air polishing powders, our dentists can provide you with a treatment that is both more powerful and more comfortable than regular air polishing.

Our dentists may recommend AIR-FLOW therapy to clean your teeth prior to cavity detection, fluoride application or teeth whitening treatments. AIR-FLOW therapy is also helpful in:

• Maintaining implants
• Cleaning teeth before dental bonding, sealants, and placing restorations or braces
• Gently and effectively cleaning restorations (such as crowns and veneers)
• Effectively cleaning the teeth of patients who wear braces
• Removing stains on the teeth

Some benefits of receiving AIR-FLOW therapy include:

• A faster and more efficient treatment
• Superior results and cleaner teeth and gums
• Increased comfort
• Reduced tooth sensitivity

We invite you to call our office today to learn more about the benefits of AIR-FLOW therapy and to schedule your appointment with our experienced dentists. We are excited to help you care for your smile!
