But even if a person gives enough time to care for his teeth, he can not defeat the raid on his own. It is enough to look at how the plaque develops:

Combining these three factors form a single stream, each component of which has a specific action:

air ensures the delivery of soda to the problem site;
soda , bumping against plaque under pressure, contributes to its detachment from the enamel;
water washes away the fallen pieces and reduces the temperature, which during the procedure is always increased due to friction of soda against the plaque.

The procedure allows you to remove dental deposits of any degree of neglect and provides opportunities for an individual approach to each patient. Adjusting the strength of the jet, the doctor is guided by:

the thickness of the tooth enamel , which soda, fed too much, can damage;
tooth sensitivity , if not to take into account which, the patient can be very hurt;
thickness of plaque or stone - the thicker, the stronger the pressure will be required.

Professional cleaning of teeth

Cleaning soft coating .To do this, use a special small electric brush, which is smeared with professional toothpaste. With its help, scrape off the entire plaque, which can still be removed by mechanical impact.
Cleaning of hard plaque .To do this, use one of the three methods described above( there is another fourth, in which solid deposits are manually cleaned by a doctor, but now this procedure is not in progress because of its painfulness and laboriousness).
Strips .The tool is a thin metal tape with a rough surface, the thickness of which allows it to be inserted into the gap between the teeth and cleaned of plaque and sides.
Polishing .After all cleaning, the teeth remain rough, and if you skip polishing, the plaque on them will be formed in even larger volumes than before. For it, small rollers are used, which provide an ideal smoothness for the enamel.
Treatment with fluorinated varnish .This part of the procedure strengthens the tooth enamel, enriches it with fluoride and prevents the formation of plaque in the future.

Opinion of patients of dental clinics

Unclear nuances can be clarified by studying the opinions of people who have been professionally cleaned teeth.

Always afraid of dentists almost to the point of hysterics. In childhood, no persuasion, my mother could not get me to see a doctor. Recently I read on the Internet that laser professional cleaning firstly, allows you to protect your teeth from diseases, and secondly, painless, and thirdly, it is silent. Decided to try.

It turned out - really, not scary. No unpleasant sensations, teeth and the truth seem whiter, and I do not remember the way to dentists for a year, because nothing hurts since I started to go for cleaning.
I advise everyone!

I'm a smoker. Every morning begins with coffee, and then during the day I drink a few more cups. It is clear, in what condition I have always had teeth with this way of life. Recently my friends advised me to go to the cleaning. Lured by what is inexpensive, and useful, and teeth then, as in advertising. I had nothing to lose, so I signed up.

When I looked in the mirror later, it was stunned. I was always shy to smile because of my teeth. And now they look so, that though never completely shut your mouth. An amazing procedure, besides very simple - all you need to do is sit with your mouth open.
