Dental hygiene for a radiant smile

Healthy teeth and a beautiful smile contribute significantly to our well-being. Our dental hygienists and prophylaxis assistants support you with professional cleanings and personalised care tips. Thorough teeth cleaning removes tartar and discolouration both above and below the gums.

Our reminder system ensures that you don't forget any appointments. We will inform you in good time by post, telephone, e-mail or text message about your next cleaning intervals, which take place quarterly, every six months or annually as required.

The importance of proper oral hygiene

Thorough oral hygiene is not only important for teeth and gums, but also influences the health of the entire body. The oral cavity is a gateway for numerous germs that can also affect other organs.

Good oral hygiene can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, diabetes and premature births.

Nutrition and dental health

Our daily diet often contains sugar and acids that can attack tooth enamel. Regular and thorough tooth brushing and the use of enamel-strengthening products are therefore important.

Foods such as vegetables, rice, cereals, meat, fish, eggs, cheese, quark and natural yoghurt are gentle on the teeth and rich in vitamins and minerals that promote dental health.

Regular checks

Regular dental hygiene treatments and dental check-ups are essential for dental health. An annual dental examination, including small x-rays, carried out at least every two years, helps to detect tooth decay at an early stage.

Tooth-preserving measures for diseases

Our primary goal is to preserve your teeth, even if they are diseased.

Caries treatment: Caries is removed and the tooth is filled with a tooth-coloured composite material.

Root canal treatment: Inflamed or dead tissue is removed, the tooth is cleaned and filled with a special material.

Periodontitis treatment: If diagnosed early, measures can be taken to treat gum inflammation and preserve the teeth.

Emergency

We are available for you 51 weeks a year. Directly by telephone during our opening hours.
