What are the benefits of UltiClean?

UltiClean is the latest cleaning protocol that effectively removes biofilm. Biofilm forms plaque that hardens to form calculus (tartar), leading to gum disease. Studies indicate that mature biofilms and gum disease may increase your risk of several health complications, including diabetes, stroke, and heart disease. That’s why we recommend the implementation of the UltiClean cleaning process to our patients, to ensure that we don’t miss any invisible signs of early biofilm buildup.

  • Gentle & effective: UltiClean uses advanced technology for a comfortable and effective cleaning experience, including sensitive teeth.
  • Whitening prep: Ideal for pre-whitening, UltiClean creates the perfect foundation for a brighter smile.
  • Early detection: Helps prevent and reverse early gum disease, often with no noticeable symptoms.
  • Essential for overall health: Good oral hygiene is crucial for a healthy smile and overall well-being.

Frequently asked questions

Is air polishing suitable for me?

Air polishing is a gentle and effective dental cleaning option suitable for most people. It is gentle and non-invasive, making it particularly beneficial for those with sensitive teeth, dental implants, and braces.

How long does air polishing treatment take?

A typical air polishing treatment takes around 30 minutes in total. It is a great option for people looking for fast results, a smile boost, or a top-up of their regular hygiene care.

How often should I have air polishing treatment?

You can have an air polishing treatment every 3-6 months, depending on your individual needs. Please talk to us for a personal recommendation.

Can air polishing whiten my teeth?

By removing surface stains caused by substances like coffee, tea, wine, and tobacco, air polishing can significantly brighten your smile. While it is not a whitening treatment, and won’t change the natural colour of your teeth, it can make them look noticeably whiter and brighter.
