1) PROFESSIONAL TOOTH CLEANING:
We recommend our patients to have the professional tooth cleaning done once or twice a year. It is carried out by specially trained practice staff. The professional tooth cleaning includes the removal of bacterial Bio-Film, plaque and dneal calculus, polishing, fluoridization and advice on daily oral hygiene. The professional tooth cleaning not only ensures a shining smile. It is also an elementary component of a prevention-oriented general concept for to prevent and treat oral diseases.
2) HIGH-END PROSTHODONTICS:
In order to optimize the durability of high-end prosthodontics (including inlays, partial crowns, full crowns and bridges), we use isolation with rubber dams. Only with a rubber dam can the so-called "absolute isolation" be achieved, which is essential for the special bonding technique (adhesive technique) between the tooth substance and the restorative material.
3) DENTAL SPLINT THERAPY:
Splint therapy is used in management of masticatory function disorders including bruxism and grinding, the so called Temperomandibular dysfunctions (TMD). The splint therapy primarily helps neuromuscular relaxation of the masticatory system. We consider splint therapy to be an elementary component of an overall concept for TMD management. The overall concept also includes physiotherapy and self-done exercises of the jaw muscles.
4) PARODONTITIS TREATMENT:
Periodontitis is a bacterial infection that can lead to periodontal attachment loss and systemic diseases. The degree of inflammation in patients with periodontitis can vary regardless of the degree of bacterial infection. Functional changes in the immune system are a substantial cause of theses infections. In addition, smoking and diabetes mellitus are believed to be potential risk factors. The aim of anti-infectious therapy of periodontitis is to remove the supra- and subgingival biofilm from the tooth and root surfaces in order to stop periodontal destruction and gain clinical attachment. Depending on the stage and degree of periodontitis, we recommend using ultrasound, sub-gingival guided-biofilm therapy and photodynamic laser therapy.
