The air polishing technique has been in development for several years and now seems to be establishing itself as one of the fastest and most effective dental cleaning methods.

One of its most notable benefits is the ability to perform a painless cleaning that does not damage the enamel, enhancing patient comfort and tolerance during treatment.

How does air polishing work?

Air polishing consists of a high-pressure mixture of water and powder, applied through a lightweight, precision handpiece. One of the key advantages of this procedure is its ability to reach difficult areas while also allowing for pain-free treatment of sensitive areas.

Advantages of the Woodpecker Air Polisher

The air polishing system is operated through a touch interface, which is liquid and splash-resistant and can detect touch even when wearing gloves or using a protective film.

It allows for precise adjustment of water flow and power levels. The multifunctional pedal frees up the operator’s hands and enables the "boost" mode for temporary power increases, as well as dry cleaning mode.

Ultrasonic Cleaning Tool

The ultrasonic handpiece complements the air polisher, combining both tools in a single device to enable precise supragingival and subgingival cleaning.

The ultrasonic tip moves in an elliptical motion, which helps disperse the force of impact. It also allows for zero-degree angulation against the tooth surface, making the procedure more effective and comfortable.

A wide range of precision tips can be used, made from titanium alloy with a hardness lower than enamel and cementum, ensuring no damage to dental surfaces.

At Sanhigía, as experts in cutting-edge equipment in the world of Dental Health, we stand by the bicarbonate air polisher dental cleaner. This innovative tool in modern dentistry has revolutionized dental cleaning techniques. By using a combination of pressurized air and water, it effectively removes stains, oral biofilm, and bacterial plaque from tooth surfaces.

Additionally, the baking soda added to the water mixture helps eliminate surface stains and enhances the aesthetic appearance of teeth. Thanks to its ability to reach difficult areas and efficiently remove stains, the bicarbonate air polisher has become a valuable tool for dental professionals, providing patients with a more thorough cleaning and visible improvements in their smiles.

Air polishing is highly effective in removing extrinsic stains, such as those caused by coffee, tea, tobacco, or other pigmented foods and beverages. It is also effective in eliminating biofilm and bacterial plaque deposits that accumulate on the teeth.

Unlike other dental cleaning procedures, such as scaling and root planing, air polishing is a non-invasive technique that does not require direct contact with the teeth. It uses abrasive particles and a stream of air or water to remove deposits, making it less uncomfortable for the patient and ensuring no damage to the tooth surface.

Since air polishing does not involve direct contact with the teeth, it reduces the risk of post-procedure sensitivity, which is often experienced with more aggressive cleaning methods.

Air polishing is a fast and comfortable procedure for patients. It does not require anesthesia and is usually completed in a single visit, making it a convenient option for those with busy schedules.

The air or water jet used in air polishing can reach difficult areas, such as grooves and fissures on tooth surfaces. This allows for a more thorough cleaning and helps prevent periodontal diseases and cavities.
