Prophy­laxis

Healthy teeth into old age

Even with thorough home dental care, not all depo­sits and disco­lo­ra­tions, as well as tartar or plaque, can be removed suffi­ci­ently from the tooth gaps. This can lead to caries or Peri­odon­titis This leads to a decrease in gum tissue and increases the risk of general dise­ases. To prevent this, regular profes­sional dental clea­ning (PZR) by our speci­ally trained dental hygie­nists (DH) and prophy­laxis assistants (ZMP) is essen­tial. A special focus at ZAHNMEDIZIN BOGENHAUSEN ther­e­fore lies on regular prophy­laxis. This includes indi­vi­dual follow-up exami­na­tions for the early detec­tion of dise­ases of the oral cavity, profes­sional dental clea­ning, and guidance on optimal oral care at home.

Our expe­ri­enced team ensures that all hard-to-reach areas in the mouth – such as between-tooth spaces and gum pockets – are thoroughly cleaned. For prophy­laxis, we use Swiss powder-jet tech­no­logy that cleans gently and effec­tively, leaving a fresh feeling in the mouth. In addi­tion to clea­ning, we provide our pati­ents with compre­hen­sive advice on a healthy diet and specific tips for dental and implant care at home. We set the optimal interval for prophy­laxis appoint­ments indi­vi­du­ally in consul­ta­tion with the patient. Private health insu­rance compa­nies usually cover the costs of a PZR. The regu­la­tions for statu­tory health insu­rance plans or supple­men­tary insu­rance plans vary. We are happy to discuss the diffe­rent models and options with you in advance.
