A Gentler Way To Keep Your Smile Healthy
When it comes to your dental cleanings, we understand that comfort matters just as much as results—which is why we’re proud to offer precision biofilm removal. This advanced method uses air, water, and fine powder to gently remove harmful bacteria, plaque, and biofilm from your teeth and gums—no scraping required. It’s the future of preventive care, and patients of all ages are loving the difference.
Why Biofilm Removal Matters
Biofilm is a sticky layer of bacteria that forms on your teeth and below the gumline. If it’s not removed, it can lead to cavities and gum disease and even increase your risk of systemic health problems like heart disease and diabetes. Precision biofilm removal targets this buildup more effectively than traditional methods and offers patients a much more comfortable experience.
What Makes This Approach Different?
Rather than relying on scraping with hand tools, precision biofilm removal uses advanced technology to deliver a thorough yet gentle cleaning. These tools work together to remove buildup from teeth, around braces or restorations, and even deep below the gumline when needed.
Benefits of precision biofilm removal include:
- A more comfortable experience without scraping or sensitivity
- Deeper cleaning in hard-to-reach areas
- Personalized care tailored to your unique dental needs
- Protection for restorations like crowns, veneers, and implants
- Support for long-term health by reducing the risk of oral and systemic disease
Whether you’ve had gum issues in the past or are simply looking for a more comfortable alternative to traditional cleanings, precision biofilm removal can be a game-changer.
What to Expect During Your Visit
Every precision biofilm removal cleaning at Millennium Family Dental follows a gentle, step-by-step process. Your visit begins with a quick assessment and a special rinse to reduce bacteria before we get started. Then, we’ll apply a dye that highlights areas of biofilm, so we know exactly where to focus.
From there, your hygienist will use a comfortable stream of air, water, and powder to clean your teeth. If there are deeper pockets around the gums, we may use a special tip to clean more thoroughly in those areas. After your teeth are polished and protected with fluoride, we’ll go over personalized tips to help you control biofilm at home.
