At McMillan Family Dental, we’re committed to providing our patients with the most advanced dental care available. That’s why we’re excited to introduce Precision Biofilm Removal—a revolutionary new approach to dental cleanings. Not only is Precision Biofilm Removal more effective at removing harmful bacteria (biofilm), but it also provides a more comfortable experience for patients.
What is Precision Biofilm Removal?
Traditional cleanings often involve scraping to remove plaque and tartar, which can be uncomfortable for many patients. With Precision Biofilm Removal, we take a different approach. Precision Biofilm Removal uses advanced air polishing technology, which combines air, water, and fine powder to gently but thoroughly remove harmful bacteria (biofilm) and plaque from your teeth. This technique is not only more comfortable but also more effective at targeting areas that traditional tools might miss.
Key Benefits of Precision Biofilm Removal
Precision Biofilm Removal provides many benefits over traditional dental cleanings:
- Gentle and Comfortable: Say goodbye to scraping. Precision Biofilm Removal’s air polishing technique minimizes discomfort and sensitivity while reducing the time spent in the chair.
- More Effective: Precision Biofilm Removal targets biofilm—harmful bacteria that can lead to gum disease and cavities—offering a deeper, more thorough clean.
- Healthier Results: Precision Biofilm Removal helps prevent gum disease, cavities, and other oral health issues, keeping your smile healthy and bright.
How Does Precision Biofilm Removal Work?
The Precision Biofilm Removal process begins with a special dye that highlights areas of biofilm on your teeth, allowing our team to focus on the spots that need the most attention. We then use the Vakker Woodpecker air polisher to gently remove biofilm and plaque, even in hard-to-reach areas.
This approach ensures a deep clean for your teeth and gums, with less discomfort than traditional methods.
Spotting Gum Disease Early with the Leica Microscope
At McMillan Family Dental, we believe advanced technology leads to better care. That’s why we’ve invested in the Leica microscope, a tool rarely found in dental offices. This state-of-the-art technology allows us to detect gum disease early, treat it with precision, and protect both your oral and overall health.
How This Benefits You:
- Catch gum disease early to prevent bone and tissue loss, making treatments easier and more effective.
- Protect healthy tissue with precise, targeted care that avoids unnecessary procedures.
- Enjoy faster treatments with better results and fewer visits.
- Reduce your risk of health issues like heart disease, diabetes, and Alzheimer’s by addressing gum disease sooner.
By integrating tools like the Leica microscope into our practice, we’re delivering the high-quality care you deserve.
