What is Air Abrasion Tooth Polishing?
Air abrasion tooth polishing, or dental air polishing, is a modern air flow tooth cleaning method that uses a controlled jet of air, water, and a fine abrasive powder, typically sodium bicarbonate or glycine, to gently remove plaque, biofilm, and surface stains from your teeth. This technique targets stains caused by coffee, tea, red wine, smoking, and more.
Unlike traditional scaling, air polishing provides a deeper clean by reaching areas that are difficult to access with regular brushing or conventional methods. It’s an effective way to enhance your oral health and brighten your smile.

Frequently Asked Questions
01How does air abrasion tooth polishing differ from traditional scaling?
Dental air polishing uses a gentle spray of air, water, and powder for stain removal, dental cleaning and plaque, while traditional scaling relies on manual scraping of tartar with instruments. Air polishing is faster, less abrasive, and can reach areas that are hard to clean with traditional methods.
02Is air polishing safe for all patients?
Yes, air polishing dentistry is safe for most patients, including those with braces or implants. However, for individuals with certain respiratory conditions, we conduct a proper examination before undergoing the procedure to ensure it’s the right choice for them.
03How often should I get air polishing done?
Typically, air polishing dentistry is recommended every 6 months during your routine dental check-ups. However, we may suggest a different schedule based on your unique needs and oral health condition.
