The sixty minutes that prevent everything else
Dental Hygiene
Every treatment on this site becomes less likely if you do this one twice a year. Professional hygiene removes what no toothbrush reaches — calculus below the gumline, biofilm between teeth — using ultrasonic scaling and airflow polishing that leaves enamel glass-smooth. It is also when small problems get caught while they are still cheap.

Common questions
No — ultrasonic scaling and airflow remove deposits, not tooth structure. What damages enamel is the acid produced by the plaque we are removing.
