At the EDENT Wrocław dental office, we offer comprehensive oral hygiene, which is the foundation of healthy teeth and a key element in the prevention of dental diseases. Thanks to our modern approach to hygiene, we can detect problems early, prevent diseases and educate patients on how to properly care for their oral health on a daily basis.

The hygienist's role in modern dentistry

The dental hygienist is a key member of our team. She is responsible for professionally cleaning the teeth and educating the patient on proper hygiene. In our practice, the hygienist is not just the dentist’s ‘assistant’ – she has her own dedicated office, where she performs hygiene procedures and teaches patients how to effectively care for their teeth on a daily basis.
Thanks to cooperation with the hygienist, the dentist can focus on more advanced aspects of treatment.

In EDENT Wrocław, hygienization precedes the visit to the dentist. Why is it so important? It is necessary to clean the surface of the teeth beforehand so that the dentist can accurately assess the condition of the teeth.
When an adult patient comes to the dentist, he or she is able to indicate about 70% of the dental problems he or she has. This is why, in a modern dental surgery, the examination of the oral cavity does not begin by pulling out a probe (a small instrument held in the hand, with a curved sharp end, to check how hard the tooth is) from a drawer and looking for a ‘hole in the whole’. , but by assessing the colour of the tooth, especially on the surfaces where the teeth meet.

Modern dentistry begins at the point where there is not yet a cavity in a tooth, or pain

Early damage to a tooth can be recognised by the fact that its colour and translucency change. This cannot be done well if the tooth surface is covered with deposits or calculus. It is necessary to clean the tooth surface beforehand. This is why, in our practice, hygienization procedures precede a visit to the dentist.

Why is oral hygiene crucial?

Regular hygiene visits are the cornerstone of oral health. Here’s why:

  • Prevention: Regular removal of tartar and deposits allows changes to be detected at an early stage.
  • Clean tooth surface: Cleaning teeth of deposits and tartar allows the dentist to better diagnose and patients to avoid more serious problems.
  • Impact on general health: Bacteria developing in the mouth can affect the health of the whole body, so good oral hygiene is fundamental to general health.

Effect of a single hygiene visit

A single hygiene visit can have a huge impact on how a patient takes care of their teeth in the future. Let us assume that, on average, we brush our teeth for 5-6 minutes per day. After 10 days, we will have spent as much time on our teeth as we spend visiting the dentist or hygienist once every 6 months. So how great is the knowledge we gain from such an appointment? Please answer for yourself. As well as cleaning the teeth of deposits, the hygienist passes on information on how to use the brushing time effectively every day. How the development of technology helps us to maintain good hygiene. This is knowledge that we will use for the next 180 days or more.

A good professional oral health team consists of the patient, the doctor and the hygienist. If we are unable to involve the patient in such a team, we will not achieve a lasting treatment effect.

Dental hygiene

Good oral hygiene is decisive for lifelong dental health. The main cause of diseases of the masticatory organ, particularly the gums, is bacteria. The most important activities for oral health are those that the patient performs himself at home every day. Home hygiene involves removing harmful bacteria that cause inflammation of the mouth, leading to tooth decay, periodontal disease and, ultimately, tooth loss. Home hygiene is extremely important and effective provided it is done correctly. Dental hygiene is not limited to teeth. It also includes care of the gums, tongue, prosthetic crowns, bridges, implants, complete and partial dentures.

Adaptive visit for children

Our dental hygienist helps children to form good oral hygiene habits. Adaptation visits are designed not only to familiarise your child with the dental surgery, but also to teach correct brushing techniques, which will help them avoid dental problems in the future. An early understanding of hygiene helps children avoid more serious procedures in the future.
