What is airflow teeth cleaning?

Airflow is a modern method of professional teeth cleaning. A fine jet of water, air and a fine powder removes deposits, discolouration and bacteria — gently and without scraping instruments. We work with the latest EMS Airflow® One technology.

The benefits

  • Gentle — no scratching or scraping on the tooth
  • Thorough — also in the interdental spaces and at the gum line
  • Removes stubborn discolouration (coffee, tea, nicotine)
  • Pleasant and low in pain — even with sensitive teeth
  • Also suitable with implants, braces and aligners
A smooth, clean feeling

After the cleaning the teeth feel noticeably smooth — and new deposits adhere less to smooth surfaces. So the result stays nice for longer.

Who is airflow suitable for?

Basically for everyone — especially with visible discolouration, with implants or during an aligner or braces treatment, where cleaning is particularly demanding.

Procedure & cost

Airflow is part of our professional teeth cleaning (from CHF 190). How a session works exactly is explained in the article professional teeth cleaning — or arrange an appointment at Löwenplatz in Zurich.
