At Signature Dental Care, we're committed to providing our patients with the most advanced and minimally invasive dental treatments available. Our air abrasion technology is a revolutionary tool that allows us to prepare teeth for restorations with unparalleled precision and gentleness.
What is Air Abrasion?
Air abrasion is a non-invasive, gentle technique used to remove tooth decay, smooth out surfaces, and prepare teeth for fillings or other restorative procedures. This innovative technology uses a fine stream of air and abrasive particles to gently remove unwanted material from the tooth surface.
Benefits of Air Abrasion
- Minimally Invasive: Air abrasion is a gentle and non-invasive procedure that minimizes discomfort and reduces the risk of complications.
- Precise Control: Our advanced technology allows for precise control over the air stream, ensuring accurate removal of decayed material without damaging surrounding tooth structure.
- Reduced Anesthesia: In most cases, air abrasion can be performed without anesthesia, reducing the need for numbing agents and minimizing discomfort.
- Improved Outcomes: Air abrasion enables us to remove decayed material more effectively, resulting in stronger, healthier teeth.
How Does Air Abrasion Work?
Our air abrasion process involves the following steps:
- Preparation: Our dentists will prepare you for the procedure by cleaning and drying your teeth.
- Air Stream Application: We'll apply a fine stream of air and abrasive particles to the affected tooth surface, gently removing decayed material.
- Removal of Decay: The air stream and abrasive particles work together to remove decayed material, revealing healthy tooth structure beneath.
- Finishing Touches: Our dentists will finish the procedure by polishing the tooth surface to a smooth, natural appearance.
Indications for Air Abrasion
Air abrasion is particularly useful for:
- Tooth Decay Removal: Gentle removal of decayed material without damaging surrounding tooth structure.
- Smoothing Tooth Surfaces: Precise smoothing of tooth surfaces to prepare them for fillings or other restorative procedures.
- Preparation for Crowns and Bridges: Air abrasion helps us prepare teeth for crowns, bridges, and other dental prosthetics.
