The procedure of professional oral hygiene is a medical procedure that requires medical knowledge and skills. If the procedure is not performed by a doctor and is not performed in a clinic, you may get serious dental problems and complications, the consequences of which are very often unpredictable.

Carefully follow the following recommendations and protocols prescribed to you by your attending physician. Neither you nor anyone else can change the course of the procedure at will. Otherwise, the doctor and the clinic cannot bear any responsibility for the arbitrary violation of the prescriptions.

 

1. Do not eat for the first 2-3 hours after cleaning - this time is needed to restore the protective film on the tooth surface.

2. On the day of professional teeth cleaning - replace the old toothbrush with a new one. If your gums are healthy - the toothbrush should be of medium hardness. If the gums are at the stage of healing - in the first days use a soft toothbrush, after 7-10 days you can already use a medium-hard toothbrush. In the future, change the brush once every three months.

3. Follow the home cleaning algorithm. First, brush your teeth with a toothbrush and toothpaste, and clean your tongue with a brush or tongue scraper. Then, you need to clean all the interdental spaces. Depending on the indications that your doctor will familiarize you with, this may be floss, irrigator (rinse) and/or interdental brushes.

4. Complete the procedure by rinsing with a gum rinse. If the doctor has prescribed additional care products, apply these products according to the specified scheme.

5. It is advisable not to consume products that increase tooth sensitivity for two days after cleaning: carbonated drinks, juices, fruits, as well as coloring products: coffee, tea, cola, berries (blueberries, blackberries), chocolate, beets, red wine, ketchup, tomatoes, etc.

6. Every six months, professional cleaning is the key to healthy gums and teeth. Your doctor will give you exact recommendations and a prescription after a consultation.

7. Include solid foods in your diet whenever possible (apples, cabbage, carrots).
