Dental hygiene as the foundation for preventing tooth decay and periodontitis
Professional dental hygiene in Bratislava is a fundamental preventive procedure in dentistry that helps prevent tooth decay, gum inflammation and periodontitis.
Even with regular brushing at home, it is impossible to remove all dental plaque. Bacteria accumulate in hard-to-reach areas, leading to tartar build-up and inflammation.
Without regular dental hygiene, the following can develop:
- tooth decay
- gum inflammation (gingivitis)
- periodontitis (periodontal disease)
- bleeding gums
- bad breath (halitosis)
Dental hygiene is the most effective way to prevent oral diseases

- Oral examination. Assessment of the condition of teeth and gums
- Tartar removal (ultrasonic scaling). Effective removal of hard deposits
