Professional Air Polishing in Bristol

Air Polishing in Bristol

We are proud to offer premium Air Polish in Bristol, an advanced hygiene treatment designed to gently and effectively remove surface stains.
At Lodge Causeway Dental Centre (LCDC), we understand that a bright smile plays an important role in confidence and oral health. Over time, teeth can develop surface staining from coffee, tea, red wine, smoking, and everyday dietary habits. While regular brushing and professional scaling are essential for maintaining healthy teeth and gums, they may not fully remove external staining.
Air Polishing uses a controlled stream of air, water, and fine powder to safely lift surface stains from the teeth, including hard-to-reach areas between teeth. It is a gentle and comfortable way to enhance the appearance of your smile and is typically used alongside a professional scale and polish as part of your hygiene appointment.

How Does the Airflow System Work?

How Does the Airflow System Work?
Air Polishing (often referred to as Airflow) is an advanced stain-removal technique designed to gently lift surface discolouration from the teeth.
The system works by directing a controlled stream of air and water through a specialised nozzle onto the tooth surface.

When you sit in the chair for an air polish treatment, the process typically involves:

Preparation: Your dentist or hygienist will ensure you are comfortable and protected during the procedure.
Application: The nozzle is carefully directed over the teeth, removing surface stains and soft biofilm from areas that are often difficult to clean thoroughly with regular brushing.
Result: Teeth appear brighter and feel freshly cleaned, with visible surface staining reduced.

Air Polish vs Scale and Polish

Scale and Polish:

This focuses on removing hard tartar (calculus). The dentist uses ultrasonic vibration or hand scalers to scrape off hard deposits. It is a health necessity but does not always remove fine stains, and the “polish” phase uses a gritty paste and a rubber cup.

Air Polishing:

This is a mechanical cleaning method. It removes extrinsic stains (stains on the outside of the tooth). It cleans the teeth to their natural brightness. If your teeth are naturally yellow, air polishing will remove the stains, but it won’t change their genetic color

FAQs About Air Polish in Bristol

Is the Airflow treatment painful?

No, it is widely considered pain-free. At Lodge Causeway Dental Centre, we use warm water technology to prevent the sensitivity often associated with cold scaling. Patients visiting us for Airpolish in Bristol describe the sensation as a gentle spray or “dental spa.”

Can I get Airflow treatment on the NHS at LCDC?

Airflow in Lodge Causeway is classified as a private service. While the NHS covers clinically necessary cleaning, Airflow is an advanced cosmetic procedure designed for superior air polish stain removal, which falls outside NHS bands. We strive to keep our airpolish prices competitive, ensuring this premium hygiene therapy is accessible to all our patients in Bristol.

How often should I visit the hygienist for Airpolish in Bristol?

The frequency varies significantly for every patient depending on lifestyle, food, and drink habits. Because Airflow in Lodge Causeway is gentle and causes no tooth sensitivity, it is safe to have treatment as often as every month or spaced out over years. Our airpolish hygienist at Lodge Causeway Dental Centre will tailor a schedule to keep your smile fresh in Fishponds.

Is this treatment suitable for patients with sensitive teeth?

Yes, it is excellent for sensitivity. Unlike traditional ultrasonic tools that contact the tooth directly, airflow bristol treatments use a soft mixture of air, warm water, and fine powder. This non-contact approach cleans without the “zing” of cold water, making it the preferred choice for patients at Lodge Causeway Dental Centre with sensitive gums or dentine.

Will the airpolish hygienist be able to remove my smoking or coffee stains?

Absolutely. Many patients search for an air polish dentist bristol specifically to tackle tough lifestyle stains from tobacco, tea, or red wine. The jet spray effectively lifts these surface discolorations. While it is not chemical bleaching, the air polish stain removal at Lodge Causeway Dental Centre instantly reveals your natural enamel brightness for a noticeably cleaner smile.
