Why is dental hygiene so important?

Taking care of your teeth is a fundamental component of your general well-being. But why exactly is thorough dental hygiene and healthy teeth so important?

Prevention of tooth and gum disease

You can effectively prevent tooth decay and periodontitis through regular and correct brushing of the tooth surfaces, professional dental hygiene, the use of dental floss and other aids. These diseases often start unnoticed and can progress quickly without proper oral hygiene. Periodontitis, another stage of gingivitis, affects the gums and can lead to tooth loss if left untreated. Regular removal of plaque and bacteria is therefore crucial to minimise the risk of gingivitis and gum line recession.

Protecting your general health

The health of your mouth is often a reflection of your overall health. Numerous studies have shown that poor oral hygiene can be associated with various systemic diseases, including cardiovascular disease. This is because bacteria from infected gum pockets and inflamed tooth necks can travel through the bloodstream to other parts of the body.

Discover the ALPINE WHITE Studios: your destination for excellent dental hygiene

Modern dentistry requires not only professional expertise and innovative technologies, but also a comprehensive understanding of how regular care and preventative measures can improve the health of each individual. ALPINE WHITE Studios are at the forefront of this movement, offering a combination of expertise and advanced dental hygiene tailored to the individual needs of each client.

Comprehensive services

At our Studios, we offer a wide range of services from basic care to specialised treatments. One focus of our work is regular professional teeth cleaning. This is carried out by experienced dental hygienists using the latest technology, including AIRFLOW, a powder jet device that effectively removes plaque and discolouration. This procedure is particularly important to deeply clean the tooth surfaces and keep oral health at an optimal level.

Caries Repair

Another integral part of our services is Caries Repair, which is best suited to strengthen tooth enamel and protect against tooth decay. The regular use of fluoride plays a crucial role in preventive dentistry. Through such preventative measures, we can significantly help to avoid long-term problems and promote the dental health of our clients.

Our recommendations and referrals

While ALPINE WHITE Studios specialises in professional dental cleanings, whitening and preventative dental care, we recognise that some situations require advanced dental treatments beyond routine cleanings and fluoride treatments. In such cases, especially when specialised treatments such as dentures are required, we work closely with trusted dentists.

Why choose ALPINE WHITE Studios?

Choosing a dental practice that impresses with a team of experienced professionals, the use of advanced technology and a warm and welcoming atmosphere plays a crucial role in a positive dental care experience. At ALPINE WHITE Studios, we take great care to ensure that every visit is as pleasant and effective as possible. Our Studio stands out with an ambience that leaves the typical visit to the dentist far behind. Here we welcome our customers in an environment that radiates well-being and tranquillity. When they leave our studios, our customers not only take away a brighter smile, but also the certainty that they have received the best possible care that both fulfils their expectations and promotes their health.

Our ALPINE WHITE Studios in Zurich and other locations in Switzerland pride themselves on improving the dental health of our community with a high standard of dental care. We invite you to visit our Studios and experience for yourself how we are redefining dental hygiene and helping every client achieve a healthier, happier smile.

How often should you brush your teeth?

Brushing your teeth is the basis of any dental hygiene regime. The general recommendation is to brush your teeth thoroughly at least twice a day - in the morning and in the evening. However, it's not just about how often, but also how you brush your teeth. Use a fluoride toothpaste and a soft toothbrush to avoid damaging the enamel and gums.

The role of dental floss and interdental brushes

Cleaning the spaces between your teeth should be an integral part of your daily dental care routine. Dental floss and interdental brushes remove plaque and food debris from areas that your toothbrush cannot reach. This is particularly important as tartar often forms in these interdental spaces, which can lead to gum inflammation.

Special care for braces and implants

Do you wear braces or have implants? These require special care. Use special brushes or threads to ensure that even the hard-to-reach areas are cleaned. This helps to prevent gum inflammation and bad breath.

Nutrition and oral health

What you eat plays a big role in your dental health. Avoid sugary snacks and drinks, as sugar is the main cause of plaque and tooth decay. Instead, you should choose nutrient-rich foods that are rich in vitamins and minerals. Also remember to drink plenty of water to keep your mouth moisturised and support saliva production, which naturally protects against bacteria.

New technologies in dental care

A lot has happened in the world of dental hygiene in recent years, and thanks to the constant development and introduction of new technologies, it is now easier than ever to ensure the perfect care for your teeth. Modern electric toothbrushes, advanced powder jet polishers and specially formulated toothpastes offer improved ways to thoroughly clean the surface of your teeth and keep your smile sparkling. It is important that you seek advice from a qualified dental hygienist to find the products and appliances that best suit your personal needs and provide you with the best support in your daily dental care.
