ORAL HEALTH SOLUTIONS

HELP YOUR PATIENTS ACHIEVE AND MAINTAIN A BRIGHTER SMILE

Are you concerned that your patients’ oral hygiene is not improving despite your many attempts in oral hygiene instruction? Isn’t it time to consider that your patient may need tools to help them achieve their oral health goals? Philips has worked closely with dental practitioners to develop tools to assist patients to achieve oral health when you can’t be there to guide them. Through the Sonicare range of power toothbrushes, Philips has developed a variety of solutions for plaque control, to target gum disease and to help your patients achieve and maintain a brighter smile. Sonicare’s sonic technology creates a unique brush head movement that is a combination of high frequency and high amplitude in a wide sweeping motion, giving 62,000 bristle movements per minute. It also has a second motion - a pulsation that penetrates through the thickness of average biofilm (20-100 µm) and breaks it up, making it easier to remove with the brush head sweeping motion.

This unique movement results in a dynamic cleaning action that drives fluid between teeth, gently and effectively removing plaque interdentally and along the gum line. This movement drives toothpaste and saliva deeper between the teeth to disrupt the plaque biofilm; the fluoride in the toothpaste can then aid in remineralization and the saliva can physically clean food and debris from between the teeth. There are several Sonicare models that help you customise the toothbrush that is right for your patients, when considering their lifestyle, their budget and their oral health needs. And Sonicare has clinical evidence to support it claims.
