Air Abrasion Treatment in Hawthorn Woods

Air Abrasion

Air abrasion is a minimally invasive procedure that removes deterioration from teeth in a different way. It can also be used to prepare a tooth’s surface for a bonding technique, sealant application, or the elimination of certain stains and discolorations on the enamel.

Air abrasion works like a miniature sandblaster, generating a small stream of particles that may be precisely targeted at the tooth’s damaged areas. The decay is efficiently and softly eliminated as the spray of particles strikes the tooth’s surface. A dentist can remove mild decay while leaving good tooth structure intact with this procedure.

The benefit of air abrasion technology is that it eliminates the dental drill’s harsh sound and vibration. This is usually a bonus for people who are apprehensive about undergoing dental care. Additionally, the use of air abrasion technology could reduce the need for a local anesthetic.

Air abrasion is a great, simple, rapid, and effective alternative to the dental drill, but it does have some drawbacks. Large cavities and the removal of old fillings may still necessitate a more traditional technique in some circumstances.
