Adult prophylaxis

Preserve your teeth for a lifetime with efficient dental prophylaxis.

Not all dental plaque can be removed with the help of dental floss and a toothbrush. In particular, wearers of high-quality dentures (implants/fixed dentures) should treat themselves to regular dental cleanings so that they can enjoy their investment for a long time. This is where professional tooth cleaning comes in.


Professional tooth cleaning (PZR): Bacterial plaque on tooth surfaces and in gum pockets is the main cause of diseases of your teeth and gums (caries and periodontitis). Professional teeth cleaning supports dental health in the long term. Regular sessions every 3 to 6 months significantly reduce the risk of these diseases (this has been proven several times in international research studies). The PZR includes the following services:

  • Assessment of the current state of health of your teeth and gums
  • Tartar removal using ultrasound
  • Plaque removal with Air-Flow
  • Polishing of the tooth surfaces
  • Cleaning of the interdental spaces
  • Demonstration and instruction of the customised tooth brushing technique and other aids such as dental floss, interdental brushes, etc.
  • Fluoridation - a special varnish is used to strengthen the enamel and reduce tooth sensitivity ("hot/cold effect")

The costs of the treatments are partly covered by private health insurance companies.
