We all know that flossing is the gold standard for home dental care and the prevention of dental disease but how many of us floss on a regular basis? If you brush regularly and do not floss you are only cleaning 60% of your teeth. That’s 40% of your teeth that are not getting cleaned.
I would guestimate that about 40% of our patients floss every day or at least a few times a week. That leaves the majority of patients as non flossers. What happens when you don’t floss is that a plaque biofilm builds up between your teeth. This biofilm leads to cavities, gum disease and halitosis (bad breath).
Up to now there really hasn’t been an effective way to clean between your teeth without flossing. Now we believe we have a great substitute. We have been chosen as one of the first dental offices in Philadelphia that will offer the revolutionary Sonicare AirFloss.
This ingenious device shoots a small burst of water and air between your teeth which effectively blasts away the biofilm. In fact, combined with brushing, the AirFloss removes up to 99% of the biofilm between teeth than brushing alone. We are so sure you will be happy with this AirFloss and see positive results there is a full refund if you are not 100% satisfied.
We are anxious to get our first AirFlossers and try them out on ourselves. The potential seems great! We are told they will be here next month. Once we do our trials, we will report our findings to you (and Sonicare).
For more information to see if this tool would be beneficial to your oral health please contact our office (215-735-8844) or ask our staff at your next visit. You have scheduled that haven’t you?
