Frequent consumption of coffee, tea, or wine, as well as habits such as smoking, can contribute to accumulation of stains on the surface of one’s teeth. These stains are rough and provide even more surface area to harbor plaque that would then turn into calcular deposits over time. If not removed, they can lead to periodontal problems. Sometimes, regular scaling will not be able to remove these types of stains. A faster and more efficient method of stain removal is to use air polish. The procedure uses a fine jet of compressed air, water and fine powder particles to gently remove stains on the surface of teeth.
