What Is Air Flow Polishing?

Air Flow polishing is an innovative dental cleaning technique that offers a more comfortable and effective alternative to traditional teeth polishing. Instead of using abrasive pastes and rubber cups, this treatment combines air, water, and a gentle powder to remove surface stains, plaque, and bacteria. It's safe for natural teeth, dental implants, orthodontic appliances, and restorations, making it a versatile choice for many patients. If you're looking for a faster, more efficient way to refresh your smile, Air Flow polishing could be the perfect solution.

One of the most significant advantages of Air Flow polishing is how gentle it is on your teeth and gums, while still delivering powerful cleaning results. This technique helps remove more than just surface stains — it also targets harmful bacteria and supports gum health. Here are some key benefits of Air Flow polishing:

  • Removing plaque and tartar buildup
  • Brightening the smile
  • Decreasing the likelihood of periodontal disease
  • Lessening irritation at the gum line
  • Improving bad breath
  • Getting rid of harmful bacteria in the mouth
  • Preserving dental enamel
  • Using advanced dental equipment and state-of-the-art technology

Air Flow polishing also helps preserve your enamel and can be safely used during maintenance cleanings for implants or after orthodontic treatments. You'll leave the appointment with a clean, smooth, and refreshed smile.

How Does Air Flow Polishing Work?

This modern polishing method uses a high-tech cleaning system that combines compressed air, warm water, and a fine powder—typically erythritol or sodium bicarbonate. Together, these elements gently remove plaque, soft buildup, and surface stains without making direct contact with your teeth. The treatment is both gentle and thorough, reaching into areas that are often difficult to clean, such as deep gum pockets or around orthodontic appliances. Since it's quieter and less abrasive than traditional polishing tools, many patients find it to be a much more comfortable experience.

I’ve had a fear of dentists my entire life. Too many bad experiences. Not any more!!! I felt like I was sitting with a friend when I met Dr. Katz. She is an amazing dentist with a wonderful personality and made me relax instantly. Definitely the best exam and cleaning I’ve ever had. The entire staff is just wonderful.

If you are looking for the ultimate experience of luxury, look no further! Maison BE truly makes its patients feel like royalty. From the moment I entered, I was greeted by lovely staff and treated to a spa experience with aromatherapy and an eye mask. Hamilton was really amazing for my cleaning. He was thorough but also gentle. My teeth feel brand new!! And finally, the fabulous Dr. Bridget, who deserves 10 stars. What’s really awesome about Dr. B is she has a way with her patients. She makes you feel comfortable but keeps it real. I feel confident she is doing the best work for me. She is truly one of a kind! Thank you Maison BE! I will see you all again soon :)

Have been looking for a new dentist since i moved to the city and after some research and a TikTok post(haha) i decided to try out Maison Be. To start off the appointment making process was so smooth for a new patient, didn't have to call just made an appointment online; the front desk staff is very very organized, so welcoming and kind, very short wait and even offered me a beverage while i waited. The hygienist(completely forgot her name but i believe it starts with a J) and Dr (Ellen Katz) were both so sweet and personable. They both made me feel so comfortable with the amenities provided AND checked in with me while they were checking and cleaning my teeth. I really appreciate the service and visit I received because as a person of color I feel a lot of offices aren't as welcoming and genuine about the care they give me. So glad I found my new dentist! Thank you so much!!!

About Us
Is teeth polishing safe?

Yes, teeth polishing is generally safe when performed by a Maison BE Dental Studio dental professional. It is a common part of routine dental cleanings and helps maintain oral hygiene. This procedure not only enhances the appearance of your teeth but also contributes to overall oral health by reducing the buildup of plaque and tartar.

Are there any side effects of teeth polishing?

Teeth polishing is safe for most people, but some may experience temporary tooth sensitivity or slight gum irritation. If you have sensitive teeth, let your dentist know beforehand. They can adjust the procedure to minimize discomfort and ensure a more comfortable experience.

Can teeth polishing whiten my teeth?

Teeth polishing can remove surface stains, making your teeth appear brighter, but it does not change the natural color of your teeth. For more significant whitening, consider professional teeth whitening treatments. These treatments can provide more noticeable results by addressing deeper stains and discoloration.
