Air Abrasion

AIR ABRASION IS USED TO:

  • Clean stains
  • Prepare pits and grooves of teeth for optimal sealant application
  • Remove decay and diseased tooth structure

Air Abrasion is a drill-less technology that can be used in the early treatment of cavities. A microscopically fine powder, carried on a stream of air, is directed at each suspect tooth to gently spray away decay. Air Abrasion offers diminished noise, no vibration, and less chair time. Usually there is no need for an anesthetic.
