Professional dental cleaning at Clinica 10 is essential every year to prevent disease. It is about eliminating bacterial dental plaque, bad breath and preventing gum diseases such as periodontitis and gingivitis. manual brushing techniques. 
There are several techniques of brushing, but there is no technique that is perfect for everyone. The best technique depends on the morphology of the teeth, the skill of the patient and some other things. The technique that for Clínica10 is most effective for dental cleaning and therefore we recommend, is known as Bass technique. This dental cleaning technique allows you to eliminate the bacteria found in the gingival margin. These are the causes of gum diseases, such as gingivitis or periodontitis. It consists of tilting the brush 45º degrees between tooth and gum, so that the filaments come into contact with the gum-tooth margin and cover two or three teeth. It is convenient to make very small movements of vibration or circular, without pressure and without the filaments moving from their position from the gum to the edge of the tooth. To avoid bleeding and retraction of the gums, it is important not to apply too much pressure. Many patients think that by exerting more pressure, cleanliness is better, and it is not. Excessive pressure favors abrasion and tooth sensitivity. Therefore, the key for this technique to be effective is to perform vertical and smooth movements. In the anterior teeth, on the inner face, should be done with the vertical brush. Likewise, we recommend at least once a year a prophylaxis or dental cleaning in depth and professionally. This is the best way to prevent dental diseases and maintain proper oral health.
