Why? professional hygiene is so important ?
Even with proper home hygiene, plaque and tartar tend to accumulate in areas that are difficult to reach with a toothbrush and interdental brush.
Over time, these deposits can favor the onset of gum inflammation, tooth decay, and periodontal diseases.
Professional hygiene allows for the effective removal of these accumulations and for the continuous monitoring of the oral cavity’s health status.
