How AirFlow® works

AirFlow® uses a fine spray of water, air and an ultra-soft erythritol powder to gently disrupt and wash away plaque, biofilm and surface staining — even from the trickiest spots between teeth and around gum lines. Unlike traditional polishing, there's no buzz of a rotating brush — just a quiet, refreshing spray that patients often find surprisingly pleasant.

As your local dentist in St Albans, we use the latest EMS AirFlow technology to ensure the most thorough, comfortable clean possible.

Who is it for?

  • Anyone wanting a noticeably brighter, fresher-feeling smile
  • Patients with stains from coffee, tea, red wine or tobacco
  • Patients with sensitive teeth or gums who find traditional polishing uncomfortable
  • People with braces, retainers or aligners
  • Patients with implants — AirFlow® is the clinically recommended way to clean around implants safely

AirFlow® or traditional polish?

AirFlow® is more thorough at biofilm and stain removal than traditional rubber-cup polishing, and reaches areas that conventional cleaning struggles with. We're often happy to combine both techniques for the very best result. Your hygienist will recommend the right approach for you — and you can read more about AirFlow® tooth polishing in St Albans on our practice website.
