Why professional teeth cleaning is important for everyone
Even with very thorough dental care at home, certain areas of the mouth remain difficult to reach. Over time, bacterial plaque accumulates in the spaces between the teeth and at the gum line, hardening into stubborn tartar. Discolouration caused by coffee, tea or tobacco often cannot be removed with a toothbrush alone.
At The Eram Clinic, we pick up where home care leaves off. Our dental hygiene is a preventive measure of the highest medical standard, which effectively protects against caries and periodontitis and gives you back the feeling of perfectly smooth, clean teeth.
The Eram standard: precise, gentle & effective
We use state-of-the-art procedures to make the treatment as pleasant and time-saving as possible for you. Each session is individually tailored to your current dental status and the sensitivity of your gums.
- AIRFLOW® procedure: A gentle powder-water jet removes biofilm and stubborn pigment stains even in the narrowest crevices – gentle on enamel and gums.
- Modern ultrasound technology: Effective and painless removal of tartar, even below the gum line.
- Fine polishing & smoothing: A final polish with high-quality pastes seals the surfaces, making it more difficult for bacteria to reattach.
- Deep fluoridation: We strengthen your enamel in a targeted manner to increase its resistance to acid attacks.
- Prevention coaching: Our experts give you valuable tips for optimising your routine at home, tailored to your individual dental situation.

The importance of oral health for the whole body
Modern dentistry does not view the oral cavity in isolation. Scientific findings increasingly confirm the link between oral hygiene and general health. Chronic inflammation of the gums can increase the risk of systemic diseases and put strain on the immune system.
Our specialists at The Eram Clinic are trained to detect even the smallest changes at an early stage. Through systematic cleaning, we significantly reduce the bacterial load in your oral cavity. Regular dental hygiene is therefore one of the simplest and most effective investments you can make in your overall vitality and health.
Professional expertise and state-of-the-art equipment
What sets our treatment apart is the close collaboration between specialised dental hygienists and experienced dentists. Thanks to our state-of-the-art technical equipment and in-house laboratory, we can respond immediately to your needs. If, for example, you have veneers or implants, we treat them with special, gentle instruments to guarantee the longevity of your dental prostheses.

Frequently asked questions about dental hygiene
Gum diseases such as periodontitis often remain painless and unnoticed for years. By the time pain occurs, the disease is usually already well advanced. Regular cleaning helps to prevent such problems before they arise.
Professional cleaning is usually painless. We minimise discomfort by using warm water during the Airflow treatment and very fine instruments. If necessary, we can numb sensitive areas beforehand.
We recommend waiting about an hour until the protective coating or fluoridation has been completely absorbed. You should also avoid strongly coloured foods and drinks such as coffee, red wine or saffron for a few hours, as the tooth surface is temporarily more receptive to colour pigments.
Yes, especially so. Implants require very careful care of the surrounding tissue to prevent inflammation (peri-implantitis). We use special instruments made of carbon or plastic that do not scratch the surfaces.
Compulsory basic insurance does not usually cover preventive care. However, many supplementary insurance policies contribute a fixed annual amount towards the costs of dental hygiene.
