Hygienist Session Lithuania

Recent scientific studies have shown that proper oral hygiene is highly significant not only for oral health but also for overall body health as it maintains a healthy balance of the oral microbiome.A healthy, balanced oral microbiome performs numerous essential functions for the body, including protecting it from other disease-causing microbes. It serves as a sort of immunological gatekeeper, safeguarding our bodies.Failure to perform professional oral hygiene in a timely manner leads to the formation of deposits (plaque) on teeth and surrounding areas, disrupting the balance of the microbiome. In such cases, the hard tissues of the teeth are damaged, leading to tooth decay. When periodontal tissues are compromised, infection sites called “periodontal pockets” form, opening the “gateways” for disease-causing microorganisms and their toxins to enter the body, bypassing the immune system.By removing deposits from the tooth surfaces using ultrasound, followed by polishing with special brushes, polishing paste, and powders, the oral microbiome normalizes, maintaining good oral and overall body health.At the “Aukštėja” clinic, ozone therapy is also used during hygiene procedures to normalize the oral microbiome. Ozone destroys disease-causing (anaerobic) microorganisms while enriching cells and beneficial bacteria with oxygen.At the “Aukštėja” clinic, patients are taught individual oral hygiene and introduced to the effective “SOLO” oral preventive program. By correctly cleaning the teeth and interdental spaces using the “SOLO” method, the development of tooth decay, periodontal disease, and other oral diseases is prevented.
