Dental ProphylaxisPrevention is the Best Protection

Dear Patients,

Prevention is better than cure – this is particularly true in dentistry. Targeted dental prophylaxis can help detect and prevent many diseases such as caries or gum inflammation at an early stage.

What happens with  tooth decay and gum inflammation?

What happens with tooth decay and gum inflammation?

Tooth decay is caused by bacterial acid formation on the tooth surfaces. Sugar from food is converted into aggressive acids that attack the tooth enamel. If left untreated, this leads to holes in the teeth.

Gum inflammation (gingivitis) is also often the result of inadequate oral hygiene. If the inflammation becomes chronic, it can not only lead to tooth loss, but is also associated with systemic diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, intestinal or lung problems. Even neurological complaints or an increased risk of cancer are being discussed scientifically.

Prevention is  more than just brushing your teeth

Holistic dental care includes:

  • Individual nutritional advice
  • Recommendations on toothbrushes, toothpastes and aids
  • Targeted information on the use of fluoride
  • Information on risks such as smoking
  • And of course, regular professional teeth cleaning

Particularly in the case of children, cooperation between parents, pediatricians, nurseries and dentists is crucial in order to prevent tooth decay in the long term.

Brushing your teeth  correctly

Each tooth has five surfaces and all of them must be cleaned gently and systematically:

Front
(towards the cheek)

Back
(tongue/palate)

Two contact surfaces with the neighboring teeth

Chewing or cutting surface

Our advice: Brush your teeth as if they were a valuable object – with care, but not too hard. This will prevent painful damage caused by brushing, which can shorten the life of your teeth, and ensure your long-term dental health.

Why have your teeth  professionally cleaned?

Despite good care, plaque remains that can only be thoroughly removed by a professional. Depending on your individual situation, we recommend one to four cleanings per year.

We offer tailor-made aftercare, especially for sensitive gums or periodontal problems.

Zweite StufeAusleiten und Entlasten

Nun konzentrieren wir uns auf ein ausgeglichenes inneres Milieu des Körpers und schaffen damit die Basis für einen Heilungserfolg. Wichtige Instrumente sind dabei die Zahnsanierung, die Darmsanierung oder die Entgiftung der Organe. In dieser Phase setzen wir die Blut-Plasma-Doppelmembran-Filtration (INUSpherese®) und eine ganzheitliche Schmerztherapie ein und reduzieren schrittweise nebenwirkungsreiche Medikamente der konventionellen Medizin.

Stage threeRegenerate and stimulate

In this step, we promote recovery and stimulate the immune system: We stimulate the humoral and cellular defenses with a wide range of non-specific and specific immune stimulants, immune-boosting measures such as hyperthermia, infusions, ozone therapy and colon hydrotherapy. The stimulation and vitalization of all organs and physical structures are components of our holistic concept.

Step twoDetox and relieve

We now concentrate on creating a balanced internal environment in the body, thereby creating the basis for successful healing. Important instruments here are dental cleansing, intestinal cleansing and detoxification of the organs. In this phase, we use blood plasma double membrane filtration (INUSpheresis® ) and holistic pain therapy and gradually reduce the use of conventional medicines that have many side effects.

Stage oneAnalyse causes

In the first step, we work with you to get to the bottom of the possible causes of your complaints. We examine possible interference fields, toxic loads, environmental factors, deficiencies, malnutrition and stress factors. This is followed by a comprehensive physical and dental examination. This is followed by further diagnostic measures such as blood, stool, saliva and urine tests, thermography and other tools.
