EMS Airflow Hygiene in Welling
Healthy gums are the foundation of a healthy smile. Even with good brushing at home, plaque and staining can build up in areas that are difficult to reach, especially along the gumline and between teeth. EMS Airflow Hygiene is a modern, comfortable way to keep your mouth feeling exceptionally clean, support gum health and help lift everyday staining.
EMS Airflow uses a controlled mix of air, warm water and fine powder to gently remove plaque (biofilm), soft deposits and surface stains. Many patients find it more pleasant than traditional polishing, and it’s particularly effective for staining caused by tea, coffee, red wine and smoking. It’s also a great option for maintaining results after whitening or orthodontic treatment.

What happens during an Airflow hygiene visit
Your appointment is tailored to you. We’ll check your gum health, talk through any concerns (such as bleeding gums or sensitivity), and then carry out a thorough clean using EMS Airflow where appropriate. If you have any areas with hardened deposits, we’ll remove these carefully and comfortably, and finish with personalised advice to help you maintain results at home.

To get the best out of your hygiene visits, we’ll advise on a routine that suits your mouth and lifestyle—usually including twice-daily brushing with fluoride toothpaste and the right interdental cleaning for you. Regular hygiene appointments help prevent small issues from becoming bigger problems, keeping gums healthier and your smile easier to maintain.
How often should I have EMS Airflow?
The ideal frequency depends on your gum health, lifestyle and how quickly you build up plaque or staining. Many patients benefit from Airflow as part of a regular maintenance routine, while others may be advised to attend more frequently if there are signs of gum inflammation, bleeding or a history of gum disease. We’ll recommend a schedule that keeps your mouth healthy and helps you maintain that “just cleaned” feeling for longer.
