We can help you reveal whiter, brighter teeth while also removing plaque with Airflow® Tooth Polishing.

Airflow® tooth polishing is an innovative way to thoroughly clean teeth. It doesn’t make use of chemicals and is much gentler than more traditional methods such as scale and polish.

FAQs

How does it work?

Using a combination of warm water, a controlled jet of air, and aluminium oxide powder particles, Airflow® tooth polishing removes surface staining along with any build-up of plaque and tartar that may be present.

What kind of stains can be removed with Airflow® tooth polishing?

Airflow® tooth polishing is particularly effective at removing stains caused by food and beverages. So, staining from the likes of tea, coffee, red wine or smoking and even some mouthwashes can be removed.

Who is it suitable for?

While there will of course be some exceptions to the rule, Airflow® tooth polishing is by and large suitable for use on almost all our patients. Its gentle method of removing stains and plaque build-up means it can be used on restorations, orthodontics, veneers, and even really sensitive teeth.

Why choose Airflow® tooth polishing?

Our helpful, friendly, and highly knowledgeable team will be able to help you decide whether this treatment is right for you, but it’s a great choice for anyone looking to brighten their teeth without the use of chemicals. It’s also advisable for anyone with plaque and tartar build-up and is a particularly effective addition to any dental hygiene routine. The results can last for a long time afterwards, but the treatment is most effective when undertaken regularly, so we can help you avoid plaque and tartar build-up, as well as unsightly teeth staining.

Great service for a nervous patient. Visited today as a NHS patient with a painful tooth and had probably the best consultation I’ve ever had at a dental practice. Dr Roshan Patel couldn’t have been any kinder or more patient. He listened and didn’t make me feel rushed, explained all the treatment options, checked I was happy with the choice I made and then explained next steps. Thank you!

Fantastic surgery!! I saw Preeya, the dentist for a small lost filling. As it was an emergency appointment, I only expected a temporary fix. Upon seeing my nerves, Preeya offered to do the filling there and then as she had the time. She was so gentle and reassuring. I later saw Donna, the hygienist who gave me a much needed thorough clean. She was extremely gentle and throughout the clean kept checking I was ok. She is extremely knowledgeable and took the time after my clean to make explain fully what she had done and also made suggestions and tips for me to try at home. Overall, I’m so impressed with the professionalism of the surgery and would whole heartedly recommend it.

As someone who is anxious and really hate the dentists. Hate interacting and don't do well with the sounds and pain involved in teeth. With many bad experiences, I can say that West Street are fantastic. They are so understanding, try and give me the options clearly and make it easy for me to get treatment at a pace that works for me.They have changed how I view dentists and give me the confidence to get treatment before it's too late.

Spent alot of time and money with this dentist for my invisalign treatment and implant. Nothing was too much trouble with Nil during my treatment. Even though I had a few issues on the way he was fully supportive and kept in touch throughout. Would recommend this dentist.

I had two sets of implants, a bridge, 2 crowns and an extraction along with a couple of other procedures. Nil and his team were patient and helpful throughout. Above all, the work was well done and succeeded as promised. Almost a mouth-rejuvination. Suffice to say that I am very pleased. Expensive but effective.

I was given my appointment for a regular check up within a fortnight of calling reception (spoke to Denny, hope I have her name right!). This is a first class practice which I have been attending for many years and I have always received very professional service, thank you so much Nil and your team.

Saleen is a wonderful dentist! I don't like going to the dentist at all, but she did an amazing job putting me at ease while explaining the dental procedure. Sophie is also wonderful! She made me feel comfortable, she was very attentive and made my hygiene treatment painless and quick. Thank you very much Saleen & Carmen + Sophie & Nina, you were all absolutely fantastic, very friendly and caring! Receptionists are all friendly and helpful as well. Everyone at this practice is so welcoming and kind! Highly recommended!

I visit my hygienist, Donna, approximately every four months. I am a typical nervous patient but Donna is reassuring, kind and gentle. Although gentle, she gets the job done as I have receding gums and large pockets. Highly recommend.

I have been visiting this dental practice for a number of years.I have been and continue to be very pleased with the service I receive.It is not always easy finding the right practice you feel comfortable withand past experiences with other dentists has not always been positive.Today, I attended a Hygienist appointment with Donna. I have extremely sensitive teeth and this treatment can be both uncomfortable and even painful. I have never felt any discomfort and I am extremely relaxed aboutattending. Confident in the knowledge that careful attention is taken tomy needs. In turn I receive a thorough treatment and feel I am being treated in a very professional and organised manner.Donna has a friendly caring manner which makes you feel at ease and will always explains what is happening. So I am a happy and returning patient.
