The bacteria in our oral cavity are among the most aggressive in the human body. The long-term presence and maintenance of chronic inflammatory processes can exacerbate or even cause other serious illnesses. These include, for example, diseases of the blood vessels or the heart, rheumatic diseases and diabetes mellitus.

At the beginning of the prophylaxis treatment, our prophylaxis assistants carry out special examinations to determine your personal caries and periodontitis risk. The results are evaluated and discussed with you in detail. We then carry out a comprehensive professional tooth cleaning (PZR). At the end of the treatment, we will explain and demonstrate how to use familiar products for oral and dental hygiene at home (dental floss, interdental brushes, tongue cleaner, etc.) in a final consultation. In this way, a healthy oral flora is quickly established in motivated patients.

Regular check-ups (recall) are an important part of prophylaxis, the core of which should also be professional teeth cleaning (PZR). Even after successful treatment and restoration of dental health, we attach great importance to sustainable and regular care, in which your personal oral hygiene at home also plays a decisive role.

We recommend that you have your teeth professionally cleaned every six months.

Unfortunately, statutory health insurance companies are not prepared to cover the costs of prophylaxis. However, some supplementary insurance companies have now recognized the benefits of treatment and cover the fees in full or in part. We will be happy to inform you about the expected amount of the investment in our practice.

For children, a visit to the dentist is not always a pleasant experience and is often associated with anxiety and excitement. It is therefore particularly important to us that we treat our youngest patients with the necessary patience, calm and sensitivity. A first visit to our practice can make sense even with the first milk teeth. We introduce your child to dental treatment in a playful way and ensure a relaxed and happy atmosphere. This is the best way to ensure that a visit to the dentist is perceived positively right from the start and that anxiety does not arise in the first place.

Child-friendly treatment methods should make the visit as pleasant as possible and ensure that all preconceptions are overcome.

We specialize in paediatric dentistry and lay the foundation for a life with healthy and strong teeth through close check-ups and careful child prophylaxis.

In addition to treating children in our practice, we are also intensively involved in group prophylaxis together with LAGZ Sachsen e.V.. We look after a total of eight facilities in the Kesselsdorf - Wilsdruff area with a total of 600 children. Once or twice a year, we visit daycare centers, kindergartens, primary and secondary schools to provide children with valuable information about good oral hygiene and healthy eating from an early age.

The facilities include:

• Elementary school Oberhermsdorf
• Elementary school Wilsdruff
• Middle school Wilsdruff
• KiGa Grumbach Gänseblümchen
• KiGa Sonnenschein

A few groups also visit our practice at regular intervals. The children have the opportunity to play dentist and patient themselves, get to know the equipment at the dentist's workplace and thus once again overcome their fear of visiting the dentist.
