Air-polishing to remove unsightly stains (coffee, wine, tobacco, etc.).
The session lasts 20 to 30 minutes
We use the advanced technology of the EMS air polisher (AIRFLOW), guaranteeing deep cleaning and optimum comfort during treatment.
This method is particularly effective for removing stubborn stains and plaque, while being gentle on the gums. Your teeth will feel incomparably clean and fresh after each session.
If you are a new patient
It’s essential to start by having your teeth scaled and checked, because it’s not right to remove unsightly coffee or tobacco stains without knowing the state of your teeth and gums.
Our hygienists are not authorised to remove these stains if there is still tartar on your teeth, or if your dental or gum condition has not been stabilised beforehand.
Fair & transparent prices
We strive to maintain unbeatable value for money: reasonable prices, which have not changed since 2016, for quality of care that has earned us numerous awards:
Advice
At the end of the session, tartar and unsightly stains (tobacco, coffee, tea, etc.) have been removed from the surface of your teeth, leaving them smooth, soft and shiny. You will then be given personalised dental hygiene advice to help you maintain this level of health and prevent plaque and tartar from reaccumulating on your teeth.
Next appointment
Your next appointment (recall) is scheduled as part of the personalised follow-up offered by CHD. This is based on your lifestyle, the quality of your saliva and other parameters, to ensure that your oral health remains at an optimum level. And you don’t have to worry about it any more, we’ll take care of reminding you: text message, letter, email, it’s your choice!

Find out more about quick polishing
What does quick polishing involve?
Each year, to maintain good oral health, you should have at least one scaling and polishing session.
Quick polishing complements this session. It involves removing unsightly stains caused by coffee, tea, tobacco, or wine.
The session lasts 20 to 30 minutes and is performed by your hygienist using an EMS AIRFLOW air polisher.
Who is quick polishing recommended for?
Quick polishing is recommended for patients who frequently consume substances or foods that stain teeth, such as coffee, tea, wine, or tobacco.
Quick polishing is only performed as a complement to your regular scaling sessions. At CHD, all new patients must first undergo an initial assessment (and an initial scaling) so the hygienist can evaluate their dental and gum health.
What is the difference between quick polishing and dental cleaning?
Dental cleaning involves removing tartar and dental plaque accumulated on your teeth using an ultrasonic system (or manually with curettes). It is inseparable from polishing, which completes the cleaning process by making your teeth clean, smooth, and shiny.
Quick polishing is a traditional polishing session performed as a complement to your regular scaling and polishing session.
How often should I have a quick polishing session?
It depends on how quickly unsightly stains reappear on your teeth, which is influenced by:
– The quantity and frequency of your consumption of foods or substances that cause staining;
– Your oral hygiene habits: the more rigorously you follow your hygienist’s advice, the slower the stains will return.
