Airflow is a method of cleaning teeth where we use a mixture of salt, water, and added flavorings that is sprayed onto the teeth. With this technique, superficial stains that can come from the food we eat, as well as coffee, cigarettes, tea, and red wine, disappear. Many people like to think of Airflow as a kind of high-pressure wash for the teeth. Airflow is included in our examination and cleaning (NOK 695), but if you only want Airflow, you can just book a teeth cleaning (NOK 395).

There are many different ways to brush your teeth. Two well-known methods for doing it correctly are either using a back-and-forth motion or circular movements. Here is our guide to good tooth brushing: - Hold the toothbrush horizontally along the gum line so that the bristles are in contact with the gums. - The brush should be held at an angle, pointing towards the gum line. - Move the brush back and forth in either a back-and-forth or circular motion on each tooth. - The bristles of the toothbrush should stay in the same spot as you move back and forth. If it hurts, you are brushing too hard. - Remember to brush the chewing surfaces of the teeth, which is the top of the tooth. Then continue to the outside towards the cheek and the inside towards the tongue/palate. - Finish by brushing the inside of your front teeth in both jaws. You can do this best by holding the toothbrush vertically. Good luck with your tooth brushing!

Dental floss is an effective tool for easily removing plaque and food particles that accumulate between the teeth. A toothbrush cannot reach between the teeth, so it is recommended to supplement your oral care with dental floss to keep your mouth properly clean. The most common place to get cavities is between the teeth, and regular use of dental floss reduces the risk of cavities and other dental issues. During an examination with us, we can certainly show you the proper way to use dental floss.

It is not dangerous to use toothpaste with fluoride, as the amount of fluoride is relatively small. The recommended dosage is 1000-1500 ppm twice daily—this dosage will be indicated on the toothpaste label. Research clearly shows that fluoride toothpaste is effective and is a simple, safe, and beneficial investment for dental health. As long as the toothpaste contains the recommended fluoride dosage, you can use whichever toothpaste you prefer.
