Air abrasion uses a process that "sand blasts" the tooth to rapidly remove tooth decay and enamel. It uses a pressurized stream of microscopic, non-toxic abrasive powder to remove the decay.
Air abrasion is quiet. The only nosie is a sound similiar to a vacuum cleaner. It doesn't produce the vibrations or the heat the a drill does. For many patients, the procedure requires little or no anesthesia. |
