Prevention instead of filling! Preserving instead of drilling! For this preventive approach, professional dental cleaning plays an important role in practice. This is where Flairesse from DMG comes in.

The Flairesse prophylaxis system offers the choice between paste, foam, gel or varnish, all containing xylitol and fluoride. Xylitol is an artificial sweetener which reduces the cariogenicity of plaque because it prevents the bacteria from adhering to the surfaces of the teeth as a biofilm. Clinical studies have proven its cariostatic and anticariogenic effect. Similarly, there is no question that fluorides are important for dental health.

With the Flairesse system, there is an option on hand for each step. A prophylaxis paste to remove plaque and staining; gel or foam, according to personal preference, for fluoridation; and a varnish for desensitising exposed dentine tubules – all of which are free of added sugar and known allergens and taste pleasantly fresh. They are all available in mint and honeydew flavours, whilst the foam and gel are additionally available in strawberry.
