With the new Air-Flow Master, EMS has developed the world’s first air polishing unit for the periodontal pocket.
This subgingival periodontal therapy device uses a specially formulated, ultrafine 25-μm glycine powder and a unique disposable nozzle tip to access the depths of the periodontal pocket. The biokinetic energy, applied in a powderair- water mixture, removes the biofilm down to the base of the pocket, brings about a sustained reduction in bacteria, firms the gum, and reduces the pocket depth. The procedure is now more efficient and more comfortable than conventional curettes or instruments. The Air-Flow Master not only takes care of periodontal pockets, but also provides supragingival air polishing. Whether plaque or hard deposits, the Air- Flow handpiece gently and selectively “strokes” the tooth surfaces clean with the appropriate powder.
