Ultra - clean your mouth with a new micro-cleaning process powered with 100% pure ultrasound
The development of an ultrasonic toothbrush device to clean your teeth and mouth with ultrasound represents a revolution in the field of dental care and prophylactic treatment of the entire oral cavity. Conventional toothbrushes - manual or electric, only clean where the bristles can reach and are effective because of the abrasive elements contained in the toothpaste. Many toothpastes are too abrasive and actually strip away tooth enamel, which does not grow back! Conventional toothpastes are generally high in "abrasive" substances (which are measured in RDA: 70-130 RDA), while the RDA value of Emmi-dent Ultrasound Toothpaste is ZERO. (RDA - Relative Dentin Abrasivity).
Conventional toothbrushes - manual or electric, only clean areas where the bristles can reach. With the new EMAG technology, the brush head's bristles channel ultrasound from the transducer directly to the ultrasound toothpaste which, due to the sonic action, is transformed into millions of microscopic bubbles, that efficiently penetrate even the smallest gaps between the teeth, implants or braces, without using any mechanical pressure, mechanical abrasion or by placing any kind of stress on the teeth and gums.
Scientific Background: How ultrasound kills bacteria
The fundamental research of the effects of ultrasound on bacteria dates back to 1953, when Dr. Hartwick (Freie Universitaet in Berlin/Germany) published his studies on the effects of ultrasound on bacteria.
In 1978, the two researchers, Sajas und Gorbatow were able to prove and document the destruction of micro organisms using ultrasound.
In 1992, new studies published by Schutt - Abraham et al confirmed the findings in a document "The rupture of bacteria cells and enzymes". The antibacterial effect of ultrasound (as with Emmi-dental Professional, the brush head develops 96 million oscillations per minute) is based on the very rapid sequence of pressure increase and decrease (cavity principle) in the cells of the micro-organism, which leads to stress on the organism's membranes and a consequential destruction of the cells.
The triple benefits obtained from the use of Emmi-dental Professional and Emmi-dent 6 Professional are, that it helps to prevent or minimize dental diseases by attacking the problem: the bacteria, which is fundamentally the reason for dental problems.
Bacteria on the tooth surface and gums, together with other substances such as sugar or starch, form a sticky plaque. This plaque is the root cause of gum irritation and inflammation of the gums. The plaque that builds up around the gingival margins of the teeth forms an ideal matrix for the growth of harmful bacteria that causes gingivitis. The waste product of these bacteria is highly acidic and causes caries on the fissures and gum margins of the teeth as well. Without proper hygiene this process may progress and may lead to the degradation of the gums. Fiber, tissues and bone around the teeth are destroyed initially. Gingivitis may develop leading to other problems like periodontitis. In extreme cases, teeth lose their hold and fall out or due to the level of destruction, may need to be extracted.
The Trilogy
Tooth cleaning and dental care have triple benefits when using Emmi-dental Professional or Emmi-dent 6 Professional, both based on ultrasound.
1. It gently cleans the tooth surfaces, the areas between the teeth, periodontal pockets and fissures. After cleaning with ultrasound, put your tongue on your teeth - the surface feels smooth, because plaque and other contaminants have been removed.
2. The antibacterial effect of ultrasound helps to remove plaque and tartar; the risk of inflammation is substantially reduced.
3. Ultrasound waves not only kill bacteria and germs on the inside and outside of the teeth and gums preventing:
- plaque
- caries and
- tartar,
but are also effective on the gums, as ultrasound penetrates approximately 12 mm deep into the tissues and extirpates bacteria and inflammation at the periodontal and root areas of the teeth. By increasing blood circulation in the tissues and by the release of the body's own energies, the immune system and thus the body's own power of resistance is significantly strengthened, which in turn leads to the acceleration of the healing process.The positive effect of Emmi-dent oral hygiene using ultrasound is noticeable soon after the first application. Your teeth feel as though they have just been professionally cleaned.
