I 3 STEP PER UN MIGLIORE CONTROLLO
DEL BIOFILM SOPRAGENGIVALE1,2
LA SFIDA QUOTIDIANA
DI IGIENE ORALE
DEI TUOI PAZIENTI
Circa la metà della popolazione soffre di malattie parodontali9
Nell’intervallo di tempo tra le visite dentistiche, tenere sotto controllo il biofilm, quotidianamente e in autonomia, è importante per il mantenimento della salute orale10
I pazienti hanno ancora difficoltà
nella loro routine di igiene orale
Il tempo di spazzolamento
medio è di 46 secondi11
Solo il 31% delle persone dichiara di usare il filo interdentale12, nonostante questo sia indicato come necessario per la protezione della salute orale13,1
I pazienti potrebbero avere difficoltà nell’uso del filo interdentale per via di una mancanza di destrezza manuale, per mancanza di tempo o perché lo trovano doloroso14,15
