Prophyjet spray is typically done after a scale and polish to remove stubborn stains or clean less accessible areas. The calcium and fluoride based powder is loaded into the prophyjet handpiece which is then used to spray the affected or less accessible areas allowing the stains to be removed within seconds.You will feel the water and powder sprayed on your teeth but it is not a painful or unpleasant experience. It typically lasts a few minutes only as stains are removed very quickly with the high velocity water jet.
Usually, a Prophy-Jet is employed for eliminating soft deposits (such as plaque) from teeth while scaling and root planing target hard deposits (like calculus) on the teeth’s surface and near the gumline. A Prophy-Jet cannot eliminate stains from genetic or traumatic origins.
Prophy jet polishing is considered to be a safer and more efficient alternative to traditional tooth polishing tools, and patients tend to choose this treatment for various reasons. There are no unsettling, buzzing, or vibrating sounds with the prophy jet.
Prophy paste is a paste with gentle abrasives, utilized for eliminating dental plaque and surface stains. Prophylaxis paste is applied to teeth for polishing in order to prevent the accumulation of plaque. Dental paste is made up of a combination of cleaning and polishing particles. It is utilized in a professional capacity during dental cleanings.
The powder containing calcium and fluoride is put into the prophyjet handpiece, which is utilized to spray affected or hard-to-reach areas, enabling the quick removal of stains. You will sense the water and powder being sprayed on your teeth, but it won’t be painful or unpleasant.
Dental prophylaxis can prevent oral health issues like gum disease, tooth decay, and tooth loss. The entire meeting could last approximately 60 minutes.
The Prophy-Jet provides hygienists with a modern option as opposed to traditional instruments. While traditional polishing uses a rotating rubber cup with abrasive paste, the Prophy-Jet uses high pressured water to remove soft deposits like dental plaque.

Prophy Jet polishing is not only utilized in routine dental cleanings but may also be suggested prior to receiving dental bonding or braces from your dentist. Removing dental plaque and deposits from teeth can lower the chances of bacteria thriving beneath composite resin bonding or braces.
