Elevating Your Dental Hygiene Experience

At Tooth to Tooth, we're always seeking ways to make your dental hygiene visits more comfortable and efficient. That's why we're proud to introduce the Woodpecker PT-B — a state-of-the-art dual-function hygiene system that represents the future of gentle, effective dental care.

What Makes the PT-B Special?

The Woodpecker PT-B combines two essential hygiene technologies in one compact device:

  • Air Polishing for gentle, effective biofilm and stain removal

    • Ultrasonic Scaling for precise calculus removal only where needed

    This 2-in-1 approach means we can provide thorough cleanings while minimizing discomfort and reducing your time in the chair.

    The ABC Protocol: A Smarter Approach

    The PT-B follows the ABC Protocol — a systematic approach to dental hygiene:

    A — Assess: We begin by carefully examining your teeth and gums, identifying areas that need attention and customizing your treatment plan.

    B — Biofilm Removal: Using the air polishing handpiece with gentle erythritol or glycine powder, we remove biofilm, surface stains, and early deposits. This method is:

    • Comfortable for sensitive teeth and gums

      • Safe for implants and orthodontic appliances

        • Effective above and below the gum line

        C — Clean: Only when necessary, we finish with ultrasonic scaling to remove any remaining calculus — meaning less aggressive treatment overall.

        Why This Matters for You

        Reduced Chair Time: The efficient 2-in-1 system means your appointments are quicker without sacrificing thoroughness.

        Enhanced Comfort: Temperature-controlled water (25°C to 40°C) and 12 adjustable power levels ensure a gentle experience tailored to your sensitivity.

        Implant & Orthodontic Friendly: Whether you have implants, braces, or other dental work, the PT-B is designed to clean effectively without causing damage.

        Our Commitment to Comfort

        The Woodpecker PT-B is just one example of our commitment to your comfort. At Tooth to Tooth, we also use small LED lights instead of the harsh overhead dental lights common in traditional practices. This means:

        • No blinding lights shining in your eyes

          • A more relaxed, spa-like atmosphere

            • Less anxiety during your appointment

            Experience the Difference

            At Tooth to Tooth, we believe that excellent dental hygiene shouldn't come at the cost of your comfort. The Woodpecker PT-B helps us deliver on that promise.
