Due to this complexity, it is quite understandable that some people resort to a one-size-fits-all approach and treat every patient in the same way. However, as we all know, a generalised solution is only ever based on an average. A patient, on the other hand, is an individual and, consequently, cannot be treated successfully in the long term with a one-size-fits-all approach. To achieve this goal and motivate patients in the long term, prophylaxis professionals must create individualised treatment plans with needs-based methods and products. To do this, it is necessary to consider more than just the dental clinical picture and oral health status. For a start, at different ages patients have differing requirements in terms of how prophylactic treatments are performed. Other possible illnesses and allergies must also be taken into account in order to avoid contraindications. If there is a hypersensitivity, gentle and mild methods should be applied and desensitising products should also be used. The Lunos® prophylaxis system from Dürr Dental supports individualised treatment and offers a broad product portfolio that is compatible with any treatment philosophy.

Lunos® from DÜRR DENTAL does not prescribe a fixed treatment concept or one that applies to just one specific area of application. Lunos® enables trained prophylaxis professionals to decide for themselves – within the scope of medical delegation – which form of treatment should be used for each patient. For example, it may be that a powder jet treatment with the MyLunos Duo® combination device or the mobile MyLunos® powder jet handpiece with subsequent polishing is suitable for patient A. Patient B, on the other hand, is better treated with gentle polishing due to high sensitivity, while the low-pain, atraumatic Vector® ultrasonic system is used for the advanced periodontitis in patient C.

DÜRR DENTAL has always seen itself as a system provider and problem solver. This understanding and this claim is also reflected in the Lunos® brand. The Lunos® portfolio includes the new flagship MyLunos Duo® for combined powder jet and ultrasonic application, the mobile MyLunos® powder jet handpiece, the Vector® ultrasonic device, various prophy powders and prophy pastes as well as a fissure sealant and a fluoride gel. These prophylaxis products are supplemented by a prophylaxis cushion made of comfortable viscoelastic foam and a wellness cloth for improved patient comfort. The offering is rounded off with training and services for dental practices.

Lunos® from DÜRR DENTAL offers the right devices, consumables and helpful accessories for almost all the work steps required as part of a prophylaxis session. All the products are coordinated with each other so that they combine to form a complete and highly flexible system that is capable of supporting any treatment philosophy – to ensure that, at the end, we really can make smiles brighter all around.
