Cleaning Effect: The cleaning effect of Ulticlean Prophylaxis Powder PERIO PLUS was tested in comparison to commercially available powders. For this purpose, the removal of dental plaque was simulated. The tests were carried out with a commercially available powder jet device. (Airflow handy 2+, EMS Electro Medical Systems SA, Switzerland). Ulticlean Prophylaxis Powder PERIO PLUS and comparison powders were blasted onto a coated PEEK plate. The areas (1 cm x 1 cm) were treated with the respective powders until the coating was completely removed from the surface. The time required for cleaning the area was measured. To account for statistical variations, each experiment was repeated 10 times. The cleaning effect was assigned the value 10 to the sodium hydrogen carbonate powder with a particle diameter of 40 μm, as in the previous experiment. The calculated times were normalised to the value 10. The higher the score, the better the cleaning performance (see Figure 4). With a value of 17, Ulticlean Prophylaxis Powder PERIO PLUS showed the fastest and most effective cleaning performance compared to the tested powder!
