Summary
The purpose of the study was to establish a professional oral hygiene regimen using low-frequency ultrasound for patients with aligners. 42 adult patients with aligners were observed for a year. The study established the optimal modes for the combined use of ultrasonic cleaning and the use of Air flow technology for patients with aligners:
1. Before starting treatment: cleaning with a dental ultrasonic scaler (with a solution of neutral 2% sodium fluoride mouth rinse) in combination with Air flow abrasive technology for final cleansing;
2. Once a quarter – cleaning with a dental ultrasonic scaler (with a solution of 2% sodium fluoride for mouth rinse) in combination with Air flow abrasive technology – 3 times a year.

Keywords: aligners, low-frequency ultrasound, oral hygiene, Air flow technologies.
