This study investigates the production of bacteraemia in dental prophylaxis by use of a commercially available air polishing device. Prophylaxis by means of the conventional rubber cup and paste method was used as a control. The study showed that air polishing can result in loss of epithelium at the gingival margin. The likelihood of a bacteraemia resulting from air polishing, in the absence of gingivitis, was less than in the group undergoing conventional prophylaxis. Although a higher number of bacteraemias was seen in the control group, the difference between the two groups was not statistically significant. Results indicate that patients who are at risk continue to require antibiotic cover.
