Even with excellent brushing and flossing, plaque accumulates in areas your toothbrush cannot reach. Within 24 to 48 hours, this plaque hardens into tartar, a calcite deposit that sticks firmly to your teeth and can only be removed with professional instruments. Left untreated, this buildup leads to gum inflammation, bad breath, and eventually gum disease, which causes more tooth loss in adults than decay.
Professional teeth cleaning removes these deposits before they cause damage. Using ultrasonic scalers and hand instruments, our hygienists carefully clean each tooth surface, paying particular attention to the areas along and below the gum line where bacteria thrive. Your teeth are then polished to remove surface stains from tea, coffee, red wine, and other everyday causes, leaving them smooth and bright.
For patients with stubborn staining or those wanting a deeper clean, we offer airflow therapy. This advanced technique uses a controlled jet of air, water, and fine powder particles to gently blast away stains and biofilm from even the most difficult areas, including around orthodontic brackets, implants, and between teeth. The result is a thorough, comfortable clean that leaves your mouth feeling exceptionally fresh.
We recommend professional cleaning every six months for most patients. Those with a history of gum problems, dental implants, or orthodontic appliances may benefit from more frequent visits. Regular cleaning not only keeps your smile looking its best but also allows us to monitor your oral health and catch potential problems early.
We offer flexible payment plans to help spread the cost of your treatment.
Our hygienists are dedicated professionals who take time to clean thoroughly and educate you on maintaining results at home. They use gentle techniques to ensure your comfort while delivering a comprehensive clean that reaches every surface and protects your long-term oral health.
We combine traditional scaling with modern airflow technology for the most effective results. Ultrasonic scalers efficiently remove tartar with minimal discomfort, while airflow treatment tackles stubborn staining and reaches areas that conventional cleaning cannot. This combination ensures a thorough, comfortable experience.
We believe prevention is better than cure. Regular professional cleaning helps you avoid costly and invasive treatments in the future. Our hygienists also provide personalised advice on brushing technique, interdental cleaning, and product recommendations tailored to your specific needs.
Most patients benefit from professional cleaning every six months. However, if you have gum disease, wear braces, have dental implants, smoke, or are prone to tartar buildup, we may recommend appointments every three to four months. Your hygienist will advise on the ideal frequency based on your individual oral health.
Professional cleaning is generally comfortable for most patients. You may feel some vibration from the ultrasonic scaler and slight pressure during the procedure. If you have sensitive teeth or inflamed gums, you might experience mild discomfort, but our hygienists can apply numbing gel or adjust their technique to keep you comfortable.
Professional cleaning removes external deposits like plaque, tartar, and surface stains, restoring your teeth to their natural colour. Teeth whitening changes the internal shade of your teeth, making them lighter than their natural colour. For best whitening results, we recommend having a professional clean first to remove any buildup.
Airflow is an advanced cleaning technique that uses a jet of compressed air, water, and fine powder particles to remove stains, plaque, and biofilm from your teeth. It’s particularly effective for stubborn staining from coffee, tea, red wine, and tobacco, and is gentler than traditional polishing. It’s also excellent for cleaning around braces, implants, and other dental work.
Brushing and flossing are essential but cannot remove all plaque, especially in hard-to-reach areas between teeth and below the gum line. Once plaque hardens into tartar, only professional instruments can remove it. Regular professional cleaning complements your home care routine to keep your mouth truly healthy and prevent gum disease.
