Teeth Cleaning & Scaling
A clean, healthy smile starts with professional care. Our gentle cleaning removes what brushing can't reach — the foundation of lasting oral health.
Why professional cleaning matters
While daily brushing and flossing are essential, they cannot remove tartar (hardened plaque) that builds up on your teeth and below the gumline. Professional cleaning removes these stubborn deposits that lead to gum disease, tooth decay, and other oral health problems.
Professional scaling reaches deep below the gumline where bacteria hide and cause damage. Regular cleanings prevent serious gum disease, freshen your breath, and keep your natural smile bright and healthy for life.
What we clean
Tartar & calculus removal
Our ultrasonic scalers break up and remove hardened tartar buildup that regular brushing cannot reach, restoring teeth to their natural surface.
Plaque elimination
We remove soft plaque buildup that harbours harmful bacteria, preventing cavities and gum disease before they start.
Stain removal
Professional polishing removes surface stains from coffee, tea, wine, and smoking, leaving your smile visibly brighter and fresher.
Below-the-gumline cleaning
Our dentists carefully scale below your gumline to remove bacteria and buildup that cause gum disease, protecting your gums and bone.
The cleaning process
Oral examination
We start by examining your teeth and gums for signs of decay, gum disease, or other issues. This helps us customise your cleaning to your specific needs.
Ultrasonic scaling
Our modern ultrasonic scaler vibrates at a frequency that breaks up tartar and calculus buildup on the tooth surface and below the gumline, gently and efficiently.
Hand scaling
For stubborn deposits and detailed work, especially below the gumline, our dentist uses hand scalers with precision and care to ensure no buildup is left behind.
Polishing
A gentle polishing paste removes any remaining surface stains and leaves your teeth feeling smooth and looking bright. Your smile will feel refreshed and clean.
Fluoride treatment
We apply a protective fluoride treatment that strengthens enamel and helps prevent cavities and sensitivity. This extra protection lasts for months.
