Professional teeth cleaning near Twickenham — removes plaque, tartar and surface staining for healthier gums and a brighter smile. From £68.
Professional teeth scaling and polishing removes the plaque and hardened tartar that daily brushing and flossing cannot shift — protecting your gums, freshening your breath and leaving your teeth noticeably smoother and cleaner.
Scaling uses specialist instruments to remove calculus (hardened tartar) from the tooth surface and just below the gumline. Calculus cannot be removed by brushing alone — it bonds to the tooth surface and, if left, causes gum disease and bone loss. Scaling is the essential first step in any hygiene appointment.
After scaling, your hygienist uses a rotating rubber cup with a mild polishing paste to remove surface staining from tea, coffee, wine and tobacco and to smooth the tooth surface, making it harder for plaque to reattach. Your teeth will feel noticeably cleaner and look slightly brighter after polishing.
Most patients benefit from a professional clean every 6 months. Patients with a history of gum disease, heavy staining or a high rate of tartar build-up may be recommended every 3–4 months. Your hygienist will advise the right schedule for you.
