Teeth cleaning , also known as Scaling, is a very good way of maintaining your oral hygiene and preventing diseases like bad breath, gum problems and cavities. We recommend you to get a full mouth scaling and polishing atleast once in six months.
Scaling is also good for people who are regular smokers or tea and coffee drinkers. Over a period of time, you may notice nicotine stains from cigarettes or coffee or tea stains. A good cleaning would be able to remove all these stains.
Teeth cleaning usually involves passing an ultrasonic machine with a water spray over your teeth to remove plaque film or calculus and tartar deposits. This can take anywhere between half hour to one hour depending on the amount of stains or deposits.
This is usually followed by applying a special polish paste on your teeth and running a polishing brush over them to give them a smooth feel.

What to Expect During Your Teeth Cleaning Appointment
Our teeth cleaning process at Perfect Smile Dental Centre follows international standards:
1. Initial Examination: We begin with a comprehensive oral health assessment.
2. Plaque & Tartar Removal: Advanced ultrasonic scalers are used to remove plaque and tartar.
3. Deep Cleaning: We provide a thorough cleaning below the gum line.
4. Polishing: Your teeth are professionally polished for a smooth, clean finish.
5. Fluoride Treatment: An optional fluoride application is available for added protection.
6. Oral Health Education: We give you personalised recommendations for home care.
Teeth Cleaning Cost in Abu Dhabi
The cost of professional teeth cleaning depends on how much tartar has built up and whether treatment is needed below the gumline. Our pricing is set out below so you know what to expect before you book.
- Routine teeth cleaning, scaling and polishing: AED 200
- Complete oral health package, including examination: AED 350
- Deep cleaning, scaling and root planing below the gumline: AED 400
Most patients attending for regular maintenance need only routine cleaning. Deep cleaning is recommended where there are signs of gum disease, and your dentist will confirm which you need after examining you.

Signs You Need Professional Teeth Cleaning
You may need a professional teeth cleaning if you notice any of the following:
● Persistent bad breath, even with good oral hygiene
● Visible tartar buildup along your gum line
● Bleeding gums when brushing or flossing
● Tooth sensitivity or discomfort
● Stained or discoloured teeth
● It’s been more than six months since your last cleaning
How Often Should You Have Your Teeth Cleaned?
For most adults, a professional cleaning every six months alongside a routine check-up is enough to keep plaque and tartar under control.
Some patients benefit from more frequent visits, typically every three to four months, including those with a history of gum disease, smokers, patients wearing braces or other fixed orthodontic appliances, and patients with diabetes. If you are unsure which applies to you, we will recommend an interval after examining your gums at your first visit.

After Your Cleaning: How to Keep the Results
Professional cleaning removes what daily brushing cannot, but how long the results last depends on what happens afterwards. The guidance below applies to routine cleaning and to deep cleaning alike.
Patients who have had implant treatment should follow the same routine, as implants need the same professional maintenance as natural teeth.
- Some gum tenderness and mild tooth sensitivity for a day or two after cleaning is normal, particularly after deep cleaning, and settles on its own.
- Avoid very hot, very cold, and strongly coloured foods and drinks for the first 24 hours, including coffee, tea and tomato-based sauces, while the enamel resettles.
- Resume brushing twice daily with a soft brush the same evening, and clean between the teeth daily with floss or interdental brushes.
- If you smoke, staining will return faster. Reducing or stopping is the single most effective way to keep the result.
- Book your next professional cleaning within six months, or sooner if your dentist has advised a shorter interval because of gum disease.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I get dental cleaning?
It’s generally recommended to get a dental cleaning every six months. However, the right frequency can vary depending on your eating habits, oral hygiene routine, and overall dental health. Some people may benefit from more frequent cleanings—your dentist can help determine what’s best for you.
What is the difference between teeth cleaning and polishing?
Teeth cleaning refers to the removal of plaque and tartar build-up (known as scaling), while teeth polishing smooths the surface of your teeth and removes surface stains. Together, teeth cleaning and polishing improve both your dental health and appearance. At Perfect Smile Dental Centre, we offer professional teeth scaling and polishing performed by experienced dentists to ensure both your dental health and the appearance of your smile are well taken care of.
Is teeth cleaning painful?
Most patients find cleaning teeth to be comfortable and relatively pain-free. While you may feel a bit of pressure or mild sensitivity during dental polishing and scaling, we use gentle techniques to make the experience pleasant.
Can teeth cleaning remove stains and bad breath?
Yes. Routine teeth cleaning and polishing are effective in removing surface stains and eliminating bacteria that cause bad breath. It’s a key step to maintaining a fresh, clean mouth.
Is tooth scaling and polishing safe for sensitive teeth?
Absolutely. We customise our polishing and scaling teeth treatments for patients with sensitivity. Our gentle approach ensures a comfortable teeth clean and polish experience without aggravating sensitive areas.
How long does a dental cleaning appointment take?
A typical dental cleaning appointment lasts between 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the condition of your teeth and gums. This includes scaling, polishing, and a full dental check-up.
Why choose Perfect Smile Dental for teeth cleaning in Abu Dhabi?
We are committed to delivering exceptional teeth cleaning in Abu Dhabi, using modern equipment and experienced professionals. Our comprehensive dental polishing and scaling services ensure your teeth are not only clean but also well-cared for.
Is scaling and polishing done together?
Usually, yes. Scaling removes hardened plaque and tartar from the tooth surface and just below the gumline, and polishing follows immediately afterwards to smooth the enamel and lift surface staining. Polishing on its own would leave the tartar in place, which is what actually causes gum inflammation, so the two are carried out as one appointment in almost all cases.
