Bright, Healthy Teeth — Starting with a Deep Professional Clean
Even with daily brushing and flossing, some areas of your mouth are hard to reach. Over time, plaque and tartar build up on teeth and below the gumline — leading to discoloration, bad breath, and even gum disease.
At Dentist Istanbul, our professional teeth cleaning (prophylaxis) service removes these deposits safely and effectively, leaving your teeth smooth, fresh, and healthy.
What Is Professional Teeth Cleaning?
Professional teeth cleaning, also known as dental prophylaxis, is a preventive treatment performed by a dentist or hygienist to remove:
- Plaque: a sticky film of bacteria that forms daily on teeth
- Tartar (calculus): hardened plaque that cannot be removed by brushing
- Stains: caused by coffee, tea, wine, or smoking
This treatment not only keeps your smile clean and attractive — it also helps prevent gum inflammation, cavities, and enamel erosion.
Why Regular Cleanings Are Important
Brushing and flossing at home are essential, but they can’t remove hardened deposits completely. Without professional cleaning:
- Bacteria can build up under the gums
- Gums may become inflamed (gingivitis)
- Plaque may harden into tartar, leading to periodontitis
- Enamel can weaken, causing tooth sensitivity or decay
Recommendation: Schedule a professional cleaning every 6 months — or every 3–4 months if you have gum issues or dental restorations.
Our Cleaning Treatments
At Dentist Istanbul, we offer two main cleaning options depending on your needs and preferences:
Scaling & Polishing
This is the classic, essential professional cleaning.
- Scaling: Removes tartar and bacterial deposits from the teeth and gum line using ultrasonic and manual tools.
- Polishing: Smooths the tooth surface, removing minor stains and helping prevent new plaque buildup.
After this treatment, your teeth feel cleaner, and your gums appear healthier and tighter.
💨 2. Airflow Cleaning (Stain Removal & Deep Polishing)
For patients who want an extra level of freshness and brightness, Airflow cleaning is the perfect choice.
It uses a gentle jet of air, warm water, and fine powder particles to remove:
- Soft plaque biofilm
- Deep stains from coffee, tea, or smoking
- Bacteria in hard-to-reach areas
Airflow is non-invasive, pain-free, and gives an immediate whitening effect by restoring your teeth’s natural color — without bleaching.
What to Expect During Your Appointment
- Initial Examination – The dentist checks your teeth and gums for signs of inflammation or buildup.
- Scaling & Airflow Cleaning – Plaque, tartar, and stains are gently removed.
- Polishing – Teeth are polished for a smooth and clean finish.
- Fluoride Application (optional) – Strengthens enamel and protects against future decay.
- Home Care Guidance – Personalized advice on brushing, flossing, and oral hygiene products.
The whole process usually takes 30–45 minutes and is completely comfortable for most patients.
