More about this care
Cleaning is part of gum health
Cleaning is not only cosmetic. It can help manage plaque and support gum health, especially when gums bleed, feel inflamed or are harder to clean well at home.
Staining, freshness and confidence
A clean can help with surface staining and freshness, but the appointment should also look for the reasons deposits, bleeding or bad breath are happening.
When assessment matters first
If there is pain, swelling, loose teeth or persistent bleeding, the appointment should clarify the cause rather than treating cleaning as the only goal.
Cleaning should fit into a broader understanding of your gum health and maintenance needs.

Common questions
Common questions
Is teeth cleaning the same as a check-up?
No. Cleaning focuses on removing deposits and supporting maintenance. A check-up assesses teeth, gums and changes that may need attention.
Should I book cleaning if my gums bleed?
Bleeding gums are a reason to book, but the appointment should also assess why the gums are bleeding.
Can cleaning whiten my teeth?
Cleaning can remove some surface stains, but it is different from whitening. The right option depends on the cause of the colour change.
Can teeth cleaning help with bad breath?
It may help when bad breath is linked with plaque, calculus or gum inflammation, but the appointment should also assess other possible dental causes.
Will teeth cleaning be uncomfortable?
Comfort varies depending on gum inflammation, sensitivity and the amount of build-up. Tell the dentist if you are sensitive so the appointment can be managed carefully.
Is cleaning enough if I have gum disease?
Not always. Gum disease may need a more detailed gum assessment, targeted cleaning, home-care changes and review rather than treating it as a routine clean only.
How often should I book teeth cleaning?
The right interval depends on gum health, plaque build-up, bleeding, staining, dental history and how easy your teeth are to clean at home.
