Want beautiful, bright, clean, and healthy teeth? Your smile is the first thing people notice, so beautiful clean teeth are essential to the way we look and feel about ourselves and how others see us. Everyone tries to maintain good oral hygiene – we regularly brush, floss, use mouthwash, but sometimes that is not enough to remove the toughest plaque deposits and sometimes may even lead to other dental issues.

Hygiene visits in many ways are the most important element of your dental treatment. It helps to prevent dental problems and is mainly carried out to get rid of dental plaque and tartar (calculus) which are the two main causes of caries (tooth decay) and gum disease. At your oral hygiene appointment, the dentist will clean your teeth, using an ultrasonic scaler or hand scaler to remove the (dental plaque), which is a soft white looking deposit that forms on the surface of teeth. It forms when bacteria and germs combine with food and saliva. The ultrasonic scaler also removes hard calculus build-up (tartar) which is a hardened calcified plaque that sticks firmly to the teeth – this is the material that no matter how hard you try to remove at home from your teeth won’t budge! Each session takes approximately 30 minutes or longer depending on which package is required.
At NW1 Dental Care, our team of dentists and dental hygienists in London offer a range of professional teeth cleaning packages using various scaling and polishing procedures to remove buildup from both under and above your gumline. These not only help maintain good oral hygiene but also brighten up your pearly whites!

Our fee guide provides a general indication of the prices charged for our most popular dental hygiene (teeth cleaning) treatments. Dental Hygiene costs may vary on an individual basis, depending on the plan you choose i.e time taken, materials, and techniques used, but this will always be discussed with you in advance by your treating dentist. If you have any questions about our fees, please feel free to ask!
No, teeth cleaning doesn’t damage teeth. In fact, it helps in removing tartar and other particles that might be damaging your teeth.
Yes, teeth cleaning helps in removing stains and brighten your teeth a little bit. However, to get the best whitening result you will need professional teeth whitening procedure if you need to whiten your smile. It’s best to have both cleaning and whitening to get the best results.
Your dentist may recommend that you should visit the hygienist regularly to help prevent any tooth decay or gum disease which is the leading cause of tooth loss in adults. The frequency of visits depends on your clinical needs and also your personal desire to have the teeth scale and polished. Most of our patients normally have routine teeth cleaning visits every three to six months.
Airflow procedure is a hygiene treatment that uses non-abrasive technology to remove persistent stains on your teeth, plaque, and discolouration using a combination of water, compressed air, and fine powder particles. It is used to access all those hard to reach areas that can’t be done using traditional scaling techniques.
It’s always advised to maintain good oral hygiene habits by regularly brushing (using manual or electric toothbrush), flossing and using mouthwash. However, in spite of all these efforts we still cant clean 100% of plaque which hardens over time and this hardened tartar can’t be brushed off and would require you to visit the dental clinic.
Bleeding gums are caused by inadequate plaque removal which contains millions of bacteria. As the plaque hardens it sets into the gaps between the teeth and gums. The gums become inflamed and then prone to bleeding especially when pressure is applied during brushing or flossing. Bleeding gums are the most common signs of gum disease.

Testimonials
Best dentist experience!
I am usually very anxious when going to the dentist but doctor Ioana made me feel at ease and comfortable at all times. She takes time explaining every procedure and makes sure it is all painless. All staff are kind and professional! I highly recommend this practice.
Mihaela Croitor, London
Professional and polite. Answered phone immediately for appointment, and even called me back to book earlier when they got an opening. Cleaning done by Dentist (though I’m fine with a trained Assistant), and she was super nice, informative, and great “bedside manner”. Has occasional promotions for things (whitening, hygiene) and now even has monthly plan starting at £15! Quick walk from the metro in a nice area.
Christopher Drew, London

Nagea Begum, London
Had an absolutely amazing experience at NW1 Dental care, I hadn’t had a professional clean in years and had let my teeth get into quite a state. I had been very anxious about seeing a dentist after having bad experiences in the past but I bit the bullet after seeing an ad for NW1 on instagram then reading some positive reviews. My dentist Ioanna was lovely and chatty and talked me through everything, gave me an immaculate clean and offered some advice on products and methods for keeping better care of my teeth all without condescension. It was more like being at a spa than being at the dentist, I had never had such a positive experience with a dentist before. 100% would recommend.
Bluebell Wooi, London
Great! Amazing and friendly staff, 10/10 recommend!
Jakob Schröcksnadel, London
Literally, the best dental clinic in the UK (probably even the world). I cannot express in words how amazing NW1 dental care and its staff are. From the lovely receptionists to the highly qualified dentists and dental assistants, this place is fantastic. I wish I had found them before. The whole team is extremely welcoming, warm and caring. They have always gone the extra mile to ensure that you feel comfortable and that all your queries have been answered. Unlike, many other practices out there, NW1 dental care actually CARES about its clients. As well as, provides the best offers and five-star treatments.
Will definitely be recommending all my friends and family to pay them a visit!!!
Tanya Sandhu, London
All measures have been taken to make attending appointments as safe as possible, which has allowed me to get issues fixed before they get worse. All the staff are friendly and I love my dentist (Dr Hudda). I am also impressed because a few years ago, my mother was visiting and she broke a tooth and within an hour of it breaking, they fit her in and fixed it.
Bec Hill, London
I want to thank Dr Anima for all her hard work, she has made my teeth look amazing. I can smile without being embarrassed of my teeth. Anima is very professional, friendly and gives the best advice of care and how to keep teeth clean for a lifetime. I would recommend Anima to anyone who wants amazing teeth with that Colgate smile.
