HEALTHY TEETH IN EVERYDAY LIFE
Even with careful oral hygiene, plaque builds up in hard-to-reach areas as part of everyday life. A professional dental cleaning allows these areas to be thoroughly cleaned and helps reduce potential risks at an early stage.
Many patients appreciate not only the fresh feeling after the treatment, but also the peace of mind that comes with regular preventive care. Professional teeth cleaning supports the health of your teeth and gums and helps to remove bacterial plaque at an early stage. At our dental practice in Dresden, professional teeth cleaning is carried out carefully, gently and tailored to your individual dental situation.
MODERN DENTAL CARE
A professional dental cleaning helps to remove bacterial plaque, biofilm and tartar at an early stage, thereby reducing the risk of tooth decay, gum inflammation and periodontitis.
Daily oral hygiene is often not sufficient, particularly in hard-to-reach areas. Even with dental floss and mouthwash, there are still areas where bacteria can accumulate. Regular professional teeth cleaning therefore not only supports dental health but also contributes to a pleasant feeling in the mouth and well-maintained teeth.
Many patients opt for regular professional teeth cleaning to keep their teeth healthy in the long term and to avoid more extensive treatment wherever possible.
MODERN TECHNOLOGY
For professional teeth cleaning, we use a modern, air-powered tooth polishing system. This allows biofilm, discolouration and fresh plaque to be removed particularly gently. The cleaning and polishing are carried out in a single step. This often reduces the need for uncomfortable scraping of the teeth with instruments. Many patients therefore find the treatment pleasant and gentle. The procedure is suitable for natural teeth as well as implants, crowns and other restorations.
Further information, including example videos, can be found, for example, on the EMS website.
After a professional dental clean, many patients particularly appreciate the smooth, fresh feeling on their teeth. At the same time, they feel confident that they have done something beneficial for their long-term dental health.
“After the treatment, my teeth always feel pleasantly smooth and clean. At the same time, I have the satisfying feeling that I’m doing something for my long-term dental health.”
— Claudia K. (48), patient
COSTS AND GRANTS
The cost of a professional dental clean-up is around 125 euros, depending on the extent of the treatment and the individual’s dental condition. Many statutory health insurance funds subsidise professional dental clean-ups or cover part of the costs.
Depending on your insurance policy, patients may be reimbursed
up to 60 euros or more.
Please check with your health insurance provider about any subsidies available before your treatment. We’re happy to assist you with any questions regarding billing. Payment is conveniently made by invoice. This allows sufficient time for any reimbursement from your health insurance provider.
The treatment usually lasts about 60 minutes.
The treatment does not usually cause any pain. Our team works carefully and as gently as possible. We take particular care with sensitive areas.
Stains caused by coffee, tea, red wine or nicotine can often be visibly reduced.
The costs depend on the individual treatment required and your personal dental situation. Many health insurance providers contribute towards the costs.
Many statutory health insurance funds subsidise professional dental cleanings, either partially or in full.
After the treatment, we recommend that you do not eat anything for at least an hour to allow the fluoride varnish to work effectively. Where possible, you should avoid foods and drinks that stain the teeth for a few hours.
No. Removing tartar is no substitute for a professional dental cleaning. During a professional dental cleaning, hard-to-reach areas are also cleaned and the teeth are thoroughly looked after.

Regular dental cleanings help to keep your teeth and gums healthy in the long term and to detect any changes at an early stage. We support you with modern preventive care, gentle treatment and care tailored to your personal situation.
