What it is about

Tooth decay and gum inflammation usually develop slowly and do not hurt at first. At a check-up we can spot changes before they cause symptoms.

How cleaning works

First we remove hard and soft deposits, including in places your toothbrush cannot reach. Then we polish your teeth and apply fluoride if needed.

Finally, we show you how best to look after your teeth at home and which tools suit the gaps between your teeth.

When your gums bleed

Bleeding gums are often inflamed. Left untreated, inflammation can spread to the tissues that hold the tooth in place, so it is worth making an appointment early.

Frequently asked questions

How often should I come for a check-up?

For most adults, two check-ups a year make sense. We will tell you what interval suits your teeth.

Does health insurance cover professional cleaning?

Statutory insurers pay for check-ups and for tartar removal once a year. Professional cleaning is usually paid privately. Some insurers contribute, so it is best to ask yours directly.

My gums bleed when I brush. Should I stop brushing?

No, keep brushing carefully and have the cause checked. Bleeding gums are often a sign of inflammation that can be treated.
