Professional Teeth Cleaning

A professional cleaning appointment removes the plaque, tartar and surface stains that brushing cannot, helping keep the gums healthy and the teeth looking clean and bright. At Zahnarztpraxis Sterndamm 9 the prophylaxis visit combines scaling, polishing and a fluoride finish, and is a sensible regular preventive step as well as a good foundation before whitening or aligner treatment.

Professional teeth cleaning, or prophylaxis, removes the hardened tartar (calculus) and bacterial plaque that build up over time and cannot be cleared by brushing and flossing alone. The teeth are cleaned above and just below the gumline, surface stains from coffee, tea, wine and tobacco are polished away, and the visit is finished with a fluoride application that helps strengthen the enamel and reduce sensitivity. Keeping these deposits under control supports healthier gums that bleed less, fresher breath, and earlier detection of decay or gum problems before they become more serious. At Zahnarztpraxis Sterndamm 9 a prophylaxis session is priced at 149 euro and forms part of the practice's preventive care. It pairs naturally with a routine check-up so the teeth and gums can be reviewed at the same visit, and it is routinely recommended before cosmetic treatments such as whitening or before starting Invisalign, so colour and fit are assessed on a clean surface. As a regular appointment it also helps protect the longevity of existing fillings, crowns and implants. Professional cleaning is suitable for nearly everyone; the team advises how often to return based on individual gum health and habits. German- and English-speaking staff and online booking make it easy to schedule for patients across Berlin.
