Tartar is plaque that has hardened on the teeth and along the gumline. Brushing and flossing at home matter a great deal, but some areas are hard to reach on your own.

A professional clean is meant to remove those deposits with specialist instruments. Regular visits can support gum health and help us look into issues such as bad breath.

How often you need a clean varies with your gums, saliva and home care. Your dentist will suggest a review interval.

This article is general information. Your own interval is decided after an examination.

Information on this page is for general guidance. The right treatment for you is decided by your dentist after examination and any necessary tests.
