What is Dental Scale and Clean?
Prophylaxis, commonly known as a dental scale and clean, is a professional and detailed procedure for maintaining optimal oral hygiene.
This treatment involves using specialised tools to meticulously remove plaque, hardened tartar (calculus), and bacteria from the surfaces of your teeth, both above and slightly below the gum line. Even with rigorous daily brushing and flossing, these unwanted deposits can build up over time in hard-to-reach areas.
As a leading dental clinic in Campbelltown, Bradbury Dental Surgery provides comprehensive prophylaxis services essential for preventing serious oral health problems and preserving the health and brilliance of your smile.

Cavity and Decay Mitigation
By meticulously removing plaque buildup—the main factor contributing to decay—we significantly mitigate your risk of developing new cavities and help maintain a healthy oral environment.
Optimal Gum Health
Meticulous cleaning below the gum line is vital for preventing irritation and infection, which directly helps avoid the onset and progression of gum disease.
Essential Prevention and Protection
Enhanced Aesthetics and Freshness
Stain Removal and Brightness
The scaling and polishing process removes surface stains caused by food, coffee, or tea, leaving your teeth immediately cleaner and brighter.
Fresh Breath Assurance
Persistent bad breath is often caused by bacteria and tartar. Removing these sources ensures long-lasting oral freshness and contributes to a more confident smile.
Sustaining Long-Term Health
Systemic Health Benefits
Maintaining a disease-free mouth is linked to better overall health, reducing systemic risks associated with untreated oral infections.
Supporting Home Care
By providing a clean starting point, the scale and clean makes your daily brushing and flossing more effective, empowering you to maintain excellent oral hygiene between visits.

Frequently Asked Questions
A scale and clean, also known as a professional dental cleaning. This is a routine dental procedure designed to remove plaque and tartar buildup from teeth, which can't always be removed by brushing and flossing alone. Scaling removes plaque and tartar, and then the dentist polishes the teeth for a smooth and clean finish to remove any remaining debris.
Yes, scaling is a crucial step during regular cleaning. In scaling, plaque and tartar from the deposits of bacteria are cleaned from above-the-gum and below-the-gum surfaces of the teeth. This is crucial to prevent gum disease and maintain oral health.
A scale and clean is between $100 and $300, with some clinics offering a check-up and clean for as low as $119. The price depends on the type of cleaning (standard versus deep clean), the location of the dental clinic, and the pricing structure of the particular clinic.
Patients may experience some discomfort, and while dentists always try to reassure patients regarding any pain, many of them contradict themselves by saying local anaesthesia is used and a patient would feel no pain, but it doesn't really hurt. Some individuals experience a scratchy or scraping sensation, while others feel numb.
Tartar, also known as dental calculus, is a hardened plaque that cannot be removed by brushing or flossing alone. Only through professional cleaning by the dentist or dental hygienist can the tartar be removed. You can prevent it with good oral hygiene or regular dental visits.
Brush your teeth twice a day for two minutes each time, using a soft-bristled toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste. Try to remove plaque and food particles from between your teeth, paying attention to the inner and outer surfaces of the gumline.
To effectively clean dentures, remove them after meals and rinse them to remove loose debris. Then, using a soft-bristle toothbrush, cleansing denture soap or mild detergent, brush gently on all surfaces, including the crevices. Lastly, let them soak overnight in a solution for denture cleaning or plain water so they do not dry out and become brittle.
Generally, a teeth cleaning appointment will last anywhere from 30 to 60 minutes. It depends on the patient's oral condition and the amount of plaque and tartar buildup. Complex cases can take longer, such as those requiring deep cleanings or affected by braces.
To effectively clean teeth with braces, you should brush and floss diligently. Specialised tools and regular dental visits ensure the health of teeth and braces. Brush after every meal, focusing on the gum line, brackets, and wires while brushing. Flossing with a threader or water irrigator is essential to cleaning between teeth and under the wire.
