A professional teeth cleaning, or 'scale and polish', is the most effective way to remove built-up plaque and tartar, keeping your gums and teeth healthy. At Dentalays, we offer this essential service at a highly affordable cost, making it the perfect addition to your check-up or other dental treatments in Turkey.
Explore our gallery to see the immediate results of a professional scale and polish-healthier gums, brighter teeth, and a completely refreshed smile.
The cost of teeth cleaning in Turkey is exceptionally low compared to the UK, Europe, or the USA. Most patients are surprised to find that a professional scale and polish from a top-tier clinic costs 70-80% less than at their dentist back home, making it an easy decision to add to any treatment plan.
| Procedure | Average Cost in UK/USA | Average Cost in Turkey |
|---|---|---|
| Professional Teeth Cleaning | £100 - £190 | £40 - £70 |

A professional teeth cleaning, also known as a scale and polish or prophylaxis, is a routine preventive procedure. Even with excellent brushing and flossing, sticky plaque quickly hardens into a substance called tartar (or calculus). This hard deposit cannot be removed at home.
A dental hygienist uses special tools to remove all traces of plaque and tartar from the surfaces of your teeth and just at the gumline. This procedure is the single most important step in preventing gum disease (gingivitis), cavities, and bad breath.
Your teeth cleaning appointment is fast, simple, and comfortable.
First, the hygienist will examine your mouth to check for any signs of inflammation or cavities.
This is the process of plaque and tartar removal. We use an ultrasonic scaler, which vibrates at a high frequency to gently and effectively break down hard tartar deposits. Hand scalers may also be used for fine-tuning.
Once the teeth are completely free of tartar, the hygienist uses a slow-speed rotary brush with a special gritty paste called prophylaxis paste. This polishes the teeth, making the surfaces smooth and hindering future plaque from sticking.
A final floss and rinse remove any remaining debris, leaving your mouth feeling incredibly clean and fresh.
This is a very important distinction:
This is a preventive procedure. It cleans tartar and plaque from above and at the gumline. It is for patients with generally healthy gums.
This is a treatment for active gum disease. It involves cleaning tartar from below the gumline, from the pockets that have formed around the tooth roots. This procedure often requires local anaesthesia.
Our dentist will advise which procedure is right for you.
Patients often confuse these two, but they have very different goals:
We recommend always having a teeth cleaning before a whitening procedure for the best results.
No, a standard teeth cleaning (scale and polish) should not hurt. You will feel vibrations from the ultrasonic scaler and some minor pressure. If you have very sensitive gums, you may feel slight discomfort, but it is not a painful procedure.
The entire appointment is very fast, typically lasting between 30 and 45 minutes.
For most patients, we recommend a professional teeth cleaning every 6 months. This prevents tartar from building up to a level that can cause gum disease.
It will make them brighter. The procedure removes all the dark or yellow surface stains from coffee, tea, red wine, and tobacco. This reveals your natural, clean tooth shade. However, it is not a "teeth whitening" (bleaching) procedure.
The cost of teeth cleaning in Turkey (scale and polish) is very low, generally ranging from £40 to £70. This is a fraction of the price you would pay in the UK, where it can easily cost £80 to £190.
In dentistry, high-resolution photographs are taken to evaluate the patient’s existing tooth structure and facial aesthetics. These photos are used to document and analyze the condition, color, and shape of the teeth and their harmony with the patient’s face.
Why is it important? Professional photographs help dentists and lab technicians plan the restoration process and achieve ideal aesthetic results.
5D scanning technology allows for highly precise digital scanning of teeth and oral structures. This technology goes beyond traditional 3D scans by capturing additional information such as color, texture, and movement.
Why is it important? 5D scanning enables the creation of detailed digital models of teeth, allowing for more accurate and personalized restorations. This accelerates the treatment process and provides a more comfortable experience for the patient.
Special dental burs are used for shaping teeth with minimal preparation and for the precise placement of restorations. These burs are high-precision and sharp instruments.
Dental laboratories equipped with advanced technology play a key role in the production of restorations. These labs use CAD/CAM systems, high-precision manufacturing devices, and biocompatible materials.

Tooth Cleaning Real Customer Reviews
Real experiences, real smile
Wow !!! I’ve literally just had my new smile, I’m over the moon! Had a lot of work done to get the smile I’ve wanted for years but the whole team at Dentalays have been amazing! Can’t thank them enough. Every visit I was made to feel relaxed, informed of everything that was going to take place (most of which through a brilliant translator, who was with my every step of the way) I’d highly recommend Dentalays if you’re thinking about cosmetic treatments.
Dentalays Clinic is like home!!! Not only are our smiles beautiful and important to the entire staff! But who we are and what kind of people we are! I felt at home! Very warm atmosphere! In such a short time I got to know each of them very well! We are not just clients there, but they give everyone a lot of warmth and care! They want to get to know us. Which for me is very beautiful! Being there you will not lack anything! No matter how difficult the procedure you are going through, you receive a lot of support and care! Another thing that is important to me is that each of them does it with passion. The entire procedure must be done perfectly, every imperfection is corrected! We do not feel like a piggy bank! Because for them money is really secondary! The most important thing for the clinic is our well-being and health and satisfaction with the procedure performed! Nothing is done in a hurry and without discussing it with you or the Doctor! I loved these people and I know that I will go back there to spend some time with them! They are my second home and I know that I can always count on them! There are few people with such a good heart these days!
DENTALAYS I love you! Thank you for everything and I miss you already! Now I know that with a smile like the one you gave me I will find my HUSBAND 😂
See you soon ❤️❤️❤️
