TEETH CLEANING IN DUBAI
Teeth Cleaning at Al Manara Specialized Medical Center – Dubai
Professional teeth cleaning gives you a brighter smile, enhances your attractiveness and self-confidence, and makes your presence more noticeable during conversations. To maintain healthy, beautiful teeth, it’s essential to follow a proper oral hygiene routine and schedule regular dental check-ups.
Oral hygiene is a vital part of personal care, as it reflects your image in social settings and contributes significantly to your overall appearance.
Neglecting dental hygiene leads to the accumulation of food and drink residues, which form hardened layers called dental plaque—difficult to remove and potentially harmful if left untreated, as they can cause tooth decay and gum disease.
At Al Manara Specialized Medical Center in Dubai, we offer advanced teeth cleaning sessions using the latest technology and modern equipment—ensuring comfort, efficiency, and long-lasting oral health.
Teeth Cleaning Methods
1. At-Home Teeth Cleaning
Maintaining oral hygiene at home is essential. Here are common methods used:
● Toothbrush and Fluoride Toothpaste
This is the most widely used method. It’s important to choose a soft-bristled brush to avoid gum damage and a toothpaste that contains fluoride, which helps prevent cavities.
Dentists recommend brushing twice daily for no more than two minutes each time.
● Dental Floss
Dental floss is used to remove food debris stuck between teeth where a toothbrush can’t reach. It should be used gently once a day by sliding it between the teeth and moving it back and forth.
● Miswak (Natural Tooth Stick)
Taken from the Arak tree, miswak is rich in natural fibers and antibacterial compounds. It can be used without toothpaste and is known to strengthen gums and protect against inflammation.
● Hydrogen Peroxide and Baking Soda
This natural whitening mix can be found in pharmacies. When mixed into a paste, it can be applied to the toothbrush and gently brushed on the teeth. Leave it on for 1–2 minutes, then rinse. Use no more than twice a week.

Teeth Cleaning Procedure at Al Manara Specialized Medical Center – Dubai
During the session, the dentist uses a professional-grade toothpaste and an electric toothbrush to thoroughly clean the teeth. You may hear some unusual sounds that feel slightly uncomfortable, but they are a normal part of the cleaning process.
The toothpaste used in the clinic contains a strong formula that is not recommended for home use, as it may lead to enamel erosion if used improperly. Following the cleaning, dental floss is applied to ensure that no tartar or debris remains between the teeth.
As a final step, the patient is given a glass of water mixed with fluoride to rinse the mouth—this strengthens the enamel and helps protect against erosion and decay.
