Our Preventive Dentistry Services
Professional Dental Cleaning — £50
A professional scale and polish removes plaque and tartar (calculus) that cannot be eliminated by brushing alone. Our hygienists use ultrasonic scalers and hand instruments to clean above and below the gum line, followed by polishing to remove surface stains. The NHS recommends professional cleaning every 6–12 months to maintain gum health.
Comprehensive Dental Examination
Every visit to Persona Smile begins with a thorough check-up including:
- Visual examination of all teeth, gums, tongue, and soft tissues
- Digital X-rays to detect hidden decay, bone loss, or abnormalities
- Periodontal assessment — measuring gum pocket depths to screen for gum disease
- Oral cancer screening — checking for suspicious lesions or tissue changes
- Bite analysis — identifying signs of grinding, clenching, or TMJ issues
Night Guards — £50
If you grind or clench your teeth (bruxism), a custom-fitted night guard protects your teeth from wear, fractures, and sensitivity. At Persona Smile, night guards are fabricated in our in-house laboratory for a precise, comfortable fit.
Fluoride Treatment & Sealants
Professional fluoride application strengthens enamel and reverses early-stage decay. Dental sealants provide a protective barrier on the chewing surfaces of back teeth, which are particularly vulnerable to cavities.
Why Preventive Care Saves You Money Long-Term
Investing in regular preventive care dramatically reduces the need for expensive restorative treatments. Here is a comparison of prevention versus treatment costs:
| Preventive Action | Cost | Prevents | Treatment Cost If Ignored |
|---|---|---|---|
| Regular cleaning (2× year) | £100/year | Gum disease, tartar build-up | Gum grafting £170+ |
| Early filling | £50 | Root infection, tooth loss | Root canal £70 + crown £95–£150 |
| Night guard | £50 | Cracked teeth, TMJ damage | Crowns £130+ per tooth |
| Gum disease treatment | £50–£100 | Tooth loosening, bone loss | Implants £355–£700 per tooth |
The American Dental Association emphasises that every £1 spent on prevention saves up to £50 in future treatment costs.

Preventive Care for Dental Tourism Patients
Many patients visiting Persona Smile for cosmetic or restorative treatments also take advantage of our preventive services. Adding a professional cleaning to your treatment visit ensures your teeth and gums are in optimal condition before and after procedures like veneers, crowns, or implants.
Home Care Tips from Our Dental Team
Between professional visits, maintaining excellent oral hygiene at home is essential. The British Dental Association recommends:
- Brush twice daily for two minutes using fluoride toothpaste and a soft-bristled brush
- Floss daily or use interdental brushes to clean between teeth where your brush cannot reach
- Limit sugary snacks and drinks — sugar feeds bacteria that cause decay and gum disease
- Don’t smoke — tobacco significantly increases the risk of gum disease, oral cancer, and implant failure
- Replace your toothbrush every 3 months or when bristles become frayed
- Use mouthwash — an antibacterial rinse provides additional protection, especially after meals
If you experience bleeding gums, persistent bad breath, tooth sensitivity, or pain, don’t wait — book a consultation with our team for prompt assessment and treatment.

How much does a dental cleaning cost at Persona Smile?
Professional dental cleaning (scale and polish) costs £50 at Persona Smile. This includes ultrasonic scaling, hand scaling, and polishing. See our full price list.
How often should I have a dental check-up?
The NHS recommends dental check-ups every 6–24 months depending on your risk level. Most adults benefit from a check-up and cleaning every 6–12 months. Your dentist will advise on the ideal frequency for your needs.
What happens during a professional cleaning?
Our hygienist uses ultrasonic instruments to break up hardened tartar, then hand instruments to clean below the gum line. Your teeth are then polished to remove surface stains. The entire process takes 30–45 minutes and is gentle and comfortable.
Do I need a night guard?
If you grind or clench your teeth — especially while sleeping — a night guard is essential. Signs include jaw pain, headaches, worn tooth surfaces, and cracked or chipped teeth. A custom night guard (£50) prevents further damage and protects existing dental work like crowns and veneers.
Can professional cleaning whiten my teeth?
A professional clean removes surface stains from coffee, tea, and tobacco, which can make teeth appear brighter. For deeper whitening results, we recommend professional teeth whitening (£170) after your cleaning appointment.
Is preventive dentistry important before cosmetic treatment?
Absolutely. Healthy teeth and gums are essential prerequisites for successful cosmetic results. We always recommend a thorough cleaning and examination before placing veneers, crowns, or implants to ensure the best possible outcomes.
