A scale and polish, otherwise known as a hygiene appointment, involves professionally cleaning the teeth and gums by a member of our dental hygiene team. By attending a dental hygienist, we are able to remove any staining, plaque and tartar buildup, which cannot be removed by regular brushing alone. Our hygienists then polish the teeth using a soft rubber cup and a gritty-like paste.

Seapoint Clinic's state of the art dental suites and equipment ensure our patients receive the highest level of care possible. Our team of hygienists regularly update their skills and knowledge, as part of their continuing professional development. 

We can even check whether your PRSI contributions entitle to one scale and polish per annum, just contact a member of our customer service team to find out more!
