Frequently Asked Questions
How much does professional teeth cleaning in China cost?
Our professional ultrasonic scaling in Beijing costs $69, with completely transparent pricing and no hidden fees. This includes a comprehensive oral exam, ultrasonic plaque/tartar removal, and high-gloss polishing — typically 70-80% less than equivalent care in the US or UK.
Is teeth cleaning at a Beijing clinic safe for foreigners?
Yes. Our partner clinics in Beijing use international-standard sterilization protocols and globally recognized equipment. The ultrasonic scaler tips are single-use, and all instruments are autoclaved between patients per WHO infection-control guidelines.
What does the 60-minute teeth cleaning actually include?
Three steps: (1) Comprehensive oral exam to assess gum health and plaque levels, (2) Ultrasonic scaling using high-frequency vibration to gently remove calculus and tea/tobacco stains, (3) High-gloss professional polishing for a smooth, brighter finish. Total time: ~60 minutes.
Are the dentists doing the cleaning qualified specialists?
Yes. All cleanings are performed by licensed dental professionals at our partner clinics, with formal training in periodontal care. We only work with internationally accredited or top-tier Chinese dental facilities.
Will the dentist or assistant speak English during my cleaning?
Most of our partner clinics have English-speaking staff. For complex consultations or post-cleaning recommendations, we strongly recommend our optional medical translation service to ensure 100% accuracy.
How long does a professional teeth cleaning take from start to finish?
About 60 minutes total — perfect for tourists with limited time. Same-day service is typically available with a confirmed booking. Plan to arrive 15 minutes early for check-in and oral exam.
Is professional teeth cleaning safe during pregnancy or for seniors?
Ultrasonic scaling is generally safe for healthy adults including seniors. For pregnant patients, the second trimester is preferred. Always disclose any medical conditions, pacemakers, or pregnancy at booking so we can advise on the safest approach.
What if I have sensitive teeth or gum issues — can I still get cleaning?
Yes. The initial oral exam identifies any sensitivity or gum disease. The dentist will adjust the ultrasonic intensity, and may recommend numbing gel for severe sensitivity. Severe gum disease may require periodontal treatment — flagged before scaling begins.
Can I get teeth cleaning during a 240-hour visa-free transit in Beijing?
Yes. The full appointment fits in one morning or afternoon, leaving plenty of time for sightseeing within your 240-hour (10-day) window. Many nationalities can also enter China visa-free for up to 30 days. We recommend booking at least 48 hours before your arrival to secure your preferred time slot.
What should I avoid eating or drinking right after the cleaning?
Avoid coffee, tea, red wine, and highly pigmented foods (curry, beetroot) for 24 hours — your teeth absorb stains more easily right after polishing. Cold or very hot drinks may cause brief sensitivity. Normal eating resumes the same day.
