Interdental Cleaning in South Kensington

Elevate Your Oral Hygiene with Expert Interdental Care

Brushing twice a day is vital—but it only cleans about 60% of your tooth surfaces. The spaces between your teeth, known as interdental areas, are often missed—and that’s where plaque and food debris love to hide.

At South Kensington Dental Clinic, we provide professional interdental cleaning as part of our comprehensive hygiene care. Whether you struggle with flossing, have braces, or just want to ensure a deeper clean, we’re here to help keep those in-between spaces healthy and spotless.

Let us take your oral hygiene to the next level.

What Is Interdental Cleaning?

Interdental cleaning refers to the removal of plaque and food particles from the areas between your teeth that a toothbrush can’t reach. While at-home tools like floss and interdental brushes are helpful, they often miss buildup—especially if teeth are crowded or restorations are present.

At our South Kensington clinic, we use professional-grade tools and techniques to clean these tight spaces gently yet thoroughly, helping you avoid:

  • Gum disease (gingivitis and periodontitis)
  • Bad breath (halitosis)
  • Decay between teeth
  • Plaque and tartar build-up
  • Tooth staining

Our expert hygienists ensure every surface of your teeth is clean—including the ones you can’t see.

Freshen your smile from every angle.

Why Is Interdental Cleaning So Important?

Even the best toothbrush can’t reach between your teeth completely. Without effective cleaning in these areas, bacteria and plaque can thrive, leading to inflammation, cavities, and bone loss.

Key benefits of interdental cleaning:

  • Prevents bleeding gums and gum recession
  • Reduces the risk of periodontal disease
  • Helps control bad breath
  • Improves the effectiveness of brushing and flossing
  • Supports the health of restorations, implants, and braces
  • Contributes to overall health, reducing the risk of systemic inflammation

It’s one of the most overlooked yet essential parts of a proper oral hygiene routine.
