Prophylaxis that goes beyond teeth cleaning
Professional teeth cleaning is valuable for more than cosmetic reasons. It forms the basis for long-term dental health and a radiant smile. At F80 on Berlin’s Friedrichstraße, we take prevention a step further: our prophylaxis includes much more than professional cleaning. We understand it as the prevention of oral disease, helping keep your teeth, gums and dental restorations healthy throughout life while reducing the need for further dental treatment.
There are many good reasons to receive comprehensive preventive care from our dentists on a regular basis:
Preventing oral disease
Preserving your teeth and gums over the long term
Reducing the need for further dental treatment
Creating and maintaining a more beautiful smile
Professional teeth cleaning offers aesthetic as well as health benefits. Stains from coffee, tea and other foods and drinks are effectively removed, leaving your smile looking brighter and well cared for. Regular cleaning can also help the results of treatments such as teeth whitening last longer, while veneers retain their color.
Supporting your overall health
The three phases of F80 Signature Prophylaxis in Berlin Mitte
1. Examination and diagnosis
A highly precise 3D scanner creates a digital image of your entire dentition, allowing us to identify discoloration and signs of tooth decay, periodontitis or other concerns in detail. During a comprehensive examination, your dentist assesses the health of your teeth, gums and restorations and identifies potential problems early, before they become more extensive and require complex treatment.

Technology at F80 in Berlin: expect more from preventive care
3D Smile Scan Technology – your teeth from every angle
For precise diagnostics, our dentists in Berlin use a state-of-the-art 3D scanner to create a complete digital image of your dentition. With 3D Smile Scan Technology, we can view your teeth and gums from every angle and zoom in on fine details. This detailed visualization helps your dentist identify potential concerns early and address them specifically. We can also show you everything on a touchscreen, helping you understand the diagnosis and follow progress during treatment.
Swiss Airflow & Piezon – gentle, thorough teeth cleaning
The cleaning technology used in our Berlin practice comes from Switzerland and enables thorough, effective cleaning with a high level of comfort:
Airflow technology gently removes soft deposits and discoloration using a fine micropowder – ideal for sensitive teeth and gums.
Piezon technology uses ultrasonic vibrations to remove stubborn deposits and tartar without damaging tooth enamel.
The water is gently warmed throughout treatment to minimize sensitivity during cleaning. This is especially comfortable for patients with sensitive teeth.
At F80, technology is not an end in itself, but a tool for providing the best possible care. Our combination of precision, comfort and innovation brings a new standard to preventive dentistry. Our methods are particularly gentle on the teeth and enamel and support thorough cleaning to help prevent tooth decay, periodontitis and other dental conditions. Experience how advanced technology can support your dental health over the long term.

Frequently asked questions about teeth cleaning
Does health insurance pay for professional teeth cleaning?
In Germany, statutory health insurance generally does not cover professional teeth cleaning (PZR). However, there are some exceptions and possible forms of reimbursement:
Partial reimbursement
Some statutory health insurers offer subsidies or cover part of the cost of teeth cleaning, especially through bonus programs. These programs reward patients who attend regular preventive examinations.
Supplementary dental insurance
Private supplementary dental insurance often covers one or more professional teeth cleanings per year. If you have a policy or are considering one, it is worth checking whether this benefit is included.
Private health insurance
Depending on the plan, private health insurance generally reimburses some or all of the cost of professional teeth cleaning (PZR).
Our tip: ask your health insurer before treatment whether and to what extent professional teeth cleaning is covered. After treatment, we will be pleased to provide a detailed invoice for you to submit.
How much does professional teeth cleaning cost?
The cost of professional teeth cleaning can vary depending on the dentist, the extent of treatment and the technology used. At F80 in Berlin, our Signature Prophylaxis is an especially comprehensive, premium treatment.
We will be pleased to advise you and provide a precise cost breakdown. You can also ask your health insurer or supplementary dental insurer whether preventive care is covered in full or in part. We will of course provide a detailed invoice for submission.
Investing in your dental health and helping prevent more extensive problems and treatment is worthwhile.
How often should I have professional teeth cleaning?
The ideal frequency of professional teeth cleaning (PZR) depends on your individual oral health. As a general guide:
Every 6 to 12 months – For most patients
For most people, professional cleaning once or twice a year is sufficient to remove plaque, tartar and discoloration and help prevent tooth decay and gum disease. This guideline applies when daily oral hygiene is good and there are no particular risk factors.
Every 3 to 4 months – For patients at higher risk
People with gum disease such as periodontitis or an increased risk of tooth decay may benefit from more frequent professional teeth cleaning (PZR). Shorter intervals can also help protect dental implants and other restorations.
At our Berlin practice, we will be pleased to discuss the cleaning interval that is right for you based on the condition of your teeth and gums and your individual risk of dental disease.
Are there disadvantages to professional teeth cleaning?
Professional teeth cleaning (PZR) offers many benefits for the health and appearance of your teeth. It removes tartar and bacteria and can make teeth look brighter. Regular professional cleaning can also help the brightening effect of whitening treatment last longer. However, a few potential disadvantages may occur, although they are generally minor and uncommon:
Sensitivity after treatment
After cleaning, your teeth may temporarily be sensitive to hot, cold or sweet foods and drinks. This sensitivity generally subsides within a few hours.
Gum irritation
Sensitive gums may develop mild irritation or redness that heals quickly. These symptoms are more common in patients with gum disease.
Damage to tooth enamel
In rare cases, teeth cleaning can affect the enamel. This risk is associated primarily with improper treatment or cleaning performed too frequently.
For F80 Signature Prophylaxis, we use gentle technology designed to protect the teeth, gums and enamel. Every cleaning is carried out by a trained dentist, with careful attention to safety, comfort and minimizing unwanted side effects.
Can I deduct professional teeth cleaning from my taxes?
In some cases, the cost of professional teeth cleaning (PZR) may be tax-deductible in Germany as an extraordinary healthcare expense.
Requirements for a tax deduction:
The teeth cleaning must be medically necessary. Preventive or cosmetic treatment alone is generally not recognized. Healthcare expenses, including professional teeth cleaning, can only be claimed if they exceed the applicable reasonable personal burden. This threshold depends on your income, marital status and number of children.
What can you deduct?
You may be able to deduct the actual cost of professional teeth cleaning if it was not reimbursed by health insurance or supplementary insurance. Related expenses, such as travel to the dental practice, may also be deductible where medical necessity applies.
How to claim the cost of professional teeth cleaning:
Enter the expenses in your German tax return under “extraordinary expenses” (Außergewöhnliche Belastungen). Keep all invoices and proof of payment. For larger amounts, a medical certificate confirming medical necessity may also be helpful.
Please speak to your dentist at F80 in Berlin if you need additional documentation for professional teeth cleaning.
