Dental Hygiene

Beautiful smiles start with excellent dental hygiene.

Dental hygiene is front and centre at Arte Dental. Maintaining good dental hygiene is super important not only for long-term oral health goals but also for creating a dazzling smile. It’s also been linked to overall health issues such as diabetes and heart disease, so keeping plaque and decay away can help improve your general well-being, too.

Our hygiene team are skilled at spotting issues from a mile away and providing in-clinic and at-home treatments to help prevent any from occurring. We also offer airflow tooth polishing, the gold standard of professional teeth cleaning, designed to be used on even sensitive teeth and restorations.

Airflow® tooth polishing

This treatment is super gentle yet very effective and helps remove plaque and tartar build-up, as well as getting rid of superficial staining. Airflow tooth polishing can be used on sensitive teeth, as well as restorations and fixed braces.

Using just air, sodium bicarbonate and a controlled jet of water, the teeth are gently yet thoroughly cleaned. Plaque and tartar are removed, and any superficial staining can be removed too. Your teeth will be left looking brighter and polished.

Treatment testimonials

Arte Dental is a unique modern dental practice which offers a warm & friendly environment. The staff are all lovely, from Keeley the receptionist to Zafar the dentist & his assistant. Patients are treated with the utmost respect, care & attention. I would recommend this practice its beautiful inside.

Sarah F

It’s rare to find something that combines both expertise and this level of compassion. I’m honestly grateful for how smooth and stress-free they made the whole visit. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone. And what can I say, very aesthetic and modern. Can’t wait to start my Invisalign treatment.

Zeeshan A

My teeth were done beautifully, and I can’t thank Dr Zaf enough. He was incredibly attentive and took the time to suggest various options to help me achieve my perfect smile. The fact that everything was completed in just one sitting has completely transformed my confidence.

The finance options available are also fantastic — the flexibility makes such a huge difference. As a new mum, you want to do whatever you can to feel like yourself again, and getting my teeth done was a really big step for me.

I’m beyond grateful for how confident this experience has made me feel, and I wouldn’t hesitate to choose Arte Dental again. Highly recommend!

Yasmin A

The entire team was welcoming and attentive throughout. Nurse Ebony was warm and reassuring, and the receptionists, Anika and Keeley, were professional, organised, and extremely welcoming from the moment we arrived.

The practice itself is exceptional — modern, immaculate, and beautifully designed, with a real luxury feel. Overall, a faultless experience from start to finish. We will definitely be returning to visit the practice again and would strongly recommend ARTE Dental to anyone seeking outstanding dental care.

Honestly, the vibes in here are unmatched. It feels more like walking into a luxury hotel lobby than a dental surgery. Super clean, smells amazing, and the lighting is perfect. It just takes the edge off the whole “going to the dentist” experience. Had a hygiene session and a general check-up—smooth process, digital x-rays were quick, and I was out in 30 mins. 10/10 for efficiency and style.

Frequently asked questions

How often should I visit the dental hygienist?

We recommend you have a dental hygiene appointment at least once a year, but twice yearly is optimal. In cases where we are treating any gum disease or periodontal issues, we may recommend more frequent visits.

How should I take care of my teeth at home?

Our dental hygienists will be able to come up with a bespoke oral health plan for you, designed around your specific dental needs. In general, however, we recommend brushing the teeth for 2 minutes twice a day and flossing regularly.

Is professional teeth cleaning uncomfortable?

We use Airflow® tooth polishing for our professional-level cleaning. This is a super gentle system that can be used on even sensitive teeth, restorations and fixed braces. Our skilled hygienists will make sure you’re comfortable throughout.

What is plaque?

Plaque is a buildup of bacteria which forms a sticky, transparent film on the teeth. It continually builds up as a result of saliva, food, and any fluids we consume. This build-up can trap stains, leaving the teeth looking discoloured, but it can also lead to gum disease.

What is tartar?

Tartar forms on the teeth when plaque hardens on the tooth surface. Some patients are simply more susceptible to tartar buildup, while others find it builds up faster as we age. Only a dental professional can fully remove tartar, but you can help prevent it from forming at home by brushing twice a day and flossing daily.

I was searching for the best dental clinic for Invisalign treatment. Although the clinic was fairly new, their before-and-after results on social media looked outstanding, and the positive reviews encouraged me to book a consultation. My original plan was to visit a few clinics before making a final decision.However, from the moment I walked into Arte Dental, I was genuinely impressed. The aesthetics of the clinic are absolutely breathtaking — I almost felt special just walking through the door. The atmosphere is modern, calming, and beautifully designed.What stood out even more was the customer service. Every member of the team takes special care to make sure you feel welcome, comfortable, and completely at ease.I was then introduced to Dr Zaf, who explained the entire Invisalign process clearly and patiently answered all of my questions. The treatment plan was presented in a very professional and transparent way.The price I was quoted was very affordable, and I was also given the option to pay in convenient instalments, which made the whole process even more accessible.My first impression was so positive that I decided not to look anywhere else and began my Invisalign journey with Arte Dental straight away. I’m genuinely so glad I found them and would highly recommend them to anyone considering Invisalign treatment!

Started my Invisalign and composite bonding journey today at Arte dental. The aesthetics of the dentist is beautiful and the staff are so welcoming and friendly. Keelie on the desk makes the best coffees, Alisha worked out a payment plan that was convenient for me and Dr Faizan was friendly, informative and has come up with the best plan for my new smile. Couldn’t recommend them enough and can’t wait to see my teeth in 6 months time!

I’ve had a few appointments with Dr Faizan Ali, and it’s genuinely been the best dental experience I’ve ever had. He is incredibly thorough, patient, and informative. I’ve just started my Invisalign treatment and wouldn’t want to do this journey with any other dentist.The decor is absolutely stunning, and Keeley on reception has been fantastic to deal with, she is so attentive and kind.Birmingham city centre has really been needing a dentist like this: modern, professional, and a place that genuinely takes your wants and preferences into consideration.Overall, it’s been such a great experience. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend booking!— Iona

I couldn’t be happier with my Invisalign journey! I chose Dr Zaf because of his outstanding knowledge and expertise in all things teeth, and he truly exceeded my expectations. He takes the time to explain everything clearly, which made me feel confident and reassured at every stage. He is also super knowledgeable with restorative dentistry and recommend him, without a doubt!As someone who gets quite nervous about dental visits, I really appreciated how calm, friendly, and reassuring he is. The whole experience was smooth from start to finish, and I’m absolutely thrilled with my new smile. I would highly recommend him to anyone considering Invisalign or looking for a dentist who genuinely cares about his patients.

Arte Dental is absolutely stunning — from the moment you walk in, the clinic feels modern, calming, and beautifully designed.

He is highly skilled, professional, and incredibly reassuring. He takes the time to explain everything clearly, listens properly, and makes you feel completely comfortable and confident throughout your treatment. His attention to detail and care for patient comfort really stand out.The whole experience at Arte Dental feels premium, personal, and stress-free. I couldn’t recommend Dr Ali and the team highly enough — easily one of the best dental experiences I’ve had.

I recently started my Invisalign journey at Arte Dental, something I’ve been meaning to do for a long time. I’ve had consultations at other dental practices in the past but I never felt comfortable or confident enough to move forward until I came here.From my very first appointment, Dr Faizan’s passion for his work was admirable. He isn’t only focused on the end result but places equal importance on making the entire journey enjoyable. He was incredibly thorough, taking the time to explain each step clearly and encouraging me to ask questions throughout. Nothing felt rushed and I felt genuinely listened to, informed and completely at ease. That level of care and clarity gave me the confidence to finally begin treatment.The entire practice feels effortlessly luxurious. From the moment you walk in, the attention to detail is second to none and it immediately reassures you that the same precision and care is being applied to your treatment. It genuinely feels like you’re in another country, not Birmingham!Dr Faizan is exceptional- highly knowledgeable, approachable, and reassuring. He creates a calm, safe environment and ensures you feel confident at every stage of the process.Keeley at reception is equally wonderful- warm, professional, and an absolute joy. I now genuinely look forward to my appointments, which is something I never thought I’d say about the dentist.An outstanding experience from start to finish, and I couldn’t recommend Arte Dental more highly.

Arte dental is the perfect practice. I have had a great experience from their wonderful front of house team, nurses and dentist. From my first consultation to completion of my treatment I have felt looked after by the entire team. I went for composite bonding with Dr Zaf and he really listened to what I wanted, took time to understand my vision and then curated the perfect smile for me. The end result is exactly what I had hoped for, if not better. The professionalism, skill and attention to detail has been outstanding. I can’t recommend this practice highly enough.

This dental practise has been amazing. The quality of care is top notch and the service is amazing. The reception team are lovely , and Keeley is ever so helpful and kind. My dentist was Dr Ali and he’s been super great this whole time , his quality of work is phenomenal and you can tell he has had great experience in the dental field. The dental nurses are so sweet too and always do their best to make sure you feel welcomed. It’s been an absolute pleasure going to this practice , and I highly recommend it if you’re looking for good value care where quality isn’t compromised!

I had an excellent experience at ARTE Dental and couldn’t recommend them highly enough. I attended with my brother for a teeth whitening consultation and a scale and polish, and we were both cared for by Dr Zaf and Dr Faizan.

We really got on well with both of them, and they took the time to explain everything clearly while putting us completely at ease.The entire team was welcoming and attentive throughout.

First time at Arte Dental and was like walking into a luxury hotel with amazing decor and a nice coffee. Then had a hygiene clean with Dr Ali who had put in my veneers top and bottom 12 months ago and best thing I have ever done. If you’re looking for an amazing dentist don’t look any further than Arte Dental. Thank you to you all.
