Teeth Cleaning (Scaling) in Dr. Mariana Mota

About the clinic

Teeth cleaning at the clinic of Dr. Mariana Mota in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, uses advanced Guided Biofilm Therapy to remove plaque and tartar. This method provides a gentle experience for international patients visiting the Leblon or Tijuca districts. The clinic follows professional standards licensed by the Rio de Janeiro Regional Dental Council.

Advanced Cleaning Technology

The clinic uses the Airflow system by EMS Dental for professional prophylaxis. This technology uses Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT) to identify and remove plaque. A special blue dye highlights biofilm on the teeth before the cleaning starts. This helps the dentist see exactly where treatment is needed. The process uses erythritol particles mixed with warm water to clean surfaces without scraping. This approach is much more comfortable than traditional scaling methods.

Comfort for Sensitive Teeth

Patients with tooth sensitivity often find standard cleanings painful. Dr. Mariana Mota uses warm water and adjustable power settings to help with this issue. The Airflow system creates less vibration than older dental tools. These features make the procedure easier for people who fear dental pain. The erythritol powder is fine and soft, protecting the gums and tooth enamel during the session.

Expert Dental Care

Dr. Mariana Mota leads the practice with over 10 years of clinical experience. She is a graduate of the State University of Rio de Janeiro and specializes in restorative dentistry. As a member of the Brazilian Society of Aesthetic Dentistry, she focuses on both health and tooth appearance. The clinic staff provides explanations in English to help international patients understand their treatment plan.

Location and Standards

The practice operates two modern units in Rio de Janeiro, located in Leblon and Tijuca. The clinic holds a formal license from the Regional Dental Council (CRORJ 37174). This helps verify that the facility meets local medical regulations. Patients receive a thorough check of their oral health along with the cleaning process.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Dr. Mariana is simply wonderful! ❤️ A professional who combines knowledge, delicacy, talent, and exceptional care with every patient. I had my facelifts done with her about 5 years ago, and I have never had any problems throughout all these years. But I need to highlight a recent experience that really surprised me: the dental cleaning with Airflow technology! ✨ It was simply wonderful! A feeling of deep, delicate, and very pleasant cleaning. The technology uses a jet of air, warm water, and specific micro-powder, helping to remove surface stains and leaving your teeth with that incredible feeling of cleanliness and freshness. It was a unique, modern experience, and far more comfortable than I ever imagined. I left delighted with the result and with all the care during the procedure! The clinic is beautiful, spotless, and welcoming, and Dr. Mariana shows passion for what she does, always seeking to offer her patients the best. You know that kind of professional you recommend with peace of mind because you truly trust her work? Thank you so much for everything 🙏🥹

Today I was seen at the office by Drs. Glória and Dr. Mariana to have a cleaning done, and I need to record my experience! Since I use orthodontic braces, I was already prepared to feel pain and discomfort… But I was incredibly pleasantly surprised! They used a new technology, Airflow, and I didn’t know it was possible to have such a comfortable cleaning, especially with braces! I don’t get cleanings anywhere else anymore—now it’s only with Dr. Mariana. Dr. Glória, thank you so much for all the care and attention you gave me! ♡ There’s no doubt, the best clinic in Rio de Janeiro!

The experience in the office is exceptional from the very beginning, with great care and competence. I entrusted my treatment to Dr. Mariana after going through other professionals who, unfortunately, weren’t as transparent and attentive. Finally, I found a place where I went in feeling confident and I know I will always be well taken care of.

Dr. Mariana, or simply Marii!! A synonym for excellence. How can I not praise her journey and competence? The service is so personalized, with transparency and technical rigor in the planning. Thank you for turning our smiles into something special. And since I’m also a dentist surgeon, I have to highlight the professional I trust with my smile and that of my entire family.

Mariana Mota, what you did with this restoration was incredible!!! I’d already lost hope of saving this tooth, but the result is simply flawless. The restoration looks completely natural, with no difference in color or shape, and today it doesn’t even seem like the tooth had such a major problem. Besides the technical excellence, I was treated with a lot of care, attention, and professionalism. It’s rare to find such a dedicated, meticulous dentist.

I had the most amazing experience with Dra Mariana, who so helpful, attentive and truly masterful at dentistry. From start to finish, everything was impeccable. She took the time to explain everything to me, listen to my concerns, and made me feel totally comfortable. And most importantly, the outcome of my procedure was beyond what I had hoped for! The surgery was also very comfortable, and her staff were kind and helpful. If you're in Rio and are thinking about getting any cosmetic dental procedure, I couldn't recommend Dra Mariana enough!

Dr. Mariana is an unbelievably talented and competent professional—plus she’s such a sweetheart! I came to her almost without hope that anyone would be able to solve my case. I needed redo work with veneers on all 4 front teeth, and I was completely traumatized by the previous professional. With all the patience in the world to explain every detail, Dr. Mariana performed an impeccable procedure to remove the veneers and did an absolutely perfect job for these resin restorations. It turned out stunning—beautiful, natural—and it gave me the confidence to smile a lot!! Besides all the kindness and care I received throughout the entire treatment. I recommend her with my eyes closed! She has all my trust!!!
