You could also blow it out with compressed air.
If all else fails you could get an external cd drive.

If something is scratching the CD/DVDs inside the drive there has to be bit of gravel or something similar a tiny screw might of come loose. It has also to be catching somewhere and rolling around when the CD is spinning. Is the scratching circular or directly across the disc. Gently shake the laptop in different directions including upside down with the tray open? Use a torch to have a look inside. It should be obvious to see if the scratching is bad. Also check that there is no bits of clear plastic , which you get sometimes, when you buy a stack of DVDs and is used as part of the packaging at the start and end of a stack. This might have stuck from a previous DVD and left in the drive.
