Scaling and Polishing

Scaling and Polishing?

Scaling and polishing is a dental procedure that effectively eliminates undesirable deposits, such as dental plaque and tartar, which accumulates on teeth surfaces. During the scaling procedure, any tartar and plaque deposits adhering to your teeth will be removed. Plaque is a soft, yellowish substance that naturally builds up on teeth over time. Following the thorough removal of plaque and tartar through scaling, the polishing procedure ensues. The dentist will carefully polish your teeth to create a smooth and lustrous finish.

Stubborn stains can be removed by painless air polishing. 

Polishing your teeth not only eradicates accumulated stains but also imparts a natural and radiant shine to your smile. This comprehensive cleaning procedure promotes brighter, healthier teeth. To maintain optimal oral health, it is strongly recommended to visit a dentist every six months.

Benefits Of Scaling And Polishing

As time passes, calculus can accumulate on your teeth, resulting in a yellowish appearance. To address this issue, professional scaling and cleaning are performed to eliminate all hardened calculus. Once the calculus is removed, your teeth are meticulously polished, which helps to lift certain surface stains.

The presence of infection causing bacteria in calculus highlights the importance of regular removal as a means to decrease the risk of gum disease.

Following a professional teeth cleaning, you will likely experience a noticeable sensation of cleanliness in your mouth, which can greatly improve the freshness of your breath.

The presence of gum disease has been associated with various serious health conditions, such as diabetes, heart disease, dementia, and certain cancers. By undergoing scaling and polishing, you can easily reduce your risk of developing these ailments.

In the long run, it is more economical to prevent dental diseases rather than treating them, and attending regular hygiene appointments can help minimize dental expenses.

A polishing paste with fluroide is applied onto a soft rubber cup that is used to rotate and polish your teeth, effectively eliminating minor stains and leaving them with a smooth and shiny appearance. In the event of persistent stains or discolorations that are resistant to polishing, we may suggest treatments such as airflow stain removal or teeth whitening.
