TEETH SCALING
What is Teeth Cleaning or Scaling?
Teeth scaling or cleaning involves removal of plaque, tartar and other bacteria from the tooth surface in order to prevent cavities, gingivitis, or gum diseases. Regular teeth cleanings and exams can prevent serious dental issues from developing.
Professional dental cleanings remove plaque, a sticky substance containing bacteria that eats away at the enamel of your teeth. When plaque is left on the teeth, it builds up and hardens into tartar. Professional dental cleanings remove stains and discolorations from the teeth, as well as plaque and tarter.
Regular dental cleanings help to prevent periodontal disease from occurring. This has shown to have a link with heart disease in patients, yet another reason to see your dentist frequently for dental cleanings.
How is Teeth Cleaning or Scaling Done?
Teeth cleaning uses a combination of light, targeted water sprays, ultrasonic tools that vibrate, small dental instruments, and polishes to clean the teeth.
Teeth scaling and root planing can be done by our dentist in Chandigarh as an outpatient procedure. You may need to schedule one or more appointments for the procedure depending on the severity of your condition.
Our dentists at Pristine Dental and Facial Care Chandigarh may or may not need to use a local anesthetic to lessen the discomfort of the procedure. If you are concerned about pain, feel free to discuss with us.
The dentist will first conduct teeth scaling. This involves scraping the plaque from your teeth and in any large pockets that have developed between your teeth and gums.
Next, the dental surgeons a will do the root planing. Your dentist will smooth the tooth roots using a scaling tool. This smoothing helps your gums to reattach to your teeth.
