What Is Teeth Scaling?
Teeth Scaling is a professional dental cleaning treatment that removes hardened plaque, also known as tartar or calculus, from the surface of the teeth and areas below the gum line. This hardened buildup cannot be removed through daily brushing or flossing alone. Teeth Scaling can help to reduce bacteria accumulation that may lead to gum inflammation, gum infection, and progressive oral health problems.
Teeth Scaling supports healthier gums, fresher breath, and improved overall oral hygiene. By removing bacteria and tartar deposits, the treatment helps reduce gum swelling, bleeding, and irritation. Teeth Scaling also lowers the risk of gum disease progression, tooth loosening, and tooth loss. When performed regularly, the treatment helps maintain clean tooth surfaces, supports gum attachment, and contributes to long-term dental health and comfort.
How It Works
Teeth Scaling begins with consultation by the dentist at our affiliated clinic, where the condition of the teeth and gums is carefully examined. The dentist checks for tartar buildup, gum inflammation, and signs of gum disease to decide the depth of cleaning required. Once the treatment plan is confirmed, Teeth Scaling is carried out using ultrasonic instruments and fine dental tools to remove hardened plaque from the tooth surfaces and below the gum line.
During the treatment, vibrations and gentle water flow are used to loosen and flush away tartar and bacteria, followed by detailed cleaning to ensure smoother tooth surfaces. This process helps reduce bacteria levels, supports gum healing, and improves overall oral hygiene. Mild tooth sensitivity or gum tenderness may occur and usually settles within 1 to 3 days without special treatment.
