Scaling

What is Dental Scaling?
Dental scaling is a professional cleaning procedure that removes plaque, tartar (calculus), and stains from the surfaces of your teeth and beneath the gumline. It is an essential part of maintaining healthy gums and preventing periodontal (gum) disease.

Who Needs Scaling?

  • Individuals with plaque and tartar buildup that cannot be removed by regular brushing
  • Patients showing early signs of gum disease, such as bleeding or swollen gums
  • Those experiencing bad breath caused by bacterial buildup
  • Anyone looking to maintain optimal oral hygiene and prevent dental issues

Benefits of Dental Scaling:

  • Prevents Gum Disease: Removes bacteria-laden tartar that causes inflammation and infection.
  • Improves Oral Health: Promotes healthier gums and reduces the risk of tooth loss.
  • Freshens Breath: Eliminates odor-causing deposits, leading to a cleaner mouth.
  • Enhances Smile Appearance: Removes stains and discoloration for brighter teeth.
  • Supports Overall Health: Good oral hygiene contributes to overall well-being by reducing systemic risks.
