Teeth cleaning, or dental scaling, is a professional procedure to remove plaque and tartar buildup on teeth, maintaining gum health and preventing dental issues. This involves cleaning the crown and sometimes the root of the teeth, and it is typically painless, requiring one or two sittings. Regular cleaning every 3-4 months helps prevent gum diseases and bad breath. Aftercare is straightforward, focusing on maintaining oral hygiene and avoiding hot or spicy foods for a few days.
Our teeth are made up of two parts. One part visible in the mouth is called the crown, and the other part inside the bone is called the root. Teeth cleaning is the process of cleaning the crown portion of the tooth. Usually, the regular brushing done correctly cleans the teeth. However, some deposits are not removed with regular brushing. These deposits on the teeth contain bacteria, affecting your gum health. Professional teeth cleaning or dental scaling is the solution for the removal of this plaque. Removing plaque deposits from the crown portion is called scaling, and cleaning the root portion is called root planing. Our highly skilled team of experts at Healthy Smiles Dental Clinic Ahmedabad will clinically examine your teeth to determine whether you need scaling or scaling with root planing. Ideally, you should get your professional teeth cleaning done at a regular interval of 3-4 months to maintain optimum gum health. The whole process is painless and usually completed in one or two sittings per your current dental status. The benefits of professional teeth cleaning include prevention of gum diseases, removal of plaque and tartar, and fresher breath.
Gums and other supporting structures are essential in keeping teeth safely anchored in their normal position. When gums become infected, they become swollen or red. Slowly, the disease spreads from the gum tissue towards the other supporting tissues, leading to mobile teeth.
Regular toothbrushing is insufficient to remove plaque and calcified deposits from the teeth. These deposits attract bacteria, leading to bad breath or halitosis. Bad breath or halitosis indicates that you need professional teeth cleaning
Our team will do a thorough clinical examination to check your teeth and gums before starting the teeth-cleaning process. Based on your condition, a customized treatment plan will be formulated. We will decide the number of sittings based on that.
The next step is cleaning the teeth. An ultrasonic scaler is an instrument used to remove deposits from the teeth. The entire process, designed to be as comfortable as possible, is painless. You may feel the vibration of the scaler, which is normal.
Anesthesia is not required for regular teeth cleaning, but if deposits are below the gum line, a deep cleaning procedure is carried out under local anesthesia. This is to ensure your comfort throughout the process and to make the procedure painless.
Deep cleaning involves cleaning the area under the gum line with a scaler.
