Teeth Scaling & Polishing
Teeth Scaling & Polishing Treatment in Dubai
Teeth scaling and polishing is a dental treatment in dubai that involves the removal of plaque and tartar buildup from the teeth. Followed by polishing to remove any surface stains and smooth the tooth surfaces. Scaling is the process of using a special tool to remove the hard, mineralized plaque and tartar buildup that cannot be removed through regular brushing and flossing. The hygienist or dentist will carefully scrape away the buildup from the teeth and below the gum line, using both manual and ultrasonic tools.
Why do you need to do scaling & polishing?
Teeth scaling and polishing in Dubai are essential for maintaining oral health and preventing issues like gum disease and tooth decay. Here’s why they are necessary:
- Remove Plaque and Tartar: Scaling eliminates tartar and plaque that regular brushing and flossing miss, helping prevent gum disease and tooth decay.
- Prevent Gum Disease: By removing bacteria and plaque, scaling and polishing reduce the risk of gum inflammation and infection, promoting healthier gums.
- Improve Oral Hygiene: These procedures enhance oral hygiene by preventing bad breath and maintaining a cleaner mouth.
- Enhance Aesthetics: Polishing removes surface stains, making teeth look cleaner and brighter, improving your smile’s appearance.
Scaling & polishing procedures
Scaling: Scaling removes tartar and plaque from teeth surfaces and below the gum line. Since regular brushing can’t remove hardened tartar, our dentist uses manual and ultrasonic tools to carefully scrape away buildup, especially in hard-to-reach areas.
Polishing: After scaling, polishing smooths the tooth surfaces and removes surface stains. The dentist applies a gritty toothpaste with a polishing tool, using a circular motion to clean and smooth the teeth. The abrasives in the toothpaste help eliminate stains and enhance smoothness.
