Description

Teeth cleaning, or scaling, removes plaque, tartar, and stains using ultrasonic scalers and hand tools to prevent cavities and gum disease. Polishing follows, using a slow-speed rotating rubber cup with a special paste or an air-powder device with water and abrasives to smooth tooth surfaces, remove minor stains, and leave teeth shiny. This preventive procedure, typically done every six months, improves overall oral health and can enhance the appearance of your smile.
