What are the benefits of teeth scaling?

Teeth scaling makes your mouth cavity-free and keeps it healthy for a long duration. We have listed the benefits of teeth scaling below:

Avoid cavities and tooth decay:

Tooth decay is the starting point of any major dental issue. Scaling goes a long way in preventing that. Cavities tend to become the host for plaque and damage the enamel of the teeth, which is the hardest layer of the teeth. Scaling will keep the plaque at bay and prevent major dental problems.

Prevent Periodontal disease:

If you ignore the plaque deposits on your teeth, then you are giving an open invitation for gum diseases to attack your gums. It can further lead to tooth loss. Scaling guards, your gum line anchors your teeth and helps you maintain good oral care.

Remove Stains:

Beverages like tea, coffee, and wine stain your teeth. Scaling helps remove these pigments from your teeth to a great extent and gives you an attractive smile. 

Eliminates Bad Breath:

 Plaque is a breeding ground for bacteria, and it develops into tartar. Tartar and plaque deposits on your teeth result in halitosis or bad breath. Daily brushing and flossing will only give you partial results, and only teeth scaling will completely rid your mouth of plaque and tartar, eliminating bad breath simultaneously.  

What to expect after the procedure?

Once you get the procedure done at our dental clinic, you will notice a lot of difference in the way your mouth feels. Your teeth will get their sheen back, your gums will feel healthy, and you will feel a whole lot cleaner. It will make your teeth stronger.

You might experience tooth sensitivity for a few days after the procedure, but this is normal and can be easily rectified using sensitivity toothpaste. It is also completely normal to experience bleeding between your teeth. Rinse your mouth with salt water and brush your teeth gently.
