Frequently Asked Questions
What is scaling and polishing, and why is it important?
Scaling and polishing is a professional dental procedure that removes hardened plaque (tartar) and surface stains from your teeth. It is important because it prevents gum disease, improves oral hygiene, enhances the brightness of your smile, and helps eliminate bad breath.
How does scaling and polishing improve my oral health?
By thoroughly removing plaque and tartar, scaling and polishing prevent the development of gingivitis and periodontitis. This makes your regular brushing and flossing more effective, reducing the risk of cavities and chronic bad breath.
Is the scaling and polishing procedure painful?
No, the procedure is completely painless. Local anesthesia is used to numb the area, so you only feel slight vibrations or a tingling sensation during the treatment.
How often should I get my teeth scaled and polished?
Most patients benefit from scaling and polishing every six months. However, if you smoke, consume a lot of coffee or tea, or have existing gum disease, you may require the treatment every 3 to 4 months
Does scaling and polishing whiten teeth?
While scaling and polishing remove surface stains and brighten your smile, they do not dramatically change the natural color of your teeth. For a significantly whiter smile, consider additional teeth whitening treatments
Can scaling and polishing help reduce bad breath?
Yes, by removing bacteria and plaque—the primary causes of bad breath—scaling and polishing leave your mouth fresh and clean.
How long does a scaling and polishing session typically take?
The entire process usually takes between 30 and 60 minutes, depending on the extent of plaque and tartar buildup.
Can scaling and polishing damage my teeth?
No, when performed by a trained dental professional, scaling and polishing safely remove harmful deposits without damaging your enamel or tooth structure.
What aftercare should I follow after the treatment?
After your scaling and polishing, maintain a strict oral hygiene routine by brushing twice daily with fluoride toothpaste, flossing regularly, avoiding stain-causing foods for 24 hours, and scheduling regular dental checkups.
