Teeth scaling is the process of removing plaque and hardened tartar (calculus) from the tooth surface and along the gumline. These deposits cannot be removed by regular brushing and flossing. Scaling helps prevent gum inflammation, bleeding gums, and periodontal (gum) disease while promoting overall oral health.
Teeth polishing is typically performed after scaling to smooth the tooth surfaces and remove minor surface stains. This step helps eliminate plaque residue and discoloration caused by coffee, tea, and smoking, leaving your teeth feeling clean, smooth, and refreshed with a natural shine.
Together, scaling and polishing improve oral hygiene, enhance the appearance of your smile, and create a cleaner environment that makes it harder for plaque to build up again.
