Teeth Cleaning & Polishing
Professional scaling and polishing to remove tartar, prevent gum disease, and keep your teeth looking their best.
Why professional cleaning matters
Even with diligent brushing and flossing, plaque hardens into tartar (calculus) in areas that are difficult to reach. Tartar buildup leads to gingivitis, bad breath, and eventually periodontitis — the leading cause of tooth loss in adults. Professional scaling uses ultrasonic and hand instruments to safely remove tartar above and below the gum line. Polishing smooths tooth surfaces to resist future plaque buildup. The ADA recommends professional cleaning every 6 months.
Benefits
Prevents gum disease
Regular scaling removes tartar before it causes irreversible damage to gums and bone.
Fresher breath
Eliminates bacteria trapped in tartar — the main cause of persistent bad breath.
Brighter smile
Polishing removes surface stains from coffee, tea, and tobacco.
Early detection
Routine cleanings let us spot cavities, cracks, and oral health issues early.
How it works
Oral examination
A thorough check of gums, teeth, and soft tissue to assess overall oral health.
Ultrasonic scaling
High-frequency vibrations dislodge tartar deposits above and below the gum line.
Hand scaling
Fine instruments remove residual deposits in difficult-to-reach areas.
Polishing & fluoride
A polishing paste smooths teeth and a fluoride application strengthens enamel.
Frequently asked questions
Every 6 months is recommended for most people. Patients with gum disease may need cleanings every 3–4 months.
No. Professional scaling removes tartar from the enamel surface without damaging it. The ultrasonic instruments are designed to be gentle on tooth structure.
Most patients experience no pain. If you have sensitive teeth or significant tartar buildup, mild discomfort is possible — we can use topical numbing gel for comfort.
No. If teeth feel slightly mobile after scaling, it is because the tartar that was holding them was removed. The gums will heal and tighten within a few days.
