What happens during teeth scaling?

·       Teeth scaling and root planing is carried out in a single or multiple appointments depending on the severity

·       Scaling is usually carried out with an electronic scaler that has an ultrasonic vibrating tip. This process scraps the plaque and tartar (calculus) and stains from your teeth and in areas between teeth and gums. Next, the dentist will smooth the tooth roots to help your gums to reattach to the teeth.

·       You may be asked to avoid certain types of food after the procedure. Your dentist may prescribe the use of medicated mouthwash for several days to maintain oral hygiene and help you heal faster.

Benefits of teeth scaling (cleaning)?
