Scaling & Polishing in Zirakpur

Professional teeth cleaning to remove plaque, tartar, and surface stains for fresh breath.

Understanding the Procedure

Even with regular brushing and flossing, plaque and hard mineral deposits (tartar or calculus) can build up on your teeth and under the gumline over time. If left untreated, tartar can cause gum irritation, bleeding, and eventually gum disease. Scaling and polishing is a standard preventative procedure where we use specialized ultrasonic scalers to break down and wash away plaque and tartar, followed by professional polishing to leave your teeth smooth, shiny, and clean.

Our Step-by-Step Treatment Process

1

Visual Exam

We inspect your teeth and gums to identify areas with plaque buildup and signs of gum irritation.

2

Ultrasonic Scaling

An ultrasonic scaler uses high-frequency vibrations and a gentle water mist to break up and wash away stubborn tartar.

3

Fine Hand Scaling

Any micro-deposits in hard-to-reach areas between teeth are carefully removed with manual instruments.

4

Prophy Polishing

A rotating rubber cup with a mild abrasive prophylaxis paste is used to polish away surface stains and smooth the enamel.

5

Flossing & Fluoride

We floss between all teeth and apply a protective fluoride varnish if needed to strengthen enamel.
