Maintaining a healthy and confident smile begins with proper oral hygiene. At Dr. Radhika Multispecialty Clinic, we offer advanced ultrasonic scaling and polishing services that go beyond routine brushing and flossing. This professional dental cleaning procedure is essential for removing stubborn plaque, tartar, and surface stains that accumulate over time, even with good home care practices.
More Comfortable Cleaning: The procedure is generally more comfortable than manual scraping, especially for patients with sensitive teeth or gums.
Deeper Cleaning: Ultrasonic waves can reach below the gumline, cleaning pockets where bacteria thrive.
Faster Results: The procedure is quicker, making it ideal for patients with heavy deposits or tight schedules.
Reduces Inflammation: By removing bacteria and toxins, ultrasonic scaling helps reduce gum inflammation and promotes healing.
Supports Overall Health: Poor oral hygiene is linked to systemic conditions like diabetes, heart disease, and respiratory infections. Scaling helps reduce this risk.
Following scaling, dental polishing is done to smoothen the tooth surfaces and remove any residual stains caused by tea, coffee, smoking, or certain foods. A soft rubber cup and a special polishing paste are used to give your teeth a smooth and shiny finish. Polishing not only enhances your smile aesthetically but also makes it harder for plaque to accumulate on clean surfaces.
Even if you brush twice daily and floss regularly, it is difficult to completely eliminate all plaque and tartar on your own. Over time, these deposits harden and harbor bacteria that cause cavities, gum disease, and bad breath. Scaling and polishing every 6 months is essential for:
Preventing gum disease (gingivitis and periodontitis)
Reducing bad breath (halitosis)
Minimizing tooth decay
Improving the appearance of teeth
Maintaining overall oral hygiene
