What is Dental Scaling and Polishing?

Scaling is a preventive dental procedure that removes plaque, tartar (calculus), and stains from your teeth and gumline using ultrasonic tools and hand instruments. Polishing follows scaling and smooths the tooth surface, reducing future plaque buildup and giving your teeth a natural shine.

Why is Scaling Important for Your Oral Health?

Despite regular brushing and flossing, bacteria-laden plaque hardens into tartar in areas your toothbrush can’t reach. If not removed, it can lead to:

  • Gingivitis (bleeding gums)
  • Periodontitis (advanced gum disease)
  • Tooth sensitivity and mobility
  • Persistent bad breath (halitosis)

Dental scaling at our Delhi clinic helps prevent these conditions and supports overall gum and tooth health.

Benefits of Scaling and Polishing

  • Removes Plaque and Tartar
    Even with excellent brushing habits, professional scaling is needed to remove hardened tartar that causes cavities and gum inflammation.
  • Freshens Your Breath
    By eliminating bacteria buildup, scaling significantly reduces bad breath and leaves your mouth feeling clean and fresh.
  • Whitens Your Smile Naturally
    Stains from coffee, tea, tobacco, and food are gently polished away, enhancing your smile without chemical bleaching.
  • Prevents Gum Disease
    Regular scaling controls plaque and prevents gum recession, bone loss, and tooth loss linked to periodontal disease.
  • Safe and Painless Procedure
    Performed by experienced dentists using modern ultrasonic scalers for a gentle and comfortable cleaning experience.

What Happens During a Scaling and Polishing Appointment?

1. Dental Evaluation – Your dentist will inspect your teeth and gums and recommend scaling based on your oral health condition.

2. Scaling – Specialized tools, including ultrasonic scalers and hand instruments, are used to dislodge plaque and tartar from teeth and beneath the gumline.

3. Polishing – A polishing tool and gentle paste smoothen your tooth surfaces, removing stains and making it harder for plaque to accumulate again.

4. Fluoride Protection (Optional) – A fluoride gel may be applied to strengthen enamel and prevent cavities post-treatment.

Who Should Get Scaling Done?

Everyone! But especially if you notice:

  • Bleeding while brushing
  • Persistent bad breath
  • Yellow or brown stains
  • Gums pulling away from teeth

Scaling is recommended every 6 months for most patients, or every 3-4 months if you have a history of gum disease.
