Teeth scaling and polishing removes plaque tartar and stains from your teeth. This preventive treatment keeps gums healthy and brightens your smile. We perform it gently using specialized tools at our Al Ain clinic.
Our dentist first checks your teeth and gums. An ultrasonic scaler vibrates to loosen hard tartar above and below the gumline. Hand tools clean tricky spots. Finally a soft rubber cup with polishing paste smooths tooth surfaces. The process takes 30-45 minutes. Most patients feel only mild vibration not pain.
Yes when done by a trained professional. We use controlled pressure to protect enamel. Temporary sensitivity to cold may occur for 24 hours but resolves quickly. This treatment strengthens long-term tooth health by preventing gum recession and bone loss.
Brushing removes soft plaque but cannot eliminate hardened tartar. Only professional scaling removes tartar that causes gum inflammation. Polishing creates a smooth surface where plaque struggles to stick. Together they complement your home care routine for optimal results.
Before: Avoid eating right before your visit. Inform us of any medical conditions or medications.
After: Your teeth may feel unusually smooth. Avoid strongly colored foods like coffee or berries for 2 hours to let the polish set. Sensitivity if any fades fast. Normal eating resumes immediately.
