Remove buildup and refresh gum health
Brushing and flossing are great for daily maintenance, but within 24 to 48 hours, soft plaque hardens into tartar (calculus) which cannot be removed by home brushing. Professional scaling gently removes this tartar, which is the leading cause of gum bleeding, inflammation, and chronic bad breath.
Persistent bleeding while brushing or flossing
Stubborn stains from coffee, tea, smoking, or colored food items
Halitosis (chronic bad breath) that mouthwashes fail to cover up
Rough, yellow-brown deposits along or underneath the gum lines
Following scaling, we perform professional polishing with a specialized prophylactic paste. This smooths out micro-roughnesses on the enamel surface, making it much more difficult for plaque bacteria to stick in the future and giving your teeth a clean, refreshed feel.
