Teeth scaling or mouth cleaning is done by a dentist before doing a final assessment of the mouth. The dentist uses special high powered ultrasonic tips with a water shower to break down the bridges of plaque and tartar bonded to the teeth. Deep cleaning is necessary when the plaque and tartar bonds go below the gum line and break the gum and tooth attachment which leads to the formation of gum pockets. The scaling tips are designed to reach every nook and cranny of your mouth and remove plaque from your teeth. Any hidden cavities are noted down during the appointment to be treated later. Dental scaling is essential every six months and follows up appointments are set up to assess the oral health of the patient.
Regular teeth scaling keeps the bad bacteria at bay.
Teeth scaling is a routine procedure performed at the dental clinic. Accumulation of plaque, tartar and stains have underlying dental conditions which need to be treated for optimum oral health. Hence this is the first procedure done before a thorough oral examination is done.
The procedure involves the application of an anaesthetic gel to the gum line which keeps the patient comfortable through the procedure. The dentist then uses an ultrasonic scaler which emits vibrations that break the tartar bridges across your teeth and loosen the bond of plaque deposits. The water shower attached to the tip of the scalar then washes away the debris collected into the suction tube held by the dental assistant. Ultrasonic scaler tips come in different shapes and sizes which make it easy to reach every nook and cranny of your mouth. After dental scaling is over, a polishing treatment is done. The dentist uses a slow-speed motor with a soft rubber cup to polish the teeth. A slurry of pumice is used for the polishing process. It is necessary to scale and polish your teeth because the surface of the teeth become even and inert which makes tartar attachment more difficult. This procedure should be done every 6 months to maintain good oral health and hygiene.
Basic scaling and polishing price is very reasonable. The cost is set for every appointment. The oral hygiene levels dictate the number of sittings needed. Hence, the teeth scaling price in Mumbai is quite low if done once every 6 months.
Mild to moderate plaque and tartar levels cause gingivitis. This needs at least 2-3 appointments to clear.
For patients with chronic periodontitis, a deep gum cleaning is required every 3 months to keep the bacterial load at minimum levels. This can increase the cost of the treatment.
Dental teeth scaling and polishing cost is not much but getting it done regularly is very important. When done regularly, your oral hygiene remains good which leads to a healthy mouth with no dental problems whatsoever.
Very agile hands, didn't feel a thing. The most pain-free root canal in my life.
