Scaling & Polishing
Professional Teeth Scaling & Polishing in Delhi at Damini Bhasin Dental Clinic
Plaque and tartar buildup cannot be removed by regular brushing alone. Over time, this buildup leads to gum inflammation, bad breath, staining, and even gum disease. Professional scaling and polishing is essential to maintain healthy teeth and gums.
At Damini Bhasin Dental Clinic, we provide safe and effective ultrasonic scaling and polishing to remove deposits, stains, and bacteria, leaving your teeth clean, smooth, and refreshed.
What Is Scaling & Polishing?
Scaling is a professional cleaning procedure that removes plaque, tartar (calculus), and bacterial deposits from the tooth surface and below the gum line.
Polishing smoothens the tooth surface after scaling to remove minor stains and prevent plaque from accumulating easily.
Scaling and polishing help to:
Remove hardened tartar
Eliminate surface stains from tea, coffee, or smoking
Reduce gum inflammation and bleeding
Prevent gum disease (gingivitis and periodontitis)
Improve overall oral hygiene
Regular professional cleaning is necessary even if you brush daily.
