Dental hygiene treatment is more than just a cleaning procedure. This ongoing maintenance is customized for your needs. A dental cleaning (or scaling) involves the removal of the hard deposits that forms on tooth surfaces called calculus (or tartar). The accumulation of soft plaque and calculus contributes to periodontal disease, and their removal is essential for good oral health.
After scaling, polishing ( if indicated) can remove surface stains on teeth and leave them shiny and smooth, putting the finishing touches on preventive dental treatment.
