What is Scaling and Polishing of Teeth ?

Scaling and polishing teeth is a common dental hygiene procedure that has many benefits. You may know by now that plaque builds up on teeth every day. We regularly brush our teeth to remove this plaque. However, the surfaces of our teeth, especially the back molars, are extremely uneven. A toothbrush may not effectively reach every nook and cranny. When plaque builds up in these hard to reach areas, it hardens into tartar, which is very difficult to remove. Tartar may become dark and make your teeth unsightly as well. A scale and polish can remove this tartar and make your teeth bright and shiny once more.  

Cleaning Your Teeth at Premium Dental Turkey

Have your teeth scaled and polished by a highly experienced dental hygienist at one of our clinics. This procedure is painless and very short. The dental hygienist would use an ultrasonic scaler working at super fast speeds to remove tartar from the gum line and surfaces of teeth. You will not feel the scaler and it will only be used for a few minutes. 

Once the electric scaling is done, your dental hygienist will use a set of instruments to manually remove tartar from areas the scaler cannot reach. The hygienist would ensure that all tartar is removed. This phase is also painless and won’t last more than five minutes. 

When food debris and tartar are completely removed, the dental hygienist will begin to polish the teeth. This is similar to using a toothbrush, expect that the dental hygienist normally uses a brush that rotates at high speeds with a fluoride toothpaste. The procedure is somewhat like polishing teeth. When done, your teeth will look bright and white with hardly any tartar present. 
Scaling and polishing teeth removes debris from your mouth in places that your toothbrush can’t reach. This procedure can considerably eliminate the risk of cavities or infections caused by unbrushed plaque or tartar. Your back molar teeth, which are usually hard to reach and have awkward grooves, will benefit the most. 
Polishing teeth will also leave them looking pearly white without requiring any teeth whitening agent. The procedure can restore the natural sheen of your teeth in a very short period of time at a considerably low cost. 
This painless procedure also leaves your mouth feeling clean and smooth, similar to what you would experience after a thorough brushing session. You will instantly feel much better if you have been experiencing a plaque problem. 
You can complete a full scale and polish at a Premium Dental Turkey clinic in a single day. A visit won’t require more than an hour.
