Dental Cleaning

Teeth cleaning intends to remove plaque, tartar and stains that have accumulated on the teeth over the time. Even with routine brushing and flossing of teeth and gums, tartar can develop. The dental cleaning is a crucial part of good oral hygiene and is needed periodically to maintain the health of the teeth and gums. Usually, teeth cleaning is recommended every 6 months to reduce the likelihood of periodontal disease progressing.

Tartar, or dental calculus, is a hard calcified deposit that forms on the teeth and can contribute to their decay. Dentists use specialized instruments to remove these deposits without causing harm to the teeth. The specialized dental instruments are put through a stringent cleaning, disinfecting, and sterilizing procedure to ensure safety and quality control.
