Professional cleaning of gums and polishing of teeth is done to give you healthy and a bright smile. Our expert doctors can help you with various other gum and bone issues.
It is one of the Smile designing procedures which helps in lightening the colour of your teeth by removing internal as well as external stains. Teeth discolour for a number of reasons; they may become stained or darkened by food, tobacco, injury or aging. Various methods of bleaching like IN OFFICE bleaching or AT HOME bleaching kits are available to alter the shade of your teeth to the preferred degree of whiteness, appropriate to your age and skin colour.
Plaque keeps forming on your teeth, but if teeth aren’t cleaned well, the bacteria in plaque can cause your gums to become inflamed and your gums will pull away from your teeth and form spaces called pockets. Plaque once trapped in these pockets cannot be removed with regular brushing leading to further gum disease.
If untreated, gum disease could lead to bone and tooth loss.
Scaling is when your dentist removes all the plaque and tartar (hardened plaque) above and below the gumline, making sure to clean all the way down to the bottom of the pocket, Root planning is done for smoothing out your teeth roots to help your gums reattach to your teeth.
