Dental scaling is the process of professionally cleaning the plaque and tartar that accumulate on the teeth. The plaque on the teeth, food residue and bacteria in the mouth harden over time and form tartar (dental tartar). Dental calculus can cause gum inflammation (gingivitis) and tooth decay. Dental scaling is a procedure performed by dentists or dental hygienists that removes tartar deposits from the teeth and gums. This procedure should be done regularly to maintain oral health.
Tartar removal is usually performed by a dentist or dental hygienist. The cleaning process usually consists of two stages. In the first stage, the teeth are meticulously examined to detect tartar deposits. Then, tartar is gently cleaned from the surface of the teeth and gums with special tools and ultrasonic devices. The ultrasonic device uses high-frequency vibrations to loosen tartar. Finally, plaque and tartar residue remaining on the surface of the teeth are removed with manual tools and the teeth are polished. At the end of the process, the teeth are smoother and leave a fresh feeling in the mouth.
Dental tartar cleaning is very important for maintaining oral health. Over time, dental tartar can cause inflammation in the gums, which can trigger the onset of gum disease. Gum disease can cause serious problems that can lead to tooth loss. In addition, dental tartar roughens the surface of the teeth, allowing more plaque to accumulate, which can lead to tooth decay. Dental tartar cleaning keeps your teeth healthy by removing tartar buildup and reduces the risk of gum disease. It also helps eliminate bad breath (halitosis) and improves overall oral hygiene.

Tartar cleaning is a procedure that should be done regularly to protect oral health and ensure the cleanliness of the teeth. It is generally recommended that tartar cleaning be done at least once a year. However, for people who pay attention to oral hygiene and brush their teeth regularly and use dental floss, this period can be once every two years. Tartar accumulation can vary depending on the person’s oral structure, lifestyle and eating habits. Factors such as smoking and consuming too much sugary foods can cause tartar to accumulate more quickly. Therefore, the frequency of tartar cleaning should be determined according to the dentist’s recommendations according to personal needs.

When tartar cleaning is neglected, it can become more difficult and expensive to treat with dental intervention. Therefore, regular tartar cleaning is one of the most important steps in maintaining oral health.

Brushing and flossing your teeth regularly after tartar cleaning helps prevent new deposits from forming. Following the care instructions recommended by the dentist contributes greatly to maintaining oral health after the procedure.
