Teeth cleaning, also known as dental scaling, removes plaque, tartar, and stains from teeth and below the gum line. It helps maintain healthy gums and fresh breath. This is one of the most important preventive dental treatments.
Teeth cleaning is performed using ultrasonic scalers and hand instruments to gently remove hardened deposits. The procedure is painless for most patients and usually takes 30–45 minutes. Polishing is done at the end to smooth tooth surfaces.
