Tartar is a plaque that is placed on the surface of the teeth resulting from the build-up of bacteria. The latter produce acid and negatively impact the enamel, softening it and making it more sensitive to cavities. They also cause inflammation and bleeding gums. Do you suffer from inflammation of the gum tissue? Are your gums red, swollen or sore? Have you noticed bleeding when brushing, bad breath, or a bad taste in your mouth? This is necessarily due to bacteria or certain foods that contribute to the irritation or inflammation of the gums. These can lead to tooth loss if not treated as soon as possible. Tooth scaling is a common way to fix it if the gums haven’t been damaged yet!

What is that?

Tooth scaling is a common non-surgical treatment that prevents gum disease from getting worse. It removes plaque and tartar from your teeth and helps your gums regain their health.

At the Targa Dental Clinic, a thorough examination of your mouth is essential before starting the procedure, which is carried out with ultrasound and manual instruments. The dentist then removes the bacteria from the plaque with sonic vibrations from the surface of the tooth and below the gum line. A manual instrument is then used to remove the remainder.

Steps:

  • Preparation of teeth for tartar removal treatment, if necessary your dental doctor will use anesthesia
  • Scaling ultrasound
  • Special tooth polishing
  • Rinsing

Results

After descaling, your smile will be fresher and your teeth will be cleaned well. The result is aesthetic and immediately visible. However, minimal pain, bleeding, and mild swelling may occur for a few days after treatment. Your dentist will recommend that you use mouthwash or toothpaste to alleviate this discomfort. It is important to follow proper oral hygiene to prevent plaque reformation, and a check-up with your dentist is also essential to examine the gums and make sure your mouth has healed properly.

How to prevent tartar buildup on the teeth?

Good hygiene, dental check-ups and rapid tartar removal can be more than enough to prevent tartar build-up and maintain a bright smile.
