Teeth cleaning – Scaling and Polishing
It is essential to maintain a high standard of dental hygiene and take good care of your teeth and gums to ensure they remain in the best possible condition.
To keep the mouth and teeth healthy, we recommend booking an appointment every six months. It helps maximise your oral health and removes any build-up of plaque or tartar, which leads to nasty conditions like gum disease.
Professional dental cleanings (dental prophylaxis) appointment will include a dental exam and the following:
- Removal of calculus (tartar):
- Removal of plaque:
- Teeth polishing:
Calculus is hardened plaque that has been left on the tooth for some time and is now firmly attached to the tooth surface. Calculus forms above and below the gum line and can only be removed with special dental instruments.
Plaque is a sticky, almost invisible film that forms on the teeth. It is a growing colony of living bacteria, food debris, and saliva. The bacteria produce toxins (poisons) that inflame the gums. This inflammation is the start of periodontal disease!
Remove stain and plaque that is not otherwise removed during tooth brushing and scaling.
Improved Dental Hygiene That Can Brighten Teeth & Remove Surface Stains
Here at Agha Dental Care, we offer advanced tooth and gum cleaning called Air Polish, which is only carried out by a dentist.
Air Polish is basically a jet wash for your teeth. It’s the perfect solution to effectively remove surface stains on the front and back of the teeth.
The dentist will use a fine jet of compressed air, water and power particles that can lift stains caused by coffee, tea, red wine and tobacco. Also its important to mention it’s non-invasive and completely pain-free?
