Description

Scaling and cleaning, also known as dental prophylaxis, is a routine dental procedure aimed at removing plaque, tartar (hardened plaque), and surface stains from the teeth. This process, performed by a dental professional, goes beyond regular brushing and flossing to thoroughly clean areas that are difficult to reach at home. By regularly removing plaque and tartar, scaling and cleaning help prevent cavities, gum disease, and bad breath, contributing to overall oral health.
