About Scaling
Simply put, when you have a dental problem that is beyond the scope of general dentistry, you will need dental implants and oral surgery.
Remove tartar and plaque:Tartar is a breeding ground for bacteria, and if it accumulates over time, it can cause inflammation and bleeding of the gums, affecting periodontal health.
Prevent periodontal disease and bad breath:Regular scaling can deeply clean the crevices and gingival grooves, effectively preventing periodontal disease and improving bad breath caused by bacterial growth.
Our Treatments
Scaling Overview
Oral examination and tartar removal
Ideal for addressing "periodontal problems" or "underlying oral disease" with the goal of ensuring overall oral health.
- Comprehensive Oral Examination:The dentist will assess periodontal health and potential oral problems through an intra- and extra-oral examination.
- Ultrasonic scaling:A high-frequency vibrating instrument is used to break up and remove tartar and plaque from the surface of the teeth and around the gums.
Dental Polishing and Professional Hygiene
Ideal for solving "plaque-prone" or "improper brushing habits" problems, the goal is to maintain smooth teeth and provide at-home care instructions.
- Dental polishing:Use a professional polisher and polishing paste to smooth the surface of your teeth so that it is less likely to hold on to stains.
- Dental health guidance:Your dentist will help you maintain your daily oral health by instructing you on the proper way to brush, floss and interdental brushing based on the condition of your mouth.
Detailed Scaling Procedure
What is the procedure for scaling treatment?
01
Initial Diagnosis and Assessment
This is the starting point and the most crucial step in any treatment.
- Comprehensive Oral Examination:Your dentist will look at your oral condition, periodontal health and medical history through an intra- and extra-oral examination.
- X-rays are taken:If your dentist suspects that the decay has spread to the pulp, he or she will recommend x-rays to confirm the depth and location of the decay.
- Develop a treatment plan:Based on all the data from the examination, the dentist will discuss with you and explain in detail the treatment plan, costs and expected results.
02
Ultrasonic and Manual Cleaning
This is the core step of the treatment and is designed to completely remove tartar and plaque.
- Ultrasonic scaling:A high-frequency vibrating instrument is used to break up and remove tartar and plaque from the surface of the teeth and around the gums.
- Manual scraping:For hard-to-reach areas or stubborn calculus, the dentist will use a manual scraper for more detailed removal.
- Dental polishing:After removing the calculus, the dentist will use a professional polishing device and polishing paste to smooth the surface of the tooth so that it is less likely to hold stains.
03
Follow-up Care and Dental Health Guidance
After surgery, good recovery and regular follow-up are key to ensuring the success of your treatment.
- Dental health guidance:Your dentist will help you maintain your daily oral health by instructing you on the proper way to brush, floss and interdental brushing based on your oral condition.
- Regular return visits:Your dentist will arrange regular visits to check on your periodontal health and ensure that your teeth are cleaned thoroughly.
