Scaling & Polishing
Professional cleaning removes deposits that are difficult to manage with daily brushing alone. Your gum health determines the type of cleaning and whether further gum treatment is needed.
Meet Dr. Pankaj Gandhi
When might you need it?
- Plaque or hardened deposits identified at a check-up
- Staining or gum concerns needing assessment
A consultation establishes whether this treatment is suitable for you.
What to expect
- Examine your teeth and gums.
- Remove deposits using appropriate instruments.
- Discuss home cleaning and any further care needed.
Aftercare & follow-up
- Brush thoroughly and clean between your teeth.
- Follow the recall interval recommended for your gum health.
Your dentist will provide instructions suited to your treatment and recovery.
Before your visit
Is polishing the same as whitening?
No. Removing surface stains is different from changing the natural tooth shade.
How often do I need cleaning?
The interval depends on your individual dental and gum health.
What will the treatment cost?
The clinic will explain the treatment fee in Indian rupees (₹) after assessing your needs and agreeing the treatment plan.
Can cleaning replace daily brushing?
No. Professional cleaning complements daily brushing and cleaning between teeth; the clinic can demonstrate an appropriate routine.
What if my gums continue to bleed?
Arrange a dental review. Persistent bleeding needs assessment rather than assuming another polish is the only treatment required.
