Teeth cleaning is also known as oral prophylaxis or teeth scaling is one of the most common dental treatments carried out by dentists in a dental hospital. This is a one of the preventive treatment procedures to improve the health of gums and bone which are supporting teeth. This  procedure involves removal of soft food debris (plaque), hardened food debris (calculus) and stains from teeth surfaces. Due to lack of proper access to some areas in the oral cavity, even with  proper brushing sometimes we notice deposits over teeth which become hard and attach  very firmly  to the teeth. These deposits require professional teeth scaling as they cannot go with brushing alone.

Professional teeth scaling is advised for every 6-12months. with regular teeth brushing we can clean deposits over the teeth surfaces and it is not possible to clear the food debris beneath the gum tissues. Debris which lies below gum level eventually create problem to gums and bone which are supporting the teeth. This will lead to bad smell from mouth, bleeding of gums, on long term may lead to loosening of teeth.
