Tooth Scaling
When tartars are not scaled, they can negatively affect our health. Especially these tartars cause bad breath. If not taken care of, they can also cause us to lose our teeth. People who get this treatment usually have gingival bleeding in the first days of it. The reason for this is that gums become more sensitive after scaling. Of course, this problem can be resolved in a short time with good oral care.
IS SCALING UNHEALTHY?
The misconception that scaling damages the teeth is one of the most common issues that patients consult with doctors. This thought is completely wrong. But understandable. Damaged root surfaces covered with calculus are cleaned after scaling. And they reconnect with the oral environment. These areas, which were less affected by cold and hot before, can feel the cold and hot more at first. When the patient carries out a good oral hygiene, this problem fades away. So, scaling does not harm the teeth. Types of equipment used in scaling both have no abrasive features and emit ultrasonic vibrations on the tartar that move them away from teeth.
