WHAT IS DENTAL SCALING?
Dental scaling is a dental procedure aimed at removing plaque and tartar buildup on the tooth surface and beneath the gums. The scaling process usually takes about 30 – 60 minutes and is often combined with polishing to ensure comprehensive cleaning and optimal effectiveness.
Dental scaling helps prevent periodontal disease and tooth decay, improves breath, and maintains overall oral health. This procedure is generally painless and is recommended every 6 months to protect oral health.

WITH ULTRASONIC TECHNOLOGY

Dental scaling using advanced ultrasonic technology provides a superior cleaning experience without causing bleeding or tooth sensitivity.
- Superior effectiveness: High-frequency ultrasonic waves (32,000-40,000 Hz) gently break down and detach plaque, even in hard-to-reach areas.
- Less discomfort: Micro-vibrations gently disrupt tartar, minimizing discomfort.
- Preserves enamel: Only targets tartar without invading natural tooth structure.
- Time efficiency: High-frequency oscillations and water spray reduce treatment time by 30-50%.
- Minimizes gum damage: Ultrasonic vibrations create tiny bubbles that penetrate between teeth and gums, cleaning bacteria and plaque without pain.
