Full mouth scaling and polishing is a dental procedure aimed at thoroughly cleaning the teeth and gums to remove plaque, tartar, and stains. It’s typically performed by a dental hygienist or dentist and involves two main steps:
Scaling: This involves the removal of plaque and tartar buildup from the teeth, both above and below the gumline. Plaque is a sticky film of bacteria that forms on the teeth, and if not removed, it can harden into tartar, which can lead to gum disease and tooth decay.
Polishing: After scaling, the teeth are polished to remove surface stains and create a smooth surface. Polishing also helps to remove any remaining plaque and gives the teeth a clean, shiny appearance.We currenly at CBD Nairobi at Nairobi City centre building, ronald Ngala street.
Full mouth scaling and polishing are important for maintaining oral health and preventing gum disease and tooth decay. It’s usually recommended as part of a regular dental cleaning schedule, which typically involves visits to the dentist every six months for most people. However, the frequency may vary depending on individual oral health needs.
