What is scaling and polishing?
This is a simple procedure, which is carried out using an ultrasonic scaler. Its tip vibrates to remove tartar and other deposits from your tooth surface. This does not damage the tooth enamel. Polishing your teeth follows this procedure. Scaling and Polishing is recommended ideally once every 6 months.
