What Is Professional Teeth Cleaning & Scaling?
Professional teeth cleaning and scaling is a clinical hygiene procedure that uses ultrasonic instruments to safely remove hardened tartar (calculus), plaque, and surface stains from teeth and below the gumline. Even with diligent daily brushing and flossing, minerals in your saliva combine with bacterial plaque to form calculus — a hard, calcified deposit that cannot be removed by home toothbrushing. Tartar harbors bacterial colonies that trigger gum inflammation, chronic bad breath (halitosis), and destructive periodontal disease.
Professional dental scaling at Premier Dental Care utilizes gentle piezoelectric ultrasonic scalers to vibrate tartar and superficial stains away from enamel surfaces and beneath the gumline. Followed by diamond-paste polishing, scaling restores smooth tooth surfaces where bacteria struggle to reattach.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does scaling weaken or thin my teeth?
No, this is a common myth! Ultrasonic scaling utilizes sound wave vibrations to shake calculus loose; it does not cut or remove healthy tooth enamel.
Will my teeth be sensitive after cleaning?
Mild sensitivity to cold water can occur for 24–48 hours if heavy tartar was insulating the root surfaces, but this quickly subsides as gums heal.
How often should I get my teeth cleaned?
For most healthy individuals, once every 6 months is ideal. Patients with history of gum disease may benefit from 3–4 month maintenance.
