Cleaning, Scale & Polish at Antalya Dental Hospital, Turkey

Cleaning, Scale & Polish: What Are They, Benefits and Cost

A scale and polish can be done by your dentist or hygienist. The first ‘scrape’ stage removes the deposits of plaque and tartar. Often an ultrasound scraper is used first to get rid of the bulk of the tartar, followed by specialised hand held instruments to scrape away any stubborn remains.

Reinforce good oral hygiene habits.

Visiting your hygienist regularly for cleaning is very important in keeping your mouth healthy. Even if you clean your teeth every day, plaque can still build up in areas that are difficult to reach with your toothbrush alone.

Your hygienist is the expert in teeth cleaning, often called a ‘scale and polish’. They are especially trained to carry out preventative oral care and they have all the tools to remove the buildup of plaque and calculus.

Improve your personal oral hygiene with scale and polish.

During your scale and polish appointment, our hygienist will look for early signs of gum disease and will discuss ways to improve your personal oral hygiene and oral habits.

At the Dental Clinic Antalya, we recommend visiting our hygienist every 6 months for teeth cleaning, scale and polish to remove plaque buildup and reinforce good oral hygiene habits. For patients wearing braces, we advise them to schedule their hygiene appointments more frequently to keep their teeth in great health during their treatment.

What happens if the implant does not fuse with the bone?2022-02-06T21:26:27+03:00

This happens very rarely. If the implant becomes loose during the healing period, or just after, it is easily removed and your jaw will heal in the normal way. Once your jaw has healed, another implant can be placed there. Or the dentist can make a bridge, fitting it to the implanted false teeth that have been successful.

Will mouthwash help?2022-02-06T22:11:21+03:00

You should not use a mouthwash just to disguise bad breath. So, if you find that you are using a mouthwash all the time, talk to your dental team. There are many mouthwashes that are specially formulated to help prevent bad breath and gum disease. Some mouthwashes that contain chlorhexidine, and are recommended for gum disease, can cause tooth staining if you use them for a long time. It is important to read the manufacturer’s instructions or ask how to use them.
