A beautiful smile is more than just cosmetic—it’s a sign of good oral health. At Dr. Sneha’s Dental Care, we believe in helping our patients maintain not only the appearance but also the health of their teeth. One of the simplest yet most important steps toward achieving a healthy smile is regular plaque and tartar removal.
Why Plaque and Tartar Removal is Essential
Plaque is a soft, sticky film of bacteria that forms on your teeth every day. If not cleaned properly, it hardens into tartar, which can lead to gum disease, cavities, and even tooth loss. Unfortunately, once tartar forms, it can't be removed by brushing and flossing alone—it requires professional cleaning.
What to Expect from a Tartar and Plaque Removal Session
When you visit Dr. Sneha’s Dental Care, our expert team will ensure that your teeth are thoroughly cleaned to remove any harmful buildup. Here’s what you can expect during the procedure:
Thorough Examination: Dr. Sneha will first examine your teeth and gums to assess the condition and identify any areas that need special attention.
Scaling and Polishing: Using professional tools, plaque and tartar will be carefully removed from both the surfaces and in between your teeth, followed by polishing to give your teeth a smooth, shiny finish.
Oral Health Guidance: Dr. Sneha will provide you with tips and techniques to maintain a healthy oral hygiene routine and prevent further plaque buildup.
Benefits of Regular Cleanings
Prevent Cavities and Gum Disease: Removing plaque and tartar helps prevent tooth decay and inflammation in the gums.
Fresher Breath: Bad breath is often caused by bacteria and plaque; regular cleanings can keep your mouth feeling fresh.
Brighten Your Smile: Polishing your teeth removes surface stains, helping you achieve a brighter, whiter smile.
