Common Causes of Ultrasonic Scaling:

  • Build-up of plaque and tartar on the teeth
  • Stains from tobacco, coffee, or certain foods
  • Poor oral hygiene practices
  • Genetic predisposition to dental issues
  • Dental conditions like periodontitis or gingivitis

How Does Ultrasonic Scaling work

Ultrasonic scaling involves using a hand-held device that emits ultrasonic vibrations. These vibrations create shock waves, breaking down and dislodging plaque, tartar, and stains from the teeth. Water irrigation helps flush away the debris, leaving the teeth and gums clean and refreshed.

  • Removal of plaque and tartar deposits
  • Stain removal from the tooth surfaces
  • Gum pocket disinfection
  • Removal of bacterial biofilm
  • Smoothing of tooth surfaces for easier cleaning

Treatment steps

  1. Oral examination and assessment
  2. Ultrasonic scaling procedure to remove plaque and tartar
  3. Stain removal using ultrasonic instruments
  4. Gum pocket disinfection with an antibacterial solution
  5. Post-treatment instructions and oral hygiene recommendations

Session: Ultrasonic scaling can be completed in a single session.

Duration: 30 minutes to an hour.

Painful or Painless: Ultrasonic scaling is typically a painless procedure. Some individuals may experience mild sensitivity or discomfort during the treatment, but it is generally well-tolerated.

During the course of having laser hair removal sessions, we will only allow you to shave or trim your hair. This is because waxing and plucking will pull the hair out of the root meaning the laser will be less effective at your next session.
