Dental Scaling & Polishing (Cleaning)
Dental cleaning process is known as Scaling & Polishing. Scaling is a dental process that involves removing the calculus deposits or stains on the teeth. Polishing, on the other hand, is the process of smoothing the teeth as scaling can make the teeth feel rough. During this time, the dentist may also provide additional protection to the teeth by applying a small amount of fluoride. This process takes 10-15 minutes.
Teeth whitening process will take 15-20 minutes.
