About Scale and Clean<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Regular teeth scale and clean treatment proves an effective way of keeping yourself and your family safe from\u00a0tooth decay<\/a>\u00a0and gum diseases. All About Dentistry patients\u2019 are enrolled in a recall program where we remind them to see us every 4-6 months for a teeth examination, scale and clean treatment, fluoride treatment ( if necessary ) x-ray. To maintain your teeth for life, it is essential to minimise plaque and tartar level, which is difficult to remove with everyday brushing and flossing. The frequency of visits needed depends on the circumstances of your oral care and ability to keep your mouth plaque and bacteria free.<\/p>

What to do before and after teeth scale and clean treatment at All About Dentistry<\/h3>

Before your Treatment<\/h4>
  1. Brush and floss thoroughly: While our team will remove the hardened plaque that you could not reach at home. Maintaining your daily oral hygiene routine ensures we can focus on the deeper clean.<\/li>
  2. Hydrate well: Drink water helps keep your mouth fresh and comfortable during the appointment.<\/li>
  3. Discuss concerns with our doctors: Let us know if you have sensitive teeth, gum issues or any medical conditions!<\/li><\/ol>

    After your Treatment<\/h4>
    1. Avoid eating or drinking for 30 minutes if fluoride was applied: This gives the fluoride time to strengthen your enamel.<\/li>
    2. Choose soft foods for the first few hours: Your gums may feel a little tender after a deep clean.<\/li>
    3. Continue brushing and flossing gently everyday: Good daily habits prevent plaque from building up between visits.<\/li>
    4. Stay on track with recall visits: Our team will remind you when it\u2019s time for your next examinations, teeth scale and clean treatement, usually every 4-6 months depending on your individual needs.<\/li><\/ol>

      Frequently Asked Questions<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
      \n\t\t\t\t\t
      What is a Scale & Clean?<\/span><\/a><\/i><\/span><\/i><\/span><\/span><\/h5>

      A Scale & Clean is a professional dental cleaning that removes plaque and hardened tartar (calculus) from the teeth and along the gumline. It helps reduce gum inflammation, freshens breath, and keeps your teeth and gums healthier between check-ups.<\/p><\/div><\/div>

      Does a Scale & Clean hurt?<\/span><\/a><\/i><\/span><\/i><\/span><\/span><\/h5>

      Most people find it comfortable. If your gums are inflamed or you have heavy build-up, you may feel mild sensitivity during the clean. We work gently and can adjust the technique to keep you comfortable.<\/p><\/div><\/div>

      How often should I get a Scale & Clean?<\/span><\/a><\/i><\/span><\/i><\/span><\/span><\/h5>

      For most patients, every 6 months is recommended. If you have gum disease, braces\/aligners, or build-up that forms quickly, you may benefit from more frequent visits (e.g., every 3\u20134 months). We\u2019ll advise the best schedule for you.<\/p><\/div><\/div>

      What should I do after my Scale & Clean?<\/span><\/a><\/i><\/span><\/i><\/span><\/span><\/h5>

      You can eat and drink as normal, but it\u2019s best to avoid very hot\/cold foods if your teeth feel sensitive. Keep up good brushing and flossing, and follow any personalised advice we give\u2014especially for hard-to-reach areas where plaque builds up easily.<\/p><\/div><\/div>

      Can I eat or drink straight after a Scale & Clean?<\/span><\/a><\/i><\/span><\/i><\/span><\/span><\/h5>

      Yes. Most people can eat and drink normally right after. If we applied fluoride, it\u2019s best to avoid eating or drinking for about 30 minutes. If your gums are a little tender or your teeth feel sensitive, stick to soft foods and avoid very hot\/cold, acidic, or spicy foods for the rest of the day.\u00a0<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
