Protect your gums, prevent bad breath, and instantly brighten your smile with expert ultrasonic cleaning in Tauheed Commercial, DHA Karachi.
No matter how thoroughly you brush and floss, plaque inevitably builds up in hard-to-reach areas of your mouth. Over time, this soft plaque mineralizes and hardens into a substance called calculus (or tartar). Once tartar forms, it cannot be removed by regular toothbrushing.
Teeth Scaling is the professional clinical procedure used to safely remove this hardened tartar from the surfaces of your teeth and just beneath the gumline. At Dr. Shahid Islam Dental Clinic, we utilize state-of-the-art ultrasonic scalers that use high-frequency vibrations and a gentle water stream to break down calculus instantly.
| Treatment Type | Price (PKR) |
|---|---|
| Basic Scaling & Polishing (Routine) | PKR 8,000 |
| Deep Scaling (Heavy Tartar/Smoker's Stain) | PKR 10,000 – 15,000 |
| Root Planing (Per Quadrant) | From PKR 5,000 |
Tartar is highly porous and acts as a breeding ground for harmful bacteria. Ignoring tartar buildup leads directly to severe oral health complications, including:
The bacteria in tartar inflame the gums, causing them to swell, turn red, and bleed easily when brushing.
Trapped bacteria produce sulfur compounds, resulting in persistent bad breath that mouthwash cannot cure.
If left untreated, simple gingivitis advances to severe periodontitis. The infection travels beneath the gums, destroying the bone holding your teeth.
Immediately following a professional scaling and polishing session, your teeth are clean and highly receptive. This is the optimal time to apply a professional Fluoride Varnish. Fluoride therapy is highly recommended for both adults and children. It remineralizes microscopic defects in the enamel, dramatically reduces tooth sensitivity, and makes your teeth highly resistant to future acidic attacks and cavities.
No. Professional scaling is completely safe. The ultrasonic scaler is designed to only vibrate off the hardened tartar without scratching the natural enamel underneath.
This is a myth. Scaling does not cause loose teeth. If teeth feel slightly mobile after a deep clean, it means heavy tartar was artificially binding them together. Removing the tartar is critical to saving the bone structure.
The standard recommendation is every 6 months. However, heavy smokers or patients with a history of gingivitis should schedule cleanings every 3 to 4 months.
It is generally painless. You will feel light vibrations and scraping. If you have severe gum inflammation or sensitive teeth, we can apply a topical numbing gel to ensure comfort.
