At Klinik Pergigian Aswad, we provide professional scaling and polishing treatments in Kuantan to help you maintain optimal oral hygiene. Our gentle yet effective cleanings remove plaque, tartar, and surface stains — giving you a fresher, healthier smile while preventing long-term dental issues like gum disease and tooth decay.
Scaling and polishing, or known as teeth cleaning, is a fundamental dental procedure that removes plaque, tartar, and surface stains from your teeth. At Klinik Pergigian Aswad, we ensure each cleaning is thorough, painless, and personalised for your oral condition.
Scaling removes hardened tartar (calculus) from tooth surfaces and below the gumline. These deposits can’t be removed by brushing or flossing. In more advanced cases, root planing may be recommended for a deeper clean and healthier gums.
Polishing is the final step after scaling. It focuses on smoothing the tooth surfaces using a soft rotating brush or rubber cup together with a mildly abrasive polishing paste. Polishing does not change the natural color of your teeth or whiten them chemically.
Routine dental cleaning is generally recommended every 6 months, but you may need it more frequently if you’re exposed to common staining factors like coffee, tea, tobacco, or a high-sugar diet.
Bad breath that doesn’t go away may be caused by hidden plaque and bacteria under the gums. Scaling clears out debris and helps restore healthy gum tissue.
Coffee, tea, tobacco, and acidic foods can cause deep stains that brushing can't remove. Polishing restores your natural shine without harming enamel.
Gums that bleed during brushing are often a sign of early gum disease. Scaling removes harmful bacteria so your gums can heal naturally.
Sensitivity to cold or brushing could be caused by exposed roots or inflamed gums. Cleaning reduces buildup and helps calm the tissue.
Braces trap plaque and food debris, making cleaning harder. More frequent polishing helps avoid decalcification or decay around brackets.
At Klinik Pergigian Aswad, your teeth cleaning session is more than just a routine checkup , it’s a personalised experience tailored to your specific needs. Here’s what you can expect during your appointment:
