Why do you brush your teeth? For the reason of cleaning your teeth right? Then why do you have to go to the dentist for teeth cleaning? Well, for the same reason but the only difference is that the dentist reaches tough spots in your teeth your brush may not be able to reach. Food gets stuck in these tough spots and dental plaque starts making home.
Dental plaque is a layer of bacteria that grows on the surface of your teeth. Brushing daily and properly might help you get rid of it but not entirely. This plaque can form into tartar which is a hardened version of the plaque layer. Tartar is a hotbed for more bacteria and can lead to calculus formation.
Basic tooth-cleaning techniques involve brushing and flossing. If you do this daily and in a proper way, your oral hygiene will be good. However, visiting a dental hygienist every six months is recommended. They indulge in techniques like tooth scaling, tooth polishing, and debridement.
Tooth scaling or root planing is nothing but deep cleaning of teeth that has heavy calculus and plaque buildup. It is done with conventional tools or ultrasonic equipment. Debridement is also the same thing except in scaling, the root of the teeth, if exposed, is made smooth.
Tooth polishing is also a part of tooth cleaning. Evidence of polishing teeth goes back to the Roman and Greek eras. However, modern dentistry is using polish to get rid of dental stains, remove plaque accumulation, and improve smile aesthetics.
A certain kind of paste is used for tooth polishing. Prophylactic paste that contains abrasives of all shapes and sizes is used. It comes in different flavors and variants. Some cater to teeth sensitivity while doing the primary function of polishing, whereas some cater to strength in teeth enamel, and so on.
Today, many professionals believe that tooth polishing should only be selective. That means polishing should only be done on the parts where the extrinsic stains are present. A full-mouth teeth polishing is deemed not necessary, but it is still practiced. However, selective polishing is recommended by many medical education institutions.
Polishing is also done for restorations however, it can have adverse effects on both teeth and restorations. Our saliva provides minerals to the fluoride-rich layer of enamel on our teeth. With repeated polishing, this layer can be compromised. That is why polishing pastes containing fluoride is available. In restorations, polishing paste may damage the material that it is made from.
It is recommended that you visit a dentist every 6 months for regular check-ups. Your tooth cleaning and polishing can be a part of that visit. Getting tooth scaling and polishing done will prevent all types of dental problems. Some of them are:
