Ultrasonic Scaling

Ultrasonic scaling is an advanced dental cleaning method designed to remove plaque, tartar, and debris from the teeth and gum line. The procedure uses a device that emits high-frequency sound waves, causing a small tip to vibrate and effectively break up stubborn buildup. In addition to removing hardened plaque and tartar, the ultrasonic scaler also features a water spray that cools the tip and rinses away debris or damage.

Ultrasonic scaling offers faster, more precise tartar removal compared to manual scaling, often with less discomfort. The high-frequency vibrations and water spray help efficiently break up buildup, cool the tip, and flush away debris, enhancing patient comfort. It's especially useful for those with heavy tartar, gum disease, or needing a deeper clean than regular brushing and flossing can provide.

Benefits of Ultrasonic scaling:

Improved Gum Health

Ultrasonic scaling is highly effective at removing plaque and tartar from beneath the gum line, which helps to significantly reduce gum inflammation and bleeding.

Enhanced Comfort

A key advantage of ultrasonic scaling is the water spray, which cools the scaler tip to prevent discomfort and rinses away debris and bacteria during the procedure.

Prevention of Further Dental Issues

Regular ultrasonic scaling helps maintain long-term dental health by removing plaque and tartar, preventing harmful bacteria, and reduces the risk of tooth decay.

Suitable for Deep Cleanings

Ultrasonic scaling is especially effective for patients with heavy tartar buildup in teeth, offering a deeper, more thorough clean than regular brushing and flossing.
