More details:
    Daily habits such as smoking cigarettes or drinking coffee can lead to stains on the tooth surface. Incorrect brushing techniques as well as poor oral hygiene can contribute to the accumulation of bacteria, eventually resulting in plaque. Bleeding gums brushing and bad breath are often signs of excessive dental plaque and gum infection, also an indication that your teeth need cleaning.

What are teeth cleaning? How often do I need it?
    Professional teeth cleaning include both scaling and polishing. Basically ultrasonic vibrations are used to dislodge both plaque and tartar from the tooth surface. As the vibrations are extremely fine the process does not damage the tooth surface. Normally teeth cleaning are recommended every 6 months.

What problems can arise in the absence of regular scaling and polishing?
    Plaque and tartar contain a vast colony of bacteria which can cause gum infection. If not treated in a timely manner the situation may deteriorate and cause severe gum disease, even the complete loss of teeth.
    Regular teeth cleaning is vital to the health of both your gums and teeth, it also improves the appearance of your teeth and prevents bad breath. Better still, it presents a convenient opportunity for a general dental checkup.

Why do my teeth feel sensitive after teeth cleaning?
    After teeth cleaning, some cervical areas of the teeth, previously covered by plaque, may be exposed and become sensitive, and it will recover within a few days.

Will regular teeth cleaning damage my teeth?
    No, ultrasonic vibrations gently break down the plaque, rather than an actual physical “scaling”. You can be rest assured that the procedure is perfectly safe.
