What it is

Scaling uses an ultrasonic scaler to remove calculus — hardened plaque — from the tooth surfaces and just below the gum line. Polishing then smooths the enamel so plaque takes longer to re-accumulate.

Signs you may need this

  • Bleeding gums when you brush
  • Visible yellow or brown deposits, especially behind the lower front teeth
  • Persistent bad breath
  • Gums that look puffy or have receded
  • It has been more than a year since your last cleaning

What happens at your appointment

  1. Examination

    We check gum health, pocket depth and where deposits have built up, and point them out on the intraoral camera.

  2. Ultrasonic scaling

    Deposits are broken up with an ultrasonic scaler. Sensitive areas can be numbed if needed — tell us and we will.

  3. Polishing

    A polishing paste smooths the surfaces and lifts surface stains from tea, coffee, tobacco or paan.

  4. Technique review

    We show you the two or three spots you are consistently missing when brushing. This is the part that actually reduces your next visit's workload.

Recovery
None. Mild sensitivity for two to three days is common if there was significant build-up, and settles on its own.

Common questions — Teeth Cleaning & Polishing

How much does teeth cleaning cost in Lucknow?

Full-mouth scaling and polishing at Area Dental Clinic is ₹2,000. That is the complete procedure — there is no separate charge for polishing or for the examination that goes with it.

Does scaling loosen or damage teeth?

No — this is a common worry and it is the wrong way round. Heavy calculus can splint loose teeth together and mask gum disease. Once removed, teeth may briefly feel different or more sensitive, but the deposits were the problem, not the cleaning.

How often should I get my teeth cleaned?

Every six to twelve months for most people. If you smoke, chew tobacco or paan, have diabetes, or your gums bleed easily, every six months is safer. We will suggest an interval based on how much had built up this time.

Will cleaning make my teeth white?

Cleaning removes surface stains, so teeth often look noticeably brighter — but it restores your natural shade rather than changing it. If you want teeth lighter than their natural colour, that is bleaching, priced at ₹3,600.
