Professional Teeth Cleaning

“The Foundation of a Healthy Smile Is Perfectly Clean Gums.”

Daily brushing and flossing are essential parts of oral care; however, plaque that accumulates in hard-to-reach areas hardens over time and turns into tartar. At Dentorjin Dental Clinic in our Istanbul and Tirana branches, we use the latest ultrasonic technologies to remove these deposits from your teeth and gums, helping you achieve a fresher and healthier smile.

Why Should Tartar Be Removed?

Tartar is hardened bacterial plaque combined with minerals in saliva and cannot be removed by brushing alone. If left untreated, it may lead to:

• Gum Recession: Tartar pushes the gum tissue downward, exposing the tooth roots.
• Bad Breath: Bacterial accumulation is one of the main causes of chronic bad breath (halitosis).
• Tooth Loss: In the long term, it can cause bone loss around the teeth, leading to loosening and eventual tooth loss.
• Aesthetic Problems: When combined with stains from coffee, tea, and smoking, tartar creates an unpleasant appearance.

Professional Cleaning Process at Dentorjin

We ensure maximum hygiene with our 3-step professional cleaning protocol:

1. Ultrasonic Cleaning: Using high-frequency sound wave devices, we gently detach tartar from the tooth surface without damaging the enamel.
2. Air-Flow (Pressurized Spray): We deeply clean stains from coffee, tea, and smoking in hard-to-reach areas using a special air-water-powder mixture.
3. Polishing: With professional polishing pastes, we smooth the tooth surface. This step enhances brightness while also delaying new plaque formation.

Why Is Regular Cleaning Important?

Tartar removal is not only an aesthetic procedure but also a preventive treatment. With regular check-ups and cleaning every six months, you can prevent costly surgical procedures and tooth loss in the future.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• Does professional cleaning damage tooth enamel? No. Professional cleaning does not scratch or wear down enamel. It only removes foreign deposits (tartar) from the surface. The real damage comes from untreated tartar and resulting gum inflammation.
• Will I feel pain during the procedure? It is generally a very comfortable procedure that does not require anesthesia. If you have advanced sensitivity due to gum recession, local anesthesia or numbing sprays may be used for your comfort.
• Will my teeth get dirty faster after cleaning? No. The polishing process smooths the tooth surface. However, if proper oral hygiene is not maintained, tartar may naturally form again over time.
