Tartar Cleaning

Tartar cleaning is the removal of tartar that builds up in the mouth because of inadequate oral hygiene.

Tartar cleaning is an important procedure for removing plaque that has accumulated and hardened on the teeth. This cleaning helps prevent tooth decay, gum disease and bad breath, and also improves the health of the teeth and gums. During the cleaning, the dentist or dental hygienist removes the plaque and tartar.

Tartar cleaning is important for preventing oral health problems such as periodontal disease and for improving overall oral health. Professional dental care requires regular visits to the dentist and good oral hygiene habits, which protect and improve the health of the teeth and gums in the long term.

What harm does tartar cause?

• Tartar forms where the tooth meets the gum. This causes inflammation of the gum in the area where the tartar is located
• It leads to gum disease and gum recession
• It causes bleeding of the gums in the area where it is located
• If it is not removed, tartar causes the jawbone that holds the teeth to break down over time, leading to tooth loss
• Because of poor oral hygiene, it causes bad breath
• It can lead to tooth decay
• Because tartar creates a rough, sticky surface, it causes staining more easily in the area where it is located
