Comfortable scaling without pain

Possible even if you have dental phobia

Painless scaling

Scaling is a treatment that is

essential for protecting dental health.

However,

many people put it off because of misconceptions such as

scaling sensitivity, scaling pain, or teeth spacing after scaling,

and because of a vague fear of the dentist.

In fact, scaling is a relatively simple procedure,

but its effect on oral health is very significant.

In particular, there is now a painless scaling method,

so treatment can be received without dental phobia.

Scaling is an essential dental treatment, so through this post, take a look and if you have been hesitating, be sure to get treatment!

Why scaling is necessary

If you look at why scaling is needed through the stages, it becomes much easier to understand.

Healthy stage:

To maintain healthy pink gums, it is essential to remove plaque and tartar through regular scaling.

Early gingivitis:

If you see bleeding gums when brushing and they are swollen, it is already a warning sign. Scaling is needed as soon as possible.

Mid-stage periodontitis:

This is the stage where plaque and tartar build up, inflammation becomes severe, and teeth begin to loosen. Surgical treatment may need to be considered.

Late-stage periodontitis:

The gum bone is severely damaged and teeth may fall out. At this stage, only surgical treatment is already possible.

In other words, scaling is most effective when done in advance as a preventive measure.

Scaling treatment method

If tartar is only above the gums,

it can be simply removed with an ultrasonic scaler.

The instrument used at this time

may look sharp,

but it is not a tool that grinds down teeth.

So you do not need to worry about tooth damage.

However, during the procedure,

you may feel discomfort such as pain, sensitivity, or gagging,

but this is a normal and temporary reaction.

Symptoms may vary depending on the amount and location of the tartar,

and they will disappear over time,

so there is no need to worry too much.

Before the procedure, it is good to brush lightly before visiting the clinic.

For about one day after the procedure,

it is helpful to avoid cold or irritating foods.

There may be slight bleeding, but it is a normal reaction,

and it subsides within one or two days.

Regular scaling is usually recommended every 6 months, but it can vary depending on the condition of the gums, so it is best to follow the medical staff’s advice.

Painless scaling that reduces pain

For those who are sensitive to pain or have dental phobia, there is painless scaling.

Because a mouth-rinse type anesthetic solution is used in the mouth to numb the gums and oral surface before proceeding, scaling can be received comfortably without pain or discomfort.

It is especially suitable for those with severe sensitivity, weak gums, or a strong gag reflex.
