Tooth Stone Cleaning What?
The hardening of the bacterial plaques on the tooth enamel and becoming a deposit is called tartar. If the bacterial plaque adhering to the teeth is not cleaned, it turns into tartar after a while. It causes both dark areas around the gums and swollen, irregular and bleeding appearance of the gums. In order to prevent these from being observed, it is necessary to go to the dentist at regular intervals (once every 6 months) and have it cleaned.
After calculus cleaning, complete care is performed with airflow (stain cleaning), polish, tongue cleaning, dental floss, tongue cleaning and fluoride application to strengthen tooth enamel.
