Scaling & Polishing in Singapore - Because Your Teeth Deserve a Spa Day Too!

At my clinic in Singapore, scaling and polishing isn’t just about dental health, it’s a spa treat for your teeth.
A pampering session for your pearly whites minus the cucumber slices. In just one visit, I’ll sweep away plaque, polish every tooth till it shines, and send you off with a smile that feels brand new.

Scaling & Polishing: The Deep Clean Your Teeth Secretly Need

Scaling and Polishing is like giving your teeth a proper spa day. 

During scaling, I’ll use special dental tools to gently remove plaque and stubborn tartar that your toothbrush can’t touch, especially around your gumline. 

Then comes polishing, my favourite part, where I smooth your teeth with a spinning brush or Prophyjet, blasting away surface stains and leaving them shiny and fresh. It’s quick, painless, and helps prevent plaque from returning.

See me every six months, and I’ll make sure your smile stays bright and your gums stay healthy.

The Not-So-Secret Reason Your Teeth Need Scaling and Polishing

Without regular dental cleaning and polishing, tartar builds up and can cause gum inflammation, bad breath, and tooth decay. Professional scaling and polishing in Singapore helps prevent these issues while keeping your smile fresh, bright, and healthy.

  • Fresher Breath
    By removing plaque and tartar, professional teeth cleaning and polishing eliminate the bacteria that cause bad breath. You’ll leave my clinic with a clean mouth and confident, fresh breath.

 

  • Healthier Gums
    Tartar buildup can irritate your gums and lead to gum disease. Regular dental scaling and polishing in Singapore reduces this risk, helping your gums stay strong and inflammation-free.

 

  • Cleaner, Brighter Teeth
    Scaling removes stubborn tartar and surface stains, while polishing smooths your teeth for a natural shine. Together, these treatments restore your teeth’s brightness and freshness.

 

  • Prevents Cavities
    Removing plaque and tartar through professional teeth cleaning and polishing helps prevent tooth decay before it starts, saving you from painful cavities and costly treatments later.

What Happens When You Book Scaling and Polishing with Me in Singapore? (It’s More Fun Than You Think!)

When you come to me for scaling and polishing in Singapore, here’s the smooth and simple process you can expect:

  • Oral Examination
    First, I’ll give your teeth and gums a thorough check-up to spot any plaque, tartar, or sneaky stains hiding around. This helps me tailor the cleaning just for you.

 

  • Scaling
    Next up, I’ll use a gentle vibrating scaler that sprays a little water while scraping away all that stubborn tartar clinging to your teeth and gumline. Say goodbye to buildup and hello to a fresh mouth!

 

  • Polishing
    Finally, I’ll smooth your teeth with a special gritty paste and a soft rubber cup, polishing away surface stains and leaving your smile feeling silky, shiny, and looking brighter. If there are any tough stains left, I’ll suggest extra options like airflow stain removal or whitening.

 

  • Finishing Touch
    To seal the deal, a protective fluoride coating completes your dental spa day!

How Often Should You Treat Your Teeth to Scaling and Polishing?​

Think of teeth scaling and polishing in Singapore like a bi-annual spa day for your smile, every six months keeps your teeth happy and tartar away.

If your gums throw a tantrum or plaque’s a speedy builder, we might need to see each other a bit more often!
