Frequently Asked Questions
Is teeth cleaning harmful to my teeth?
Teeth cleaning and polishing, when done by a trained and experienced professional like Dr Katara, is a safe procedure that revitalises oral hygiene and improves the overall functionality of your teeth while giving you back your endearing smile.
How often should I get my teeth cleaned and polished?
By global standards, it is recommended to undergo teeth cleaning and polishing at least once a year. In cases where you may have any crowns, bridges, braces or any other dental work done, once in six months is recommended.
What are the home care tips after teeth cleaning & polishing?
Dr Riddhi will highlight your case-specific home-care tips at the end of your cleaning session. Additionally, here are the commonly recommended steps to follow at home:
- Use an electric toothbrush unless you are asked not to use one by your dentist
- Floss your teeth with a water-flosser once a day
- Rinse after you eat anything
- Scrape your tongue to remove build-up daily
- Use a non-alcoholic mouthwash
Will the procedure hurt?
The procedure involves meticulously removing plaque and tartar buildup, even in hard-to-reach places. There will not be any digging, excavating or drilling of your teeth or anything around them. You may only feel a bit of heightened sensitivity which will be taken care of with a mild surface anaesthetic.
Can you polish your teeth at home?
Several DIY (Do It Yourself) home kits promise astonishing results. However, these claims hardly ever result in actual long-lasting results and may even cause severe complications that could be irreversible.
