Frequently asked
Does scaling damage enamel?
No. Scaling removes hardened tartar, not enamel. Teeth may feel a little sensitive for a day or two.
How often should I get a cleaning?
Every six months for most people; every three to four months if you have gum disease.
Price: a plan and estimate are given at consultation. Individual results vary; your dentist will explain the risks and alternatives before you decide.
