Dental tartar is a mineralized layer of dental plaque, a sticky and colorless layer of bacteria and carbohydrates that constantly forms on teeth and is the main cause of caries and gum disease.
- Tartar not only poses a threat to teeth and gums, but is also a cosmetic problem. The porous surface of the mineralized plaque layer is easily discolored by tea, coffee, or nicotine, creating darker bands near the gum surface (supragingival tartar).
- However, tartar hidden under the gums is more dangerous, as it can cause inflammation and consequently lead to periodontal disease,
- We recommend removing tartar using ultrasound. This treatment method effectively cleanses teeth and protects them against decay.
- Scaling is complemented by the removal of deposits (sandblasting),
- The treatment is complemented by varnishing the teeth with a special preparation,
- Treatments used systematically provide excellent cosmetic results.
