Scaling and Polishing

Scaling& polishing can produce some gum recession and/or detachment of gingival (gum) attachment fibres, which can expose the dentin at a tooth's base. Also Normal healthy teeth can become transiently more sensitive than usual because it usually removes the shielding pellicle layer coating from the tooth enamel. Therefore, if you are having Dentist Scale& Polish your teeth, we ask that you wait 14-days for your gums to come back and the pellicle layer to regrow before your whitening procedure.
