Scaling and Polishing North Point, Hong Kong
Did you know that as you drink and eat, small particles of food and drink can get stuck on your teeth? If you don’t brush and floss regularly, these particles can form a sticky film called plaque. Plaque is made up of bacteria, which release acids that can eat away at your tooth enamel, causing cavities.
If plaque isn’t removed, it can harden into calculus, also called tartar. Once calculus forms, it can only be removed with a professional teeth cleaning, which entails teeth scaling and dental polishing.
