Scaling and Polishing in DHA Karachi
Scaling and polishing is a professional dental cleaning that removes plaque, tartar (calculus), and surface stains that regular brushing cannot. Using ultrasonic instruments and specialized tools, we clean above and below the gumline, then polish your teeth to a smooth, shiny finish. We recommend this treatment every 6 months for optimal oral health.

What is Scaling and Polishing?
Even with perfect brushing habits, plaque hardens into tartar over time, especially in areas your toothbrush cannot reach. Tartar buildup leads to gum disease, bad breath, and tooth decay. Professional scaling removes this buildup safely, while polishing removes surface stains for a brighter smile. Our DHA Karachi clinics use gentle ultrasonic scaling technology that is comfortable even for patients with sensitive teeth.
Gentle Ultrasonic
Ultrasonic scaler removes tartar without scratching enamel. Comfortable even for sensitive teeth.
Preventive Focus
We don't just clean teeth - we check for cavities, gum disease, and oral cancer.
Quick & Painless
Most cleanings done in 30-45 minutes. Numbing gel available for sensitive patients.
