1. Removal of Calculus (Tartar): Removal of hardened plaque that has firmly attached to the tooth surface above and below the gum line using special dental instruments.
2. Removal of Plaque: Eliminating the sticky film of bacteria, food debris, and saliva that can lead to gum inflammation and periodontal disease.
3. Teeth Polishing: Removing stains and plaque that may not be eliminated during regular tooth brushing and scaling.

This information serves as a reminder for individuals to schedule regular dental check-ups and cleanings to ensure the ongoing health of their teeth and gums. Preventive care is crucial in maintaining a healthy and beautiful smile.
