## What is scaling and polishing?

Professional cleaning that removes hardened plaque (tartar) and stains from the tooth surface. Plaque that is not removed by brushing and cleaning between the teeth builds up and irritates the gums.

## How often should I have my teeth cleaned?

Most people should see a dentist every 6 months. Regular check-ups catch problems while they are small and cheap to fix.

## When is deep cleaning needed?

If gum disease has started, deep cleaning (root planing) may be needed: NPR 1,000 per tooth, or NPR 5,000 for full gum disease treatment. See [bleeding gums](https://kashyapdental.com.np/guides/bleeding-gums).
