Scaling and polishing at Radiant 32 clears away what a toothbrush at home can't reach. Dr Madhulika Purkait checks the gums and teeth first, then uses Professional scaling to lift hardened plaque from the tooth surface and just below the gum line, without wearing down the enamel underneath.
Regular brushing helps maintain your teeth, but it cannot remove hardened tartar once it has formed. Professional scaling reaches these areas gently, while polishing smooths the cleaned surfaces for a cleaner, fresher finish.
Tell us when your gums last felt clean and the clinic calls back during working hours with a slot. Nothing is charged to book the consultation fee of 500 rupees is paid at the clinic.
Don't wait out these signs of plaque and tartar build-up. If any sound familiar, book a check - a routine clean is quicker and cheaper than treatment delayed.
Discolouration along the gum line is usually plaque and tartar that has hardened and stained over time.
Gums that bleed when brushing or flossing are a common sign tartar has built up right at the gum line.
Odour that persists after brushing is usually bacteria trapped in plaque a toothbrush can't reach.
Tartar hardens into a rough layer along the tooth surface that only professional scaling can remove.
Scaling removes hardened plaque and tartar from the tooth surface and from just below the gum line, where a toothbrush and floss can't reach. Left alone, this buildup is what causes gums to bleed and recede over time.
Once the teeth are fully scaled, polishing smooths the surface and lifts surface staining from tea, coffee or paan. A smoother surface also means new plaque has less to grip onto before the next visit.
Scaling and polishing at Radiant 32 is finished in a single sitting, usually inside forty minutes. There's no drilling and no anaesthetic involved.

Nothing about the appointment needs a second visit to complete there's no numb lip or cheek to wait out afterwards. Most patients walk out and go straight back to their day, eating and smiling normally within minutes of leaving the chair.
