What is teeth scaling and bleaching?

Scale removal and polishing are methods of actions that are used to remove plaque, scale and surface stains. By using these methods, oral and dental hygiene is improved and the appearance of the teeth is improved. These two methods are performed as follows:

Plaque and scale removal: In the process of scaling or cleaning teeth, the focus is on removing plaque and accumulated scales from the teeth and gum line. This work plays an important role in preventing gum diseases such as gingivitis and periodontitis.

Smoothing the tooth surface: Polishing or smoothing the tooth surface is done using a rotating brush and special paste to smooth the surface of the teeth. This not only removes surface stains on the teeth; Rather, it removes the hard plaque on the teeth and thus makes the teeth cleaner and shinier.

What is teeth bleaching?

Bleaching or teeth whitening is a procedure that is performed using laser light. In this method, which is also known as teeth whitening with light, special light energy such as laser or LED light is used to increase the whiteness and brightness of the teeth. Teeth whitening can be done in the office or by using home whitening kits.

What is the difference between scaling and teeth bleaching?

It may be a question for many people, which method should they use to make their teeth look more beautiful? Bleaching or tooth scaling have clear differences, which are as follows:

The purpose of scaling and teeth bleaching

In tooth scaling, the goal is to remove plaque, scale (tartar), and surface stains that have accumulated on the teeth and under the gums. This method plays an important role in preventing gum periodontal disease and other dental problems.

In tooth bleaching, the goal is to whiten the natural color of the teeth and remove deep pigments inside the tooth enamel. In fact, this method is considered a beauty method.

Bleaching and teeth scaling treatment process

Teeth scaling is done using manual or ultrasonic tools and actually removes the scales that cannot be removed by brushing. This method is usually performed together with polishing to smooth the surface of the teeth. In the bleaching method, chemicals such as hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide are used to oxidize the pigments, and special laser light is used to activate the materials. This method can be done in the dental office or at home with a special kit.

Difference in treatment performance

Dental filling is considered a therapeutic process and it is used to prevent many problems such as gum infection, tooth decay, etc. Teeth bleaching is not a treatment process and it is called as a cosmetic process.

Effect on the whiteness of teeth

In the scaling method, the layer created on the tooth that has a yellow, dark or blue color is removed and the original color of the tooth is revealed. This natural tooth color is usually lighter and whiter than when the plaque was on the tooth. Scaling, although it cleans and shines more teeth; But it does not change the original color of the tooth. In the bleaching method, at the same time that the stains and yellowness of the teeth are removed, the natural color of the teeth also becomes brighter and whiter.

Cost

These two methods are also different in terms of cost. The cost of teeth bleaching is higher than scaling; But the criminalization process has a more suitable and cheaper price.

What is the similarity between scaling and teeth bleaching?

Apart from the differences, the similarities of these two methods should also be mentioned. From the similarity of tooth scaling and bleaching, the following points should be mentioned:

Quick implementation: Both bleaching and tooth scaling methods can be performed in one treatment session, and only if the tooth scale is very severe, a second session may be needed.

Safety: These two methods are completely safe for the teeth and do not cause any complications or risk to the teeth and gums. They don't.

Temporary treatment: Both methods have a temporary effect; This means that after some time, their effect disappears and they need to be done again.

Need for care after treatment: After performing these procedures, you should avoid eating foods with pigments or drinks such as soft drinks and tea. It is also not recommended to use cigarettes and drugs after doing them.

criminalization and bleaching

Which is better, teeth whitening or scaling?

It may be a question for many people which of these two methods is more effective and it is better to go for it. In answer to this question, it should be said that scaling and bleaching have different functions and people should go for these methods according to the needs of their teeth. If the person's teeth have calculus, the specialist suggests calculus removal; But if the teeth are free of plaque and calculus; But if their color is yellow, the bleaching method is suggested to whiten the teeth.

What are the benefits of scaling and bleaching?

The benefits of scaling and teeth bleaching are different in each, because their goals and effects are also different. In the following, we discuss the advantages of each of these methods:

Advantages of dental scaling

The following can be mentioned among the advantages of dental scaling:

Prevention of gum diseases: Hard scales under the gums can cause inflammation and infection. Scaling prevents the occurrence of diseases such as gum inflammation (gingivitis) and periodontitis.

Fixing bad breath: Plaques and scales are places where bacteria accumulate. With descaling, the unpleasant smell of the mouth is noticeably reduced.

Reduction of gum bleeding: Descaling, by reducing inflammation of the gums, stops bleeding when brushing or eating.

Improving the appearance of teeth: With descaling, surface stains and yellow deposits are removed, and the teeth look cleaner and brighter.

Advantages Teeth bleaching

Teeth bleaching has many advantages, among which the following should be mentioned:

Whitening and shining of teeth: Bleaching can lighten the color of the teeth by several degrees and give a person a more beautiful smile.

Increasing self-confidence: Whiter teeth have a great effect on the beauty of the smile, and this increases self-confidence in communication. It becomes social.

No damage to the tooth structure: If done correctly by the dentist, bleaching does not harm the tooth enamel.

Can be done at home or in the office: The bleaching method is flexible and people can do the bleaching at home or in the office according to their conditions.

Does scaling make teeth whiter and brighter or bleaching?

The answer to this question depends on the type of cause of yellow teeth. If the yellowness or darkness of the teeth is due to the accumulation of plaque and tartar, tooth scaling can also whiten the teeth by removing them. If the surface of the tooth and the distance between the tooth and the gum are free of plaque, in these cases, tooth bleaching can whiten the teeth, and plaque removal is not recommended.

When should you do scaling and teeth whitening?

It should be said that it is recommended to do this once every 6 months to a year. However, this time has a lot to do with a person's oral and dental health, and if plaque and tartar accumulate repeatedly on the tooth, scaling should be done at shorter intervals. In the following situations, people are advised to take scaling seriously:

Accumulation of plaque and scale: If the person's teeth are rough or have yellow and brown spots, they should definitely take steps for scaling.

Gum problems: Gum problems are associated with symptoms such as bleeding and swelling of the gums, inflammation or bad breath. In such a situation, scaling must be done.

Teeth bleaching is considered a beauty method and its performance goes back to things like the time of tooth color change. Bleaching can be considered in the following situations:

When the color of the teeth changes: If the teeth have changed color for various reasons such as drinking too much coffee or tea, smoking, or the passage of time, in these cases, bleaching is recommended.

Before special occasions: Bleaching is also recommended before events such as weddings and birthday parties so that a person has a more beautiful smile.

After tooth scaling: Bleaching can be effective after tooth scaling; زیرا دندان‌های بدون جرم را روشن‌تر و سفیدتر می‌کند.
