TEETH WHIETENING PROCEDURE

At RK Dental Hospital, dental bleaching, scaling, and polishing are integral components of their comprehensive dental care offerings. Each of these procedures plays a crucial role in maintaining and enhancing oral health and aesthetics. Here’s an overview of what each entails and how they are performed at RK Dental Hospital:

1. Dental Bleaching

Dental bleaching, also known as teeth whitening, is a popular cosmetic treatment designed to lighten the color of teeth and remove stains or discolorations. At RK Dental Hospital, this procedure is carried out with precision and the latest technology:

-Assessment and Preparation:

  - A thorough dental examination is conducted to ensure that teeth and gums are healthy before the bleaching procedure. This may include checking for any cavities, gum issues, or other oral health concerns.

  - A professional cleaning might be performed to remove surface plaque and tartar, ensuring the whitening agents work effectively.

- Bleaching Procedure:

  - In-Office Whitening: The hospital utilizes advanced whitening systems like Zoom! or other high-efficiency technologies that involve applying a potent whitening gel to the teeth. This gel is activated by a special LED light, which accelerates the bleaching process.

  - Take-Home Kits: For those who prefer to whiten their teeth at home, RK Dental Hospital provides customized take-home whitening kits. These include a professional-grade whitening gel and custom-fitted trays to ensure even application and effective results.

- Post-Treatment Care:

  - Patients receive detailed instructions on how to maintain their newly whitened smile, including dietary recommendations and oral hygiene practices to avoid staining.

2. Scaling

Scaling is a crucial part of dental hygiene aimed at removing plaque and tartar buildup from the teeth. It helps prevent gum disease, tooth decay, and bad breath. At RK Dental Hospital, scaling is performed with meticulous attention to detail:

- Initial Examination:

  - The dentist assesses the extent of plaque and tartar accumulation and determines the most appropriate scaling technique.

- Scaling Procedure:

  - Manual Scaling: Using specialized hand instruments, the dentist carefully removes plaque and tartar from the tooth surfaces and below the gum line.

  - Ultrasonic Scaling: This method employs ultrasonic devices that use high-frequency vibrations to dislodge and remove tartar more efficiently. The device also has a cooling mechanism to ensure comfort during the procedure.

- Post-Scaling Care:

  - Following scaling, the teeth are polished to smooth the surfaces and remove any remaining debris. Patients receive guidance on maintaining oral hygiene to prevent future buildup.

3. Polishing

Polishing is performed after scaling to enhance the appearance of the teeth and remove any residual stains. At RK Dental Hospital, this step is executed with precision to ensure a smooth, shiny finish:

- Polishing Procedure:

  - Professional Polish: A special polishing paste is applied to the teeth using a rubber cup attached to a slow-speed handpiece. This paste contains fine abrasives that remove surface stains and smooth out the enamel.

  - Fluoride Application: Often, a fluoride treatment is applied after polishing to strengthen the enamel and provide added protection against cavities and sensitivity.

- Post-Polishing Care:

  - Patients are advised on best practices for oral hygiene and dietary choices to maintain the polish and overall health of their teeth.
