What is Dental Polishing?
Dental polishing is a dental treatment carried out primarily to clean, smooth and improve the health of teeth and restorations. It is often done as part of a “scale and polish”. It can help to remove stains, remove plaque, smooth the tooth surface, whiten teeth and prevent gum disease.
There are two main dental polishing methods: via prophy cup, and air polishing.
