Plaque and Tartar Removal at Toome Dental

Plaque is a soft, sticky film of bacteria that constantly forms on your teeth. If not removed through daily brushing and flossing, it can harden into tartar—also known as calculus—which can’t be removed at home and can lead to gum disease and decay.

Our dental team uses professional tools and techniques to gently but effectively remove plaque and tartar build-up above and below the gum line. This helps protect your teeth and gums, freshens your breath and supports your long-term oral health.

Regular plaque and tartar removal is a key part of our preventative care approach at Toome Dental & Aesthetics, and we’ll also provide tailored advice to help you maintain results at home between visits.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between plaque and tartar?
Plaque is soft and removed with daily brushing. Tartar is hardened plaque that needs to be removed professionally.
Does plaque removal hurt?
Not usually. Most patients find it completely comfortable, though some sensitivity may occur if gums are inflamed.
How often should I get it done?
We usually recommend a professional clean every 6 months, but this can vary based on your oral health needs.
Can removing tartar reverse gum disease?
It can stop gum disease from progressing in early stages and help restore gum health with good home care.
Is it part of a routine check-up?
Plaque and tartar removal is typically carried out during hygiene appointments, which may be booked alongside check-ups or separately.
