Brushing and flossing clean visible areas of teeth, but they cannot remove hardened deposits beneath the gumline. When soft plaque is left behind, it hardens into calculus (tartar), which cannot be removed at home. Professional cleaning prevents gum disease, bad breath, stains, and long-term damage to the teeth and supporting bone.
Calculus is hard yellowish deposit that forms over and between teeth when plaque is not removed on time. Plaque is a soft film of bacteria, food debris, and saliva. Within 24–72 hours, minerals in saliva harden this film into tartar, which firmly adheres to tooth surfaces and the gumline.
Once formed, it cannot be removed by brushing. Attempts to scrape it off at home can injure the gums and worsen infection. Professional cleaning is the only safe way to eliminate these deposits and restore gum health.
How calculus forms:
Neglecting tartar can result in:
Gingivitis (early gum problems)
Gums become red, swollen, and may bleed while brushing.
Periodontitis (advanced gum disease)
Gums may recede and teeth may feel loose if ignored.
Persistent bad breath
Tartar allows bacteria to thrive, causing chronic mouth odour.
Tooth loss risk
Advanced gum disease leads to loosening and eventual loss of teeth.
Scaling (Professional Cleaning)
Removes tartar and plaque from above and below the gumline. Ideal for routine preventive care.

I visited Clove dental, Anna Nagar- new branch. I had a couple of fillings, teeth cleaning and a root canal for my mom. Dr. Vaiyshnavi is a kind and knowledgeable doctor. She explained things in detail, made us feel comfortable and always had a smile on her face to provide comfort and reassurance during the treatment. I strongly recommend this clinic and Dr. Vaiyshnavi to my family and friends. Top class service!
