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 recently visited to this clinic, Dr. Nivedha and Hema was friendly & gentle and explained everything clearly. I felt comfortable throughout the treatment.
I underwent my wisdom teeth extraction procedure here. Despite being in a very difficult position, the surgeon extracted it with ease and in the most painless way possible. The doctors had explained the entire procedure in a very detailed manner and assured all the support possible Special mention to Dr.Pavithra ma'am who was very patient and extremely friendly! She takes special care for every patient which is highly appreciative : )
I have enjoyed my dental visits as the doctors are very friendly and make you comfortable
Had a Root canal treatment done recently at Clove Adyar. Was quite impressed by the personalised attention from the doctors... Pavitraa, Niranjini and Arul. Each stage of the procedure was explained in detail with xrays and photographs. None of them was in any hurry to get their job done and move on....as is done mostly. Patient's comfort is paramount. The clinic in itself, is spic and span. Covid protocols are adhered strictly. All in all, a good experience.
Dr.Niranjani handled my root canal procedure. She was incredibly professional and patiently explained the procedure to me. I appreciate all the people at Clove Adyar for helping me through the whole treatment.
It has been a very comfortable experience with clove. The staff and doctors are friendly and very efficient. I will be back if i have any other dental emergency :)
