Teeth Cleaning & Scaling in Madurai
Professional teeth cleaning for healthy gums and a fresh smile.
Scaling removes hardened tartar (calculus) and plaque from above and below the gum line that brushing cannot reach, followed by polishing to remove surface stains. It is one of the simplest ways to prevent gum disease and bad breath.

Why professional teeth cleaning matters
Plaque that is not removed by brushing hardens into tartar within days. Tartar irritates the gums, causing bleeding, swelling and bad breath, and over time can lead to gum disease and loosening of teeth.
A professional cleaning removes this build-up and gives your dentist a chance to spot cavities or gum problems early, when they are simpler to treat.

Teeth Cleaning & Scaling: questions patients ask
How much does teeth cleaning cost in Madurai?
At Astra Dental Care, professional scaling is ₹1,200. Deep cleaning for heavier (grade 2/3) stains is ₹1,300 – ₹1,500. The exact cost is confirmed after a quick check.
Does scaling damage the enamel?
No. Scaling removes tartar and stains that sit on the tooth; it does not remove enamel. Teeth can feel slightly sensitive for a day or two, which settles on its own.
Why do my gums bleed during cleaning?
Bleeding usually means the gums are already inflamed because of tartar. Once the tartar is removed and you keep up good brushing, the bleeding normally reduces.
How often should I get my teeth cleaned?
Every six months is a common recommendation, but people with gum problems or heavy staining may need it more often. Your dentist will advise you.
