The main reasons for diseases of the teeth and the periodontium are plaque and tartar. They form on each and every tooth.
If the plaque is allowed to remain on the surface of tteeth for a period of time, billions of bacteria and germs cause the formation of acid. This partly decalcifies the teeth and also inflames the gums.
After the dentist's diagnosis, members of the dental team specifically trained and qualified for this job remove the  plaque and tartar with professional equipment. Afterwards, all teeth are thoroughly polished, as it is difficult for new plaque to attach itself to smooth surfaces.
With intensive, daily oral hygiene you can remove the newly formed plaque which is still soft. In spite of this, the effectiveness of your oral hygiene at home is often limited, which is why additional professional tooth cleaning (scale and polish)is required.

Studies have shown that in tandem with systematic oral hygiene at home, professional tooth cleaning is sufficient to keep your teeth healthy. The number of dental visits required depends on the intensity of your daily oral hygiene and your individual dental situation.

Professional cleaning can only be carried out with special instruments, mechanical support and special polishing pastes in the dental practice. Thus, less accessible areas of the teeth can also be freed of plaque and then polished, in order to make it difficult for new plaque to develop.
Through regular evaluation of the plaque and bleeding index the regularity of visits required for professional tooth cleaning can be easily determined.
