Calcium deposit pile up

Due to the calcium presence in saliva as well as the presence of other beneficial substances such as enzymes , your teeth are well protected from harmful bacteria. However, this leads to the formation of calcium deposits on your teeth as your teeth are in continual contact with the calcium present in the saliva.

Chalky substance built up

At the base of your teeth, there will be formation of a chalky substance resembling the limescale deposits and is called tartar or calculus. This tartar cannot be identified easily as its colour can resemble the colour of your tooth. However, this substance that we call tartar can be black or brown as well. 

Accumulation of tartar

If you permit the accumulation of tartar on the teeth, this becomes the perfect condition for the bacteria to develop besides the gums.

Cleaning and Polishing- the purpose

With cleaning and polishing of the teeth at Prakash Dental Care, the tooth surface becomes clean as well as smooth. By this, there is less chance of the new bacteria getting stuck on the tooth surface and as a result there is a higher chance of keeping the teeth bacteria-free!
