Scaling and polys

Scaling is the cleaning of the debris that is stuck to the teeth with the help of a device, i.e. dental plaque and other debris. If dirt accumulates in the teeth, problems such as bleeding from the teeth, swelling of the gums, and loose teeth will occur.

If the teeth are chipped, the teeth cannot be cleaned properly and other dental problems may appear. Therefore, braces are tied to the teeth to fix this.

There are three types of braces. Most metal braces are used. It is 'fixed' throughout the treatment period, it cannot be removed. Follow-up should be done every month.

For those who don't like metal braces, there is 'ceramic braces'. The way these braces work is the same. But what is special is that it is made of ceramic and is not visible. Follow up should be good as some can get gum infection.

Gum problems

Gingivitis

The main reason for gum problems is lack of attention to dental health. If you don't brush regularly and properly, plaque accumulates on the teeth and hardens around the gums. These harmful bacteria can infect the gums and cause a problem called gingivitis.

In this case, the gums can be heard and sometimes bleed. If there is only 'gingivitis', it will be fine by taking care of the teeth and 'scaling'.

Periodontitis

If gingivitis persists for a long time, the bacterial infection can create a periodontal pocket between the gum and the root of the tooth. If left untreated, the spread of gingivitis can lead to periodontitis. Finally, it damages the soft tissue of the gums and its inner bone. Which not only causes pain but also weakens and shakes the teeth.

Cost: Periodontitis may require periodontal surgery. The cost of surgery ranges from Rs 3,000 to Rs 6,000.

Dental fillings

If a tooth is infected with worms, that part becomes black. Not only will the stain stay, but it will also fade. Such a condition in the teeth is colloquially known as 'Kira Lagaga'. If it is in the initial state, the germs are removed and cement filling is done there.

Cost: The fee for filling a decayed tooth starts from 500. Fees increase depending on the condition and number of teeth.

Root Canal Treatment (RCT)

I got a worm in my teeth. But if it is not treated for a long time, the tooth may rot and become ineffective. Not only that, it damages the roots. To save the tooth, the treatment done from the root is 'root canal treatment' treatment. In this method, while treating from the root of the tooth, a small hole is made in the chewing part or the inside of the tooth and the nerve is treated.

Cost: The treatment cost of RCT starts from 3000 on average. The fee may increase according to the complexity of the tooth.

Interdontic surgery

If the treatment is not possible with RCT or if not done in time, the root infection will increase. Which is called periapical abscess. In this, the bacteria reaches the inside of the root of the tooth and can break the tooth, cause swelling of the gums, pain, space in the tooth, and sometimes even tumors. It requires interdontic surgery even after RCT.

Expenses: For front teeth, it starts from three thousand rupees. Similarly, there are many roots to do in the back teeth Fees start from four thousand. Depending on the hospital and clinic, the fee may be lower.
