Teeth may sometimes feel slightly loose after a professional dental cleaning, especially if it has been a long time since the last session. This sensation can be unexpected and often misunderstood, but it does not mean the teeth were harmed during the procedure.

The scaling process removes hardened tartar (calculus) that builds up around the teeth and beneath the gums. When left for a long time, tartar can act like a false support—similar to cement—holding the teeth in place. However, this support is deceptive. Beneath the tartar, bacteria continue to damage the gums and bone, leading to slow, silent destruction of the structures that actually hold the teeth firmly.

After cleaning, the removal of tartar may reveal this existing damage, which can create the impression that teeth have become loose. But the cleaning did not cause this mobility—it simply exposed what was already present. In many cases, this is the first step toward healing. Once the source of infection is removed, the gums are able to recover, inflammation reduces, and natural support can begin to rebuild.

Scaling does not weaken teeth or damage enamel. It is a preventive, therapeutic procedure that helps maintain long-term oral health. Any mild mobility noticed after cleaning is usually temporary, and with proper care, gum tissues often tighten and stabilize over time.

Delaying or avoiding professional cleaning based on myths can result in worsening gum disease and eventual tooth loss. Regular scaling is an essential part of protecting and preserving oral health.

Neglecting oral care during braces treatment can cause irreversible enamel damage, tooth decay, and periodontal disease. 🦷🪥

Wearing braces is a crucial step toward achieving a straight and beautiful smile, but it also requires a higher level of oral care. The brackets and wires create spaces where food particles and plaque can easily accumulate, making it more difficult to clean your teeth properly. If oral hygiene is neglected during orthodontic treatment, it can result in serious problems such as enamel decalcification, tooth decay, and gum inflammation.

Enamel damage appears as white spots around the brackets—early signs of mineral loss that can become permanent. Plaque build-up around the braces can lead to cavities, especially in hard-to-reach areas, and increase the risk of gum disease due to chronic inflammation. Over time, this can compromise not only your dental health but also the final results of your orthodontic treatment.

To prevent these complications, it's essential to brush thoroughly after every meal using an orthodontic toothbrush or electric brush, floss daily with special orthodontic aids, and maintain regular professional cleanings. Good oral hygiene is the foundation for a healthy smile—before, during, and after braces.
