Tartar is hardened plaque that is a \u201chard deposit\u201d firmly attached to the tooth. Research shows that plaque begins to deposit as early as 4 to 12 hours after brushing, and if not removed, it mineralizes into tartar. Such tartar contains large amounts of bacteria that secrete acids and damage the structure of tooth enamel.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Once tartar has formed, it cannot be brushed off at home \u2013 it must be removed with dental instruments.

First, a dentist or dental hygienist examines and assesses the condition of the tartar and gums. This is followed by ultrasonic and mechanical treatment of the tartar, and finally, we finish the treatment with polishing and sandblasting.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:heading {\"level\":3} --><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Ultrasonic plaque removal<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><!-- \/wp:heading --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>In our office, we use a modern ultrasonic scaler that uses vibrations to break up and remove hard stones. This part of the treatment is usually <strong>painless<\/strong> and in most cases does not require local anesthesia. Patients only feel a slight vibration of the instrument in the mouth. The dentist carefully cleans tartar from all surfaces of the teeth, especially along the gum line and in the interdental spaces. After removing the plaque, the teeth are rinsed with water and we are ready for the final step.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:heading {\"level\":3} --><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Sandblasting and polishing of teeth<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><!-- \/wp:heading --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>After the tartar removal, sandblasting (Air Flow) and polishing of the teeth follow. The jet of fine abrasive grains and water quickly removes the remaining softer deposits and pigmentation from coffee, tea or cigarettes. This gives the teeth a <strong>natural shine and whiteness<\/strong>At the end of the treatment, we apply a special polishing paste to smooth the tooth surfaces. Smooth enamel is less prone to tartar buildup.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>The entire procedure takes about 30\u201345 minutes, depending on the amount of tartar and your needs. Since we use modern devices and careful techniques, the entire procedure is comfortable and quick. After the cleaning is complete, your teeth will feel smooth and fresh \u2013 as if you had a complete cleaning \u201cfrom the inside out\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:heading --><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Deep cleaning of dental tartar\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><!-- \/wp:heading --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Sometimes it is necessary to remove tartar not only on visible surfaces, but also below the gum line, in the so-called periodontal pockets. Such a procedure is called <strong>deep cleaning<\/strong> or <em>curettage<\/em>. We use it in patients with gum inflammation (gingivitis) or periodontitis. During curettage, the root of the tooth is thoroughly cleaned below the gum line to remove bacterial deposits that cause inflammation.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:image {\"id\":6849,\"width\":\"800px\",\"height\":\"auto\",\"sizeSlug\":\"large\",\"linkDestination\":\"none\"} --><\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 800px; height: auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/mondent.ba\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/profesionalno-ciscenje-zuba-1024x538.jpg\" alt=\"tartar cleaning\" \/><\/figure>\n<p><!-- \/wp:image --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>This method is crucial for the health of your teeth and gums: by removing tartar from under the gums, the depth of periodontal pockets is reduced, which helps the gums to adhere firmly to the teeth again.

In this way <strong>deep cleaning<\/strong> it actually treats and prevents more serious gum problems.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>After treatment, we also prescribe special gum care to ensure your teeth remain stable and healthy.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:heading --><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Tartar cleaning price<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><!-- \/wp:heading --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Many patients are interested in how much it costs. <strong>tartar cleaning<\/strong>At MonDent we strive to be transparent \u2013 \u200b\u200byou can always see the prices of our services on our website.
