Preventing Recurrent Tartar (Calculus) Build-Up
Tired of tartar coming back after every cleaning?

What is preventing recurrent tartar (calculus) build-up?
Some people find that hard tartar (calculus) builds up again within weeks of a professional cleaning. Tartar forms when plaque that is not removed hardens with minerals from saliva, and it keeps coming back if the underlying cause is not addressed. At Urja Dental Clinic in Phase 3B2, Mohali, we don't just clean your teeth; we look for why tartar keeps returning. Common causes include brushing technique, missed areas between teeth, crowded teeth, old fillings or crowns with rough edges, dry mouth, smoking, diet and naturally mineral-rich saliva. After a thorough scaling and polishing, we show you the right brushing and flossing technique, recommend interdental brushes or water flossers where helpful, correct rough fillings, suggest a suitable anti-tartar toothpaste and set the right cleaning interval for you. This holistic approach keeps your teeth cleaner for longer and protects your gums.
