Preventive Treatments

Oral Prophylaxis at Studio Dentale, Nepal

Trying to get rid of yellow deposits and stains by brushing but not able to? Those are likely calculus and tartar, and Oral Prophylaxis is the dental treatment that removes them — consisting of professional teeth cleaning and polishing.

Food deposited on teeth needs to be brushed away in time. If it isn't, it calcifies into calculus, which needs to be removed by professional dental cleaning to give you a sparkling, healthy smile.
