Myth: Scaling Loosens Teeth? The Truth About Dental Scaling | Dr. Ajith Baskar Myth: Scaling Loosens Teeth? The Truth About Dental Scaling | Dr. Ajith Baskar Myth: Dental scaling loosens teeth. ❌ Fact: Scaling does not loosen healthy teeth. It removes plaque and tartar that cause gum disease. If teeth feel loose after scaling, the supporting bone may already have been weakened by untreated gum disease, not by the procedure itself. Regular dental scaling helps prevent bleeding gums, bad breath, and tooth loss while keeping your gums healthy.

Healthy gums mean stronger teeth. 🦷✨ Jul 25, 2026 Learn more
