Precision Plaque Removal | Calgary

A Convenient Way to Maintain Your Oral Health

Routine dental cleanings are a key part of oral health, but that doesn’t mean they need to be uncomfortable. At Rundle Dental, we use a modern technique called precision plaque removal to deliver a more targeted and comfortable cleaning experience.

This approach helps us identify and remove plaque and bacteria more accurately, while minimizing discomfort for patients with sensitivity, braces, or dental restorations.

What Makes Our Approach Different?

Our precision plaque removal cleaning method is designed to locate and remove plaque more effectively than traditional hand scaling.

Using a safe disclosing agent, we highlight where plaque is building up, especially in hard-to-see areas. Once visible, we gently clean the area using a combination of air polishing and ultrasonic tools that are designed to be both thorough and more comfortable than scraping with metal instruments.

What Happens During the Cleaning?

Here’s what you can expect during your visit:

Plaque visualized: We apply a safe dye that reveals where plaque is sitting on your teeth and gums.
Air polishing: A soft stream of warm water and fine powder gently lifts away buildup and surface stains.
Ultrasonic scaling: Any remaining plaque below the gumline is removed using a comfortable, high-frequency scaler that uses water and vibration—no scraping required.

This step-by-step process helps provide a more complete clean while keeping your comfort in mind.
