I cant tell you how much pain, cause pain differ from ppl to ppl.

how much it cost?

Yeah,me want to know oso!!

No pain at all. Price depends on location. In more expensive locations obviously expect to more la...circa > 100. Mine in PJ Old Town about RM55.

it will only be painful if u hav any gum diseases which are exposed or tooth decay problems....

will cost around 35++ in Klang and 70+ in PJ

cost will vary from RM50-rm100. depends on package cuz certain dentist hv package together with normal check up (of course) and polishing.

go to govt hosp will be sooooo much cheaper, like rm2. heh. but u have to wait like forever unless u go to small state hospital.

i did it from rm60 at seri kembangan..
there's slight pain..but its worth it and u can have a better smile:)

is tooth scaling, tartar removal = layman term -> wash tooth in cantonese/mandarin 洗牙？？

tartar removal...man i've done this 2 years ago and i still can't forget how painful it was...and my teeth bleed non-stop for 2 days...no kidding, i need to gargle with water every few minutes...after woke up from sleep a thick layer of frozen blood stuck in my teeth...

well ONLY if u have a weak gum and don't consume much calcium though...if ur gum didnt bleed when brushing, then u won't have such things as i faced though

rm60 to hundred...wil feel zing...n zing....cant do to often... 1 for 2 years mebe..

i just did mine polishing and scaling ... actually I also not sure what it does ..

who cares .. from dental card lol

scaling not painful but will feel weird because after that can feel the gaps between your teeth ; Less than RM100 at popular clinics

eat before u go see dentist!!!

is it call 洗牙？

I did mine for RM75.
Scaling + polishing... I think scaling includes tartar removal too rite?

That is just plain rude.

lol, u open the mouth the dentist can see vege, meat, and mentos inside ur mouth lol

yah i probably should have added another line, but i thought it was common sense geh

eat before u go see dentist!!!

brush your teeth before u go see dentist too!!!


i always clean my teeth properly pre-visit because i worry if i'm mean to my dentist, she'll cause me more pain

What makes you think that didn't brush your teeth is mean to your dentist oh? KAWAII DESU NE~~

thanks guys i really need to do this tartar removal and ppl should be aware of it too, cause it can eat up your tooth making u go teethless.

not that frequent, going to see dentist as advisable. twice a year only. sometimes only once a year.

any specific dentist to recommend? affordable price of cuz =)

it is recommended to go twice a year for scaling and polishing to avoid gum disease

You have sensitive gums. You should try sensodyne toothpaste and also soft bristle brushes.

I always have slight gum bleeding at the back of the jaw when i use medium to hard bristle brushes & colgate/darlie toothpaste.

It's because the space between your teeth are already clean hence the 'gap'.

I did mine in Setia Alam for RM70 (scaling & polishing).

Whenever I feel the uneasiness when my dentist scales, i'll tell her it's not very comfortable and of course she'll ease up on the cleaning. Same goes to polishing.

Anyway, when I started to use Sensodyne, the scaling & polishing procedure was no longer that uncomfortable. FYI, I have sensitive teeth - particularly the 4 front teeth (upper & lower jaw).

i didnt clean for 1.5 years..went scaling and polishing..damn farking pain..and keep bleeding after scaling..it cost RM110 at Kajang Dental Care Center.

Kajang Dental... hmmm.... is it the ground floor one near the market?? upstairs is an orthodontic clinic?

i do at goverment only rm3.but if u go private rm50++

Does scaling procedure involved polishing? Is it automatically included? Recently I went for scaling and I told the dentist of certain tooth with discolouration she proceeded with scaling and paid special attention to continuously scrub the stain away with prophy paste. After that the surface of that tooth appears sandy, if I uses fingernail to lightly scratch over other teeth it is smooth but the tooth that was scrubbed I can feel the smooth part now only exist at the sides where as the part that has been scrubbed has lost this layer and appears porous and rough. Has this enamel been damaged? I somewhat wonder if I should not have done the polishing but then again I wasn't even informed about what entails polishing (until I researched) and she didn't even said this was part of her scaling procedure.
