Full mouth scaling (FMS) is a professional cleaning treatment used to treat gum disease and remove all deep levels of plaque and tartar present in the oral cavity, including below and above the gum line. If you’re looking for affordable tooth cleaning in Nairobi or Mombasa, Molars Dental offers expert full-mouth scaling using the latest technology.

It’s important to note that even white teeth can harbor hidden tartar. That’s why FMS should only be performed by a qualified dental professional for safe and effective results. Our teeth cleaning services in Kenya help uncover hidden dental issues before they become serious. 

Scaling

Scaling is a dental procedure where a dentist removes plaque and tartar from tooth surfaces, leaving them clean and smooth to prevent gum disease. This teeth cleaning procedure is widely used in Nairobi and is available at all Molars Dental branches.

Root Planing

In addition to scaling, root planing is performed to remove plaque and tartar from below the gum line and to smooth the root of the tooth. This process helps prevent the progression of gum disease, reduces inflammation, and promotes healing of the gum tissue. Looking for deep teeth cleaning in Kenya? Visit Molars Dental for professional full mouth scaling and root planing today.

Together, scaling and root planing form the foundation of Full Mouth Scaling (FMS), a comprehensive treatment aimed at controlling gum disease and restoring optimal oral health. This is one of the most effective dental cleaning services in Kenya for patients dealing with early signs of gum disease.

Importance of FMS

Improves oral hygiene: By removing plaque and tartar from the tooth surfaces, FMS makes it easier for patients to maintain good oral hygiene at home with regular brushing and flossing. Our teeth cleaning packages in Nairobi and Mombasa are designed for patients who want to maintain optimal oral hygiene year-round.

Tooth Loss Prevention: Untreated gum disease can gradually destroy the bone supporting your teeth, leading to loosened or lost teeth over time. FMS helps prevent this by removing harmful plaque and tartar buildup. Many of our patients in Nairobi come to Molars Dental to stop tooth loss early through deep cleaning.

Prevents and Treats Gum Disease: Full mouth scaling removes the bacteria and debris that cause gum inflammation.

Reduces Risk of Tooth Decay: Scaling removes decay-causing bacteria, helping to prevent cavities and protect the tooth.

Reduces Inflammation and Bleeding: It also removes the source of infection, helping to reduce gum inflammation, bleeding, and sensitivity. Visit Molars Dental for pain-free, thorough teeth cleaning in Nairobi or Mombasa today.

FMS is recommended at least twice a year for individuals at risk of gum disease or with a history of tartar buildup. However, frequency may vary depending on individual oral health needs for intake.

For patients with advanced gum disease, full-mouth scaling may be needed more frequently. However, those with healthy gums typically only require routine scaling once or twice a year, not full mouth scaling.

FMS Procedure

At Molars Dental Practice, the FMS procedure begins with a thorough dental examination to assess the condition of your gums and the extent of plaque and tartar buildup. Numbing or local anesthesia may be applied, if needed.

Scaling using specialized tools to remove plaque and tartar from all tooth surfaces, including areas beneath the gum line, is done, followed by root planing, where the root surfaces of the teeth are smoothed to help the gums reattach and promote healing.

After scaling and root planing, your mouth is rinsed with an antibacterial solution to flush out remaining debris. Finally, we provide aftercare tips to support healing and maintain healthy hygiene. This usually takes 1 to 2 hours, depending on the severity of your condition.

The FMS procedure is carried out with meticulous care to support long-term oral health. Ready to protect your smile? Book your appointment today and take the next step toward a healthier, more confident you.
