About Oral Prophylaxis 

Oral Prophylaxis, in simple terms, means “cleaning of tooth surface”.

In this procedure, Plaque & Calculus (Tartar) is removed from the tooth and root surface. Oral prophylaxis acts as a preventive measure to prevent various gum and periodontal diseases. Oral Prophylaxis can’t be performed at home by yourself and it is recommended to visit your dentist for removal of Calculus.
