I went to the dentist because I was bleeding suddenly. There was a lot of tartar buildup, so the dentist recommended scaling and I had it done. The areas with heavy tartar buildup felt a bit sensitive, but it wasn't as painful as I expected. After it was done, the uncomfortable feeling of food particles stuck between my teeth disappeared, and the surface felt smoother when I touched it with my tongue. Best of all, I've noticed that gum bleeding during brushing has decreased compared to before. From now on, I plan to get regular cleanings rather than waiting until it becomes uncomfortable.
