With calculus and tartar should be removed through general treatment, surgical treatment and other ways.
1. General treatment: patients need to pay attention to personal hygiene, keep the oral cavity clean, you can use dental floss regularly to reduce the formation of plaque, so as to prevent the aggression of dental calculus on the gums.
2. Surgical treatment: including supragingival scaling and subgingival scraping, for supragingival plaque and calculus, it can be removed with hand scaler, ultrasonic scaler and other ways. For subgingival tartar, the specific operation is more or less the same as supragingival scaling, but it is necessary to keep checking the periodontal pockets and root surfaces of the teeth with a probe during the operation to observe whether the calculus is removed cleanly.
Patients with calculus and tartar should avoid treating them on their own, and should go to a regular hospital to cooperate with the doctor to avoid damaging the gums. In the later stage, we should develop good hygiene habits, and brush our teeth diligently and rinse our mouths more often.
