Ultrasonic Piezo Scaling.Enamel Airflow Polishing.

Cleaning and Polishing at 22Luna is a gentle, thorough periodontal prophylaxis procedure performed using gentle ultrasonic micro-vibrations and fine airflow polishing.

Unlike abrasive scraping, our high-frequency piezo scaler safely shatters calcified calculus (tartar) and bacterial plaque from above and below the gumline while a glycine air-polishing mist removes deep tea, coffee, and tobacco stains without scratching your tooth enamel.

The Process

How it works.

01

Intraoral Digital Examination

The dentist checks plaque index, gum pocket depth, and enamel integrity.

02

Ultrasonic Piezo Debridement

Micro-sound waves shatter calculus deposits while a water spray keeps teeth cool.

03

Airflow Glycine Polishing

A pressurized air, water, and ultra-fine glycine powder mist blasts away stains.

04

Fluoride Remineralization Shield

A protective enamel-strengthening fluoride varnish is applied.

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

The most common questions about this treatment, answered plainly.

Does scaling weaken or thin my teeth?

No! This is a common myth. Ultrasonic scaling only removes foreign calculus and bacteria; it cannot damage or thin healthy tooth enamel.

Will my teeth be sensitive after cleaning?
