(Question) Is it normal to have tooth sensitivity for a week after scaling?

I have experienced tooth sensitivity every year after scaling, but it usually subsided naturally after about 2-3 days. However, this time, I was diagnosed with periodontitis due to a significant buildup of tartar on my lower teeth. I received scaling treatment immediately, but the sensitivity has persisted for about a week. Since the sensitivity is lasting longer than usual, I am wondering if this is normal, if it is lasting longer because of the periodontitis, and if I need to visit the dentist again. Please share your experiences if you have any.
