저도 저번달에 스케일링했어요 최소 1년에 한번은 해줘야 치아가 건강하더라구요 ㅎㅎ
Maintain your dental health with scaling covered by health insurance.
I make sure to get a scaling once a year.
I usually take oral care seriously, but saliva in the mouth is always present, and tartar tends to form.
They say that because I manage relatively diligently, I have fewer symptoms.
If you haven't had your dental cleaning before December 31st, please visit the dentist.
Did you know that since 2013, adults aged 19 and over are covered by health insurance for scaling costs once a year?
I can't miss out on such a good system.
What is scaling?
It is a dental technique that uses ultrasonic vibrations to remove tartar and plaque accumulated on teeth.
Prevent gum disease by removing tartar between teeth and around the gums that cannot be eliminated through brushing during scaling.
They say you can maintain your dental health.
How much is the scaling cost?
If health insurance is applied, the scaling cost is approximately 10,000 to 20,000 won. For non-insurance scaling not covered by health insurance, the cost varies by dental clinic, but it is roughly between 50,000 and 100,000 won.
Recommended interval for scaling
If you brush your teeth well and maintain thorough oral hygiene regularly, getting a scaling once a year is sufficient. The frequency of scaling varies for each individual depending on the condition of their teeth. For smokers, people with misaligned teeth where debris easily gets stuck, those who neglect oral care, or diabetic patients, a 6-month or 3-month interval may be recommended.
Precautions after scaling
After scaling, your gums and teeth may be sensitive, so caution is needed for about 2 to 3 days.
Use a toothbrush with soft bristles
Avoid hot and cold foods, and also avoid spicy and salty foods.
✅Recommend hearty foods such as porridge and soup
Avoid smoking and drinking to prevent gum inflammation.
If bleeding does not stop easily, visit the hospital immediately.
If you don't take care of it when you're healthy, the cost becomes a problem, but it's also very difficult for me.
Maintain healthy teeth through regular oral care and scaling.
