Do I really have to get a dental scaling once a year?

I often hear at the dentist that I should get a scaling.

I became interested because I heard that it is covered by health insurance.

However, I am wondering if I really need to get it done even if I don't have much tartar.

People around me said it's good to get it regularly.

Conversely, there were also opinions that there was no need to receive it frequently.

I am curious if the cycle varies from person to person.

I've heard that your teeth weaken after receiving it, but I'm not sure if that's true.

I want to know exactly and manage it.

    치주질환 예방 목적 때문에 치석이 “많아 보이지 않아도” 스케일링을 정기적으로 받는 경우가 많습니다. 눈에 안 보이는 잇몸 아래 치석은 양치로는 제거가 안 되기 때문이에요.
    
    스케일링 후 치아가 약해진다는 건 오해이고, 실제로는 치석이 떨어지면서 뿌리 부분이 노출돼 일시적으로 시리게 느껴질 수 있는 정도입니다.

    1년에 1번은 기본이구요.
    치석 잘 생기는 사람은 2번 받아도 됩니다.
