Are these black stains in the front tooth caused because of scaling and polishing ?
Patient: Recently I did my dental check-up wherein the doctor did scaling and polishing. After two weeks I noticed some black stains in the front teethes? Could scaling and polishing cause this? If yes what is the remedy. Doctor: Hello and welcome to HCM, As scalig and polishing are the treatment to relieve the stain and tartar problem, so, these stains are not because of it, but may be a second appointment was't scheduled by any of you or you have not followed the post scaling instructions, like not having tea or smoke for some time,.. So check completely and visit the dentist. Thank you
