Questions
Does it hurt?
Most people only feel the ultrasound vibration. If your gums are very inflamed it may be a little uncomfortable: let the doctor know.
Does a cleaning whiten my teeth?
It removes surface stains, but it doesn't change the natural color of the tooth. That's what whitening is for.
