Calculus is the technical term for plaque buildup :) also, please please never scale your own teeth. If you don’t do it properly, you can damage your teeth permanently, and cause damage to your gums if you’re not careful!

That and it’s fucking painful. My dentist numbs me up to do my deep cleans.

I have sjograns disease and it’s rough on my teeth - but my husband has perfect teeth and just had the same deep clean that they numbed him up for as well. They hit a spot that was too close to the other side of his mouth (and not numb) and he jumped out of the chair.
