What Is Plaque?
Plaque is a soft, sticky layer of bacteria that forms on your teeth daily.
If not cleaned properly, it quickly leads to tartar buildup — a major cause of gum disease, especially among patients we see in Greater Noida.
Only a dentist can remove tartar safely through professional scaling.
How Plaque Turns Into Tartar — Step-by-Step
1. Plaque forms after meals
Especially after sweets and sticky foods — common among students staying in Greater Noida hostels.
2. Plaque sits along the gum line
These areas are tricky to reach without proper brushing.
3. Saliva hardens it into tartar
Within 24–72 hours, soft plaque becomes rock-hard tartar.
4. Tartar irritates and infects gums
This leads to gingivitis — something we frequently treat at Dentesthetics
Why Tartar Is Dangerous
Gingivitis (Early Gum Disease)
Seen often in patients visiting from Knowledge Park, Pari Chowk & Alpha/Beta sectors.
Symptoms: bleeding gums, swelling, pain.
Periodontitis (Severe Gum Disease)
If ignored, tartar leads to bone loss and tooth mobility.
Bad Breath
Tartar traps bacteria → constant bad smell.
