It depends on how much tartar was there in the first place, whether the dentist had to perform deep scaling and whether there was a lot of swelling in the gums before treatment.. You may feel that the teeth have become mildly loose, but remember that's just a "feeling".. This happens especially whether there has been huge amounts of tartar and consequent gum recession.. You may also experience increased sensitivity due to exposed root surfaces which were previously covered with tartar..

Next 2 to 3 days.. u need to avoid very hot or cold food stuff (temperature changes).. u can brush using desensitizing paste..and oral rinses with mouth wash..avoid spicy and citrus juices for 2 days..after scaling..
