Scaling is done to remove superficial deposits from your teeth. It has no harm;rather you should go for regular scaling every 6months. It is important for your healthy gums. Cost varies from 600-1500/- depending upon the condition of teeth; amount of depositd and stains and health of gums.

Scaling and Polishing is not harmful at all. Ideally it should be done once in 6 or 8 month. It varies from person to person. Some people have more deposits then they need to get it done once in 6 months.
Cost varies from dentist to dentist . you should consult your near by dentist for that.
Next Steps
Patient should do brushing twice a day, a regular dental check up.

Like a good cleaning is important for your house once in few months, similarly scaling is important for teeth once every 6 months.
It has no side effects.
Charges depend on Doctor and on patient's condition.

Well there isn’t any harm after scaling and polishing, it just people tend to face a little sensitivity that too those patient who have higher grades of plaque and tartar deposited on their teeth.
Else it is always counted as the maintenance treatment required for teeth after every 6months.
Note: I don’t work in orthosquare anymore.
Good luck
