Can I have scaling and other regular treatments during orthodontic treatment?

Yes, it's possible. In fact, during orthodontic treatment the appliances raise the risk of cavities and gum disease, so scaling and cavity treatment become even more important. Scaling is covered by national health insurance once a year for those aged 19 and over, and it can be done with your braces on. For cavity treatment, the wire can be temporarily removed if needed. However, if the treatment area overlaps with a bracket, your orthodontic schedule may need adjusting, so it's best to proceed after discussing with your orthodontic care team.
