Sometimes, deposits just won’t budge. Like that friend who stays on your couch for “a few days.” That’s when you call in reinforcements. A doctor might suggest:
- Ultrasound therapy – gentle sound waves that break up deposits. No pain, just a weird buzzing.
- Shockwave therapy – sounds dramatic, but it can shatter stubborn calcium like a ninja with a hammer.
- Minor surgery – for the really party-crashing ones. Your doc snips them out. You get a cool scar story.
And for teeth deposits? Dental cleanings are non-negotiable. That scaler tool is a tiny jackhammer for tartar. Your dentist won’t judge you—they’ve seen worse. Probably.
