The unique properties of precious stones were known to our ancestors. They help improve health and attract good luck and happiness. A house under the auspices of a talisman stone becomes a full cup: a place where peace and tranquility always reign. But for it to work, it is necessary to cleanse it of bad energy.
Cleaning with a candle flame
Take a lit candle in your right hand and draw a circle clockwise over the mineral. You need to imagine at this moment how everything dirty leaves him. It is better to draw an odd number of circles. Do not extinguish the candle after cleaning - it must burn out completely.
A thin church candle is good for cleaning. You can read a prayer or any words that make sense to you.
Stones received as a gift or inherited are cleaned in this way.
With the help of moonlight
Most crystals harmonize well with the Moon. It is best to cleanse 3 days before the new moon or a few days after it. During this period, the energy of the lunar body is off the charts: it is ready to share its influence with the stones. Moreover, no precipitation will become an obstacle to energy exchange: be it wind or rain. But if the procedure of a magical ritual takes place in the fresh air, moisture should not get on the stone.
If the stone is heavily soiled, before exposing it to moonlight, take a container of clean water and salt and place it there. Leave it in this state for at least 3 days. The moon will take away all the accumulated negativity from him.
Minerals such as belomorite and adularia need to be cleansed only with moonlight. Other methods do not work on them.

We offer all patients of the MEDSI clinic a dental tartar cleaning
.
The procedure is carried out by dentists at least once every six months
and helps
prevent the development of caries and dangerous gum pathologies
, ensure fresh breath, relieve the patient of complexes and achieve overall oral health.
Teeth cleaning from tartar is carried out in MEDSI clinics using modern safe and highly effective methods to avoid tissue injury. During a fairly simple procedure, which usually lasts no more than 40-60 minutes, patients, even with a low pain threshold and high sensitivity, do not experience significant pain or discomfort. Thanks to this, cleaning can be carried out in almost all cases.
Causes of tartar formation
In the oral cavity of each of us, 200 billion different bacteria and other microorganisms are concentrated. At the same time, not all people devote enough time and effort to hygiene. Often it is not carried out very well and not as often as required. Few people use a toothbrush or even just rinse their mouth after breakfast, lunch and dinner to remove food debris. As a result, bacteria actively multiply and settle on soft and hard tissues, in gum pockets and in the spaces between elements of the dentition.
At first, the deposits remain soft, they can still be removed at home by regularly practicing hygiene. If soft deposits are not removed in a timely manner, they will harden and turn into dense stone. It is almost impossible to get rid of it
.
It is the stone (hard plaque) that causes:
- Bad breath
- Pigmentation of the enamel (its partial or complete darkening), worsening the appearance of the oral cavity and provoking a number of complexes in a person
- Development of caries
- The occurrence of pathological processes even in the gastrointestinal tract
Important! Tartar can appear even in those people who do not neglect hygiene, regularly brush their teeth and use special floss (dental floss) or irrigators. This is due to the fact that it is almost impossible to clean narrow spaces and gum pockets efficiently.
There are certain categories of foods and drinks that provoke a fairly rapid and intense formation of dense plaque, and then stone. These include coffee and wine, as well as sweets, pastries, and other delicacies. No one is protected from the occurrence of unpleasant plaque and tartar.
For this reason, we recommend regular teeth cleaning at MEDSI.

Methods for removing tartar
There are several popular methods that allow you to quickly and efficiently combat deposits.
You can remove tartar:
- By mechanical cleaning.
This technique is outdated and extremely rarely used these days; it has a number of disadvantages, the main of which is
gum trauma
. The procedure involves scraping off deposits using curettes (instruments with sharp edges), which can provoke not just discomfort, but pain and inflammatory processes. It is strictly forbidden to carry out such manipulations in case of inflammatory processes and pathological conditions of soft tissues - Sandblasting (AirFlow ).
This technique is more modern.
To remove tartar from teeth, use baking soda or sodium bicarbonate. The finished mixture is supplied under fairly high pressure, which allows you to literally knock down tartar. The liquid washes it away and at the same time allows you to cool your teeth. This technique is effective in the fight not only against stone, but also against soft plaque and pigmentation. Unfortunately, it cannot cope with large deposits. In addition, sandblasting is not carried out if there is inflammation of the gums
, as it can provoke a worsening of the condition. - Ultrasound.
This method is not only
more effective, but also less traumatic
than the previous two.
This cleaning is carried out using a special scaler (tip), which oscillates at a speed of approximately 100,000,000 movements in 60 seconds and destroys the bonds between the teeth and the formations on them. Additionally, ordinary purified water or an antiseptic is used. They provide cooling to the teeth and the tip itself. In addition, water allows you to remove all particles of stone from the interdental spaces and in the periodontal pockets. Immediately after brushing your teeth, their surface loses its smoothness, so additional treatment is carried out. It consists of polishing with pastes and brushes that eliminate roughness. This additional treatment helps prevent re-formation of plaque. Ultrasonic cleaning of teeth from stone provides many opportunities to remove all soft and hard deposits. Its advantages include the ability to improve the overall health of the oral cavity. - Laser.
This method is the most gentle.
The laser acts in a targeted manner
, affecting only unwanted formations, without damaging the surface of the teeth and gums, since the special attachment simply does not come into contact with them. All deposits are crushed into very small particles and washed away with water and air. The advantages of the method also include the fact that after brushing, teeth better absorb all the nutrients contained in food and toothpastes.
Stone removal technique
The stone removal technique involves several stages:
- Injection of a local anesthetic (not in all cases, usually with increased sensitivity or large amounts of deposits). Most often, no anesthesia is required
- Removing deposits
- Cleaning with abrasive strips. They allow you to efficiently clean the spaces between your teeth. The need to use strips is due to the fact that even a thin tip cannot penetrate into tiny gaps
- Removing all remaining deposits
- Teeth polishing
- Application of protective and strengthening varnish to the enamel
- Treatment of gums with an anti-inflammatory agent (if necessary)
- Teaching the patient proper hygiene
To maintain a long-term effect after the procedure, you must:
- Refrain from consuming drinks and foods high in synthetic or natural colors (soda, red wine, tea, coffee, carrots, beets, etc.) for the next few days
- Use a toothbrush of medium hardness, which ensures high-quality hygiene but does not allow tissue injury
- Replace your toothbrush regularly (once every 3 months), regardless of the degree of contamination and condition.
- Use the paste recommended by your doctor
- Brush your teeth, use dental floss or an irrigator at least 2 times a day
- Visit your dentist at least 2 times a year for re-cleaning
Only regular and good hygiene and adherence to the simplest recommendations will allow you to maintain the ideal condition of the oral cavity.
and save on the treatment of complex pathologies.
Important! The procedure should not be delayed.
Remember that harmful bacteria actively multiply in the oral cavity, and if a stone has already appeared, you will not be able to eliminate it yourself. Even the most expensive toothpastes won't cope with hard plaque, and the best brushes won't help remove it from gum pockets and spaces between teeth.

Cleaning with spring water
Water from a spring is considered alive, because it is constantly in motion. If possible, it is best to lower the stone into a stream or river for several hours. While water is flowing onto the stone, it must be held in your hands at all times. If you don’t have time for this, fill a bottle with life-giving moisture in advance and perform a home cleansing ritual.
After the procedure, minerals cannot be wiped off. They should dry on their own.
Not all stones can be cleaned with water, as they may lose their magical properties when exposed to moisture. For example, these include malachite and lapis lazuli. Water will destroy their strength and make them dull.
Corals
They are sensitive to high temperatures, so it is important to remember to remove coral jewelry when visiting the sauna.
How and how to clean stones at home so that they do not lose their properties
It is quite possible to clean jewelry with precious stones at home and, moreover, this should be done regularly for preventive purposes so that they do not lose their properties. If jewelry with precious or semi-precious stones is in disrepair, then it is best to contact a jewelry workshop, where they will be cleaned using modern methods. For example, an ultrasonic bath and so on.
With salt
The salt cleaning method is quite simple. Sea salt is poured into a small container and the stone is buried in it for several days. It is then washed under running water and left to dry. After manipulation, the salt is thrown away. Opal, malachite and aquamarine are afraid of salt baths.
For wet cleaning, you need to dissolve a teaspoon of salt in a glass of warm water. After the mixture has cooled, a stone is immersed in it. Washing is carried out in glass or ceramic containers. Be careful as a chemical reaction may occur that can seriously damage the stone. He can even change color.
Why cleanse stones of bad energy?
The stone absorbs surrounding energy. Once in someone's hands, it already carries certain information - positive or negative. Therefore, the process of physical and energetic cleansing is extremely important.
Stones need to be cleaned in the following cases:
- immediately after purchase;
- after receiving it as a gift, even if the gift was made by a loved one, negative energy could penetrate earlier;
- if you find a stone, there is no information about what happened to it before;
- when used for treatment, they need to be cleaned with redoubled force;
- when it was touched by someone you don’t like;
- if they have not been used for a long time.
In addition to energy cleansing, do not forget to care for the stones. At a minimum, wipe them with a damp, dry cloth after each use. Then it will always be perfectly clean.
