No it is very hard. It has to be cleaned and polished by dentist.

hi Lybrate user, Tartar and plaque deposits in your mouth r due to poor oral hygiene maintanence,reasons could be many. There is no home remedy for it to be removed at this stage. Go for scaling. After that u can maintain oral hygiene by home remedies. thanks.
