Brief Answer:
Use desensitizing tooth paste

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thanks for writing in.

I would like to tell you that sensitivity after scaling is very common complaint.
You need to use desensitizing tooth paste containing potassium nitrate.
These pastes block the dentinal tubules & relieve sensitivity.
If problem persists consult your dentist.
Maintain proper oral hygiene by proper brushing.

Hope I answered your query

Wishing you good health

Regards
