A method includes placing a double barrel syringe into a dispensing gun. The method also includes using the dispensing gun to place a composition of paste A and paste B within the double barrel syringe through a mixing tip onto a tooth surface and interproximal areas along a gumline and/or subgingival areas. The composition softens and aids in removal of dental calculus, tarter, and/or plaque on one or more areas of the tooth surface that require cleaning. The method also includes rinsing the one or more areas of the tooth surface to enable the cleaning to begin.
