Your Trusted Team for Deep Cleaning

Deep cleaning is a dental procedure that is used to treat gum disease. It focuses on removing plaque from the teeth and gumline and targets any buildup below the gumline near the roots.

If you want to avoid periodontal or gingivitis, reduce inflammation and prevent tooth loss, deep cleaning is the perfect procedure for this.

Deep cleaning involves two main steps: scaling and root planing.

What is Scaling?

Scaling is the process of removing plaque and bacteria from the teeth below the gumline, along the root. 

This is a vital step in reducing the chance of infection and inflammation.

What is Root Planing?

Root planing involves smoothing the root of the tooth to remove cementum and an uneven surface. It also promotes healing and prevents bacteria from colonizing in the future.

Deep cleaning is useful for anybody who might be experiencing bleeding gums, persistent bad breath, or suffering from inflammation.

Scaling and root planing can also result in a more aesthetically pleasing mouth by removing stains and reducing bad breath. 

Periodontal disease is an infection of the gums that in time end up destroying the natural tooth. It affects the tissue and can cause plaque-induced inflammation. This is similar to gingivitis which is a less serious case, but can progress into periodontitis if untreated.
