Restore the health of your gums and teeth with our deep cleaning services, a crucial step for patients experiencing signs of gum disease or extensive plaque buildup. Our dentist and skilled dental team are experts in performing thorough cleanings, ensuring both your comfort and the effectiveness of the treatment. Deep cleaning, also known as scaling and root planing, goes beyond regular dental cleanings to address bacteria, plaque and tartar below the gum line, a vital measure for preventing the progression of gum disease.
Deep cleanings are recommended for those showing early signs of gum disease, such as swollen, bleeding gums, or for those with significant tartar accumulation. This specialized cleaning process involves two main steps: scaling, to remove plaque and tartar from below the gumline and root planing, to smooth out the roots of your teeth, helping your gums reattach to your teeth more effectively.
What to expect during your deep cleaning appointment:
- Personalized Consultation: An initial examination to assess the extent of gum disease or plaque buildup and discuss the deep cleaning process.
- Targeted Treatment: Scaling and root planing performed with advanced dental tools, focusing on areas beneath the gum line to remove harmful bacteria and deposits.
- Comfort Measures: Options for local anesthesia or sedation to ensure a comfortable, pain-free experience.
- Aftercare Guidance: Personalized advice on maintaining your oral health post-treatment, including proper brushing and flossing techniques.
Benefits of deep cleanings include:
- Halting Gum Disease: Effectively stops the progression of gum disease, protecting against tooth loss and other serious health issues.
- Improved Oral Health: Removes plaque and tartar buildup, leading to healthier gums and fresher breath.
- Disease Prevention: Reduces the risk of future dental problems and contributes to overall health by minimizing the risk of bacteria entering the bloodstream.
- Enhanced Comfort: Alleviates symptoms associated with gum disease, such as tenderness, swelling and bleeding.
