Restore Gum Health with Scaling & Root Planing
If you’ve been diagnosed with gum disease, one of the most effective initial treatments is scaling and root planing. This deep cleaning procedure targets harmful bacteria, plaque, and tartar buildup to stop the progression of periodontal disease and restore your oral health.
Scaling and root planing involves two key steps:
✔ Scaling – Plaque and tartar are carefully removed from the tooth surfaces, including below the gumline.
✔ Root Planing – The tooth roots are smoothed to eliminate bacteria and promote gum reattachment for faster healing.
Most treatments can be completed without anesthesia, though numbing options are available for your comfort. Depending on the severity of your condition, we may recommend completing the procedure in multiple appointments for thorough care.
For optimal results, your treatment may be combined with antibiotic therapy or other periodontal treatments.
