Scaling and Root Planing is a deep cleaning treatment used to combat gum disease by removing plaque and tartar buildup below the gumline. This non-surgical procedure smooths the root surfaces to promote healing and prevent bacteria from reattaching. If you’re experiencing bleeding gums, bad breath, or gum recession, deep cleaning may be the right solution. Early treatment with scaling and root planing can help stop periodontal disease and protect your oral health. Schedule an evaluation with our dental team today.
