Dental Deep Cleanings: Restore and Protect Your Gum Health

Dental deep cleanings are an effective treatment designed to remove harmful bacteria and buildup beneath the gumline, helping to restore gum health and prevent the progression of gum disease. This specialized procedure goes beyond a routine cleaning to protect both your gums and the supporting structures of your teeth.

What Is a Dental Deep Cleaning?

A dental deep cleaning, also known as scaling and root planing, targets plaque and tartar that accumulate below the gumline. By thoroughly cleaning these areas and smoothing the tooth roots, the procedure helps your gums heal and reattach to your teeth.

When Is a Deep Cleaning Needed?

You may benefit from a dental deep cleaning if you experience:

• Bleeding, swollen, or tender gums
• Persistent bad breath
• Gum recession
• Deep pockets between the teeth and gums
• Signs of gum disease
