Scaling & Root Planing - The First Treatment for Early Stages of Periodontal Disease
-
Scaling and Root Planing is the first treatment for periodontal disease. It removes all the irritants under the gums to eliminate inflamation and infection. Half of the mouth is numbed so that the hygienist can comfortably remove hardened food and plaque from below the gums. This is called scaling and it's like removing the scales from a fish. Most hygienists also use ultrasonic vibrating tools to blast deposits off of teeth.

- Restoring the health of teeth and gums is the science of periodontal disease therapy. The infection of the gums and supportive tissues surrounding the teeth (periodontal disease) can be controlled and in some cases even reversed. Working as a treatment team with your general dentist, we can help restore your mouth to a healthier condition and improve the chance of preserving your teeth
