Comprehensive Scaling, Root Planing & Polishing Services

Scaling and root planing is a deep cleaning treatment designed to remove plaque and tartar buildup from above and below the gum line. It is commonly recommended for patients with gum disease, bleeding gums, or excessive tartar accumulation. Root planing smooths the tooth roots, making it more difficult for bacteria to collect and helping the gums heal properly.

Dental polishing is the final step that removes minor surface stains and smooths the teeth, leaving your smile feeling clean, fresh, and brighter. Together, these treatments help prevent gum disease, improve oral hygiene, and support long-term dental health.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is scaling and root planing?

Scaling and root planing is a deep cleaning procedure that removes plaque, tartar, and bacteria from the teeth and below the gum line. The roots of the teeth are then smoothed to encourage the gums to heal and reattach properly, helping prevent the progression of gum disease.

The treatment is generally comfortable and is often performed with local anesthesia when necessary. Some patients may experience mild sensitivity or tenderness afterward, but these symptoms are temporary and usually improve within a few days.

A deep cleaning may be recommended if you have signs of gum disease such as bleeding gums, swollen gums, persistent bad breath, or significant tartar buildup. Early treatment can help prevent more serious dental problems and protect your long-term oral health.

Dental polishing is a procedure that smooths the surface of your teeth and removes minor stains after cleaning. It leaves your teeth feeling clean and refreshed while improving the appearance of your smile.

The frequency depends on your oral health and individual needs. Many patients benefit from professional cleanings every six months, while those with gum disease may require more frequent visits as recommended by their dentist.

After treatment, your teeth and gums may feel cleaner and smoother. Some patients experience mild sensitivity for a short period, but this typically resolves quickly. Maintaining good oral hygiene and attending regular dental visits will help preserve the results of your treatment.
