Deep dental cleaning, also known as scaling and root planing, is a dental procedure that is used to treat gum disease. It involves removing plaque and tartar from below the gum line and smoothing the surface of the tooth roots to prevent further buildup.
During a deep dental cleaning procedure, the dentist or dental hygienist will use special tools to remove plaque and tartar from the tooth surfaces and below the gum line. This may require the use of local anesthesia to ensure the patient’s comfort during the procedure.
After the plaque and tartar have been removed, the dentist or dental hygienist will smooth the surface of the tooth roots to prevent further buildup and help the gums reattach to the teeth. In some cases, antibiotics or other medications may be used to help control infection and promote healing.
Deep dental cleaning is usually performed in stages, with each quadrant of the mouth treated separately over several appointments. The procedure can take several hours, depending on the extent of the buildup and the severity of the gum disease. After a dental cleaning, patients may experience some sensitivity or discomfort for several days, but this can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain medication. It’s important to follow proper oral hygiene practices, including brushing and flossing regularly, to prevent the buildup of plaque and tartar in the future.
